# Pricey Celeb Emulation Chinese Woman Gets Plastic Surgery to Look like Jessica Alba By Michael Hines | Published 2010-02-06 | Unique Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/look-like-jessica-alba References: [buzzfeed](http://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/chinese-woman-getting-plastic-surgery-to-look-exac) Getting “regular” plastic surgery is a big deal, but getting plastic surgery to look like Jessica Alba is just a whole other issue entirely. [Celebrity obsession](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/celebrity-twin) is nothing new, but the reason behind this plastic surgery is just heartbreaking. The woman who is getting the procedure is only doing it so her ex-boyfriend will be with her. He was obsessed with the actress and broke up with his girlfriend because she couldn’t manage to look like Jessica Alba all the time. Distraught and desperate, she decided to get plastic surgery. This is just terrible. I hope this woman changes her mind and realizes that she is beautiful without looking like Jessica Alba. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.1/10 - Popularity: 81% | Activity: 95% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Unique](https://www.trendhunter.com/unique) > [Bizarre](https://www.trendhunter.com/bizarre) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Celebrity Obsession:** Opportunity for businesses to provide healthier alternatives to meet the desire for celebrity emulation. - **Plastic Surgery Trends:** Innovation opportunities in the cosmetic industry to develop sustainable and ethical practices in response to extreme plastic surgery cases. - **Body Image Issues:** Potential for businesses to create empowering campaigns and tools to promote self-acceptance and combat unhealthy beauty standards. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Cosmetic Surgery:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in the cosmetic surgery industry to develop counseling programs for individuals seeking extreme procedures. - **Beauty and Fashion:** Opportunity for the beauty and fashion industry to champion diverse representations of beauty and challenge unrealistic standards. - **Media and Entertainment:** Potential for the media and entertainment industry to promote positive body image through inclusive storytelling and characters. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Holistic Educational Beauty Programs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beverly-hills-plastic-surgery.md) - [Cheeky Jewelry Valentine's Day Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prya.md) - [Aesthetician-Owned Medical Spas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-skin-fixer.md) - [Product-Inspired Halloween Looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldi-and-elladoesfx.md) - [Runway-Inspired Peel-Off Masks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glass-001-artistry-mask.md) - [Revealing Skincare Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-secret-ingredient-pop-up.md) - [Breast Augmentation Mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/see-yourself-in-sientra.md) - [Socialite-Inspired Toy Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bratz.md) - [Beauty-Branded Film Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/art-basel-miami-beach.md)
