CNN's Heidi Collins, the beautiful redhaired anchorperson in the morning, had her eyes reshaped.

At least, that's what I think happened.

I didn't even recognize her. Why do plastic surgeons do that?

I loved her "real" look. I can't get used to her "new" look.

Tell me you noticed it...

1. nope, sorry

didn't notice.

If I was a tv watching kind of person, I might have; the linked page says she was an anchor in Denver; but I never saw her on tv. :shrug:

Do you have a "before" picture of her? Or an "after"? Since I've never seen her, I don't know which this pic would be...

I was drawn into the thread by "...beautiful redhaired..." :)

:hi:

4. I tried to look for photos that show a before and after, but can't find them.

I just know that she didn't have a "hollow" above her eyes before and now she does.

I think Heidi Collins is stunning, and she deserves all kind of compliments for her voice and poise -- and I think about all the plastic surgery work that has been done on Barbara Walters, who also looks pretty damned good for a woman in her 70s. I worked around the corner from her in the 1960s. She was with the "Today Show" unit; I worked for the "Tonight Show" with Johnny Carson, before that group moved to Burbank, California.

Sometimes I think about plastic surgery, then I see someone who looks like a zombie and I say, "Forget it!"

6. I also went looking

and presumably found some "before" photos, but nothing really showed her very well for comparative purposes. Having looked at a couple dozen photos, she does seem to have a "surprised" look to her eyes.

8. My husband's classic answer when he sees Carol Burnett is..

"Who the hell is that?"

And then there's Joan Rivers.

A couple of men who I'm sure have had their eyelids nipped: Joe Scarborough and Tim Russert. I can pick 'em out a mile away.

2. yep

she looked like bill o'reilly's twin before.

5. Bill O'Reilly used to be on TV in Boston. I lived there, but didn't watch him.

I still don't.

3. Not sure about her eyes, but I love her hair!

I took her picture to my hair stylist once and she did a pretty good job copying it. Unfortunately I could never get it to look like that on my own!

7. Highlighting on naturally red hair is very difficult. Some people come out

with zebra stripes. In general, I think the women of CNN look quite good and I can't say any one of them really bothers me. It just shows what a wonderful pool of young women have come along since I started in television in 1957 in a local, live children's show in Miami, Florida.

9. She used to work here in Colorado...

she looks about the same to me now.

Of course that could just be me not paying attention, who knows?
