When you lose body fat it comes from EVERYWHERE, INCLUDING your face. When you lose 20+ pouns, as he must have done to get his body fat % that LOW, then it REALLY shows in the face.

His face is just less chunky. I didn't think he looked like he had a nose job when I saw him, I thought he looked cracked out (see whitney), lol. A result of the lost weight.

I agree!! Sometimes people don't want to give credit where credit is due. I am into fitness (although you don't have to be, to know this)....and you are so right...when you lose body fat, it does come from everywhere!!!

Soror, I really wish you would quit implying that I am not giving LL his just due. I am also into fitness and last I checked, losing 20lbs or so, the fat tends to come off everywhere, but not THE NOSE!!!

I will leave it alone. I would be interested in what LL is indeed doing as it pertains to his fitness/health regimen. I still wouldn't doubt that he's had some work done...sorry if that offends or hurts my sistahs who just don't see it that way

I just finished watching LL's video and I think I have to concur with my soror, Deltabrat, that LL may have had some work done. I would have never noticed it, but his nose is smaller and more pointed. He used to have a full, healthy nose but it's not like that anymore.

He actually lost 35 pounds which would have an impact on his face, nose included - even though men don't get pregnant ask any woman that has had a baby if weight changes show up on your nose!! But, I think you are both right, he's lost a lot of weight, most of which was fat and he has had some work. I say more power to him and anyone else that does it to fine tune their face, if the knife can give you what nature didn't, go for it!

I thought this was pretty interesting, so I went to LL's website.
He has pics from back in the day as well as recent photos. If he has had some work done, it's VERY good. I myself think his nose is like that due to his weight loss. If you look at his older pics, you can see that his nose, as well as the rest of his face is a lot chunkier. But if you look at the pics from today, his entire face is a lot thinner and more defined.

Check him out for yourselves:

I believe LL had a nose job. The reason I say this is because, when LL first came out (the days of Rock the Bells), he was very small (smaller than he is now), but his nose was still wide and full. Over the years, he started putting on weight, but his nose still remained the same. Now, his nose is longer, and a littler slimmer. It's now a completely different shape.

Losing weight can only make your nose shrink, or get larger, but it cannot make a nose completely change it's shape, which is the case of LL. I was even watching one of his movies, where he plays a DJ, and his nose was wide and full. It was a completely different shape from what it is now. I say he has a nose job.

But who cares about his nose. He gets two thumbs up for the total package.

I don't think those are Halle Berry's real teeth. They are too straight and they are too big.

I think Bobby Brown could stand to have a little work done. He looks horrible.

I was just thinking the same thing this morning. They don't look natural at all.

ChaosDST · #24 11-26-2002, 07:27 PM

it isn't rare for celebrities and noncelebs to have work done on their teeth in terms of implants and having them sawed evenly for that "dentures look."

i knew about toni braxton's nose job, it was extremely obvious. i was tired of her caking on the nose makeup trying to make her nose look smaller...if a smaller nose is what she wanted...uh ok.

no one mentioned this, but I wonder exactly HOW MUCH work J-Lo's had done. we know the white people made her lose that weight and stuff. besides that, look at her NOSE when she was a Fly Girl versus when she was Selena versus NOW. They could just be caking up the make-up (like they did for Toni) but a few other people have concluded that she's had work done, too.

As for LL...mmmmmmm...if he had a nose job, he sucks...but whether or not he's had one...HE'S FINE!

DELTABRAT · #25 11-26-2002, 08:38 PM

I'm feelin' you on the J-Lo vibe as well. I am aware that they can apply make up so as to make the nose appear to be more narrow but I would also venture to say that J Lo has had a thing or two altered.

As for Ms. Berry's teeth...I saw her on E the other night and I was thinking the same thing. I wonder if she recently had something done which is why suddenly people are taking notice. The suddenly do look real big and even and all...like bigger than in her more recent movies (i.e. Swordfish).

Do we need to talk about Jacko and the band-aid though?

Denzel has also had major caps put on his teeth. Look at his some of his earlier work (Carbon Copy and the Wilma Rudolph Story) and the smile is quite different.

Speaking of Bobby Brown and his need for some work. I was watching Two Can play that Game the other night and almost threw up when ol' girl Principal Grier from the Steve Harvey show talked about how she got his teeth fixed! I was screaming "Get yo' money back, girl!!" LOL

I do remember J.Lo being real thick on In Living Color.

Janet Jackson was really big on the "Nutty Professor 2" and on the video "Doesn't really matter" then the next time she came out she was a size 0 and it was only a couple of months later. She doesn't really talk about weight problem either. She really has gone too far with all that plastic surgery.

I'm glad Tyra Banks has stop coming her a$$ on Oprah lying talking about those are her real boobs.

Oprah has had some work done too! Although she still looks horrible with out that make-up. I can't beleive she lets them tape her looking like that.

Girl, you and me both. Even Stevie Wonder could see that those are not hers. One time, she even had her mother on there talking bout some "Tyra was a late bloomer." Yeah, a real late bloomer, she bloomed at 22 when she had the money to get the surgery.

DELTABRAT · #29 11-27-2002, 12:45 PM

Yeah. why not just be honest. Celebrities have the luxury of being out of the spotlight until the swelling/pain/bruising goes down/away. Unfortunately people don't realize all the pain (especially psychologically) that comes as a result and go out and try some sh%$ and wonder why people stare at them with the black eyes/bloody nostrils, etc. It's like that episode of Sex and the City when Samantha got a chemical peel. It's all good if you have an assistant to go out and by your food/get your clothes out of the cleaners, etc., but in real life...

I know I've brought up and old thread, but I was wondering... was there ever a final consensus on LL? And is it just me or did Sanaa Lathan get some work done on her boobs?
