Are you talking about implants or falsies? I hope a girl that young wouldn’t get implants. Falsies I can see. Also I think a lot has to do with the dresses. Look at Christina Appelgate. On _Married with Children_ she looked like she had big ones. But on _Jessie(sp?)_ they look smaller. Same for that girl who was on _Unhappily Ever After_ you know the red head. She doesn’t look anywhere nearly as stacked now that she is on _Norm_. And Oprah goes from big to little to big to little depending on weight. ---

Mark, yes that’s my main point. If Britney has implants, I think it is awful for a teenager to get them. She is a bad role model. I heard Christina Aguilera’s father is from Ecaudor, but served in the US Army. Apparently, he was born in Ecaudor but immigrated to NYC. ---

Just for the record, you can do some amazing things with foundation garments. With a wonderbra and those rubber cup-filling push-up falsie thingies, you could make Ally McBeal look voluptuous. Also, you can do many tricks with make-up and lighting. That being said, I’ll bet they’re fake. ---

LOok at the nipples, if they are in the right place they are real. But at the Bali store you can buy fake breast implants, rubber, with real nipples for about $29. weird. ---

And Handy you would have come by this piece of informaton how? I would hope that no plastic surgeon would put implants into a 17 year old. I have not seen her lately, but she was stacked at 17, I would think this would not only be illegal to do such surgery to a minor, but it also extremely unethical IMHO. Jeffery ---

Handy, those model breasts are likely for women who have had mastectomies - not for the general populace to goof around with. Also, having nipples in the “right place” doesn’t mean a thing; implants are slipped between the existing breast tissue and the chest muscles over the rib cage, so nipples shouldn’t be moving anywhere post-surgery. One sure-fire way to tell: breasts with implants keep their shape no matter how a woman moves, i.e., the breasts don’t appear to respond to the efffects of gravity, particularly when a woman is lying on her back. Another probable tip-off: the woman’s breasts are as round as softballs (most visible when the woman is wearing a bikini or lingerie). ---

This reminds of that Seinfeld episode with Teri Hatcher. They were trying to figure out it if she had implants or not. Finally, Elaine grabbed them in ladies suana. Funny stuff! So, what do you think…Teri Hatcher…implants or real? And whatever happened to her? Since Superman she hasn’t done much. ---

I haven’t seen it yet, but I think Hatcher was a Bond girl in the most recent one… ---

Not that anybody would care but you can judge for yourself if Teri’s rack is real… just go rent yourself a copy of Cool Surface. Crappy film, but Teri does bear her breasts… making the film worth my money… -Airbert ---

> [@](#): > > LOok at the nipples, if they are in the right place they are real. What exactly is the “right place”? Last I checked, breasts came in all different shapes and sizes, and I wasn’t aware there was one “right place” for the nipples to be. > [@](#): > > Another probable tip-off: the woman’s breasts are as round as softballs Unless she got the ‘teardrop’ shaped ones. > [@](#): > > I would think this would not only be illegal to do such surgery to a minor, but it also extremely unethical IMHO. And most plastic surgeons seem agree. However, they do say that they would only consider giving implants to minors who have only one breast develop, or have lost one to cancer. But it’s amazing what money can get you. And besides, who would tell? Spears must know what it would do to career if she came out and said “Yes, I got implants.” And we know the doctor won’t, or he’ll get sued for breaking doctor patient confidentiality. When the rumours first started circulating, Spears neither confirmed nor denied when asked about it. She said “I think that’s too personal to answer, but I don’t think there’s anything wrong with [implants].” Later, she finally denied getting implants. Not that should would come out and admit it, of course. Incidentally, the boobie rumours started about the same time that she recovered from that ‘knee surgery’ she went in for. I can understand why parents might get upset if their young girls look to Spears as a role model, but why does anyone really care? And who cares if she bleaches her hair? Aren’t there more interesting things to ponder? ---
