The jokes coming out of this should be fun, but in all honesty this is a great thing for her to do publicly. I'm impressed and I really can't think of the last time an actor impressed me other than via acting. Kudos and all that shit. Meanwhile, I have to admit she has now left my spank bank.

Christina Applegate went through the same thing a few years ago.

You obviously have to respect her choice, but it's rather scary how great medicine is that she has to hack off parts of her body to satisfy some odds. Reminiscent of blood letting, no?

And yet she has the immense courage to go through it.

I don't think she's done yet. She's going to have a hysterectomy, too. At least that's the impression I got from the news.

The good news is she's rich enough to have the best breasts money can buy.
 
Yeah she can drop a million on plastic surgery but I would imagine she'll be modest in her selection.
 
They should be able to recycle some of that silicone in her lips to rebuild her boobs, and they'd still have enough left over for half a dozen boob jobs for the less fortunate...

So, why is her procedure noteworthy while someone not famous isn't. My point is that I don't understand the fascination with celebrities.

A valid point, but I've never been a fan. It's just a legit feeling for me to see others get better.

well, celebrities are famous. therefore, when someone famous does something like this which may be a smart healthcare decision, people in the midwest may decide to follow suit. no one cares if some random chick did this..because she's a random chick.
 
also, one must wonder....if this will be a pathway for insurance to pay for breast augmentation if it were preceeded by a masectomy as part of "preventative care". I mean a very low number of covered nose jobs are really for "breathing difficulty".

also have to wonder if angelina's breasts looked saggy and this was a way to get some implants in without her looking too vain about it

Yet here you are, posting in a thread about a celebrity.
 
I think she is doing a very bold thing and is an example for those you think we don't care so much about.

I think it's also remarkable she's putting the odds of avoiding cancer over vanity. And this is very different for her than for most because she is a celebrity.

Brad Pitt is also setting an example for the rest of us. Though I know if it were my wife going through all this, I'd be 100% supportive.

She's doing something thousands of women do every year. I don't see why it's noteworthy other than the fact she's famous and attractive.

Pretty sad. I guess I've never understood why someone else's life would be more interesting to me than mine or my friends' and family's.

Why did you care about Oden having knee surgery? Was it more interesting to you than yours or your familys' or friends' ?

Because I care about the Portland Trail Blazers. I couldn't give two shits about Oden's life outside of how it affected his game. And his knees are certainly less interesting to me than my own, one of which needs to be replaced.
