She needs more than a therapist, she probably has many. This is what happen we just concentrate how we look outside and neglect how we look inside. When the outside goes, there is nothing to hang on, desperation sets in. That is the state she is in now. There is nothing more empty,, pointless and self loading than the celebrity world. Everything is about appearance and nothing about substance.
THIS IS A TESTAMENT THAT PEOPLE NEED TO EMBRACE AGING AND BODY ACCEPTANCE ELSE THE COSTMETIC INDUSTRY WOULDNT THRIVE. LOVE YOUR BODY. I DONT KNOW HOW TO FEEL SORRY FOR HER. LET HER LIVE WITH HER INSECURITIES
When your entire existence has been focused solely on your physical beauty and body, when that’s gone and you have no core foundation to fall back on, you realize how empty and superficial your existence really is. I’m sorry this happened to her, but she has her son, many supporters, and is probably far better off than many other “disfigured” people
So true!!! Even though I feel compassion for her, I don't agree with her attitude and approach to blame the whole world in her financial loss and depression !!! There are so many ways you can make money today regardless being perfectly thin.You just need to find one and you will have so many supporters and followers that you can inspire!
Laura is going to have a field day reading her. LMAO!!! I can hear you scream in agony Linda at the thought of Laura coming down so hard on you!!! I can actually hear her voice and almost all the words she'll use just to let you have it!!!. However you are right. Versace would not dress you or let you walk in shows looking like that. Oh My God!! I do feel for you. We Love you but she's gonna come for you deary!!! LOL
Pretty sad indeed when ur whole life revolves around ur physical appearance and how beautiful u are. Sounds like she did not develop enough other things in her life that matter more then just physical beauty and now she is feeling the affect of that.
Linda, I’m so sorry this happened to you. I can’t pretend to really understand the shock or extreme discomfort you’re experiencing. I hope you are well cared for and the pain & the scar tissue you’re dealing with can be removed and resolved without too much difficulty. You are still no doubt so beautiful. You were all over my bedroom and closet walls growing up… I wanted to be just like you🖤🦋
I saw her many years ago in Rome where she was on the cover of every magazine on the newsstand, which she had stopped to photograph. Easily the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. It must be something to watch time wash all of that away.
@@timsimms412 Fair enough. But all cosmetic operations or procedures carry some degree of risk, and that may have been a very risky procedure for someone her age and in her specific case.
Feel bad for her kid. It’s time for her too concentrate on things other then just how beautiful u are. There is a lot more in life too focus on that matters a lot more
She doesn’t look that bad. I guess this is what happens when you and others overemphasize looks instead of character. She should go get some therapy and get on with her life. It’s not about her happiness anymore it’s about her children.
“It’s not about her happiness anymore it’s about her children.” Are you serious with that nonsense?! So because she has a child, she has to put her own happiness and what makes her happy aside?! I guess her life isn’t her own anymore. And the fact that people agreed with your ridiculous statement is frightening.
I feel bad for her to a point. But to make pretentious comments like "Versace won't want to dress me". I mean really? My closest girlfriend has suffered from a severe from of debilitating and disabling rheumatoid arthritis where as she ages her entire body will seize and she will die a slow death. So, when I think about my friend and listen to this woman go on about how she is no longer this great beauty anymore because she has these body bulges now irritates me. Look what happened to the once great beauty Kathleen Turner and she has even said herself that people need to get over the fact she does not look the way she used to because she is just happy to be healthy and alive. The issue with Linda is she has only just relied on her outer appearance and has nothing else in her life to create value outside of her beauty. Maybe its time for her to wake up and find other things in her life of value.
Folks spend a lot of money trying to look 22 at 50 .. Society says all beautiful women should look 22 till they die..I thought we humans were more advanced

Thank you, Brandi, for being empathetic and encouraging to many people. I have read so many negative and rude comments about Linda speaking up about this.
This is a problem with celebrities. The succes makes them feel more like a God then human. Then they realize that they are aging as all of us. Still want to convince themselfs that with their money they are still special. . She could be a very good looking older woman but have chosen to be pathetic and funny. She does not deserve our sympathy.
Vanity caused her to try the procedure. like any other form of body enhancement treatments there is inherent risk. The truth is we age and our bodies change. Our metabolism slows and with nature's gravitational pull it all goes south.The hard and difficult path of maintainance is discipline. Taking charge of what we eat.drink,and an exercise regiment. Unfortunately for those that have made a living in the pop culture limelight, the acceptance of aging is terror. Much of who they are and their identities are based on the external (the ephemeral), looks, voice,trend,etc. I would hope that like the rest of us who are not in the limelight Ms Evangelista will accept the reality of physical change gracefully.
