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

27 సెప్టెంబర్, 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 చెప్పారు...: 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.; 27-09-25 9:28 AM
Ice Nine చెప్పారు...: Ever the grandstander. (Pssst...No one gives a shit, Aly.); 27-09-25 9:28 AM
Wince చెప్పారు...: 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?; 27-09-25 9:30 AM
n.n చెప్పారు...: Equal in rights and complementary in Nature. No augmentation, apologies required.; 27-09-25 9:31 AM
Enigma చెప్పారు...: 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.; 27-09-25 9:32 AM
Eva Marie చెప్పారు...: Sadly, too much cosmetic surgery on her face as well.; 27-09-25 9:33 AM
n.n చెప్పారు...: Puberty can be a sanctuary state for confusion and dissatisfaction to progress. Wait and see, maybe, baby.; 27-09-25 9:33 AM
Peachy చెప్పారు...: Hollywood rots the brain. Kimmil town; 27-09-25 9:34 AM
Achilles చెప్పారు...: 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.; 27-09-25 9:38 AM
Lem Vibe Bandit చెప్పారు...: For a minute I thought it was the Kardashian.; 27-09-25 9:43 AM
D.D. Driver చెప్పారు...: Can't she donate them to a trans woman who wants top surgery? 🤷🏼‍♂️; 27-09-25 9:46 AM
Enigma చెప్పారు...: 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.; 27-09-25 9:47 AM
Oso Negro చెప్పారు...: She made good money with those implants. They deserve to be bronzed at minimum; 27-09-25 9:50 AM
mezzrow చెప్పారు...: Thanks for sharing, Alyssa.

I never know if it's two y's, two l's, or two s's. (esses?); 27-09-25 9:50 AM

Aggie చెప్పారు...: ఈ కామెంట్‌ను రచయిత తీసివేశారు.; 27-09-25 9:51 AM
Aggie చెప్పారు...: 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.; 27-09-25 9:52 AM
Dude1394 చెప్పారు...: Jesus wept; 27-09-25 9:54 AM
Lem Vibe Bandit చెప్పారు...: 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.; 27-09-25 9:56 AM
Leland చెప్పారు...: 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.; 27-09-25 9:59 AM
james చెప్పారు...: 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.; 27-09-25 10:01 AM
tcrosse చెప్పారు...: Now maybe Caitlyn Jenner will give up hers.; 27-09-25 10:02 AM
Lem Vibe Bandit చెప్పారు...: Now maybe Caitlyn Jenner will give up hers.

You might want to peak at her Public Speaker Contracts and how they... handled such matters.; 27-09-25 10:09 AM
JK Brown చెప్పారు...: 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; 27-09-25 10:24 AM
Original Mike చెప్పారు...: Who?; 27-09-25 10:31 AM
Rabel చెప్పారు...: "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.; 27-09-25 10:34 AM
ga6 చెప్పారు...: Not stated: "i'm getting old and these are heavy"
'.; 27-09-25 10:38 AM
Yancey Ward చెప్పారు...: 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.; 27-09-25 10:47 AM
Josephbleau చెప్పారు...: It’s a marketing ploy, change the rack and rebrand.; 27-09-25 11:03 AM

Ambrose చెప్పారు...: Implants gone but still full of herself.; 27-09-25 11:30 AM
Kevin చెప్పారు...: Today, I’m my authentic self.

I don't think the trans community is going to take that well.; 27-09-25 11:32 AM
Deep State Reformer చెప్పారు...: Yah. Take the silicone titties out and announce to the world because....? Sheesh. They think we're dying to know this shit. She was happy enough to be a sexualized commodity when the phones were ringing and the checks were being cashed. But now Milano's seen the light. Beware the reformed whore.; 27-09-25 11:34 AM
Randomizer చెప్పారు...: I’m letting go of the body that was sexualized,

Milano sexualized her body. She did that and profited from it. She was on the Charmed TV show for eight years. She didn't just have boobs, she displayed them like a tray of hors d’oeuvres.

I am not against an actress getting a boob job to enhance her career prospects or getting them removed when they become dead weight, just spare us the sanctimonious victim narrative.; 27-09-25 11:38 AM
Earnest Prole చెప్పారు...: There are few things less sexual than salt-water baggies shoved through incisions in the chest.; 27-09-25 11:41 AM
loudogblog చెప్పారు...: It's really a shame that so many people feel that their physical appearance determines who they are rather than their minds and personalities.; 27-09-25 11:55 AM
Eva Marie చెప్పారు...: “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.”
Your comment contradicts itself.
First those nude photos were stills from 2 movies she made when she was in her early 20s.
So why did she agree to do nude scenes? She wouldn’t have a job as an actress if she didn’t. My friend’s daughter went to Hollywood. They required nudity in the auditions. She refused but she also never got in the movies. I kinda thought she was exaggerating but Jennifer Lawrence mentioned that herself. It was a requirement of auditions. And yes every movie with a sweet young thing filmed if not included nude scenes.
A bit of a different topic but if you listen to the commentary to Risky Business you’ll find out that they filmed Tom Cruise’s iconic scene in one take. But in the beginning of the movie there’s a scene of a young girl taking a shower. The scene is misty and takes maybe 2 or 3 seconds. Do you know it took all day to film that scene. That poor young woman, in front of a full crew, had to do that scene all day long so the director could get it just right.
So, no, I’m not surprised Alyssa Milano was damaged by her experiences in Hollywood.; 27-09-25 11:58 AM
Biff చెప్పారు...: @pious agnostic at 9:28 AM

Very well said! Places like Hollywood, once you are in them, can change you incrementally, day by day, so that within a few years, you are someone you never imagined you would be.

This is especially true for a child actress. Milano became a star at twelve, with a hit tv show and a significant role in a Schwarzenegger movie.

