Dax Shepard and Zach Braff debate celebrity plastic surgery as Shepard admits he oscillates between getting a facelift and valuing authenticity
“I have zero judgment if someone does it. I don't give a f*** if anyone gets a facelift,” Shepard, 51, said during the Monday, March 16, episode of his “Armchair Expert” podcast, telling guest Zach Braff that he’s gone back and forth between wanting a facelift and staying natural.
The Parenthood alum noted, “I go to the dentist. I whiten my teeth. There's a lot of things I do, and I work out like crazy because I want my body to look a certain way. Like, I'm vain.”“I'm like, ‘This is actually kind of cool.’ I'm going to be one of the few people that didn't have a facelift, and I'm going to look weirdly authentic, and I think that's going to have some weird value,” he continued. “Like, I think I'm choosing the right path. Twenty percent of the time, I'm like, ‘This is crazy.’ Why wouldn't I? I have the money, and I am vain. I oscillate .” For Braff, 50, the fear of something going “awry” with plastic surgery has kept him from having any cosmetic procedures done. “Like, I never got Lasik because I don't know what minuscule percentage of cases of Lasik go awry, but I never got Lasik because, like, my eyes are my whole life,” he explained. “And also, if you and I all of a sudden … we had little cute noses and a f***ing pronounced chin and a jawline, wouldn't people be like, ‘What the f*** did you do?’” Shepard’s cohost, Monica Padman, pointed out that what is often most attractive about people is the “differences” between them. “It's not for some people, obviously it is, but it's like, the classic looking cookie-cutter is not what's interesting. And everyone's starting to meld into one look,” she continued. Braff added, “I think it helps us that we're the age we are, because I'm playing a grizzled cop, a dad. The parts are different. You're not trying to be the leading man who gets the girl. I was never competing for those roles, really. I did one or two of those, but I was never going to be the Glen Powell of the moment.” Shepard has opened up about his insecurities in the past. During a January episode of his podcast, the Zathura actor admitted that it’s often difficult to see people comparing him to his wife of nearly 13 years, Kristen Bell. “I’ve been with Kristen for 20 years, and there have been hundreds of articles about, ‘Why is she with this guy?’ Lists of top 10 hot girls with ugly guys,” he said. “I’ve been dealing with that less now since the podcast, but for the first 12, 13 years we were together, there were hundreds of these lists of ugly guys with hot girls, and I’m always on it.”