It must be so difficult for celebrities and famous people to show a perfect image 24/7. At the end of the day time goes by for everybody,and they are human beings ,with a different job. I hope she can smile again.🌸
BS! I hope she loses her lawsuit! She wants to punish the world for her aging! What a princess of entitlement. If she was disfigured, she hasn't shown it. What a nut
A woman's value extends beyond beauty and physicality. With that said, if one capitalizes on beauty and physicality to the exclusion of everything else ... that's not healthy. If there has been damage done here, it's not from the procedure. The damage likely existed before. The damage was likely exacerbated by a career in modeling. Linda, honey, love yourself for something other than the attention that you had as a celebrity model. You have a child who needs you. There are no doubt many people you can help if you can recover from this thing the right way, too. Love is a choice sometimes, so choose to love yourself and the path you're on.
This is spot on…her entire identity is centered around being the gorgeous, jaw dropping, seemingly flawless supermodel of the 90s, which worked in her favour when she was still meeting all the superficial standards established by the modeling industry. But when your entire value as a human is solely based on the degree to which you meet these standards, you‘re playing a losing game, because when you can‘t keep up with them anymore , the very same industry that gave you value and identity will discard you like garbage. And doesn’t Linda‘s situation mirror this dark reality lurking behind the glittery facade of the modeling world…
@@Lommy9999 Lipomas occur naturally. Some people are genetically predisposed to having them. I personally have three of them with one forming in early childhood. Cool Sculpting may have triggered a response by her body to develop these, but this is a way the body reacts to injury sometimes. She chose the procedure and she chose to have it done ... all at once ... in all these places.
@@dwilson284 You cannot get rid of it? So sorry to hear. I think she wasn't careful enough, but that's easy to say in hindsight. Maybe they offered her a package of several treatments for half the price? It's super expensive.
I feel so bad for her. Everyone acting like she is being superficial or unhealthy. She makes a living from her looks, she was a super model. She isn't like you and I. This literally has endangered her livelihood, not to mention her mental health. I hope she finds a solution and is able to be at peace with herself :(
It's from all the unfortunate or perfectly average looking people who have no idea how outer beauty can become such a core part of a person's identity. Especially in a person like Linda, a renowned supermodel.
It's bad and if that happened to me I'd feel awful as I also care about my look even if I don't work in fashion and I don't depend on it. But when this sort of things happen we really must understand that life is not always all about how we look like and appearance. It's hard though.
Don’t you have to sign papers before you get any type of surgery including Botox…? Aren’t there side effects or complications that could happen to all procedures like this…?
@@AgrianRamos again too much care on looks. To spend a life time and the ONLY skill one has is how they look is sad. I spend way too much time on my looks and don't get paid My point is that across the board we all as humans can do much much more with our time on this earth
This has clearly affected her well being. There must be a surgical fix for this. Either way, Linda Evangelista has always been, and will always be a beauty and fashion icon.
I feel extremely sad for her. She was a great model, and actually cherished and was proud of her status as such. On the other hand, I'm not sure if one freak accident on an individual person is worth driving a large company out of business with who knows how many job losses, THAT IS - if their claim that they have done 11000000 procedures successfully is indeed true. Freak accidents can happen during any medical procedure - one person out of ten million can go to a manicurist and end up dead due to some adverse allergic reaction they were unaware of....
I get it, for her beauty is like fingers for a pianist, line for a ballerina, foot coordination for a soccer player. As a man who had been doing some photoshoots and getting asked to do more because of the way I look, I have become more aware of my body and sometimes feelings of validation star to get link to beauty and to stay in shape and to be more and more muscular, for me it has been tough and i do it iregulary imagine been a whole time model and imagine been a woman, that's ten times the pressure. So her being the Supermodel of her era, and by knowing that she dreamed about it when she was young, even though beauty is all about Ego this must be a nightmare what is happening to her, I feel her. I know there are more Important things but from where she comes it must be hard.
Accept the fact that we all grow old.We cannot stop the process of aging.Thise days were gone a long time ago.You have the fame and money.In modeling you are employable when you are young still some middle age can still model but not the price you demand.
This sucks, it really does but it should be a cautionary tale for every young model or women out there! This is the model that said she wouldn’t get out of bed for less the 10K a day!!! That’s like asking for fate to throw you a curveball! You were gifted w/ extreme beauty and privilege your entire life and in the end it did nothing for you! You’re alone and deformed! Did you develop your personality? Did you focus on anything aside from your physical appearance??
True. I thought about that arrogant comment also, and now she doesn’t have to get out of bed at all! Karma has come back to haunt her-as it always does. This is why doctors are required to make you sign consent forms, because you must be aware that something could go wrong!
Another warning for easy fixes...fat deposits we make go away with diet and exercise. To keep beautiful body costs a lot of work especially if you are a model and want thousands of dollars for photo shoot...
