Kris Jenner Gets Facelift -- And Gets Sued?

Princess 19 on 9 Aug 2011 at 9:00am

Kris Jenner, the supermom of the Kardashian girls has recently been embroiled in a controvery of her own.  But, it's not an adult video, thank goodness.  It's for getting some work done.

The 55-year-old matriach of the Kardashian clan recently went under the knife to get "refreshed" for daughter Kim's impending August 20th nuptuals to NBA star Kris Humphries.  The facelift, um er, claimed neck lift was well documented on an episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians.

But hold on reality show watchers! Kris is a spokesperson for an anti-aging skin care line called Beautiful Eyes in a Bag.  Any face work, according to the company, is a breach of contract (cue "whodunit" music now - da, da, DUM).  B & P, the parent company, alleges that the surgery violates her agreement not to harm the reputation of the company and the product line.

Jenner insists the procedure didn't affect her face but simply tightened up saggy skin around her neck.  Sure...  (And how is the "neck area" NOT under the stipulations of the contract?  Oh, that's right, it's the neck, not the face...)

Well, whatever it was, one thing is for sure.  The surgery was documented and Kris, herself, admitted to some sort of work recently on CBS' The Talk.

"That was a brave thing to do.  I had a little, you know, 'freshening up' for the wedding," she says.  Ok, so she doesn't exactly admit what she had done. 

Wait, didn't Kris go bananas on daughter Khloe for gaining "happily married" weight, thus jeopardizing her weight loss plan endorsement with Quik Trim products?  Tsk, tsk Kris.  This seems a bit all too hypocritical.  No?  Hmmm...the plot thickens.

Do you think Kris would be misrepresenting the skincare line with a surgically altered face?

To me, this isn't any different than those "Falsies" mascara commercials where the voice says "No false lashes needed" as the model throws hers away, yet she is CLEARLY wearing GIANT fake lashes. 

I would guess that most celebs who endorse beauty products probably have had (at the very least) a little Botox.

It's noble that the skincare company has enough integrity to care, if that's the case. But it may be that they're just trying to draw attention to their brand.

I am sure the company is suing for more than one reason...a) no one wants a person who openly had work done endorsing a "miracle" skin product and b) they don't have to pay her if they win in court.  Honestly, I have never even seen her talk about this product so, that contract was money well spent...NOT. Regardless, she looks great!

She sure does! But yes, the fact that their brand is unknown even with her as it's spokeswoman is what makes me think that they will get more press out of this lawsuit than anything else -- and they know it!

She is clearly jealous of her daughters and cannot accept the fact that she is an aging woman. Good grief....she just needs to accept and embrace herself. She is a marketing genius....why isn't that enough for her? She totally gives woman in their 50's a BAD BAD rap. Give it up Kris....be who you are and STOP trying tobe 20, 30 or even 40 anymore! Sheesh!

Why shouldn't she take care of herself? She can afford to, and it really is nobody's business. I don't believe in growing old with dignity - when my time comes, I will also get a facelift. Why should anyone look like an old raisin?

Thank you Makenzie. Gravity is gonna take its toll on all of us some day. We all have to work hard now so when something starts to drop, we have the money to have it nipped, tucked, lifted, whatever. We all have to stay beautiful (and sometimes that isn't easy!).

It sounds like you want to stay 17 yrs old the rest of ur life to (huh).It does not work out that way.Remember time will get yaaa.
Clarabelle1 26 Aug 2011
Kris has had work done for years. Look at the difference between her wedding photos to Kardashian and then to Jenner.

Snowball, why are you on a plastic surgery site, if you are baggin' on it?? Cosmetic surgery, if done correctly, can look great... or if done poorly, JOAN RIVERS! Kris J looks good, but eight hours for a facelift, NOT. I bet she had some lipo while she was under.

