No Country for Old Ladies.

Can't shake the face--or should I say facelift--of Jane Fonda on her recent Larry King Tonight appearance. I was riveted.

And not in a good way.

She admits to succumbing to a little (though I suspect it was a lot) of nip and tuck. She looked like a marionette, her face pulled up by invisible strings. Smiling?  Nearly impossible.  Blinking?  Non-stop.

What a shame.  The original fitness queen, she has has a higly tuned sense of vanity.  But then who in Hollywood doesn't?

Still, it bums me out.  I thought she looked great for her age.  Or for a woman 15 years her junior.

My friend Susan was right when she referenced Cormac McCarthy.  America is no country for aging gals.
