McLendon-Covey’s comment section quickly flooded with accolades for her openness. But she’s not the first celebrity to candidly reference the cosmetic work she’s had done. Last year, Kylie Jenner went viral for sharing the details (surgeon and sizing included) of her breast augmentation. Olympian Simone Biles followed suit, also sharing that she’d had a blepharoplasty. Jennifer Lawrence, Jane Fonda, Cardi B, and plenty of other celebs have also gotten real about going under the knife.
McLendon-Covey’s Bridesmaids crew did not acknowledge her absence onstage. Wiig opened the category saying, “We are so happy to all be here together tonight,” joking, “I cannot believe that it’s been 15 years. Now, we are not good with numbers, but we figured out backstage that means we shot this movie in 1883.” And while the squad wasn’t complete without McLendon-Covey’s Rita, we’d like to think her puffy selfie was well received in the group chat.
