Recently Ashley Tisdale, star of Disney’s hit film ‘High School Musical’ has decided to use her hard earned cash to go into the operating theatre and receive cosmetic surgery on her nose… and how old is she, a ripe old age of 22.

The question in my mind is how on earth could a teenager (+3yrs) be mature enough to make a decision to physically change the shape of her body for the rest of her life? As someone who has quite a lot of tattoos, and who got his first one at quite a young age, this may sound a little hypocritical, but I know that if I want one of them gone – laser treatments are available to restore my skin to its previous state – not to mention that if I want to or need to, I can cover any of my tattoos extremely easily. Changing your nose on the other hand, is not so simple.

First of all, you’re having someone cut you open and sew you back together – that isn’t reversible. Sure there’s more plastic surgery you can have to ‘try’ and put it back to the way it was, but chances are that you’ll end up looking like Michael Jackson.

At this point it’s important to note that the cosmetic surgery our dear Ashley underwent was rhinoplasty, the reason for which (apparently) was a deviated septum, which bless her little heart, was ‘hindering her breathing’. A nice cover story I’ll admit to that much, she makes it sound like it was life-saving surgery and her fans will all tell her how brave she is to go through all that trauma. Please. She says ‘Growing up I always knew I had a deviated septum…’ – really? You always knew? So you turned to your mother at the age of 4 and said ‘mother I do believe I have a deviated septum, would you please take note that someday I would like to have it corrected, because I don’t want people thinking it was a spur of the moment nose job’ – Do me a favour!

It seems that the cast of High School Music have made it their mission to set a great example for the younger generations looking up to them. First Vanessa Hudgen’s little indiscretion with her naked pictures all over the internet (see above) and now Ashley Tisdale promoting plastic surgery! (much as she claims to the contrary). I see a breast augmentation in at least one of their futures.
