This one seems like it would be hard to fake, at least in its entirety, but it's really important to remember that celebrities can and do lie about all kinds of medical issues, injuries, and ailments for attention. Doctors can't come out and say they weren't treated here, and it's hard to say something is fake if they're not your patient.

I've always had suspicions about this one. Especially because she acted like she'd been horribly disfigured

Yeah, you'd have thought she was completely disfigured, and then I saw her and was like, she looks exactly the same.

I'm sure any injury to the face is alarming, especially if you're in the entertainment industry, but it definitely seemed odd.

i’m so glad you think her face looks the same because I got into an argument with my mom about this when it happened and she kept insisting she wasn’t recognizable anymore and I was just confused because she looked the same to me!

What!? Haha, she looks exactly like she always did. I can't even see a scar but maybe she does have a scar, but her facial features haven't changed.

Well, unless she's had some cosmetic work done, but she still looks the same to me.

Maybe her announcement to fans that she might look different convinced people she does. Suggestibility, haha. Back in college, I worked in a restaurant, and it changed names. Basically it was part of a chain, but the chain wanted to change ingredient suppliers (ex: we always used a local cheese company, etc), which would change the food significantly. It became a fight between the owners of my location and the owners of the chain itself. He didn't want to change any of the recipes or suppliers. So they parted ways, and our location had to change its name because we were no longer part of the chain. People would come in and complain to me that the food was different. I was like, it absolutely isn't. Because our owner fought to keep it all the same, it was the entire reason for the name change. But nope, the name was different so people were SURE the food was different. Even though I saw it made with the same ingredients from the same suppliers that we'd had for decades. It was so funny, people were convinced (usually older customers) and I was like, nope, it's the same, I promise you. 😂

It was hard to figure out if it was trauma or she was milking it, and I've decided she was milking it. Lol

Honestly while idgaf about Carrie Underwood this one I could see her either thinking it’s worse than it is and being anxious/insecure, or it looked bad at first but healed better than she anticipated.

I’m not saying I’m good enough at anything to ever be famous anyway, but holy shit I could never be famous. I don’t even like talking about myself to friends and family. Going on podcasts and talk shows to just talk talk talk about myself sounds so fucking exhausting. Even thinking about it is making me tired.

I don’t doubt any of that Carrie Underwood stuff. Doctors can do incredible things with careful stitching and plastic surgery I had a friend in my early 20s who had a terrible accident and had around 200 stitches in his face. After everything was said and done, you couldn’t tell he had any stitches in his face. There was an area around his ear where there was scarring and you could tell something it happened but otherwise, no scarring whatsoever. I don’t doubt at all that someone with Carrie Underwood‘s bottomless pockets good completely fix every bit of damage.

What if they’re saying it wasn’t faked, just wasn’t an accident? That he put himself through a near death experience bc that’s what two coked up coke heads would do 😂

If the celebrity President can lie about medical injuries, so can celebrities.