No !!!! I don't care what has happened to your physique you NEVER let it affect your relationship with your child. NEVER. She needs counselling so she can make it right with her baby. THAT is what matters more than physical appearance. Get counselling Linda and move on with your life. There is so much more to life than physical perfection. Much more.
Who Cares...Poor Poor Me, What about people out there with Blindness, Cancer, Our wounded Veterans ...People with REAL issues, You are getting "old" poor you . poor baby... Geez, Go away.
We love you, Linda. You're beautiful! You've been/are the muse for so many incredible artistic photos. Tell your story at your own pace, time, and on your terms. We support you! After reading some of the comments, I realized MANY people don't really understand how hard being a working model was/is. So don't let no one tell you how you "should" feel. Sending you healing hugs!
Yes, she is still very beautiful and courageous lady. I send her hugs and positive energy whereever she may be. You are still gorgeous, Linda. Walk with your head up high and find that little girl in you and be kind to her. That little girl deserves it. I love you, Linda ❤
Your son wants his mom and I guarantee he doesn't care what you look like. I hope she has found help with the pain. No-one would want this to have this happen to them. I doubt she's still modelling as a career though. I haven't seen her in anything and i love the fashion world. Noemi is the only one from the 90s I've seen working out there.
I am very sorry this happened to her. No one should have to deal with this. Although she is incredibly beautiful regardless whether she has some lumps and bumps of fat. I welcome her to the community of women who are not super models. Most of us women are in fact shorter fatter and average looking. But we are mothers, wives, workers and good neighbors. We will never be remembered for our “ looks” but will be remembered for the love and care we gave to others. The old line “Beauty doesn’t last but good cookin’ do” is a reminder of this.
The procedure didn't fail. She failed to see herself as a human being that ages and kept smoking and living horrible. Other models married and went on to work. She sat around eating and milking a man having child out of wedlock and causing scandel. Linda was one of my top SUPERMODELS SHE was unemployed due to old age and not keeping herself healthy. So now she blames a procedure that came with risks. I bet her model friends are shaking them head and saying she ate too much.
I cannot believe this vain woman has let a cosmetic procedure, that she chose to have, effect her relationship with her son. Ladies, we all age and turn into our grandmothers!!. Go forward gracefully and be okay with what you see in the mirror. I think the missing piece here is loving your Soul, loving yourself.
Honestly, she's a diva trying to look perfect and getting mad that a procedure caused a rare but possible side effect. Aging naturally is much better than putting yourself through this stuff. I hope she doesn't sue me for say that.
Wow, the judgemental comments are disgusting. I sincerely hope she is able to work on her depression and spread awareness of the complications of these sort of procedures. Women are judged harshly on how they look and then we blame them when they turn to cosmetic surgery. Let's instead hold each other up instead of shaming victims.
It sounds like she's blaming others for not aging well. Healthy diet and exercise is the only way to maintain mam. 50 million dollars, please! Walmart is hiring.
This is terrible what has happened, but you are the only one responsible for your happiness not them. They did not take away your joy - they did not cripple you - they did not blind you - you can still function & communicate your feelings - you need to give your best to and for yourself and for your son. Don't let this procedure take away your happiness or joy. Many people have faired far worse in life - look at Amy Purdy ---she is making the most out of her life and now inspiring others. People will love you regardless HONESTLY.....and if anyone judges you they are not your friend or worth your time. Focus on the good in your life. You were in a business that is based on looks which is so superficial and is not real anyway.
The fashion/modeling industry is what has truly broken her inside! In 2022, plus size models and body positivity are more celebrated! She’s from a different era though!
Honestly, that "body positivity" crap is just virtue signaling. Models have always been very thin because clothes are thought to hang nicely on a tall/thin body. It's like a mannequin come to life.
I honestly don't see any disfigured parts. She looks old and added weight. Disfigurement for me is the result of a freak accident that will leave the person unrecognizable.
She is going to let that ruin her life? Don't all cosmetic procedures come with risks though? I think coolsculpting works the way it is intended for MOST people but unfortunately she was one of the few whose body responded differently.
She was never pretty. She had a unique and sexy face in her 20s but age is an enemy. She did not take care of her body and 20 years later like most humans she gained 1lb per year… maybe 2lbs per year. She tried a quick fix to make her look 20 again and blames the fad product. Wake up people! If you want to look 20 then you need to eat healthy and go to gym constantly. You cant wait 20 years after you gained 20-40lbs and then think you can miraculously look young again.
Between her and people who've been really disfigured from say being attacked by animals, thrown burning oil at, war scars, she looks incredible. Stop complaining lady!!!
