Victoria Principal

[screenname]

I didn't see a thread for her and I just read that she was finally getting a divorce. This article mentions that she isn't against cosmetic procedures, which I think is interesting, since she makes her money selling skin care products and promotes them based on how good she looks.

Does anyone know what 'hereditary blood disease' she has that they mention?

IMDB says intravascular hypercoagulation.

I thought her husband (or ex or soon to be) was a cosmetic surgeon, which is why I never believed that her skin care products kept her looking like she does.

Hee, I remember a neighbor once, had a husband that was a plastic surgeon and she would always tout her husband to everyone. She would always include the caveat that she's never had any work done from him. Meanwhile, she looked like a complete victim of plastic surgery, with a super tight face and overblown lips... All of her preaching to us, what a great plastic surgeon her husband was, made us all make a mental note to NEVER go to him.

As for VP, I admit I've never even followed her. However, she does look damn good for age and what plastic surgery she has done, certainly has made her a 'better version' of herself.. man, she's 61.

Actually, niddlemiddle, she probably had the work done by one of his colleagues-I believe it's considered a big no-no in the world of medicine (even cosmetic), to practice on your own family members.

And she's going to be an astronaut!

The former Dallas star is taking advantage of this decade of her life. She looks forward to training for her June 2008 journey to outer space, having paid a small fortune for a spot on billionaire Richard Branson's manned flight. She says, "I have a thing for speed — fast planes, fast cars."

A somewhat serious question: Will the lack of gravity affect her plastic surgery.

Well according to Mickey Rourke, who is an expert on the subject,

And what happened was I went on the plane and it swelled from elevation, then I had a haematoma, so what they have to do is stick a needle here to draw everything out.

'I went to this plastic surgeon whose nickname is "The Butcher" and he stuck this long needle up my lip and pulled out all this infection. I was screaming in the chair, really screaming. I was supposed to go back one more time but I didn't. I got on a plane and went to do a movie instead. But the lip was out to here...

Look at the picture of Mr. Rourke. Miss Principal will certainly look very interesting when she staggers off the space shuttle.

VP has had a lot of surgery, I don't care what she says about attributing her looks to her skin products. At least she wasn't married to CMJ's surgeon, or worse, the Bride of Wildenstein's surgeon. I am afraid to click on that Mickey Rourke link because he is too scary-looking these days.

Is she part Asian? I always thought so as a kid. Am I insane for thinking this?

I believe her father was in the Air Force, and she was born in Japan (today is her birthday, as a matter of fact).
