I'm intrigued by this. And let's be fair, that photo posted above is probably the worst of the batch. If you look at the others, like this one -
You can "kind of" see it's Renee. But the thing is, she looks GREAT. It's not like looking at bad plastic surgery photos of someone who isn't recognizable anymore. I mean, if she's had work done, she's had GOOD work done.
I knew a lot of guys who had crushes on her because of her approachable, girl next door look. That's gone now but at the end of the day, what matters is how she feels about herself. If she's happy with how she looks now, then more power to her.
I just think it's unfortunate that such a beautiful woman felt the need to do that to her face. It's had quite the opposite effect and aged her a bit. Whatever makes you happy, though.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
~ Muhammad Ali
Oh come off it, Borstal. I'm all for calling out misogyny, bias against women, unfair beauty standards etc. but that's not what this one is about. She looks dramatically different. And not in that "oooh, girl, you spent way too much time at Dr. Schwartz's" or "oooh, girl, you old now!" way, but as in "holy ****, is that a different person?" way.
She doesn't look bad, but I miss her old face. I will choose to believe this is all some elaborate hoax and she paid some random woman off the street to pretend to be her during the Women In Hollywood Awards, just to make some sort of social statement. Updated On: 10/22/14 at 11:51 PM
All of this is SO complicated and calls up so many contradictory impulses I find it really exasperating. And all of the contradictory impulses can be true and STILL contradictory. I'm just finding it hard to sit patiently with them and tell myself the world is a complicated place.
I've ALWAYS been uncomfortable on these boards when people, especially women, praise somebody like Madonna for "looking great" "at her age" because it's all surgically enhanced. Anyway, I'm not going to go down the rabbit hole, but this buzz feed piece gets at many of the awful ways this Renee situation has gotten me down today. What’s Really Behind The Ridicule Of Renée Zellweger’s Face
All this Femo-blog hand-wringing is ridiculous. Are there people saying crass and awful things about plastic surgery and about unrealistic expectations on aging when it comes to this discussion? Sure. But, AGAIN, the reason we're all fascinated in this particular case is not because she looks older (heaven forbid!) or that she looks like she had too much surgery (if anything, she looks more "natural" now than she did at the height of her fame), but because she looks like a DIFFERENT HUMAN BEING. How is this so difficult for people to grasp?
I haven't really seen much in the way of negative criticism. I think most agree that she looks great. She moved away from the baby face that she had. It's more that it wasn't at all gradual. She just suddenly looks mature and more polished than she has in the past. It's a little shocking.
Pretty pretty please don't you ever ever feel like you're less than f**ckin' perfect!
