David Gest – $20,000
David Gest attributed his decision to undergo a series of plastic surgeries, amounting to $20,000, to fellow enthusiast Michael Jackson. According to David, it all began with a simple nose job recommended by Michael, but things escalated from there.
Driven by his desire to enhance his appearance and his admitted insecurities about his looks, David embarked on a sequence of procedures. This included multiple nose jobs, cheekbone implants, subsequent larger cheek implants, and ultimately removing those cheek implants when the results were unsatisfactory and left him resembling a chipmunk. Despite his ego, David admitted to always feeling unattractive, which prompted him to seek these drastic measures.
