Bedhead is our resident Jersey Shore expert, but after seeing this story on Evil Beet I wanted to comment on this chick Deena’s totally different face. I remember when Deena Nicole Cortese, Snooki’s friend, first joined the cast in season three when Angelina left. She’s a buddy of Snooki’s and Snooki brought her on to party with. They were two short chicks getting wasted and acting like fools. Well it looks like Deena lost weight and got both a nose job and a bunch of Botox and fillers. Her face looks so different to me, and it’s way more than just her warped eyebrows. (Which look scribbled on with a Sharpie.) She’s only 25 years old, but she’s got LA Face and she now looks at least 10 years older.
I asked Bedhead for her take on Deena’s new look, and she said that Deena “suffers from very low self-esteem, so I can see why she’s done the nose job thing.” I was going through old photos of Deena and it looks like she’s had the nose job for at least the last year, but the injections are new and they look kind of painful.
I’ll try to be delicate here. I guess I understand why Deena got her nose done, although her old nose was perfectly fine and I think she was cuter before. All the Botox and fillers just make her look like she’s wincing. Some may think this is better than the permanent bitchface she used to have, but it must be hard to look happy when you’re hungover and trying to cover blotchy skin with smeared orange bronzer and caked on Maybelline. Now she’ll always have the same expression, no matter how much cherry vodka she had the night before. At least she didn’t get her lips filled – yet.
Update: I wrote that last line about not getting her lips done, and then I looked at these pictures again. It does look like she got her bottom lip filled. So I take it back.
Second update: Thanks to Bee for noting that Deena has admitted to a nose job, along with implants. It’s possible she had two nose jobs, as Zelda points out below.
Deena circa 2010:

Oh. That is…not a good nose job.
I’m not talking about the choice to have one, I’m talking about the suregeon’s work itself. It’s just a poor job.

And I also think that either she has had 2 nose jobs, or that the first one did not settle well. It kindof looks like it’s slipping off her face, actually.

The two nose jobs theory is a good one, because her nose in the older photos looks different to the one she has in the oldest video, but it’s even thinner now.

Deena had a nose job years ago. She even talks about it, I’m not sure if she has got another nose job. It doesn’t matter, Deena is unattractive. Her makeup, clothes and hair all look awful. Deena is never referred too as cute or beautiful.

I’m with you on that – I don’t know how these chicks can even see with the layers of black crud caked on/in/under/over/around their eyes. Nasty! I tried to rim my eyes once and the liner got all over my soft contacts and pretty much ruined them, and it stung like a mother.

I think that its absolutely the makeup that is killing her here. I think that once to TOX settles under her eyes she will look much better. Ive always loved Deena but felt bad because she was obviously not doing great in the looks department and her confidence relflected that she knows this.
i think the makeup is too much for all of them. the only one who doesnt overdo it si JWow

Well, she had the face of a man before and now she has the face of a 45 year old woman. What a horrible nose job.
Report this comment as spam or abuse
I think it’s the way she styles herself. These Jersey girls need to get a more natural look…lay off the tanner, the over arched eyebrows and the spackled makeup. She’d look a lot better if her makeup and appearance were softer. I like this nose better than her old nose. I don’t know why people have such disdain for nose jobs.
Report this comment as spam or abuse
The problem is that, past the eye level and down, the wide bridge of the nose is still there, which used to support a wide nose. But if you pare that down as well, you wind up with Michael Jackson. Better to just leave it alone. The only nose jobs that work are slight nostril narrowing, and that’s only sometimes.

I don’t watch Jersey Shore, so I don’t have an opinion on her from that.
But I did see her on an episode of WWHL. She seemed a little . . . full of herself.
She also said that she hadn’t had any work done . . . ???
I’m not an expert at ID’ing plastic surgery, but one giveaway to me is when they look like they have some sort of placket stuck up under their upper lip.
It’s just weird. Maybe they think people will believe them when they deny having things done because everyone in LA looks that way . . . but it’s NOT normal.
Report this comment as spam or abuse
I saw that WWHL and what struck me was how stupid she was. She called “The Situation” a hermaphrodite instead of a pyromaniac (when he was playing with the campfire). They also gave her a quiz to see if she knew the meanings of certain words, and the only one she knew was “paleontologist,” because “Ross from Friend’s was one.”
😒

I just…. I can’t. How is it that there’s so much to say about this, but I am having trouble saying ANYTHING about it?
If you’ve ever watched JS, you’d know that she does have some serious insecurity issues. I’ve always felt bad for her, because she was never really attractive on the show, and felt like she knew that she was the least attractive girl there. BUT, she had Snooki, who everyone referred to as an ewok or wookie, and was kinda chunky, and also the butt of everyone’s jokes. Maybe when Snooki lost all that weight and started getting her shit together, Deena flipped out a bit and decided to get a new face.
I think this would look way less harsh without her horrible orange tan, drag queen makeup and overall terrible styling…. but, this was not a good move for her.

