Nip and Tuck: Celebrity Plastic Surgery

From Iggy to Lil' Kim, stars who have gone under the knife.

Patti LaBelle - Miss Patti always keeps it real and has been open from the beginning that she had a nose job. She once said, “I was afraid people would be able to look at me and say, ‘Oh yeah, she had a nose job!’ I also wanted to make sure I still had a Black nose. I didn’t want to go extremes and have a very small nose.”(Photos from left: Joe McNally/Getty Images, Mireya Acierto/Getty Images)
Sandra "Pepa" Denton - Sandra "Pepa" Denton from Salt-N-Pepa got the web buzzing when her new nose popped up on her VH1 reality series. She had the tip shaved down and created more of a bridge. If it made her happy, good for her, but Pepa was just as beautiful with her original nose.(Photos from left: Ron Galella, Ltd./WireImage, Thaddaeus McAdams/Getty Images)
Queen Latifah - Queen Latifah went through breast reduction surgery, but not for cosmetic reasons. The mogul decided to reduce her cup size in 2003 due to back and shoulder pain. The talk show host did express some regret in 2007: "I miss 'em. I definitely miss 'em 'cause it's part of your body so you're used to it all your life."(Photos from left: Tomas/IMAGES/Getty Images, Bennett Raglin/Getty Images)
Star Jones - Like many Americans, Star Jones went through gastric bypass surgery due to her weight struggles. In the beginning, Jones refused to admit to the surgery, which some believed was the beginning of the end of her time on The View.(Photos from left: Ron Galella/WireImage, Bryan Bedder/Getty Images for Woman's Day)Toni Braxton - Toni Braxton admittedly had breast implants but had them removed due to complications. She told People: "Parts of me are 41 and parts of me are 20.  I will undergo nothing else...I don't want to be a turkey, stuffed and plucked and baked." The singer also allegedly had two nose jobs.(Photos from left: Ron Galella/WireImage, David Livingston/Getty Images)
