Tom Jones, who was knighted by Queen Elizabeth last week, has said that his plastic surgeon has told him not to get any more work done.
“He advised me against having anything else done,” reveals Sir Tom, in an exclusive interview with the Daily Mirror…
“He told me: ‘Your eyes will be bloody popping.’ He said I should try to look as natural as I can.”
He pulls down his bottom eyelids, revealing how he will look if he succumbs to the surgeon’s steel again…
“I’ve had some nips and tucks,” he admits, with a laugh. But now, even with the health warning of one of America’s top cosmetic surgeons, he’s not convinced he can resist another op or bout of Botox. “I don’t know,” he muses. “It depends on what I think needs doing.”
Jones, 65, also admits to dyeing his jet-black hair and beard, and has a 48 year-old son with shock-white hair.
Jones does all his own moves on stage and works out on a cross trainer an hour a day to stay in shape. He says he loves performing, gets bored if he takes time off, and has no plans to stop.
People speculated that Jones’ 49 year-marriage to Linda Woodward was in trouble when he showed up solo for his knighting ceremony. Jones said that his wife doesn’t fly after 9/11 and seems to reveal that he has a non-traditional relationship: “Neither of us felt strong enough to walk away from the marriage… There’s no need and it works for us and everything’s cool.”
Jones has a new album, Stoned in Love with DJ Chicane, that is quite catchy and will be out later this month. You can listen to the title track online. (Scroll 3/4 down the page.) It’s sure to be a hit.
