Joan Rivers is uniquely qualified to talk about plastic surgery — because she's one of the few celebrities unafraid to admit to the world what she's "had done" to keep looking so great. Now, with no-holds-barred, she gives women straight-talking advice on better living through looking better. Joan Rivers's abiding life philosophy is simple: in the appearance-centric society of the twenty-first century, beauty is key — especially where men are concerned. Men like pretty women. And so, getting something lifted, tightened, adjusted, or removed is as fundamental as wearing makeup or using hair conditioner. Now, for any woman considering her options, Joan Rivers takes the mystery out of cosmetic surgery. Informed by the country's top plastic surgeons, she takes listeners step-by-step through the entire process, from finding the right doctor to the bruising truth about recovery and the facts about cosmetic surgery's very real risks. But don't worry — there's dish, too. Men Are Stupid...And They Like Big Boobs is rife with Hollywood gossip about who's done what and how often...and is filled with Rivers's personal anecdotes about life under the knife. Part comic musing, part bitch-fest, and part hands-on advice, this is a funny, wildly frank, and genuinely passionate argument for a woman's right to do whatever it takes to be beautiful, to feel better about herself, and be happy. Take it from the woman who enjoys having it all — done. Publishers Weekly The Rivers brand of comedy, celebrity gossip, fashion commentary and motivational chutzpa so beloved by her fans is on full display in this guide to elective plastic surgery. As a reader, Rivers embodies the "Can we talk?" accessibility of her standup persona, never missing an opportunity for a colorful pun or punch line. Still, she projects authority when imparting medical advice about cosmetic procedures, particularly the importance of selecting a reputable physician and following protocols for after-care and recovery. Her guide spans wrinkle removals to various aesthetic enhancements to female genitalia. Rivers's candor offends and endears with equal measure, and her irreverent treatment deserves credit for offering guidance from health professionals. A Simon & Schuster hardcover.
