81-year-old iconic actress Kim Novak shocked the Oscars audience with her dramatically different face. She could barely move her mouth and that definitely didn’t help her present the awards. Read more about Kim’s new look, what surgeons had to say, and the Twitter fiasco that occurred after her appearance.
Kim is known for her amazing role in Alfred Hitchcock’s 1958 film Vertigo. She even won two Golden Globes back in the 1950s as World Film Favorite and Most Promising Newcomer.
She looked absolutely gorgeous in the 50s, but I guess Kim didn’t feel beautiful as she grew older.
When she went up to announce the winners for the Oscars with Matthew, she could barely move her mouth. Her face was very stiff and it didn’t look natural at all!

After Kim’s struggle presenting these Oscars, people went on Twitter to talk about her stiff speech.
Here are some tweets about Kim’s presentation:
@JoeBelBruno said: “Seemed appropriate for Kim Novak’s face to announce the winner: Frozen #Oscars.”
@NickYoussef wrote: “Kim Novak was just safely transported back to the Hollywood Wax Museum. #Oscars.”
@TinaBrownLM commented: “Kim Novak has had so much plastic surgery she can’t actually speak #Oscars.”
Board Certified Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon Dr. William Bruno tells HollywoodLife.com exclusively:
“In her heyday, in Alfred Hitchcock films, 81-year-old actress Kim Novak was a great beauty. While it is not fair to compare an 81-year-old woman to look as she did in her 20’s or 30’s, Kim Novak’s face at the Oscar’s bears no resemblance to the face of her youth.
Her younger face was dainty and feminine. She had a small pointy chin, defined cheek bones, and a Cupid’s bow mouth.
Ms. Novak’s face at the Oscars looked masculine and overinflated. It appears as if she had a facelift at some point, which widened the shape of her upper face. In addition, it is abundantly clear that too much filler has been used in her checks. Filler has also been used in her naso labial folds but the result has been uneven. The filler did its job on the left side but there remains a distinct crease on the right.
What is most striking is her chin. It does appear as if she had a chin implant, which seems to be the only way to explain how she morphed from a dainty feminine chin to the masculine chin she has today. Alfred Hitchock must be rolling in his grave!”
HollywoodLifers, what do you guys think about Kim’s transformation?
