David Gest: I was an idiot to have plastic surgery

Reality star says he was foolish to have a nose job

Tuesday, 16 September 2008

David Gest regrets going under the knife.

The reality star had a nose job, facelift, cheek implants and was given a cleft chin in 1981.

‘I’ve never thought of myself as handsome,’ he says. ‘I can’t bear to look in the mirror.

'I was an idiot to have plastic surgery – there was nothing wrong with my nose.

'But nobody could have stopped me at the time. I was a foolish kid.’

David, now 55, says appearing on I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! in 2006 helped him accept his appearance.

‘It is the best thing I ever did,’ he says. ‘I finally realised that people liked me.

'I guess people saw the real me and realised I wasn’t just a freak in sunglasses.

'I get mobbed in the street by fans now. It’s crazy, but I love it.’

There's nothing wrong with looking like the Spitting Image puppet of Tom Jones ;)

There's got to be a reputable plastic surgeon who can make him look human again.
