'Say no to plastic surgery' says plastic surgery fan

Jane Fonda

09:40am 25th March 2006

She's had breat implants and cosmetic surgery to

remove the bags under her eyes. But that has not

stopped Jane Fonda from announcing that she is

planning to start a crusade to stop her fellow

actresses from having plastic surgery.

The 68-year-old star, who recently posed for a

magazine cover without any make-up, says she believes

everyone in Hollywood is starting to look alike.

And although she may be accused of a being a hypocrite

because of her own surgery in the past, she insists

she is now determined to grow old gracefully.

Jane Fonda is campaigning against plastic surgery

despite having breast implants and eye-lifts herself.

" I'm going to try to organise other women in my

profession and my friends to say No to the duck lips

and getting rid of the wrinkles, " she told

Parkinson in an interview for his ITV chat show to be

shown tonight.

" I've just travelled through Sweden and Finland,

looking at faces that were real, that had their life

experiences on them, as opposed to in Hollywood

[where] everybody is starting to look alike. I said

no, I'm not going to do it, somebody's got to give a

face to getting old. "

Miss Fonda's decision to speak out comes at a time

when the plastic surgery craze in Hollywood appears to

be reaching epidemic proportions. Stars such as Demi

, Griffith, Farrah Fawcett, Joan Rivers,

Cher and Mickey Rourke have all tried to hold back the

march of time with repeated cosmetic surgery.

Miss Fonda, a two-time winner, is no stranger to

plastic surgery herself. She had breast implants while

married to her first husband Vadim.

She only had them removed 16 years ago, saying they

made her feel " unwomanly " .

And she also recently admitted to " a little surgery,

other than the implants " which is believed to have

involved removing the fat under her eyes.

The daughter of Henry Fonda, the thrice-married

actress is well-known for her forthright campaigning

views.

Back in the Sixties, during the Vietnam war, she

became known as Hanoi Jane when she provoked outrage

for posing with North Vietnamese soldiers.

She is not the first Hollywood star to speak out

against the popularity of plastic surgery.

Bacall, 81, recently said she was astounded by

the way people were trying to change the way

they look. She said: " I have friends who are beautiful

women, and they are having liposuction and boob lifts,

and I say, 'What are you doing to yourselves? Stop

it!' "

" I disdain this whole youth sickness thing. "

And Redford, 69, said actors and celebrities

have developed a " sick obsession with plastic

surgery " . Redford said that those who chose to undergo

it were " vain and insecure " .

Miss Fonda also reveals in the Parkinson interview

that having come out of a 15-year retirement to appear

in last year's film Monster-In-Law with

, she was hoping to do more acting.

" I didn't want to do it any more because I just wasn't

happy and so it scared me and so I quit for 15 years, "

she said. " Then I got an offer in a movie, it was a

silly movie but I had such a good time that I'm going

to do more. "
