Smart Girls Get Boob Jobs Too!

You know the drill: boys don't make passes at girls who wear glasses. But what if those girls have great fake boobs, too? While eggheads like Jodie Foster may decry the plastic surgery industry, there are still plenty of smarty-pants stars willing to sacrifice their brainy reps in exchange for a bigger bra size. This shocking list of surgically enhanced "smart" celebs proves that it's not just porn stars, strippers, and wannabe actresses making a beeline for the plastic surgeon's office.

Forget Dumbledore's forbidden man love. We want to hear more about J.K. Rowling's seemingly super-sized breasts. The Harry Potter author has spawned rumors that she's spending her Hogwarts fortune on plastic surgery, especially after she accidentally flashed her large chest (mercifully wrapped in a bra) at a recent book reading.

"I'm sure the kids at this L.A. event had no idea they'd be dealing with any twins other than the Weasleys," snickered Go Fug Yourself.

S. Epatha Merkerson


Actress S. Epatha Merkerson is best known for her role as tough cookie Lieutenant Van Buren on "Law & Order," which makes her recent boob job confession so startling - although it does explain why her Emmy speech famously got stuck between her breasts.

According to Contact Music, Merkerson is quite vocal about her dalliance with plastic surgery. "I did my breasts, I won't do my face," she said last year. "I'm 53 years old. If I don't tell the truth at this point, f**k it!"

So does that mean she actually has three Golden Globes?

Ivanka Trump's breast implantsCelebrity Plastic Surgery Ivanka Trump's breast implantsCelebrity Plastic Surgery



Ivanka Trump

Yes, she used to be a model. Yes, she's the daughter of Ivana Trump, a woman who practically put plastic surgery on the map. And yes, daddy Donald Trump is usually seen in the presence of surgically enhanced women.

But given Ivanka Trump's fancy Wharton education, non-nonsense appearances on "The Apprentice," and budding real estate mogul status, you'd assume that she's more than just a pretty face. And you'd be right - now she has a fabulous rack too!

Though Ivanka has branded reports that she got breast implants while in Mexico as "completely false" (because maybe she got them in Beverly Hills?), it's clear that some major swelling has occurred.

"Although they [the implants] look a bit big for her body, there is a possibility that they will decrease in size over the next few months," says Dr. Anthony Youn of Celebrity Cosmetic Surgery. "Her breasts look a bit swollen in the upper pole (the upper part of the breast). This is very common in breast augmentation where the implant is placed under the chest muscle. It can take several months for the implants to settle or drop, after which they will look smaller and more natural."

Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for Donald's hair.

Hilary Swank

Those holding out for Boys Don't Cry 2 should probably move on, because it's highly unlikely that an Ace bandage is going to be able to conceal the new super-sized implants attached to two-time Oscar winner Hilary Swank's chest.

"There's nothing boyish about Oscar winner Hilary Swank anymore," says GoodPlasticSurgery.com. "She's sporting a nice new large rack and it looks nice!"

Pssst, Hilary. This means you have to wear a bra now.
Jane FondaCelebrity Plastic Surgery Jane FondaCelebrity Plastic Surgery



Jane Fonda

She's been an Oscar winner, an outspoken Vietnam War protestor, and a workout queen. Somewhere in the middle of it all she found time to get breast implants, a move she has told CBS's Lesley Stahl makes her "ashamed." Fonda says she got the implants after splitting with ex-husband Tom Hayden.

"The marriage was ending, and I felt so bad about myself," she says. "And I felt so unsexy and unwomanly. And for a while, it made me feel more confident."

Fonda later had the implants taken out, and swears she won't undergo any more plastic surgery - no matter how badly age takes its toll.

"I feel like a jalopy," she says. "I'm losing fenders and hubcaps. I've got arthritis. Ted [Turner, her ex-husband called the other day and said, 'If you were a horse, we'd trade you in.' "

Roses are red

Survey says
Jewel's boobs are new.

