Cameron Diaz

Ever since the news that Cameron Diaz has decided to go for a nose job broke, countless camps have contended that the Charlie’s Angels star was just using her oft-broken nose as an excuse to get her nose cosmetically fixed, that she is just getting a nose job purely for vanity reasons.

Starpulse tells us how Diaz is begging to differ:

She explains, "My ear, nose and throat doctor said nostrils only work one at a time, I think. I only have one that works at any point, so when it's off, the other one doesn't come on. They're going to swipe it through. It's not cosmetic, it's just for breathing purposes. Half the oxygen isn't working for me any longer. There are moments where I can't remember things and I'm going to blame it on lack of oxygen. They're just going to go in and fix the bones. The septum's kind of like a derailed train; it kind of piles up on itself a few times. It's not cosmetic, it's purely medical."

For a woman who has reportedly broken her nose no less than four times, it’s about time Shrek star Cameron Diaz did something about it. She’s having a nose job done.

Nbc5i.com gives us the details:

The actress has broken her nose four times, including most recently when she came face to face with her surfboard while celebrating her 31st birthday in Hawaii.

Diaz tells W magazine she started experiencing breathing problems: “I’m over it. I’m getting it fixed.”

According to the New York Post, Diaz was so impressed with Ashlee Simpson’s nose job; she decided to contact Simpson’s doctor and booked an appointment.
