Jennifer Grey

Who are you and what you did with Jennifer Grey?

ImageAfter 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.

ImageImage 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.

ImageImageShe 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"

Jennifer Grey went through a nightmare after her original nose job/rhinoplasty (read comments from BAD NOSE...BAD June 24,2009). Look her real story upon the net. Plastic surgery that is meant to be minor can be life-changing in both positive and negative ways.
I know a girl who had an "Ashlee Simpson-type" nose but I didn't know how much she hated it and herself. Years later seeing her perky little upturned nose (obviously post-surgery) I thought she looked great. But was it necessary to make her happy? I doubt it. She's grown up, doesn't pretend to be happy anymore and is a more honest person. She knows she looks better. That's all. But she looked lovely before too. Perhaps a good psychologist might have helped?
Sometimes surgery goes wrong and Jennifer Grey suffered chronic pain and required further surgery. She should serve as a warning against taking surgery too lightly, and not because it destroyed her career, but because the pain was destroying her. She looked and still looks beautiful on the outside but what was going on inside is what counted for her. Good for her that she had her own successful sitcom for a few years (called "Didn't you used to be.....", from memory?) It was a send up of herself and total acceptance of her experiences. She has a family and seems a grounded human being. Thank God for that, just look at some of the stories that come out of Hollywood and recent tragic deaths. Fame and beauty clearly aren't all we're lead to believe and aspire to.

She changed her hair too and it also makes it seem another person.

She needed it! But maybe should have done it before her movie roles.

The ART of IMPERFECTION.

with everyone seeming to want straight straight straight...
I think there is an underappreciated art and beauty in the nose that is slightly flawed but has character.
In my humble opinion, If a nose is perfectly straight then its not neccessarily better in the the aesthetic sense.
A slight and barely noticable irregularity is exactly what gives a face its character and personality.
Providing that the proportions are correct the nose with the slight hump or bump can often be more sexy and/or alluring then just a plain old vanilla straight nose. Though it often takes a greater aesthetic sense of awareness to realize that.
Having said that....Jennifers original nose could use some refinement but I think it was overly done thereby losing her sense of identity in the process ...she is still beautiful though...just not as much character to her face.

Like everyone I loved her in Dirty Dancing and never even thought her nose was less than pretty. When I saw her recently, I couldn't believe it was the same person and that's a shame when you can't recognise a person you like. She looks good still but unfortunately like another person.

I think she looked beautiful before the nose job, she had personality. Now she's pretty but the personality's gone.

I thought she was adorable and is adorable still. Too bad the times have changed so much that everyone thinks that plastic surgery is the answer to everything. The ideal woman today needs to be robot perfect. Big lips, perfect nose, lip the hell out of any fat cells you might have. Don't forget to insert giant plastic things in your breasts.

Women are beautiful and should not have to correct themselves with knifes to feel beautiful, Shame on the image makers for creating such myths.

She was great in Wind, Dirty Dancing, and Ferris. She was unique. It is a real shame she had the nose done. Even after seeing the "after" pictures, I'm not sure I could pick her out in a crowd. But I can see why she got it. Hollywood wants gorgeous stars for its leading ladies, and I'm sure there was a lot of pressure to try to conform to that ideal. She went for the brass ring, and it didn't pan out. If she hadn't gotten the nose job, more than likely she would have been relegated to smaller movies or character parts even though she is in my mind, great.

Jennifer, I watched that film what seems like a lifetime ago now and fell in love with you, so did the rest of the world, not everybody gets to be americas sweetheart. I know you auditioned for flashdance, and that would of been a great choice of film roles if you had managed to land it. "WIND", I thought was a good film, and you stole the show,

You will be a star always and nobody can take that away from you, you have been there and done it! and now have a beautiful family. If a surgeon could provide these kind of results for individuals then please tell me where to sign up.

P.S. your only mistake through all of this jennifer was not finding and falling in love with me, to late for that now I have a family of my own to take care of.

I think what many of you are missing is that she doesn't look different because she had a nose job. She looks different because she had a BAD nose job, and it required a ton of additional surgery to be fixed. If the first nose job had gone how it was supposed to, she wouldn't have looked so "different". But because the first job was messed up, Dr's were forced to change her overall appearance to make her face look like a normal face.

She is and was a beautiful woman. I wish she hadn't gotten the nose job done because I believe she would have went on to make more great mevies. It's hard to believe a nose job can change the way you look so drastically!

What's wrong with some of you. Jennifer Grey doesn't look generic now, she looks absolutely beautiful. You people must have perfect, nice straight noses to not understand how she felt. A woman doesn't want to just look cute and be known for a mis-shapen nose. A woman wants to be beautiful. And now she is.

It's so sad that a person has to feel she must change what makes her unique. I do believe she is sorry that she did it.

That´s what i always said, why the hell is everybody thinking that he or she has to be look perfect? When Dirty Dancing came out, everybody liked Jennifer Grey and thought she was cute and beautiful. Nobody actually takes notice about her nose!
Next time when you´re thinking about a nose job, think at Jennifer Grey and what it had brought to her. Or think about Barbra Streisand. She has a really big and eye-catching nose, but does someone cares? no! does it damaged her career? no!

I thought she was beautiful, with her infamous nose. Too bad she had it done, she probably felt insecure for a long time, If she chose to do it good for her, but in this case, maybe this "baby" will stand in the corner!

yeah but how many stars were one hit wonders? it could have happened nose job or not. maybe she wasnt cut out for acting. whos to say thats what it was from?

written by Thomas, December 21, 2008
I think some of you are missing the point. It's not about whether Jennifer Grey looks prettier or not post rhinoplasty. It's about the fact she could not cash in afterwards with the success she had managed to build on Dirty Dancing because no one recognizes her anymore. She now looks like just another pretty face -- which is a dime o' dozen in Hollywood.

Look at Mickey Rourke. That guy looks really messed up now and could only get a job if they remade Frankenstein.

i lover her new nose she is very pretty

I thought Jennifer was ADORABLE before her nose job...sometimes people forget that physical imperfections, subtle or obvious, can be very attractive. Her nose helped her to stand out from other actresses. Now her new nose makes her appear to have a different personality, whether her actual personality has changed or not. It's too bad. She still looks pretty, but not as pretty as before.

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.

I thought she was beautiful - her face had character - good grief ... ...... (isn't ther some way to have another surgery to put her nose back where it belongs??????? )

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.
