Early Life and Her Thoughts on Plastic Surgery
Kelly Preston, born Kelly Kamalelehua Smith, has been on the screen since the early 1980s, beginning with her TV debut in an episode of the series Hawaii Five-0. She then made her film debut in 1983’s 10 to Midnight. She has since starred in more than 60 TV programs and feature films. Becoming a household name in Hollywood, she even got more famous after her marriage with A-list actor John Travolta in 1991.
Preston was born on October 13, 1962 in Honolulu, Hawaii. Her father died when she was three years and her mother, Linda, went on to marry Peter Palzis, who then adopted her. During her childhood, she spent substantial period living in Iraq and Australia, where she studied at Pembroke School in Adelaide. She then attended Punahou School in Honolulu and took drama and theater courses at the University of Southern California.
Preston is now in her early 50s and as she continues to age in the entertainment world, questions about her anti-aging secrets inevitably links her to plastic surgery. Because she’s considered to be looking so great for her age, Preston has become a target of claims with regards her involvement with cosmetic procedures. A few years back, she was speculated of having breast implants when some onlookers noticed that her cup size has increased.
The rumors about her breast augmentation didn’t really stick as there were no significant images justifying the claims. Besides, most people think that Preston’s face is natural that she’ll not try to apply artificial enhancement on her body as well.
Preston has also mentioned in a previous interview that she’ll never give in to the pressure to go under the knife. She said: “There’s no way I’ll ever change my views. And John feels exactly the same.”
The actress surely knows other people in the industry who have already given in, even her husband John Travolta recently came under fire for looking plastic-like in a red carpet event, but despite all this, she’s resolute in her stance against plastic surgery.
Instead of resorting to surgical enhancements to defy nature’s aging process, she simply leads a healthy lifestyle, saying she’s committed to working out five days in a week. Preston also has a different attitude towards aging, stating that 40 “really does seem to be the new 30. And 50 is the new 40”. She even added that being with her husband “would keep anyone young”.
