Rose McGowan plays a doctor on this season of “Nip/Tuck,” but it appears the actress may have gone under the knife herself. During the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art’s 30th anniversary gala over the weekend, onlookers were shocked to see the barely recognizable actress sporting a taut, puffy face. McGowan, 36, has admitted to having plastic surgery in the past after a frightening car accident in which her sunglasses had smashed onto her face.
“I didn’t realize I was hurt until I put my hand to my face and felt the flap of skin,” she recalled. “My glasses had sliced me under my eye.” To restore her Hollywood good looks, McGowan says she found a plastic surgeon to repair the damage. However by the looks of things, it appears as though she kept the doctor on speed dial. Though she has four new movies in the works, McGowan, who recently finished working on ex-fiance Robert Rodriguez’s new movie “Machete,” may want to consider easing up on her changing look. The actress reportedly lost a role to Christina Ricci in 2007’s “Speed Racer” because of her appearance.
“The studio felt like she was hard to recognize and worried that by the time the movie hit theaters, fans might not know who she was,” a source told the Daily News at the time.
Fast forward two years and the actress is barely recognizable now.
