Last week, Vicki Gunvalson of the Real Housewives of Orange County (I almost wrote “Orange Surgery,” I swear) premiered her new, “settled” plastic surgery on Watch What Happens Live. I thought she looked better, and many of you noted in the comments that this was plastic surgery on top of plastic surgery, it’s not like it was the first time she’d had something done. In this round, Vicki admitted to an eyelift, fat transfer to her face, a new nose and a new chin. In still photos, she looked improved to me, although on camera her face was nearly immobile and somewhat plastic. Some of you said her chin implant looked wonky and off center.
Vicki admitted that she had (additional) work done because she was feeling self conscious after some cast members nicknamed her “Miss Piggy,” and that she found it hurtful. In a follow-up interview, Vicki defended herself against people who said she didn’t need to get anything done. She also seemed to equate plastic surgery with diet and exercise, which is kind of telling.
The Real Housewives of Orange County star, 51 – who recently debuted her new cosmetically altered face – opened up about her new look and discussed how Tamra Barney left her feeling hurt in a new interview with OK!.
“Most people say it looks good, some people say you shouldn’t have done anything, you were beautiful before,” Gunvalson, who recently became a grandmother, said about the transformation.
“It’s done, it’s over with, it’s finished.”
However, despite the surgery, Gunvalson said she feels like she looks almost the same.
“I don’t feel like I look much different. But I’ll do whatever I have to do to keep looking my best whether it’s working out, eating healthy, getting a tweak. It’s my body. I’ll do whatever I want.”
Well I like how she responded to that, she was like “whatever, it’s my body.” I don’t really know much about this lady as I don’t watch RHOC, but I like how she came clean about her plastic surgery and how she addressed critics. She seems like a nice person, and like she’s vulnerable but doesn’t wallow or take too much crap. Maybe I’m wrong though, I mean she’s on reality television, how “nice” can she be?
Vicki also talked about her feud with Tamra Barney, saying that she didn’t talk to her for a long time and that she feels bad about it but is keeping it in perspective. “I have to separate the two. One is TV and one is reality. My real life is not that dysfunctional.” I thought that was pretty wise. Maybe I’m being hoodwinked, but she seems cool – for a Real Housewife. That’s a big qualifier.
