Did King get plastic surgery?

[Jimmy]

I got this link in my email and he looks like he got some work done on his eyes and mouth. He's got the "cat-shaped" eyes thing going on and his lips seem puffy.

He just looks airbrushed to me.

[Daghain]

Airbrushing, maybe? It does look a little weird.

[Jimmy]

I hope it's just airbrushing. Surgery to give yourself cat eyes freaks me out.

[Daghain]

Seen Joan Rivers lately? Now THAT'S scary. :scared:

[Jimmy]

Mickey Rourke scares the piss out of me.

[jayson]

Seen Joan Rivers lately? Now THAT'S scary. :scared:

she looks like claymation.

[Daghain]

OMG that's exactly it! :rofl:

[jayson]

the other one i always think looks like claymation is Little Richard

[Jimmy]

Ok, back on point. King's looking a little more Mickey Rourke'd than airbrushing would allow.

Does anyone know any upcoming appearances that might show whether or not he went up the knife?

He was on the Today show this morning. In the Duma Key thread Bev posted a link to the video from it.

I doubt King had any type of plastic surgery. The aftermath of his accident caused the changes, I'm sure.

[Daghain]

But his face didn't get that injured in that accident, did it?

[Vasagi]

Looks more to me like he's put on some weight. He looks rounder in the cheeks and jowls. That'll smooth out your crow's feet & frown-lines faster than any nip n tuck.

[Letti]

I think he has many "photo-faces". He is not very photogenic and sometimes he can look very weird in pictures.

Thats exactly what I thought too.

I just saw it, and what a FANTASTIC interview it was. It's obvious that just like the rest of us, Mr. King added a few pounds on after the holiday season.

[Lord_Vertigo]

About time he got the weight back. He's looked so frail and skinny since the accident, like he aged 30 years.

He also had some sort of post-recovery viral or bacterial infection, if I'm not mistaken, which forced him to be rehospitalized, and took a lot of weight off.

[Erin]

I agree, whatever he's done he looked so good and healthy on the today show and in that picture Jimmy posted. He was looking pretty gaunt and sickly for ahwhile there due to the accident.

[ATG]

Putting on weight and botox?

[William50]

There is definately something not quite right about the picture. I sure hope he didn't get surgery.

[ZoNeSeeK]

Um

Yes, he's had the "donut" airbrushing, I think :)

[ATG]

I vote " he's had work. "

[Daghain]

If his eyes weren't open, I'd say a funeral director had a go at him. :scared:

[ZoNeSeeK]

Your all such bitches


:D

[Daghain]

Seriously, you haven't seen that look in a coffin before?

Just sayin'.

[ATG]

He's not as bad as Kenny Rogers.

Plastic surgery disaster.

[ATG]

Your all such bitches


:D


I resemble that!

[Ruthful]

Yikes!

That publicity shot-or bookjacket photo-is scary.

Bruce Jenner-type scary.

[Daghain]

I swear he has like 7 layers of makeup on his face. Gives him that waxy look.

[William50]

I agree. He does look waxy! CREEPY.

[LadyHitchhiker]

I vote he needs beard.

[Ruthful]

Facial hair masks any and every unpleasant blemish or unattractive feature.

That's why Abraham Lincoln was our most handsome POTUS.

[Frunobulax]

Not surgery--just some very overdone and bad airbrushing. Note the forehead and directly below the corners of the mouth. Both areas are far too smooth to be plastic surgery.


















Either that or King died and a replacement found at a lookalike contest is now posing as him.

[jhanic]

Whether he did or not, it's his business.

John

[Vasagi]

But in all honesty, SK has more freaky-lookin photos than normal-lookin photos. The guy's just freaky lookin.

I can't remember the last SK photo I've seen where I didn't think to myself "dayum"

[Matt]

Yep, he is a freaky bird for sure. Just the look he gave Matt Laurer on the Today show was enough to understand that. :lol:

Since this thread is purely speculation and not "news" in the classic sense, I am going to move it to a more appropriate forum.

[Ruthful]

Okay, looking at the shot on the book jacket right now I'm not as frightened, but it still does have a Jenneresque quality to it, which is slightly unsettling.

:rofl: You caught me completely off guard with that one! Brava! And quite true!

[Storyslinger]

I'm going on the airbrush train.

[LadyHitchhiker]

You're going to fix his flaws in that picture? I'd like to see it afterwards!

King does have a rather large philtrum.
