This Musical Ad From a Plastic Surgery Supergroup Is Face-Melting

"Are you one of the boring people who don't want to be beautiful? Because everyone can be beautiful when you're made—of PLASTIC!"

Well, I have to admit, I'm feeling pretty boring right now after watching this half music video, half commercial for a place called Persky Sunder Plastic Surgery. The "song" touting the miracles of plastic surgery features The Plastics, made up of some pretty extreme surgery-seekers.

There's Venus D'Lite, a contestant on RuPaul's drag race; Toby Sheldon, who spent $100,000 to look like Justin Bieber; and Kitty Jay, who spent $25,000 to look like Jennifer Lawrence (but came out more like Amanda Bynes).

If you haven't pressed play yet, nothing else I say could possibly help prepare you for what's to come.

Jennifer Lawrence’s New Dior Ads: Totally Gorgeous, or a Photoshopped Mess?

You might think that Dior, after paying Jennifer Lawrence a lot of money to be an endorser, would want the woman in its new ad to look pretty obviously like Jennifer Lawrence. But not everyone is convinced she does.

The print ad above, featuring the actress, is drawing praise, but also some criticism for excessive Photoshopping. It's not on the usual social-ethical grounds but because, as Emily Leaman over at Philly Magazine suggests, the ad looks more like a "pre-pubescent 12-year-old boy than the strong, broad-shouldered, post-pubscent Jennifer Lawrence we know in movies like Silver Linings Playbook and The Hunger Games."

That's a bit of a rhetorical stretch, but you might find yourself blinking hard once or twice before you realize who it is. In reality, it's pretty clearly her—especially when you compare it to some of her early modeling photos. But it is fair to say that between the aggressive retouching (which she tends not to mind) and the haute trappings, Lawrence doesn't look much like the straight-talking girl next door image she's grown into.

Jessie Heyman over at Huffington Post, for her part, thinks Dior's new Lawrence looks like Leonardo DiCaprio circa Titanic. Then again, that might be a compliment … he was one of the prettiest young women in Hollywood.

These ‘Honest’ Posters for Oscar Nominees Might Be Better Than the Real Ads

Sometimes, parody posters actually make you want to see a movie more than the real ads do. That's definitely the case with a few of these "honest" Photoshop recasts of Acadamy Award Best Picture nominees from College Humor.

Specifically, American Hustle might have done even better at the box office if it were really called "Jennifer Lawrence" and featured the tagline "wigs, tans, boobs."

Check out a few of the parodies below and the full gallery on College Humor.
