Julie Chen admits she got surgery to look "less Asian"

The TV host reveals she was pressured into getting eyelid surgery to advance her career.



Started seeing the headlines about Julie Chen's big reveal on The Talk: "I've Had Plastic Surgery," and I thought big friggin' deal! That ain't no secret! I remember seeing this post on the blog Good Plastic Surgery many, many years ago and thinking, damn, that is some plastic surgery. But if you read the article (or watch the segment), the revelation is really about her "coming clean" about grappling with her racial identity.

It's been a week of Secrets Revealed! on CBS' The Talk, and Wednesday was co-host Julie Chen's turn to drop the bombshell admission that she had indeed gotten plastic surgery -- yup, double eyelid surgery -- as a young newswoman in an effort to look "less Asian" and to advance her career.