What is amazing to me is that no one, with money, can accept the vestiges of TIME in their appearance. Whether it be on their face or body. This is one example of the obsession that has taken hold of the world, in people's lives, in the media, and in the culture. As long as we have "facelifts" (okay, "chin tucks") filmed for public consumption, and products, such as "Beautiful Eyes in a Bag", telling "us" that this beauty can be our's, for a price, we'll continue to be obsessed. To the detriment of more worldly problems. If we placed as much time, money, and effort into the world's ills, as we do beauty, we could cure famine, droughts, and the unrelenting downward spiral of life, as we know it.

All she is is another middleaged lady trying to stay young to stay up with her nutty daughters.Her husband looks like a circus clown.Now it is her turn(wow).

WHO CARES!!!! When is the Kardashians 15 min of fame up? I hope its soon. I will give mom Kris credit for being the hardest working of the bunch. The rest of them, well someone tell me again what it is that they do. They always claim that they work so long and hard but what is it that they actually do? On their tv show there is an episode were they meet with the execs at sears. When they are in the board room they are all texting away. When Kim is asked for input she cant even answer a simple question and looks like a retard (way to think on your feet Kimmy). So besides mom, what actual "work" are the girls doing in regards to Sears. I doubt they are on a sowing machine thats for sure. They can do what they do best and call into or appear on a show (and moan about how hard they work). They can go on a red carpet or do some photo shoots 2 promote it. yeah lets just leave tough stuff like that for them and let the little people do all the real work.

Haha I saw that clip too, heywood! It was a little odd how Kim "runs" all these fashion businesses and such, yet couldn't seem to say one word about "her" Sears line. Her sisters seemed a little more put together though.

You could afford plastic surgery too, if you spend as much time as they do on their backs.
Clarabelle1 27 Aug 2011
And it was more than a neck lift. Look at the packing and bandaging, as well as the black surgical markings on her chin and her eyes. That's what my marks looked like! LOL!

Who cares if she had something done. I'm only 32 & would LOVE to look like her & she's pushing 60!!

Please let their 15 minutes be over soon!!!!!!

What about Marilyn Miglin or Adrienne both on HSN promoting their skin care lines. Their faces have been stretched from here to Sunday. And they expect people to buy their products? If they didn't work for them, they're not going to work for anyone else. Save your money, ladies, on these two product lines.
Clarabelle1 31 Aug 2011
Adrienne Arpel and Marilyn Miglin have indeed had a great deal of work done, as has Jane Seymour or that Judd woman and her Esteem line. You'll notice that they are careful to say the word SKIN alot. But these are also THEIR lines. Kris was hired to promote the line of someone else and signed a contract with their stipulations. And if that meant an agreement to no surgery, that is what it meant. She prolly could have done something and it might not have even been noticed, but Kris could never do anything without camera documentation. She also has surgical markings around her eyes in that photo. I think these guys are right to want their money back. I had neck surgery, too, to get rid of the third boob I had hanging from my chin. I'd had a double chin since I was born and got rid of it at 47 when I should have done it at 20. But my SKIN still needs some work. I can see where they can get away with some of what they say, but if they are baldly saying "I look like this solely because I use my products..." that wouldn't be right.

The skin care line is obviously jealous, and money hungry, loSERS.
Clarabelle1 1 Sep 2011
I don't think so. I think they wanted a spokesperson that will promote their products, and she didn't do that as well as violated a contract. We'll see what we see!

I'm middle sixties,financially challenged, and on medicare and an HMO that I pay extra for. If I could afford to, I would deffinitly get my droopy eyelids fixed and a whatever to my neck. Then again, needles are not my friends. Good for her if it makes her feel better!

Also, Courtney Cox got into similar trouble. Except she didn't have a facelift, she just admitted to getting Botox done pretty regularly. I don't remember if she got SUED, though...but I know the anti-aging skin care company wasn't too happy about it. What makes Kris's story different, though..is that the company she endorses is an unknown company, while Courteney's isn't unknown.
