After being noticeably absent from the media following her hip surgery in February, Lady Gaga has reappeared to sing the national anthem at the Gay Pride Rally in New York last weekend. And, well, something seems a little different about Lady Gaga In additional to a new hip, Lady Gaga is reportedly sporting a surgically altered face to boot!
Lady Gaga is well known for reinventing herself, so is not super unusual that she showed up after four months in near seclusion, looking different, but Lady Gaga's latest re-invention involves a bit more than her usual wacky costumes and crazy makeup. A remarkably slimmer nose, puffed up lips and frozen face seem to be the result of plastic surgery, and the dramatic results don’t take an expert to spot. I think it’s safe to say that Lady Gaga was definitely not born this way…
Although Lady Gaga has always claimed to support “being yourself”, she doesn’t exactly practice what she preaches. Lady Gaga started dabbling with plastic surgery in 2008, shortly after she signed her first record deal, and this is when she got her first rhinoplasty surgery. Gaga was only 20 years old when she was signed by Interscope, and as most young up-and-coming stars will tell you, record-producing experts will effectively just sit you down and tell you what you need to change in order to achieve famousness (and yes, looks have as much, or more to do with selling records than actual singing ability). Rumor has it that in addition to the nose job, Lady Gaga has also had a chin implant and lip injections in the past.
So what about 2013? Has Lady Gaga had more plastic surgery recently? According to photo comparisons, it appears that she may have spent the last 4 months of downtime from her hip surgery, healing from another nose job as well. Lady Gaga’s nose has gone from distractingly prominent, to prominent/distinquished and now to just another “perfect” plastic nose.
I mean really…Who gets a bunch of custom-made designer wheelchairs made, and then hides out from the paparazzi for months? (Someone that has had plastic surgery and doesn’t want you to know…). After watching Lady Gaga belt out her version of the Star Spangled Banner, it’s also obvious that the 27-year old singer has also had a bit too much Botox that has left her eyebrows, forehead and much of her face completely immobilized. Check it out below and let us know what you think!
Lady Gaga: Special Effects or Cosmetic Enhancements?
When it comes to rumors about whose looks came with the aid of a scalpel the Lady Gaga plastic surgery rumors are perhaps some of the slipperiest.
The young singer, currently in her 20s, became famous for looks that were compared to Christina Aguilera and her style that’s more than reminiscent of David Bowie.
However, despite her catchy lyrics and outlandish costumes, there is pervading gossip on par with that of Angelina Jolie.
Of course, unlike fellow young stars such as Rose McGowan, Lady Gaga denies that she’s had any procedures done, and that she was “Born This Way.”
Has Lady Gaga Had Cosmetic Surgery – Nose Job, Face Lift?
Born Stefani Germanotta on 28 March 1986, Lady Gaga has repeatedly explained that she is still natural and the way she always has been. Lady Gaga came to public attention in 2008 with her debut album, The Fame. Since then she has had massive international hits with tracks such as Poker Face and Just Dance.
In an outright denial of bad plastic surgery, Lady Gaga has pointed out that a lot of what fans see are prosthetics, wigs, makeup, and even her natural bone structure. No celebrity plastic surgery here, so move along to the next series of questions.

“It’s a performance art-piece,” she was quoted as saying during the interview.
“I have never, ever encouraged my fans or anyone to harm themselves, no do I romanticize masochism. Body modification is part of the over-arching analysis of ‘Born This Way’.”
A touching quote, and one that really brings home how the artist thinks about her art as it might affect her fans. However, it hasn’t quelled all of the speculation fires that are still burning about whether or not Lady Gaga is in fact a plastic surgery celebrity.
In an interview with Derek Blasberg, Lady Gaga explains that she has never gone under the knife.
Lady Gaga – Before and After Pictures?
Whenever people are trying to figure out if a celebrity had plastic surgery gone wrong, they’re going to produce the before and after photos.
To confirm Suzanne Somers plastic surgery speculations for instance, fans will hold up before and after shots that are supposed to show how the basic shape of her changed. It’s a good strategy, and it’s one that works if a procedure was so lacking in subtlety that huge changes occurred.
However this particular plan has a lot of problems when it comes to Lady Gaga. Namely the problem is that she’s, well, Lady Gaga.
Anyone that’s a fan of her work knows that Lady Gaga isn’t just in costume on stage; she’s in costume everywhere. Her outlandish looks are what she’s famous for, and you never see her without makeup, wigs, prosthetics or some other bizarre, appearance shifting getup.
This makes it nearly impossible to get a real bead on whether or not Lady Gaga has had work done, because with all of the makeup skill and artistry that goes into her daily appearance she is constantly shifting.
However, there are still people who claim she’s received lip surgery and a rhinoplasty to lengthen and narrow her nose. Unfortunately both of these effects can be put down to clever makeup and camera angles, leaving Lady Gaga plastic surgery gossip unfulfilled and speculative.
On the other hand, Lady Gaga has insisted that she will never succumb to plastic surgery.
Lady Gaga called cosmetic procedures "harmful" because they promote insecurity.
To be more exact, speaking in the May issue of U.S. "Harper's Bazaar", Gaga revealed: "I have never had plastic surgery, and there are many pop singers who have. I think promoting insecurity in the form of plastic surgery is infinitely more harmful than an artistic expression related to body modification."
She continued: "And how many models and actresses do you see on magazine covers who have brand-new faces and have had plastic surgery, while I myself have never had any plastic surgery?"
Lady Gaga recently admitted that she would possibly get cosmetic surgery in the future. In an interview with "Heat Magazine", she claimed that she didn’t have any cosmetic surgery yet, even though there are those who maintain that they have seen differences in her appearance over the years.
The revelation came after being asked if she did have surgery in which Gaga replied, "I haven't had any yet, I was born this way. But maybe after I pop out a few Gaga babies I'll be not born this way any more." Surgery after a pregnancy isn’t out of the norm for many, tummy tucks are a quick fix for loose skin and lasers can help fade stretch marks.
It’s a bit of a shocking testimony since Lady Gaga has spent much time pushing the message to love who you are, even penning the song "Born this Way." She also told "Heat magazine": "I have had my body insecurities, but that's why I wrote "Born This Way", I wanted to create a space that would liberate all of those insecurities. It's an incredibly church-like, religious experience where we exorcise our insecurities."
More previous pictures of singer Lady Gaga emerged recently suggesting that Gaga got some plastic surgery procedures to improve her image before getting to the place of her career she is now. Apparently there are plastic surgeons who strongly believe that she got breast implants and a rhinoplasty.
There are pictures that show her like a completely different person, but the biggest difference is her nose. In the previous pictures her nose looks much bigger and poorly defined, now it looks with better proportion, but still, is not perfectly defined showing some bump depending on the picture,which makes plastic surgeons wonder:"Why she would go for a rhinoplasty to get the job partially done?"
So, for this one there are different options,. It could be that those older pictures are somehow manipulated, that is not even her, that the photographer was a completely disaster to make her look fine or that she actually got the nose job like that.
Lady Gaga hasn't got breast implants ,because earlier this year, her breast looks pretty much natural, not too big, not too round, not too upper projected, but with all the signs of natural breast. With her particular sense of style, sometimes she likes to wear corsets and push up bras, so that could explain the change that can be seen sometimes.
