| Aniston's publicist slams nose job story
Jennifer Aniston's publicist has slammed new reports his client has had plastic surgery on her nose, after the actress was spotted leaving the offices of a top cosmetic clinic. Stephen Huvane tells Wenn that various publications, which are set to run with speculation the former Friends star has had a new nose-job, are spouting "nonsense". The Hollywood publicist insists writers are making too much of Aniston's visit to the Beverly Hills office of plastic surgeon Dr Raj Kanodia on Saturday (20Jan07). Life & Style reports in its upcoming issue that Aniston spent over four hours at the surgery, and covered her nose with her hands when she realised photographers were snapping her when she came out. A source tells the magazine, "I was told she had a full rhinoplasty." But an angry Huvane says, "For the most part, this story is complete rubbish.
Kelly Osbourne thinks her mother Sharon has taken her plastic ...
Sharon has had several cosmetic procedures - including a face lift, tummy tuck, neck lift and a boob job - and has regular Botox injections, but her daughter thinks it makes her look odd sometimes. Kelly told Britain's The Times newspaper: 'Sometimes mum has gone too far with the Restylane and Botox and ended up looking extremely surprised. 'The first time she had plastic surgery she didn't know how to explain it to us kids - we've got big mouths and she didn't want us to go around saying, 'Mummy's had a facelift', so she told us she was in an accident. That freaked us out so she had to explain.' It seems Kelly has had a change of heart about mum Sharon's surgery. Last week, she insisted she was so impressed with her mother's boob job she couldn't wait to go under the knife herself. She said: 'I'm already planning my surgery.
Mayor's 'revolutionary' plan fights drugs with drugs
Vancouver Mayor Sam Sullivan is promoting a bold but divisive plan that will put substitute drugs in the hands of hundreds of addicts to wean them off illegal substances such as crystal meth and cocaine. Still in its early stages, the strategy — which Sullivan calls "revolutionary" — could evolve into a clinical trial involving at least 700 addicts if Sullivan wins approval from Ottawa to get started. But there will likely be roadblocks. The move would require exemption from Canada's narcotics laws for the drug abusers. Still, Sullivan argues the harm-reduction approach might work, just as it seemed to work in the case of Vancouver's so-called safe injection site in reducing overdose deaths and lowering the spread of HIV. "You know, if you separate the people who are really ill with addictions — separate those from the people who are causing all kinds of public crime and havoc — we might be able to go somewhere," Sullivan said.
