Taylor Swift has always been under scrutiny for one reason or another, and this time, it has something to do with how she looks. After the singer made her latest appearance on The Graham Norton Show, fans and haters alike were quick to point out that there was something different about her.
While promoting her latest album, The Life of a Showgirl, on the talk show, the audience had less interest in listening to what she had to say and more in the way her face looked.
For comparison, here’s a look at the actress through the years on The Graham Norton Show:
Reddit sleuths believe the singer may have had upper blepharoplasty done, which is a surgery that is done to correct a droopy eyelid by removing excess skin, muscle, and fat.
While Dr Frederick Weniger, a board-certified plastic surgeon, sees the difference in her eyes, he believes that it could all have been achieved by makeup and styling.
He said (via Nicki Swift), “Makeup and styling play a big role, for example; heavier eyeliner or lashes can make eyes appear smaller, while different techniques can create a more lifted, open look. It does not seem likely she has undergone surgery on her upper eyelids.“
What Plastic Surgeons Are Saying About Taylor Swift’s Alleged Plastic Surgery
Multiple plastic surgeons have weighed in on Taylor Swift’s new look and the rumors of her plastic surgery. Unlike Dr. Weniger, Dr. Smita Ramanadham believes that the CANCELLED!
Dr. Ramanadham, a plastic surgeon in New Jersey, opened up to the Daily Mail about Swift’s new look and stated, “Stars and celebrities, just like us normal people, get fillers or facial treatments or Botox as part of getting ready for big events…to look and feel their best. And Taylor Swift appears to be no exception.“
She went on to add that the cosmetic procedures are so “subtle” that they need “trained eyes” like hers to see what’s going on here. The plastic surgeon added,
Her face is looking very full, especially in the cheek area…She has always had a youthful, rounder face, but compared to older pictures as an adult, [her face] is looking very full, and that to me just looks like she has had filler.
Adding to the speculation of Swift getting fillers, Dr. Ramanadham pointed out that her “eyes look a bit smaller too…which can also be because of filler into the cheeks.” Talking about Botox, she said that while it is less obvious, Swift’s “eyebrows do appear a little more angular, which can be caused by these injections.”
Another plastic surgeon, Dr Gary Linkov (New York), also believes Swift has used fillers and Botox, but it may not be as dramatic as people are making it out to be. As for her lips, he said (via Daily Mail), “I’m not seeing anything in her lips recently, however, I think she just kind of overlined the upper lip with her makeup.”
Fans Are Unhappy With Taylor Swift’s New Look
Both doctors have also pointed out that the change in Swift’s look could also be due to weight fluctuations. This is worth noting because she recently did make a few interview appearances, like the one on BBC Radio 1 with Greg James, where her appearance did not spark any sort of concern.
Whether she had Botox/fillers, put on some weight, or just did her makeup a bit differently, fans were not happy with how she looked on The Graham Norton Show.
Take a look at how some fans reacted to it all:

I never want to comment on a woman’s appearance negatively but I need to know who her injectionist is so we can get their license revoked.
whoever did her filler needs to be fired

Despite the ongoing chatter, Swift has not commented on the rumors surrounding her looks. However, a source close to the Daily Mail confirmed that the singer has not had any touch-ups ahead of her Graham Norton Show appearance.