Well said. I just watched a commercial for Mercy Ships where surgeons travel the globe trying to repair children and adults who are deformed by enormous facial and bodily tumors that leave them unable to walk or talk. Many of the children are born that way. They suffer not only horrible disfigurations but from crippling poverty. Sorry if I can't get to distraught by a wealthy, privileged ex-model who aged and got fat. Famous designers will no longer dress her. Boo hoo. That said, hopefully she is raising awareness about the futility of investing all of one's happiness in how hot they look, which is to say how much hotter they look than others. May we all learn to value the things that are truly important in life.
Stop trying these procedures. Complications and death is very common in cosmetic procedures. They know this. So they take the risk knowingly. I guess they’re choosing to learn from painful consequences. She’ll learn from experiencing this, hopefully. It’s for your own good when you learn and move on. Hopefully she’ll get mature about her looks
Linda was absolutely beautiful back in the 90’s. Unfortunately, beauty doesn’t buy common sense. She didn’t need the surgery. What a waste and what an idiot to have that done too herself.
You ARE beautiful. Go through the very painful stages of mourning. Then...go through the stages of Blessing and Thankfulness. Bless you God for...Thank you God that for my precious son... Then ask and receive healing. Cry, shout, He can handle it. He is your Heavenly Father and He loves you unconditionally. Then you start the road to recovery. You can DO IT! You are NOT ALONE. WE APPRECIATE YOU! You are BEAUTIFUL INSIDE & OUT! Teach your son this. I'll be praying for you sis. Godspeed.
I love her hair cut, her face still looks stunning and lovely, she still has loads of style. I wish I could look this lovely at 60. Linda girl, you need to stop obsessing over what is no more and stop being so hard on yourself. You look beautiful, screw Versace _if they can't dress the body of a 60 year old woman then they have no business staying in business anyway! A good stylist should be able to dress anyone! If they can only dress one body type than they are not designers, but limited, idiot dictators. It's their short coming, ineptitude and incompetence, that they can only dress one body type, not yours _not ours! Human beings come in all shapes, and most also go through different shapes all through the course of their lives _if these so called designers can only dress one of those then, quite frankly, they are the ones who are profoundly inept!! You are not that industry, there is way more to you than what you have been doing for a job. Your job is not you, it's just what you have done for this one ride. There is way more to you than taking pretty pictures, so maybe you should now take this as an opportunity to focus on finding out who you are outside the industry _find something else to do with your gift of life, enjoy the new beautiful you, and the rest of your life. Happiness really is a choice, so is suffering.
Well,there is always a big price to pay to keep you from looking old and saggy like Linda Evangelista is.Living in fame often leads to curse as many say.Vanity has a bigger price because it's the thing that disconnects people to what is CONTENTMENT,ACCEPTANCE, and REAL LIVING
Haha 😂 I know. It’s so lame. Humans are hilariously dumb. I HATE the way people call it vanity, it’s low self esteem! Shit! You’re overly concerned about your looks not confident in them or yourself so you are insecure and a geek.
Well I am really not a fan of this treatment....I think there is alternative treatments that has no such side effects. I feel for her. We buy smartphones, Ipads ect becouse everything evolves..this treatment is the same you do it as it makes life convienient..why not use it to fight aging if you can. Ect why write letters if you can send messages.
I grew watching this women in every magazine cover you can imagine, I personally thought she was the most beautiful women was ever created, my gos she must be feeling terrible from being hero to zero, god bless her
Beauty is far more important than a college degree till around your early 50's. After that, father time switches that equation: A college degree becomes far more valuable than your fading beauty. At around this time, you better hope you got a decent degree in order to sustain the lifestyle you want.
Never heard of it til now. "Cool Sculpting". She did it to her face to reduce fat....don't kow how she's doig today...Heard in another videot hat she did numors more plastic surgeries to try to fix the side-affect of this procedure. I guess she was desparate...risking further damage.... plastic surguries are always risky. You're putting foreign products ...man made...into an organic body. Many times rejecting that material. Most boob jobs don't turn out well for example (women who get them are usually low in body fat to begin with ...so there's no fat to make the "sacks' look natural...most of the time it looks like "2 bowls" ).... As hard as it is for some...best to try to "age gracfully/naturally"....no matter what....vs dealing with a compication (s).
How could she be so naive?! You can't go on being what you have been! She has been a beauty icon for 20 years. But it seems it wasn't enough. She might be very empty inside to still cling to an esthetic appearance! She enjoyed a very privileged life; it's time to redistribute. She could embrace many causes as the world falls apart. I decline the invitation to her *pity party*.
