So many celebrities get plastic surgery, but have you ever wondered why they would choose *that* nose, or why they had their brows lifted *so* high? If you could tweak the faces of the famous, what would you do to make them look better?

They performed virtual plastic surgery on Fergie, Paris Hilton, Jaz Z, Marc Anthony, Amy Winehouse and even Rowan Atkinson, the infamously odd-looking Mr. Bean.

The site shows each celebrity gradually transforming, time-lapse style, as they evolve from beastly to beautiful.
