"I've had a little work done, I'm not gonna lie! But seriously, I'm so thrilled to be associated with FACE TO FACE because what they do is really important. The women that benefit from this organization have been through so much and I know the help and cosmetic surgery they receive will be a integral part of their recovery, emotionally and physically. I really believe that when these women look in the mirror and no longer see any traces of their abuse, it will be an important step for moving on to a much happier and healthier life."
