Yesterday, the reality show 'The Swan' was on. You know, where 2 girls per episode played out their sad, who-could-blame-them life stories out and begged for a new chance in life by the way of plastic surgery. Their mantra is without plastic surgery, they can't renew their lives and have a happy ending whatsoever. So, la la la, off they went for extensive plastic surgery and came out looking nothing like their former self.
I wish I could praise a show like that. It idolises plastic surgery and made plastic surgery so positive, so desirable. It is like, if you have plastic surgery, you could wipe your life story clean and start all over again! Voila! Pain and bitterness all gone.
Let's be logical here. Yes, perhaps you could look more toned and uplifted (whether by the breast augmentation or their 'Swan' life coaches, he he) and I am totally supportive of the tummy tuck which look really great on all the women, but, but, do all the women need brow lift or face lift? Do they need to look perpetually surprised all their life? No doubt change is good, but to change yourself physically until everyone of your family members who came on the show and gushed,'Ohh! I could not recognise you!' does not brood well. You don't want your life to be totally transformed until you have to change your person, personality and outlook on life (which is, whatever happens to you, plastic surgery can change anything).
I am so surprised at my change! or this is how I am going to look like for the rest of my life?
I don't think this is healthy and I don't encourage The Swan show to glamourise plastic surgery. Just look at all the casts; the host, the life coaches, the trainers. All of them looked plastic-surgeried. I say, NO, to plastic surgery. But of course, if anyone is kind enough to sponsor a tummy tuck for me, I can hardly refuse. Ha ha!
