Lights, Camera, Action! Hollywood is known for the glamour, the beauty, the popularity, the fame! To make it big in Hollywood, you have to talk the talk and walk the walk. Besides having a mesmerizing voice, incredible acting skills, or an eye for fashion, you have to have the look. By having the look, you gain popularity and fame.

But what does it mean to “have the look”? Well, “the look” is mostly made up of plastic surgeries, something that may serve well those in Hollywood but won’t serve well those in the general public who look up to certain people in Hollywood.

Many famous celebrities have had tons of plastic surgeries. The perfect example would be Michael Jackson. The King of Pop was a victim of plastic surgery. Besides the fact that he supposedly had a skin disorder, he had way too many surgeries.

As for his skin, I think that it changed more because of a cosmetic procedure rather than his disorder. The disorder would have affected certain parts of his skin but not his whole body; therefore, I think he did something to change the color of his skin.

It’s not right to change so much of your physical appearance. People get obsessed with celebrities and how perfect they look, such that they try becoming like them through plastic surgeries. No one is perfect. You lose your originality and uniqueness.

Many people praise “the look” as if there is nothing else besides that. Don’t let Hollywood get inside your head. Everyone does not need cosmetic surgery to be pretty. Everyone is beautiful just the way they are.

Stay sweet,
