This is the drama of old age: we no longer control the head that we have“. Besides, to ensure this control, some personalities do not hesitate to use cosmetic surgery, which the Fressange deplores.”All these celebrities who claim to flourish with age … Often, they had their Botox shot! Me, I see that my eyelids fall, I have small squirrel covers that start to point … “she said. To be at peace with his physical appearance, the former model follows the precepts of a surprising spiritual figure: the leader of Tibetan Buddhism. “I am inspired by Dalai-Lama, I avoid retaining only the bad”she revealed.