In 2025, Alyssa Milano may be hyper-woke leftwing wacko, but she had a lot of help getting there.; 27-09-25 12:09 PM
Iman చెప్పారు...: Drop dead, sweetie!; 27-09-25 12:09 PM
Eric the Fruit Bat చెప్పారు...: This is one of those moments when I wish I were Leon Black so it'd sound funny when I said, "That'ssomestupidshitrightthere."; 27-09-25 12:13 PM

I had a brief, outsider's glimpse of Hollywood life in my twenties. I'm no prude, but I was floored by how open, blatant, and g-d damned creepy the mistreatment of children and young adults was and how it seemed that everyone simply accepted it as normal and expected. It's frankly a miracle any time that a person who grew up in that environment grows up to be reasonably well-adjusted.; 27-09-25 12:19 PM
Dagwood చెప్పారు...: Shame she can't implant a decent mind or soul.; 27-09-25 12:23 PM
Yancey Ward చెప్పారు...: "She didn't just have boobs, she displayed them like a tray of hors d’oeuvres"

Hmmm......you make a compelling case for me to watch that series.; 27-09-25 12:27 PM
Lazarus చెప్పారు...: Alyssa Milano has been very outspoken about politics. She's more than a little crazy. So this becomes an opportunity for people who disagree to pile on against her when it's really a non-issue of no importance to anyone. She shouldn't have tried to make it one to begin with.; 27-09-25 12:36 PM
Rabel చెప్పారు...: "Your comment contradicts itself.
First those nude photos were stills from 2 movies she made when she was in her early 20s.
So why did she agree to do nude scenes? She wouldn’t have a job as an actress if she didn’t."

I see no contradiction. She was an adult. She made a decision to do nude scenes.

Nor do I see abuse. She had agency. She made the call.; 27-09-25 12:53 PM
fleg9bo చెప్పారు...: If I recall correctly, Milano was very outspoken in favor of defunding the police. But she didn't let that stop her from calling the police when a threat materialized near her home. Immediately after on "The View" she clarified her stance, explaining that by defunding the police she was really calling for "a radical reconstruction of society."; 27-09-25 1:13 PM
rhhardin చెప్పారు...: Breasts are humor devices. Women have to do something with them, a decision. It's particularly notable for solo musicians, whom you watch for many minutes on end without much to do with your eyes. Yuja Wang is a breast display lady. Violinists, with bowing motions, can intermittently display large amounts of breast occasionally, which is good for keeping attention. Korean choruses go for uniformity in breast placement in the women's section.

But always the woman has to make a choice.; 27-09-25 1:15 PM
Aught Severn చెప్పారు...: Beasts of England said...
Who?

Hah, I had the same reaction. Followed immediately by "so what?"

Actors and actresses, I find, are, by and large, a pretty tedious group.; 27-09-25 1:18 PM
rhhardin చెప్పారు...: Imus reported that kissing an implant breast was like kissing a beach ball. A woman on the staff wound up with nipples facing too far outwards and needed a redo. I don't know that any man wanted anything to do with implants.

Kat Timpf after a mastectomy seems to be opting for bigger boobs than before, which is a character mistake. She fits best as under-endowed and endearing because of it.; 27-09-25 1:21 PM
Paul చెప్పారు...: Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.; 27-09-25 1:45 PM
Indigo Red చెప్పారు...: She will donate the implants to a needy transgender.; 27-09-25 2:13 PM
Disparity of Cult చెప్పారు...: Likely the same gibberish when she had two abortions within months of each other in 1993.; 27-09-25 2:19 PM
stunned చెప్పారు...: Good for her.; 27-09-25 2:44 PM
Quaestor చెప్పారు...: According to IMDB, Alyssa Milano was married to Cinjun Tate (a musician who thought St. John Tate was a cool stage name but couldn't spell it) for all of 10 months and 20 days. That should tell you everything you need to know about that absurd self-pitying breast implant story. Either she was too stupid at age 27 to regulate her own life, or her histrionics were too obnoxious for Tate to endure after only 323 days. (I don't know who filed for divorce, but I'm thinking the latter.); 27-09-25 2:57 PM
Enigma చెప్పారు...: Social media...character...Clara Dao was famously flat, as in FLAT FLAT FLAT chested. Then she got implants and broke the brains of the body positivity crowd. Social media 'influencers' are all about the eyeball and likes. There is nothing upstairs, they just want attention and to keep the attention coming.

n.n చెప్పారు...: Her boobs are not the problem. No other lives were/are harmed. It was/is her choice. To augment or not was/is her choice. She shouldn't feel compelled/celebrate either way.; 27-09-25 6:44 PM
john mosby చెప్పారు...: Bagoh20: "I always found smaller breast sexy. Does that mean I'm a little gay?"

A lot of gays are fascinated by giant boobs. I think because, even if they don't get a sexual frisson out of them, there's still the otherness and the whole Freudian denial-of-the-breast thing. Maybe the otherness is even enhanced by the lack of sexual interest. And finally there's drag, where you get to put on your own boobs, as big as you like.

Andy Cohen, for example, is a purebred gay and is totally fascinated by giant tits. Then there was the case of Isaac Mizrahi grabbing Scarlet Johanssen's boob on a red carpet somewhere. CC, JSM; 27-09-25 7:01 PM
Charlie Eklund చెప్పారు...: I have long enjoyed Milano’s but also thought it looked like she had a screw loose somewhere, like so many in her profession. I am saddened to learn that was correct.; 27-09-25 8:53 PM
wendybar చెప్పారు...: SHE sexualized her own body by inserting saline bags that she recently took out and blame others for sexualizing. Nobody FORCED her to do it. Take responsibility for once in your life.; 28-09-25 2:37 AM
