Why Jamie Lee Curtis Is Taking a Digital Detox

Cosmetic Surgery Confessions

For Curtis, a negative comment from a cinematographer while filming the 1985 movie Perfect alongside John Travolta resulted in an eye-opening experience with cosmetic procedures.

“He was like, ‘Yeah I’m not shooting her today. Her eyes are baggy,” she said on 60 minutes in May. “I was 25. For him to say that was very embarrassing. So as soon as the movie finished, I ended up having some plastic surgery.”

“That’s just not what you want to do when you’re 25 or 26,” she continued, “I regretted it immediately and have sort of regretted it since.”

And it influenced the way she views cosmetic enhancements.

“I’ve become a really public advocate,” Curtis explained, “to say to women, ‘You’re gorgeous and you’re perfect the way you are,’ so,…oh yeah. It was not a good thing for me to do.”
