She told Hoda Kotb on the Today evidence in 2013 (via Us Weekly), "Hither's the story: 25 years agone, I had my lips injected with silicone. Stupid matter to do at 24. I saw Beaches. I did it with my all-time girlfriend, so she and I go and we get our lips washed. Fine. I accept it like that for my whole career, right? So then cut to a couple of years ago, I have a doc remove as much every bit they maybe tin considering it got to the indicate where they were yucky. They go hard. It'southward gross. They are now whatever that was after they took out as much of the silicone every bit they could."

Let'due south exist clear: The biggest reason behind the decline of Ashlee Simpson's career was being busted lip syncing on Saturday Night Live in 2004, prompting the hoedown that went downwardly in history. The second biggest reason is likely the fact that her subsequent live performances were so lackluster that she got booed past entire stadiums.

However, the third biggest reason was quite possibly her suddenly smaller nose. In July 2006, Simpson appeared on the comprehend of Marie Claire (via the Los Angeles Times) preaching self-credence. "Everyone is made differently, and that'south what makes us beautiful and unique," she told the magazine. "I want girls to await in the mirror and feel confident."

Information technology'due south a great bulletin, except soon after the effect hit newsstands, she was spotted with a make new nose. Hypocritical much?

On a vanity level, I am not looking frontward to aging at all — I think I await pretty good now."

She's had also much Botox in the brow ... The surgery that most drastically changes the shape of the face is a facelift ... It'southward possible because the shape of her face up has inverse and so much. The texture of her face up too looks different. Information technology looks similar she could have had some sort of light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation pare resurfacing procedure."

The media attention didn't help. "All of the tabloid attending really shook her upwardly," a source toldPeople. "She was securely troubled by it. It contributed to her stepping away [from Hollywood]."
