Holy Crap: Tawny on blu ray

Just got the new blu ray of "Witchboard" from Scream Factory. Watching the new interviews, I was STUNNED at how Tawny looks now. She looks nothing like her old self...she looks very waxy and mask like, as if she went to the same plastic surgeon as Cher & Dolly Parton. Just very fake and plastic. Kathleen Wilhoite (with the exception of her too dark eyebrows and hair), James Quinn, Todd Allen & Stephen Nichols and all the others look great (even Malfeitor!), aged gracefully and naturally...but wow, Tawny looks awful..too much filler/botox/etc...sad.

There's a lot of pressure on celebs to stay young, probably more so with those who gained their fame mainly through their looks. I'm not saying Tawny isn't a good actress, I quite liked her in this film, but she was also a huge sex symbol in her day. There seems to be 2 paths for former sex symbols to go down: 1) they age naturally and get wrinkled like the rest of us or, 2) they do plastic surgery and generally look 'odd' but less wrinkled. There are a few who are lucky and age gracefully or have a good plastic surgeon, but they tend to be the exception.
