TIME OUT

Comedian Roseanne Barr, 56, says she repeatedly had plastic surgery in the early ‘90s just to get away from her then husband, actor Tom Arnold.

She told the British newspaper The Guardian about her unhappy marriage:

“Every time I had a break I would have surgery. I think just to get away from him and then when I came back there’d be nurses in the house and I wouldn’t be alone with him.”

The Make Me Heal cosmetic medicine Web site says the comedian-actress has had a breast reduction, face lift, cheek implants, tummy tuck, liposuction and cosmetic work on her chin.

After all that work, Barr doesn’t have a good impression of plastic surgery:

“Now I realize that everyone has to get old and die, but it was still a very bad experience. … No one looks better after plastic surgery. Just pink and shiny. At the end of it, you look like an idiot.”
