Althouse: "Today I’m releasing those false narratives, the parts of me that were never actually parts of me."

September 27, 2025

"Today I’m releasing those false narratives, the parts of me that were never actually parts of me."

"I’m letting go of the body that was sexualized, that was abused, that I believed was necessary for me to be attractive; to be loved; to be successful; to be happy.... Today I am loved, I am feminine, I am attractive, and I am successful. None of that is because of my implants. I will still be all of those things when I wake up and they are gone. There is so much and joy in that knowledge and freedom in letting go of what was never me in the first place. Today, I’m my authentic self. Today, I’m free."

Said Alyssa Milano, quoted in "Alyssa Milano removes her breast implants: 'Letting go of the body that was sexualized and abused'"(NY Post).

pious agnostic said...: I have long considered Alyssa Milano a poster child for the horrible damage that Hollywood does to children. She was a lovely child actress, almost certainly betrayed and sexually abused by adults; the result being years of hatred, of herself, and of the world at large. Her words and actions have been the spoiled fruit of her abuse as a young girl. Her implants are a symptom of what she had learned was her only value: as a sexual object.

I hope she recovers physically, emotionally, and most especially, spiritually from the poison she has ingested during her life.; 9/27/25, 9:28 AM
Ice Nine said...: Ever the grandstander. (Pssst...No one gives a shit, Aly.); 9/27/25, 9:28 AM
Wince said...: Easier than penis reconstruction, and I'm assuming Milano didn't have the implant surgery done while she was still a child.

Speaking of "false narratives," how can anyone who supports Milano's decision now endorse sexual reassignment surgery for children?; 9/27/25, 9:30 AM

Enigma said...: I prefer Pepperidge Farm Milano cookies. They are not authentic Italian desserts I suppose, but still tasty and loved.

I remember when Alyssa was an apparently sane child actor. Pepperidge Farm remembers too.; 9/27/25, 9:32 AM
Eva Marie said...: Sadly, too much cosmetic surgery on her face as well.; 9/27/25, 9:33 AM

Peachy said...: Hollywood rots the brain. Kimmil town; 9/27/25, 9:34 AM
Achilles said...: Alyssa Milano uses her beauty and sex to get rich.

She feels bad about it. Not because she was a whore but because people understand she is a dumb person who slept with producers to get jobs and nobody listens to her.

Now she removes her implants because the skin is sagging and she pretends she had any sort of useful talent outside of her body.

This pattern is so boring at this point.; 9/27/25, 9:38 AM
Lem Vibe Bandit said...: For a minute I thought it was the Kardashian.; 9/27/25, 9:43 AM
D.D. Driver said...: Can't she donate them to a trans woman who wants top surgery? 🤷🏼‍♂️; 9/27/25, 9:46 AM
Enigma said...: Alyssa is 52 years old. I suspect this has as much to do with menopause as anything else. She's likely not interested in sex anymore, and this removal may reduce male attention. Female sex hormones fall off a cliff at menopause, and some women become relative loners.; 9/27/25, 9:47 AM
Oso Negro said...: She made good money with those implants. They deserve to be bronzed at minimum; 9/27/25, 9:50 AM
mezzrow said...: Thanks for sharing, Alyssa.

I never know if it's two y's, two l's, or two s's. (esses?); 9/27/25, 9:50 AM

Aggie said...: Ah, geez. Don't know anything about her history, but if she's from Hollywood, then I suspect the same need for attention that drives her to tell us 'all about her implant removal' is the same need that caused her to get implants in the first place.; 9/27/25, 9:52 AM
Dude1394 said...: Jesus wept; 9/27/25, 9:54 AM
Lem Vibe Bandit said...: Can't she donate them to a trans woman who wants top surgery?

Better yet, put them en eBay and use the proceeds to feed the homeless.; 9/27/25, 9:56 AM
Leland said...: I never found her beautiful from the inside. That may have happened to her more so than how she might have turned out otherwise, but what she did externally just never mattered.; 9/27/25, 9:59 AM
james said...: Hum. She worked in an industry that prioritizes female sexual attractiveness and maximized her career with artificial enhancements. She's giving some of it up now that everyone knows she is too old to be a sex idol. And insists on self-righteously pontificating on it.

Real profile in courage.; 9/27/25, 10:01 AM
tcrosse said...: Now maybe Caitlyn Jenner will give up hers.; 9/27/25, 10:02 AM
Lem Vibe Bandit said...: Now maybe Caitlyn Jenner will give up hers.

You might want to peak at her Public Speaker Contracts and how they... handled such matters.; 9/27/25, 10:09 AM
JK Brown said...: Yet another woman who conformed to the female inclusion conformity. Starts in middle school and most women never escape the need to be like the women around them.

Social media just made it a 24/7 problem for women. Boys and men often find value in non-conformity once they realize that trying to fit in at school is a fools errand.

“Imagine being in the worst aspects of junior high school, 24 hours a day, forever.”
--Greg Lukianoff on social media

""The intoxication of rouge," earnestly explained Dorothy Speare in Dancers in the Dark, "is an insidious vintage known to more girls than mere man can ever believe." Useless for frantic parents to insist that no lady did such things; the answer was that the daughters of ladies were doing it, and even retouching their masterpieces in public. Some of them, furthermore, were abandoning their corsets. "The men won't dance with you if you wear a corset," they were quoted as saying."
---‘Only Yesterday An Informal History Of The Nineteen Twenties’, Frederick Lewis Allen (1931)

But it is true that Alyssa Milano had a business case for implants given her career based on visual appeal; 9/27/25, 10:24 AM

Rabel said...: "She was a lovely child actress, almost certainly betrayed and sexually abused by adults"

Oh, Bull. Her Mother was with her the whole way. It was Milano and her Mother in the early days of the internet who tried in vain to stop online publication of her nude photos.; 9/27/25, 10:34 AM

Yancey Ward said...: I know who she is and recognize her whenever I see her but I think the only movie I ever watched that she was in was "Commando" as the kidnapped daughter. I also remember her in an episode of a reboot of "The Outer Limits" from sometime in the early 1990s or so. I always thought she was very beautiful and looking at recent photos she still is.; 9/27/25, 10:47 AM
