Which celebrity crush ruined themselves with plastic surgery?

UndercoverGator · February 18th, 2006, 08:57 AM

... of yours from the distant or near past now scares the crap out of you because of the massive amount of plastic surgery they've had and why does it frighten you?

This guy doesn't really qualify as a celebrity persay but when I was 13 I was crazy about the band Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods. One of the lead singers was named Rick Joswick and he was a cutie back around the mid 70s, blonde and gorgious in a surfer sort of way. Recently I found Rick online, his website and instead of an aged surfer boy he's now morphed into scary plastic surgeryland. I guess the surgery must now be officially cheap enough for even borderline musicians to afford. Where he had a natural looking face he has a taut fright mask at his mid-50s. The worst are the batwing eyebrows and the horrid dye job on the brows and hair. He looks evil. I'll see if I can line up some pictures and post them here. Friends who've followed the same guys have confirmed this is indeed him, so I know it's the same guy unfortunately. I'd never guess just from these photos. He's still playing music in the LA area.

Here are the befores and afters.

Melanie Griffith. I'm afraid to see her naked now. Oh, the horror....

Mickey Rourke. He was so hot in movies like "Diner" but now?

Jameson Parker from 'Simon and Simon'....I still get excited when I hear the theme song (they played it on the 80's channel on Sirius).

Here he is back in the day:

I may not have been very alive during his heyday, but Axl Rose.

OMG..I have never seen a recent pic of him..he almost looks Tom Skerrit-like!
Damn I feel old now!
Is this look from too much PS(or just getting older?)

I agree. Axl was hot and now he's scary!

I agree with Sojiita completely.

Mickey Rourke is the saddest case of PS I have EVER seen

He went from HOT to MONSTER

I highly doubt he's had PS, but maybe--he doesn't seem the type and he sure as hell isn't looking good, so if he has, he needs more! I didn't realize this thread was specifically about PS and aging crushes when I posted it....oops sorry!
The really sad part: That was one of the BETTER recent pictures of him! He's got this cowboy thing going and he's now an author! I spent like an hour just looking at pictures of him and reading various websites devoted to Simon & Simon. It was fun, yet, very sad......
I feel old too!! He was HAWT back in the day and he just looks NOT now...

I used to have a big crush on Dustin Hoffman when I was a little girl.

Another Mickey Rourke for me too. He definately looks like lizard man now.

Wasn't Micky Rourke's PS reconstructive? I thought he was in a motorcycle accident or something???

I have to agree about Axl Rose. At 14, I wanted to do inappropriate things with him. Now, he's frightening.

About Mickey Rourke...

I just watched Domino yesterday and he looked a lot better. I don't know if it was the film editing, makeup, shadows...whatever it was, it worked. He looked significantly less freakish.
