Niecy Nash-Betts is sharing her unfiltered thoughts on cosmetic surgery.
At 55 years old, Nash-Betts is fully embracing the woman she’s become — accepting every change that comes with time. While some may opt for a little nip and tuck to enhance their features, Nash-Betts is joyfully celebrating this phase of her life, with cosmetic enhancements far from her mind.
“I’m not above it if it works for you,” Nash-Betts said regarding cosmetic enhancements to Interview Magazine in an article published on Thursday.
The “RENO 911!” actor explained that she’s at a point in her career where maintaining facial mobility matters, especially given her work in front of the camera.
“I’m in a situation where I really have to be able to move my face,” she said. “You can’t be in a remake of ‘Roots’ with your cheekbones up to your eyebrows.”
Nash-Betts’ perspective on plastic surgery reflects a deep sense of confidence and comfort in her own skin. During the interview, she also spoke about what it feels like to turn 50.

“Oh, I’ve been having more fun now. Don’t I look like I got Benjamin Button’s disease? I’m aging backwards,” Nash-Betts joked. “I live a very happy and satiated lifestyle. I could work a 16-hour day and still come home and make time to get in a hot tub and drink champagne.”

As for those 16-hour days, Nash Betts, alongside Teyana Taylior, Kim Kardashian, Sarah Paulson, Naomi Watts and Glenn Close all star in the new HULU series “All’s Fair.”
However, the responses haven’t been entirely positive — and Close wasn’t afraid to address the haters.
On Thursday, the actor took to Instagram to post a whimsical hand-drawn illustration showing her and her co-stars smiling mischievously, as they hover over a bubbling pot — with a dead rabbit. This was a nod to Close’s role in the 1987 film “Fatal Attraction,” where Close boils a rabbit that belonged to the daughter of a gentleman caller.
