Who are you and what you did with Jennifer Grey?

After her role in the film hit Dirty Dancing (1987), actress Jennifer Grey had a nose job (rhinoplasty) to remove the bump from her nose. For many, this change on her look cost her nothing less than her career.

It is true that her bridge has a dorsal hump very obvious, but it was such a part of her that even some friends fail to recognize her after the surgery.  Looking at the pictures, we can see that it was a good plastic surgery as the nose looks natural, but she looks like somebody else indeed.

She commented in an interview for Channel 5 (UK) that having plastic surgery on her nose was the worst mistake she had ever made. Grey felt this way because she was no longer recognizable as the girl from the film Dirty Dancing (1987), just somebody who looked a bit like her.  Some other stars have received the same comments after having plastic surgery making it call sometimes the "Jennifer Grey" syndrome, celebrities as Ashlee Simpson and Ashley Tisdale from "High School Musical"

To change a face like that... It really demands courage. Because she's so changed, almost unrecognizable... But let's face it. If the plastic surgery ruined her career or not... the truth is that she's much prettier now.

Oh my god!!!!
Plastic surgery has helped many celebrities in their careers, although for some their careers were ruined. The best example is actress Jennifer Grey, famous for her role in Dirty Dancing in the 1980’s. Despite her acting talent, Jennifer believed that she had to make her nose perfect and remove any irregularity from it. But when she did so she ceased getting acting offers because nobody could recognise the famous actress any more. Although less than perfect, her nose gave her face character. After she corrected it Jennifer just blended into the mass of faceless and uninteresting actresses.

This has to be one of the all-time "classic tradgedies" of plastic surgery.

A stunning woman with a unique look chooses to go for a more "plain, generic" look.

Very sad.
