First of all the so called revelations aren’t new. Jane has said previously she had implants when the twins were born that was over 12 years ago, hardly news. Second, she’s admitted to trying botox twice and also talked about having a geneticly inherited bag removed from under her eye. I don’t see the big fuss. If she wasnt on DWTS the media wouldn’t make anything of this.
I think the screaming headlines, Jane had implants for Wedding Crashers are not only misleading and unprofessional but insulting. Jane is not the kind of woman who would do somthing like this for a movie part. So yes, I appreciate her candor but the media NOT SO MUCh

It is NOT my business what any other person decides to do cosmetically, surgically or otherwise. It is also noone’s business if I decide to do surgery, botex, fraxel…all of which I have done. Just because a person is a star does not give us the right to tell them what they should or should not do! We as a culture are naturally curious about what the rich and famous do, but we don’t have the right to tell them what to do. Whatever happened to freewill and free choice?
[Colin Stewart replies: I'd say that free will and free choice remain intact, as does free speech. I figure that celebrities do put themselves in the limelight, making themselves subjects for fair comment -- and we can learn things about what's a good idea and what's not by discussing the choices they make.
