Her World
By Jessica
Haven’t we all wished for shapelier boobs, a sharper nose or more deep-set eyes?
Jacqueline Koh wanted much more. She wanted to look like the archetypal anime girl – a heart-shaped face, big sparkling eyes, a small nose and chin, flatter ears, a svelte body and full, ripe breasts.
In her quest, the 29-year-old fashion designer at homegrown fashion boutique The Blog Shop has undergone nine plastic surgery procedures and one correction job.
The cost: $136,000 in total – the most expensive being her $36,000 breast augmentation procedure.
She still isn’t completely satisfied and rates her looks three and a half out of five.
“I’ll be perfect five the day I don’t need to Photoshop my pictures,” she says.
She always touches up her pictures before posting them on her blog at www.jacquelinekoh.com.
She hopes to finally attain “perfection” this March, after she goes for her second correction job with the same Korean surgeon who did her numerous facial operations.
The doctor will making her nose tip even smaller and her chin slightly more V-shaped.
It all started two years ago when she put on 6kg in about a year and a half, even though there was no change in her diet. At 1.6m and 48kg, she says she looked chubby.
She thinks gained weight because “my metabolism was slowing down” and for three months, she ate less and exercised to shed the excess weight.
“I ate one meal a day, worked out on the Stairmas for 15 minutes and did the biceps curl using 1kg dumbbells every day,” she says. But she didn't slim down.
Exasperated, she decided to go all out. She wanted not just to lose weight, but also to revamp her entire look.
Improving her appearance was always on her mind, she says. Her weight gain was simply the catalyst.
Though Jacqueline says she’s “not an anime fan”, she settled on the look of anime girls because she "really likes [their] big eyes and small faces."
She also wrote a list of all the procedures she wanted to go for to get her ideal look.
Her family and friends had always said she looked perfectly all right, but she felt she was “just average-looking”.
She says: “They think I didn’t need to go for my operations in first place, but it’s a personal choice. It will be enough when I think it’s enough.”
Did a former verbally and physically abusive relationship that ended in 2004 – Her World ran a story on it a few years ago – have anything to do with her extreme makeover?
Jacqueline vehemently says no. “I had all the procedures done for myself.”

Let me assure you this: anime characters are actually not pretty. They are in fact very creepy. If anime girls were to be brought into a 3D perspective, most people would either vomit or run away screaming. I mean, why would anyone even spend a cent on something that would turn out like this:

But then again, some people are just born into this world with a blind passion to go utterly bizarro.

It's sad, what's happening in our world. When you think about the increasingly bad economy, the jobless rate... And then on the flip side, we have people who are just too loaded, that they have to find something stupid to do to their bodies that defies the law of nature.
