Not only am I completely fascinated with Heidi Montag’s “new and improved” look, I can’t quite get over the fact that it took 10 plastic surgeries to achieve her barbie-like facade. I'm not going into endless commentary on whether or not she looks good, or if the whole idea was just plain stupid, but on the plus side, at least the girl hasn’t lost her sense of humor or her loveable fame-hungry ways. This Heidi Montag public service announcement, directed by Oscar winner Ron Howard, is faux. I’m not sure how Howard and The Hill’s star connected for this project, but at least they’ve found a unique, comedic voice.
