Sunday night Blake and I joined our friends Paul and Jason at the London Palladium to see Joan Rivers in concert. She recycled a lot of her old jokes and put a fresh spin on them (like Madonna with her new British accent). Joan was as entertaining as I expected but, LORD, she looked like a skeleton in a blonde wig. I'm not sure how she's held together anymore. She did a bit about how people owe it to themselves to have plastic surgery and thereby look good because looks are the only thing that matters. Now I certainly am not one to talk about someone's self image but does she really think that what she's done to herself looks good?

My friend Jim says she's looks Asian now ... I think she looks like Jocelyne Wildenstein (that woman who had surgery to make herself look like a cat). These days everybody seems to be getting into the plastic surgery thing. Look at Meg Ryan and Loretta Swit.

Of course if it makes them happy then good for them but at what point do they cross the line between trying to improve their self image and becoming obsessed with it? If you have enough plastic surgery does it make you a new person?