I dont think ppl realize she didnt just gain weight and not coping with aging..she went in thinking she would remove a little pudge but the reaction she had left her 10 times larger. The reaction simulates MORE growth thats apparently hard to remove because the cells come back
This is something they are very upfront about and you sign forms that you understand this can happen, its why i didnt do it. Also she underwent 7 rounds, this is a lot. She can have Lipo to undo this damage. I am not sure why she has not. Maybe she just wants to sue for the big bucks. She is suing for economic loss when she had gained so much weight it had rendered her unmarketable to begin with, so what did she lose
Sorry she did that to herself except yourself, we can't be perfect all the times unless you have loads of💰💰💰if you're gonna look at yourself see 1 line on your face, it's the end of the world, you need to fix it, I'm 62 got a few lines so what I would hate for someone to say your hands, arms neck bum tell a different story you cannot hide everything 👀👀
Sometimes it is best to leave perfection alone.
Yes Ma’am
And just age gracefully....

There are no doubt many people you can help if you can recover from this thing the right way, too. Love is a choice sometimes, so choose to love yourself and the path you're on.
This is spot on…her entire identity is centered around being the gorgeous, jaw dropping, seemingly flawless supermodel of the 90s, which worked in her favour when she was still meeting all the superficial standards established by the modeling industry. But when your entire value as a human is solely based on the degree to which you meet these standards, you‘re playing a losing game, because when you can‘t keep up with them anymore , the very same industry that gave you value and identity will discard you like garbage.
And doesn’t Linda‘s situation mirror this dark reality lurking behind the glittery facade of the modeling world…
No. The procedure caused hard big chunks all over her body including her chin.
Any harm done to the body is horrible. And has nothing to do with beauty or appearance. She has deformaties. Regardless of being a model.
@@Lommy9999 Lipomas occur naturally. Some people are genetically predisposed to having them. I personally have three of them with one forming in early childhood. Cool Sculpting may have triggered a response by her body to develop these, but this is a way the body reacts to injury sometimes. She chose the procedure and she chose to have it done ... all at once ... in all these places.
@@dwilson284 You cannot get rid of it? So sorry to hear. I think she wasn't careful enough, but that's easy to say in hindsight. Maybe they offered her a package of several treatments for half the price? It's super expensive.
I feel so bad for her. Everyone acting like she is being superficial or unhealthy. She makes a living from her looks, she was a super model. She isn't like you and I. This literally has endangered her livelihood, not to mention her mental health. I hope she finds a solution and is able to be at peace with herself :(
Many people are heartless and shallow. I wish Linda all the best.
It's from all the unfortunate or perfectly average looking people who have no idea how outer beauty can become such a core part of a person's identity. Especially in a person like Linda, a renowned supermodel.
It's bad and if that happened to me I'd feel awful as I also care about my look even if I don't work in fashion and I don't depend on it. But when this sort of things happen we really must understand that life is not always all about how we look like and appearance. It's hard though.
Don’t you have to sign papers before you get any type of surgery including Botox…? Aren’t there side effects or complications that could happen to all procedures like this…?
Yes they are.
Yes and Triple yes. The people who do this are highly aware
YES, YES, YES
We care, myself included, way to much about looks
that was her job,
@@AgrianRamos again too much care on looks. To spend a life time and the ONLY skill one has is how they look is sad. I spend way too much time on my looks and don't get paid
My point is that across the board we all as humans can do much much more with our time on this earth
At this point, I think you people should realize that you have some sort of mental illness. You don’t do anything else. You’re not living.
She looks beautiful for someone closer to 70 YO than 20
This has clearly affected her well being. There must be a surgical fix for this. Either way, Linda Evangelista has always been, and will always be a beauty and fashion icon.
that's what happens when you take shortcuts, you can't substitute working out whether it's running, weight training, etc.
One of the biggest models but she couldn't age naturally?
Ok, fine but the price of her vanity is too much and unfair.
I feel extremely sad for her. She was a great model, and actually cherished and was proud of her status as such. On the other hand, I'm not sure if one freak accident on an individual person is worth driving a large company out of business with who knows how many job losses, THAT IS - if their claim that they have done 11000000 procedures successfully is indeed true. Freak accidents can happen during any medical procedure - one person out of ten million can go to a manicurist and end up dead due to some adverse allergic reaction they were unaware of....
How will this put a billion(s) dollar company out of business? There's insurance for claims like this.....
I get it, for her beauty is like fingers for a pianist, line for a ballerina, foot coordination for a soccer player. As a man who had been doing some photoshoots and getting asked to do more because of the way I look, I have become more aware of my body and sometimes feelings of validation star to get link to beauty and to stay in shape and to be more and more muscular, for me it has been tough and i do it iregulary imagine been a whole time model and imagine been a woman, that's ten times the pressure. So her being the Supermodel of her era, and by knowing that she dreamed about it when she was young, even though beauty is all about Ego this must be a nightmare what is happening to her, I feel her. I know there are more Important things but from where she comes it must be hard.
