Reba McEntire has set the record straight about those rumors alleging that she’s had plastic surgery and other cosmetic work done to maintain her natural beauty. Speaking with OK! in 2009, the “Fancy” singer denied having had Botox. “I don’t do it. Everybody else can, it’s fine with me. I don’t,” she said. “It’s botulism, so I didn’t want to put that in my body. I think plastic surgery’s great if that’s what you want to do.” Instead, McEntire insisted on having a good skincare routine and regular exercise as the key to looking fresh and young. “I take my makeup off every night, cleanse my face,” she said. “I wash my face in the morning … and moisturize very well.” She also doesn’t forget to use sunscreen. For McEntire, less is more when it comes to her skincare routine. “I get facials as regularly as I can, and drink lots of water. And I do take fish oils,” she added.
While she may have opted out of getting Botox, the Grammy-winning singer has admitted to having had some work done before — but not for beauty reasons. Previously, she revealed that she had to have surgery on her forehead after being diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma, which is a type of skin cancer. “It happened to be real close to the filming of the ‘Does He Love You’ [music] video,” she shared in a statement obtained by UMG Nashville.
