Jamie Lee Curtis Dishes on Filming ‘Freaky Friday’ Sequel With Lindsay Lohan! (Exclusive)
Jamie Lee Curtis isn’t claiming to be perfect.
The Freaky Friday actress detailed how a comment made by a cinematographer on the set of her 1985 film Perfect costarring John Travolta pushed her to undergo plastic surgery.
“He was like, ‘Yeah I’m not shooting her today. Her eyes are baggy,'” Jamie Lee recalled in a May 11 interview with 60 Minutes. “I was 25. For him to say that was very embarrassing. So as soon as the movie finished, I ended up having some plastic surgery.”
“Not well,” she added when she was asked how it went. “That’s just not what you want to do when you’re 25 or 26. I regretted it immediately and have kind of, sort of regretted it since.”
The Oscar winner added that she has “way” more remorse for her decision now.
That’s because, as Jamie Lee explained, “I’ve become a really public advocate to say to women, ‘You’re gorgeous and you’re perfect the way you are,’ so… oh, yeah. It was not a good thing for me to do.”
