I just don't get it!

Teenage daughter is a big Kardashian fan. I don't watch it but it's often on when I'm jobbing about in the house or whatever, so have become fairly familiar with one or two of the people on it. What I don't get is the husband Bruce (?) Jenner . It wasn't apparent at first but just lately it's become very apparent he has had quite a bit of cosmetic surgery, and daughter tells me he has just had some more to reduce the size of his adams apple!

I know it's an awful thing to say but he genuinely reminds me of a burns victim. Just what do these people see when they look in the mirror? What is so wrong with their images that they think that what they have done is an improvement? I find it amazing that the more they have the more they begin to look like each other. Him, Joan Rivers and Pete Burns could all be mistaken for siblings!

It is entirely up to them of course, but I just don't get it. Why can't people leave their faces alone?

I heard on Radio 4 this week that cosmetic surgery increases significantly in 2013, with 9 out 10 being women and the majority of procedures being for breast augmentation.

 

The reasons, celeb culture and the medias image of what a person should look like.

88b-how can you say that all American TV is BS?-you obviously missed the epic scene in 19 kids and counting last week so let me just remind you....."Jim's in-laws are dropping by for lunch so we had to move the table away from the sideboard!"-the mother explains to the camera like its breaking news-a moments silence follows and then they are both seated and facing the camera-Jim continues...."Yep-we had to move the table away from the sideboard". Can TV get any better 88b? What do you want? Clowns driving cars?(that started again on Sunday)

Bruno my wife watches most of this total ******** which is why there are so many TVs in our house . I think you need to get into the real housewives of Orange County soon to be renamed back stabbers of Orange County . If that's too realistic for you perhaps Ice road truckers where every two minutes a truck might fall through the ice ( so far one hasn't ). Then there's the buying houses where they find the repossessed place has been trashed. Or perhaps the storage wars , I think East Enders is more realistic.
About the only one I've found interesting is American Pickers and that's got old now.

I don't get it either, I don't really watch telly at all anymore (the only thing I sit down to watch is Charlie Brooker's Weekly Wipe) but my wife likes odd stuff like "Diners, Dives and Drive-ins", which as far as I can tell is about a bloke who eats burgers, eating burgers- a bit like Man v Food but without the drama.

I remember when Tony Curtis made an appearance after a long time out of the public eye. The surgeon took a good looking fella (for his age) and turned him into a mess and of course we had everyone's favourite................Michael Jackson.

 

Doubt if cosmetic surgery would improve my visage..............its never been that good, sort of lived in.
