It seems that more and more people of various ages and ethnicities are going to great lengths to attain beauty. Just weeks ago, hip-hop star Kanye West's mother, Donda West, died suddenly, shocking the entertainment world. Although an official cause of death hasn't been released, the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office has said it was likely due to complications from the surgery involving tummy tuck and breast reduction procedures. Others have speculated that West's death may have been caused by other health-related problems, but her surgeon has confirmed that she had, in fact, undergone cosmetic surgery. It would be tragic if her death did, indeed, result from the operations. So who determines what is beautiful -- the media, society, magazines, music videos, or does the majority rule? Too often, we allow others to dictate what is beautiful. For example, someone who resembles Halle Berry may be considered beautiful. But who has determined that her attributes are desirable?
Janice Dickinson, who has claimed to be the world's first supermodel, has confirmed the extent of her plastic surgery. The owner of the internationally-known Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency in her second book, "Everything About Me Is Fake and I Am Perfect," enumerates and diagrams her "enhancements." In the book, she talks freely about having chemical peels, eye bag removals, dermabrasions, Botox injections, eyelid surgery, rhytidectomy (surgical removal of wrinkles), cheek implants, laser hair removal, jowl removal, hair extensions, porcelain veneers, and breast lifts and implants. Dickinson said, "I'm not addicted to plastic surgery. But I need it. I couldn't have that chicken neck thing going on, so I had a neck lift. And I had a brow lift and got my eyes done. Everything is fake about me - my tits, teeth, hair, nails -- and I'm just perfect."