I thought that was Snooki? I’m being serious, not trying to make a joke. Deena wasn’t exactly proportional for her size, but I thought she at least had some classicly italian-girl features on her face that made her prettier to look at than snooki when she didn’t do the crappy-dirty makeup/tan combo. With just the nose job and a little bit of weight loss I actually think she’s quite nice looking.

Eh, who cares? As long as Deena got the surgery for herself and is happy with it, then it really is no one else’s business. Over-tweezed eyebrows aside, I think she’s beautiful in her own way, and by that I mean she stands out and doesn’t look like anyone else.
Hell, if I had the money I would get a few things done as well. And at least Deena has admitted to it (the nose job, anyway)- how many stars get blatant, obvious work done and deny, deny, deny?
Many like to shame others for having plastic surgery, but it’s ultimately the choice of the person in question. I say if it makes you happy and it is what you really want, then go for it )but know where to draw the line before ending up in Jocelyn Wildenstein territory.)

She wasn’t especially attractive before, but she tried to fix the wrong things. Her issue wasn’t structural but lifestyle. If she’d gotten her teeth fixed, moisturized intensely and chilled on the tanning, and cut down on the drinking to reduce the bloat – not to mention quitting with that awful make-up and not dressing to her best advantage – she’d have been much healthier and pleasant to look at. Some serious therapy to work on her self-image and getting out of the trashy cannibalistic ratrace that is reality entertainment, and maybe finding some friends who gave a damn about her, would make a difference, too. When people do this to themselves, it makes me think they are really hurting, and it is a shame she doesn’t have a friend or family member or even a manager she trusts and who cares about her to get her the right tools to fix what’s actually broken. There’s a pretty girl in there. I hope she finds that out, for her own sake.

I actually think she looks better. Yes she looks older and her second nose job is bad, but she has her eyes open now, and her chin and neck fat have been contoured in a way that Bristol Palin should have had done. Who ever did Bristol’s chin… LOL! Damn. But I think Deena looks better she just has gross makeup on and bad eyebrows.
She was never much to look at to begin with and that was mostly her own doing with bad makeup, crappy clothes and being overweight for her size. But she looks a little thinner in the face. It’s more suitable. Just wash her face of faux tanner and make her grow her eyebrows back.

Oh no…. I hope it settles. I don’t mean this to be encouraging, but if any of these hard partiers are going to get botox why don’t they get it on their foreheads? They all seem to have premature wrinkles there (see LL and the like) because of their dehydrated lifestyle. All of the other face fillers/botox are unneccessary and make them look like people twice their age trying to look 25. You’re already 25! Stop messing with your cute face! Nose jobs? Fine. Breasts? Sure, I guess. A bit of crow-feet or forehead botox to smooth out wrinkles that could simply be fixed by drinking more water and drinking less booze? Ugh, if you have to. But FILLING YOUR FACE SO IT LOOKS YOUNGER AND PUFFIER?!?!?! NO! NO! NO! You don’t need it and it makes you look worse! Gah! When will they learn?

I can’t feel sorry for any of these idiots. They all grew up with the reality show craze, they all knew how social media operates, and they signed up to be filmed getting wasted and acting like total a**holes. Then they got their checks, and they signed on to more seasons. Dignity? Yeah, that clearly wasn’t in the contract. Lets face it, NO ONE who signs on to be in a reality show (ok, maybe a few exceptions on like HGTV or the food channel)can possibly be a mentally sound person…sane people don’t make for good ratings. I think she wanted the money and fame, saw an opportunity, and the cracks just got bigger and bigger. At some point I really have to question why they continue to allow themselves to be in this situation (and then plead “exhaustion” ahem…addiction…ahem). Then again I’d like to know why they make more than teachers, social workers, mental health counselors, doctors, police officers…you know, people with real stress and big people jobs??