Accept the fact that we all grow old.We cannot stop the process of aging.Thise days were gone a long time ago.You have the fame and money.In modeling you are employable when you are young still some middle age can still model but not the price you demand.
So sorry for Linda, meanwhile I could never afford such treatment so might not go thru all that, wishing Linda the very best obviously 💯🙏🤞🏻🙌🏻💪🏼
You are right.
She could always take advantage of the Body Positive Movement and continue her career like that. She is still Linda Evangelista after all!
I know…the path is already laid out for her
This sucks, it really does but it should be a cautionary tale for every young model or women out there! This is the model that said she wouldn’t get out of bed for less the 10K a day!!! That’s like asking for fate to throw you a curveball! You were gifted w/ extreme beauty and privilege your entire life and in the end it did nothing for you! You’re alone and deformed! Did you develop your personality? Did you focus on anything aside from your physical appearance??
True. I thought about that arrogant comment also, and now she doesn’t have to get out of bed at all! Karma has come back to haunt her-as it always does. This is why doctors are required to make you sign consent forms, because you must be aware that something could go wrong!
Another warning for easy fixes...fat deposits we make go away with diet and exercise. To keep beautiful body costs a lot of work especially if you are a model and want thousands of dollars for photo shoot...
There are people dying in the world ffs 🤦♂️
When you do this (plastic surgery), you are agreeing to the gamble. People DIE. Now she looks like a “normal 50 year old”. Get over it.
She’s still a beautiful woman, live your life ❤
Linda Evangelista is an icon and will always be one of the best supermodels ever often called the chameleon!
Icon of what? Did she create something? She choose surgery, nobody forced her. Karma vs karma
They dont really show what she looks like now.
No !!!! I don't care what has happened to your physique you NEVER let it affect your relationship with your child. NEVER. She needs counselling so she can make it right with her baby. THAT is what matters more than physical appearance. Get counselling Linda and move on with your life. There is so much more to life than physical perfection. Much more.
Who Cares...Poor Poor Me, What about people out there with Blindness, Cancer, Our wounded Veterans ...People with REAL issues, You are getting "old" poor you . poor baby... Geez, Go away.
We love you, Linda. You're beautiful! You've been/are the muse for so many incredible artistic photos. Tell your story at your own pace, time, and on your terms. We support you! After reading some of the comments, I realized MANY people don't really understand how hard being a working model was/is. So don't let no one tell you how you "should" feel. Sending you healing hugs!
Yes, she is still very beautiful and courageous lady. I send her hugs and positive energy whereever she may be. You are still gorgeous, Linda. Walk with your head up high and find that little girl in you and be kind to her. That little girl deserves it. I love you, Linda ❤
Yes, it must be really tough being a working model who doesn't want to get out of bed for less than $10,000. Poor baby.
Somebody should tell her, people tend to age. You cant freeze time.
Fat freezing or not.
The attempts to freeze time look hilarious!
Your son wants his mom and I guarantee he doesn't care what you look like. I hope she has found help with the pain. No-one would want this to have this happen to them. I doubt she's still modelling as a career though. I haven't seen her in anything and i love the fashion world. Noemi is the only one from the 90s I've seen working out there.
I am very sorry this happened to her. No one should have to deal with this. Although she is incredibly beautiful regardless whether she has some lumps and bumps of fat. I welcome her to the community of women who are not super models. Most of us women are in fact shorter fatter and average looking. But we are mothers, wives, workers and good neighbors. We will never be remembered for our “ looks” but will be remembered for the love and care we gave to others. The old line “Beauty doesn’t last but good cookin’ do” is a reminder of this.
The procedure didn't fail. She failed to see herself as a human being that ages and kept smoking and living horrible. Other models married and went on to work. She sat around eating and milking a man having child out of wedlock and causing scandel. Linda was one of my top SUPERMODELS
SHE was unemployed due to old age and not keeping herself healthy. So now she blames a procedure that came with risks. I bet her model friends are shaking them head and saying she ate too much.
I cannot believe this vain woman has let a cosmetic procedure, that she chose to have, effect her relationship with her son. Ladies, we all age and turn into our grandmothers!!. Go forward gracefully and be okay with what you see in the mirror. I think the missing piece here is loving your Soul, loving yourself.
Learn to love yourself! People.
Honestly, she's a diva trying to look perfect and getting mad that a procedure caused a rare but possible side effect. Aging naturally is much better than putting yourself through this stuff. I hope she doesn't sue me for say that.
Wow, the judgemental comments are disgusting. I sincerely hope she is able to work on her depression and spread awareness of the complications of these sort of procedures. Women are judged harshly on how they look and then we blame them when they turn to cosmetic surgery. Let's instead hold each other up instead of shaming victims.
