Oliver Hudson has tried some questionable beauty trends.
The actor, 44, told sister Kate Hudson during an episode of their “Sibling Revelry” podcast that he has tried the so-called vampire facial as well as Botox and it was more than he bargained for.
“I went in and I had blood splattered all over my face and they needled it in there and then did a frickin’ laser. And then he goes, ‘Let’s try some Botox.’ And I’m like, ‘Oh s—t, for real?'” Hudson said. “And he’s like, ‘Just trust me’ and I’m like, ‘All right, f—k it, let’s do it.’ He puts Botox in my face and I don’t feel anything.”
He continued, “Two days later I’m making an expression in the mirror and one eyebrow literally goes up into my hairline. I’m like, ‘What the f—k is going on?'”
“I called him immediately, I’m like, ‘Jason, what the f—k, dude, you just ruined my life!'”
Hudson returned to the doctor, who added more Botox to “calm it down,” but it seemed to make his expression even worse.
“It looked insane,” he said. “I looked like a villain.”
Despite his initial negative experience, Hudson says he might do it again.
“I don’t have a stigma about it. I have so many deep wrinkles too,” he said. “I’ll still look manly, but just without looking like Benjamin Button.”
Kate was encouraging — and revealed that many men in Hollywood secretly undergo the same cosmetic procedure.
“I have a friend who’s really famous, a male, who I would have never thought would get Botox and one time I saw him, he was on a little bit of a break, and I was like, ‘He just blew his face up with Botox,'” she said without naming the actor. “His whole face was frozen, and I was like, that’s really clever. He’s on a break between movies and by the time he starts shooting again, all of it goes away and he has his expression, but he doesn’t have the deep, deep lines.”
