Joan Van Ark

Joan Van Ark really seems not to have learned the Michael Jackson lesson: there really can be such a thing as too much plastic surgery. Have a look at this photo of Joan Van Ark.

Almost makes the Bride of Wildenstein alluring, doesn't it?

Joan Van Ark of "Knots Landing" fame recently revealed her new face.

Van Ark, 64, was seen at an AIDS benefit in Hollywood wearing mask-like make-up which attempted to soften the redness underneath.

It actually looks a lot more like a recent chemical peel than actual plastic surgery. Depends how long it carries on looking like that one might guess:

Former Knots Landing star Joan Van Ark revealed that her attempts to stave off the aging process have backfired spectacularly when she rocked up to a red carpet event looking like a reanimated cadaver. With her bizarrely positioned facial features and rubbery skin, the once-stunning 64-year-old looked to have taken plastic surgery to extremes. Even heavy make-up and some drawn-on eyebrows failed to compensate for her surgery-ravaged appearance.

It's certainly wildly different from the picture of Joan Van Ark on her own website:

Come along now, no one believes that a 64 year old looks like that. Sheesh.