It sounds like she's blaming others for not aging well. Healthy diet and exercise is the only way to maintain mam. 50 million dollars, please! Walmart is hiring.
It'sa RISK not a botched ..so sorry Linda ..You still beautiful .
I think she's pretty selfish and entitled. Try covering some real news.
She must get over herself. Her pretty days are over and must focus on her personality like the rest of us.
She is still beautiful and still has a beautiful face, screw Versage and modeling.
This is terrible what has happened, but you are the only one responsible for your happiness not them. They did not take away your joy - they did not cripple you - they did not blind you - you can still function & communicate your feelings - you need to give your best to and for yourself and for your son. Don't let this procedure take away your happiness or joy. Many people have faired far worse in life - look at Amy Purdy ---she is making the most out of her life and now inspiring others. People will love you regardless HONESTLY.....and if anyone judges you they are not your friend or worth your time. Focus on the good in your life. You were in a business that is based on looks which is so superficial and is not real anyway.
You're right.I wanna be your friend.
EXACTLY! WELL SAID!
She is obviously overacting her pain to get sympathy points and therefore justify and win her legal case
The fashion/modeling industry is what has truly broken her inside! In 2022, plus size models and body positivity are more celebrated! She’s from a different era though!
Honestly, that "body positivity" crap is just virtue signaling. Models have always been very thin because clothes are thought to hang nicely on a tall/thin body. It's like a mannequin come to life.
🍀 she was & is still pretty! But whatever happened to plain ole gym/excercise to get the weight off ?!
I honestly don't see any disfigured parts. She looks old and added weight. Disfigurement for me is the result of a freak accident that will leave the person unrecognizable.
She speaks exactly how Oprah did a piece YRS AGO on “when beauty fades”. Not to say she doesn’t have a legitimate c/o pain.
She is going to let that ruin her life? Don't all cosmetic procedures come with risks though? I think coolsculpting works the way it is intended for MOST people but unfortunately she was one of the few whose body responded differently.
People got real problems and she’s crying
This is so sad. I never thought she had a pretty face though
She sounds like a spoiled diva with that recording but I get it having come from a world that focuses solely on looks.
Things will get better Linda.
She was never pretty. She had a unique and sexy face in her 20s but age is an enemy.
She did not take care of her body and 20 years later like most humans she gained 1lb per year… maybe 2lbs per year.
She tried a quick fix to make her look 20 again and blames the fad product.
Wake up people! If you want to look 20 then you need to eat healthy and go to gym constantly. You cant wait 20 years after you gained 20-40lbs and then think you can miraculously look young again.
Ahe found a way to get attention thats all that matters 🤣
Between her and people who've been really disfigured from say being attacked by animals, thrown burning oil at, war scars, she looks incredible. Stop complaining lady!!!
Well said. I just watched a commercial for Mercy Ships where surgeons travel the globe trying to repair children and adults who are deformed by enormous facial and bodily tumors that leave them unable to walk or talk. Many of the children are born that way. They suffer not only horrible disfigurations but from crippling poverty.
Sorry if I can't get to distraught by a wealthy, privileged ex-model who aged and got fat. Famous designers will no longer dress her. Boo hoo. That said, hopefully she is raising awareness about the futility of investing all of one's happiness in how hot they look, which is to say how much hotter they look than others. May we all learn to value the things that are truly important in life.
She is 56 and looks like a 56 year old woman but I guess she can’t deal with it.
Very sad. Do not mock her. I feel her pain. They caused crazy bumps all over her body that she can never get rid of.
She probably signed consent forms that contained that this can be a very rare side effect
Stop trying these procedures. Complications and death is very common in cosmetic procedures. They know this. So they take the risk knowingly. I guess they’re choosing to learn from painful consequences. She’ll learn from experiencing this, hopefully. It’s for your own good when you learn and move on. Hopefully she’ll get mature about her looks
Karma vs karma
She said herself she did it because she was vain.
Hang in there Linda. Praying you will receive a peace of mind, and you will be healed. In Jesus Holy name Amen - miracles
She is very very good looking but true beauty is from within and especially with ageing.
Vain and foolish mortal woman.
It didn't make her fat
She is still Beautiful. Its sad what happened to her.
Sad? I would say vanity and egocentrism.
She wasn't injured!!She's just getting old and fat!!!!!
Linda was absolutely beautiful back in the 90’s.
Unfortunately, beauty doesn’t buy common sense. She didn’t need the surgery. What a waste and what an idiot to have that done too herself.
You ARE beautiful. Go through the very painful stages of mourning. Then...go through the stages of Blessing and Thankfulness. Bless you God for...Thank you God that for my precious son...
Then ask and receive healing. Cry, shout, He can handle it. He is your Heavenly Father and He loves you unconditionally. Then you start the road to recovery. You can DO IT! You are NOT ALONE. WE APPRECIATE YOU! You are BEAUTIFUL INSIDE & OUT!
