Pete Burns (pic above)
Oh hang on, wrong picture…..
Pete Burns (below) has revealed that he almost had his jaw amputated after his famous botched lip implant (the one that made him look like Sly Stallone if Sly wore a a wig and fishnets).
Harley Street doctor Maurizio Vielin is responsible for the lip surgery in 2008, which left Burns needing major reconstruction work to prevent him looking like the Bride of Wildenstein (which he actually does anyway).
Burns told This Morning: “I was saved. I went all over the world to the best surgeons I could find and no one could save me from what he’d done.
“There was going to be lip amputation… jaw amputation, and I found a surgeon in Italy, a cancer reconstructor (sic) specialist called Giovanni Ferrando, who has now set up an office in London who maintains my face and maintains the damage that still goes on with it.”
Funnily enough, ole’ duck pout (and a dead’un duck at that), isn’t planning any more surgery, saying:
“This is not classical good looks, I’ve gone as far as I will go, now mine is going to be maintenance. When you go through what I went through with Maurizio Veil I would never have cosmetic surgery again, and luckily I found someone who could save me and rebuild my face.”
They have may have re-built your face love, but it’s still one that we’d cross the street to avoid on a dark night.
