It’s no secret in Washington that many politicians look a bit more “refreshed” (the latest buzzword for plastic surgery) these days. But of course no one wants to talk about it. One of the most visible members of Congress—the glamorous grandma—Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi is turning 69 today, yet everybody is still whispering about her dewy eyes and seamless features.
In the gossipy world of political plastics, there’s Joe Biden’s hair and smooth cheeks, Hillary’s firm jawline, and Arnold’s granite-like brow—all subject to “refreshed” speculation. No pol wants an “Oh, my God, do I look like that?” moment, especially not in the glare of high-def TV, never mind the onslaught of new, young administration types. Bob and Elizabeth Dole had major lifts several years ago—he began sprucing up when he made those Viagra ads. (The president and Michelle are too young to go under the knife, but that didn’t stop several leading surgeons from telling me they’d love to pin back his ears!)
When I called to discuss all of this with a number of top doctors, I got the same reaction as when I did a story for the New York Times magazine on psychiatry in Washington in the ’80s. The scalpel was taboo. It remains deep in the closet. And while all were willing to talk about various procedures, they stressed confidentiality and froze when asked to name names or go on the record. What to make of Nancy’s look? Classic anonymous response: “She’s so cosmetically surgeon-ed, I wish she didn’t look so good. It would be more natural,” sniffs one well-known D.C. practitioner.

Good job....Doc!
...while the normal people are shouting from rooftops: "Go back to San Fran you commie ...
I take offense to that, thank you very much. :D
Well, that explains the puffy lumps below her eyes...
Behold the Wicked Witch of Socialism; the Queen of Tyranny!!
The first step is to admit that you have a problem.
You could call it "getting alcohol related" if that makes it easier.
Crist and Angelo Mozilo must go to the same salon.
Who does Tina Brown?
I’d like to know how she gets 69 year old hair looking like it came off an 18 year old.
Is it a wig?
Did Stevie Wonder start moonlighting as a plastic surgeon?
Look behind her ears or a few inches back in her hairline.
If "everybody can't find the seams, "everybody" isn't looking very hard.
Crikey! What’s with the eyesocket craters? You could keep a dozen homeless guys dry in a rainstorm with those sunken chasms. Sorry, but that looks really unhealthy and scary. Can you imagine waking up next to that face without make-up on? {{{shudder}}}
Be careful whom you insult.
She is a hard core conservative.
LOL. She is such a pig.
BTW heck of a screenane you have.
That is what we said last time she was tightened up. She must have had a Brazilian Bikini wax done after her last visit.
I'd insult my mama if her ears flapped when she talked..........
Just because Rivers is an alleged conservative doesn't exempt her from being published in the book of "Horrible Hollywood Face Lifts"...........
