I was on http://www.toyas-world.net reading a post about a photo shoot Alexandra Burke did for Marie Claire recently and was somewhat offended when one person commented that she needed a nose job and exclaimed that they meant it in "the nicest way possible." They even proceeded to post a before and after...

I'll admit, the "nose job" does give Alexandra a different look, but she ends up looking less like herself and more like a black version of Esmee Denters.

Personally, I'd like to know what people’s obsession is with the superficial? Is it not possible for people to be happy with the way they are, or to be happy with how other people are? Alexandra is a very beautiful woman and honestly doesn’t need to change a thing. If anything, people should change their superficial ways.

Maybe then the extremely talented artists who might never be discovered simply because they aren’t the most attractive might have a better chance at living their dreams… The industry knows how superficial the human race is, but it’s just ridiculously selfish of anyone to ask anyone else to get a nose job just because they think it’d make them more appealing to look at…

What do YOU think?

There is no "should" in this context.

That's they way God made her, so she's just fine.

I mean, if she wants to get one that's ok, but she's not obligated to..

I get so annoyed when I read comments like that. I see superficial comments like that all the time. I always see harsh comments about Lady Gaga and to me I don't think she is that ugly. But some people act like she is so ugly as if she looks like a monster or something it's absurd.

I believe that the people who post or say these comments are the ones that are unhappy with themselves and showing their insecurities. People need to realize that nobody is perfect, I've seen people that get plastic surgery just to upgrade their looks and they end up looking much WORSE then how they look before. I basically blame hollywood and the media, the stuff you see on TV and magazines people think they need to look like that and with the magazines alot of the pictures are altered, people don't realize that.

She doesn't need to change a thing about herself.

Very well-said! (^_^)

noo!!! shes fine the way she is!

ive never even heard her name before so YES! maybe if she did, i would have known her at this point.

If she wants to get one, go ahead. It would help but only if she wants to get one.

She hasn't yet released an album, but she's the winner of the most recent season of X-Factor in the UK. I'm not sure how you haven't heard of her yet, but no nose job is going to change that... You've heard of her now, without the nose job, so your logic is extremely flawed. Superficial things don't matter as much as people make them out to... when will people realize that?

I don't think anyone told her to get one. She hasn't, and I honestly don't think she needs one.

Not really. I think she's beautiful already.

No, she looks good, and there's not that much difference.

You know what she should do? Wear some sort of cartoon nose...


She looks AOK and above for me...

Ugh @ humans..... She is gorgeous the way she is.... And if Dolce & Gabanna dont mind why should everyone else.

What's with the "should" in the title?

A "nose job" is not a must, but a want. It's not like just because some people doesn't like something about you, it doesn't mean you have to change it. It could be a flaw or something but that is what you are made of, and you should be proud of it.

i'm pretty sure you haven't seen Keri Hilson's nose yet. But i don't think they should get a nose job, they're fine

No I don't believe people should mutate there bodies.
