Hollywood Leans Toward More Natural Looks
Mention Hollywood, and most people think of glamour: beautiful women with smooth, flawless skin and perfectly aligned white teeth, men with trim athletic bodies.
But much of that look is artificial: breast implants, Botox-treated faces, collagen-injected lips and other surgically-enhanced body parts.
That's challenges for the filmmakers and casting directors who are looking for actors with a more natural look.
Many actors believe enhancing their looks with cosmetic surgery will give them an advantage when they audition for film and TV roles.
"There are more actors now entering the entertainment market than any other time in America, which is a wonderful thing because actors are being really prepared as far as artists,"
"But there are more actors entering the mainstream than there are jobs. So it's a very, very competitive, tough market."
Tony Nation is president of Actors Connection, which helps young actors and models get noticed and get jobs.
He says there is too much reliance on plastic surgery.
"It's almost like sort of social pressure," "Now it's like everything is being done. So you see women in their teens and twenties having plastic surgery. I think it's just a really dangerous mindset."
Nation says as more and more casting directors and filmmakers choose more natural looking talent, actors and actresses will become more cautious about having plastic surgery if their goal is to survive in the highly competitive business.