Okay, so maybe singer Jewel Kilcher won't be joining Mensa anytime soon, but she is a published poet. Also, it's easy to look brainy when you're surrounded by pop tarts like Britney Spears and Jessica Simpson.

But it looks like Alaska's favorite export has been spending some time in the plastic surgeon's office. Now she's made Star's "Knifestyles of the Rich & Famous."

"It was impossible not to notice that her boobs looked rounder and less natural than usual at the CMA Awards," the magazine says.

Plastic surgeons agree. "The roundness on the top of the breast suggests she's had implants," Dr. Michelle Copeland tells Star.

"The diameter is too small," seconds Dr. George Semel. "They should look better than that."
Patricia HeatonCelebrity Plastic Surgery Patricia HeatonCelebrity Plastic Surgery



Patricia Heaton


"Everybody Loves Raymond"/"Back to You" actress Patricia Heaton is best known for her sharp-tongued, independent characters and her political activism. But after giving birth to four sons, Heaton decided a breast lift was in order. Unlike most celebrities, Heaton is actually open about her procedures.

"My breasts-you had to fold them like Origami to get them into a bra," Heaton told Oprah Winfrey. "It was horrible. The advantage to having them lifted was my waistline went down because I no longer had to tuck 'em in my belt."
Kate BeckinsaleCelebrity Plastic Surgery Kate BeckinsaleCelebrity Plastic Surgery



Kate Beckinsale


So what if her films generally don't appeal to anyone with an IQ over 110? Kate Beckinsale studied French and Russian literature at Oxford, though she stopped just short of completing her degree. Kate also balanced her schoolwork with roles in "smart" films like Kenneth Branagh's "Much Ado About Nothing."

And then Hollywood came calling.

These days, Kate's looking more like a glammed-out LA girl (complete with bigger boobs and, let's face it, a prettier face) than a brainy English rose. She's also the winner of AwfulPlasticSurgery.com's "Ugliest Breasts in Hollywood" award. And really, isn't that better than a fancy degree?
Omarosa ManigaultCelebrity Plastic Surgery Omarosa ManigaultCelebrity Plastic Surgery



Omarosa Manigault

Donald Trump may have fired her from "The Apprentice," but it's clear that Omarosa Manigault does possess some business smarts - namely, the art of self-promotion. When Omarosa decided to upgrade her "concave" negative A cups for a D cup, she didn't just give Star an interview; she let The Discovery Channel film her procedure for the show "Plastic Surgery Before and After."

Omarosa claimed to be thrilled with her new chest, even if she has gotten some criticism for it. "I'm happy, I'm excited, I'm pleased with my decision," she says. "For the guy I'm dating it's fantastic - he calls it 'the gift that keeps on giving!'

"I've gotten a lot of flack from people who say 'Why would you want to change what God gave you?'"

It'll be interesting to see if the new rack helps her curry favor with Trump on "Celebrity Apprentice."
Ann CoulterCelebrity Plastic Surgery Ann CoulterCelebrity Plastic Surgery



Ann Coulter


If there's one thing ultra-conservative henchwoman Ann Coulter is good at, it's generating controversy. The outspoken author's busty appearance at recent events has got people talking about whether or not she's adopted a pro-choice stance on a woman's right to boobs.

"If she's had a breast augmentation, she has nice, modest size implants that take her from an A to a B," says Dr. Anthony Youn of CelebrityCosmeticSurgery.blogspot.com. "Then again, it could also just be a padded bra she bought at a Swap Meet."
Star Jones-ReynoldsCelebrity Plastic Surgery Star Jones-ReynoldsCelebrity Plastic Surgery



Star Jones-Reynolds


We've all heard about the gastric bypass surgery. But let's not forget that Star Jones-Reynolds also had her two favorite co-hosts surgically enhanced too. As Defamer.com notes, the former attorney and current talk show host admitted to getting breast implants and a lift - though the surgery was not without hiccups. Star reportedly experienced some complications, including bleeding, during the procedure.