Teach your son this. I'll be praying for you sis. Godspeed.
I love her hair cut, her face still looks stunning and lovely, she still has loads of style. I wish I could look this lovely at 60. Linda girl, you need to stop obsessing over what is no more and stop being so hard on yourself. You look beautiful, screw Versace _if they can't dress the body of a 60 year old woman then they have no business staying in business anyway! A good stylist should be able to dress anyone! If they can only dress one body type than they are not designers, but limited, idiot dictators. It's their short coming, ineptitude and incompetence, that they can only dress one body type, not yours _not ours! Human beings come in all shapes, and most also go through different shapes all through the course of their lives _if these so called designers can only dress one of those then, quite frankly, they are the ones who are profoundly inept!! You are not that industry, there is way more to you than what you have been doing for a job. Your job is not you, it's just what you have done for this one ride. There is way more to you than taking pretty pictures, so maybe you should now take this as an opportunity to focus on finding out who you are outside the industry _find something else to do with your gift of life, enjoy the new beautiful you, and the rest of your life. Happiness really is a choice, so is suffering.
Well,there is always a big price to pay to keep you from looking old and saggy like Linda Evangelista is.Living in fame often leads to curse as many say.Vanity has a bigger price because it's the thing that disconnects people to what is CONTENTMENT,ACCEPTANCE, and REAL LIVING
Haha 😂 I know. It’s so lame. Humans are hilariously dumb. I HATE the way people call it vanity, it’s low self esteem! Shit! You’re overly concerned about your looks not confident in them or yourself so you are insecure and a geek.
Well I am really not a fan of this treatment....I think there is alternative treatments that has no such side effects. I feel for her. We buy smartphones, Ipads ect becouse everything evolves..this treatment is the same you do it as it makes life convienient..why not use it to fight aging if you can. Ect why write letters if you can send messages.
I grew watching this women in every magazine cover you can imagine, I personally thought she was the most beautiful women was ever created, my gos she must be feeling terrible from being hero to zero, god bless her
The shade😂
Talks like a spoiled rich teenager.
Haha it gets so old. They all seem to want to remain a child. The baby talking voice, the obsession with cosmetic procedures, it’s so old!
Beauty is far more important than a college degree till around your early 50's. After that, father time switches that equation: A college degree becomes far more valuable than your fading beauty. At around this time, you better hope you got a decent degree in order to sustain the lifestyle you want.
The number ONE always sempre love linda❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😘😘😘😘😘🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Love from your hometowm baby doll.There will never be another you.💋❤
Never heard of it til now. "Cool Sculpting". She did it to her face to reduce fat....don't kow how she's doig today...Heard in another videot hat she did numors more plastic surgeries to try to fix the side-affect of this procedure. I guess she was desparate...risking further damage....
plastic surguries are always risky. You're putting foreign products ...man made...into an organic body. Many times rejecting that material. Most boob jobs don't turn out well for example (women who get them are usually low in body fat to begin with ...so there's no fat to make the "sacks' look natural...most of the time it looks like "2 bowls" )....
As hard as it is for some...best to try to "age gracfully/naturally"....no matter what....vs dealing with a compication (s).
How could she be so naive?! You can't go on being what you have been! She has been a beauty icon for 20 years. But it seems it wasn't enough. She might be very empty inside to still cling to an esthetic appearance! She enjoyed a very privileged life; it's time to redistribute. She could embrace many causes as the world falls apart.
I decline the invitation to her *pity party*.
She’s still beautiful
Hey Linda! F**k Versace if he won’t dress you!! You MADE him!! And we stand by you! ❤❤❤
People still love for who you are, life not always light, your heart must be matters, ❤❤❤
I dont think ppl realize she didnt just gain weight and not coping with aging..she went in thinking she would remove a little pudge but the reaction she had left her 10 times larger. The reaction simulates MORE growth thats apparently hard to remove because the cells come back
Oh how tragic. You have had such a hard and terrible life. I can't imagine how awful it was to be penniless and ignored. How utterly pathetic.
This is something they are very upfront about and you sign forms that you understand this can happen, its why i didnt do it. Also she underwent 7 rounds, this is a lot. She can have Lipo to undo this damage. I am not sure why she has not. Maybe she just wants to sue for the big bucks. She is suing for economic loss when she had gained so much weight it had rendered her unmarketable to begin with, so what did she lose
Sorry she did that to herself except yourself, we can't be perfect all the times unless you have loads of💰💰💰if you're gonna look at yourself see 1 line on your face, it's the end of the world, you need to fix it, I'm 62 got a few lines so what I would hate for someone to say your hands, arms neck bum tell a different story you cannot hide everything 👀👀
