As announced by Scotsman.com, a celebrity plastic surgery victim can be used along with television gimmicks to increase the ratings on reality television shows. The television show discussed in the article’s example is Celebrity Wife Swap, a show which garners negative publicity from the article’s author for its use of gimmicks to get attention. The gimmick discussed is that so-called celebrity plastic surgery victim Pete Burns is swapped into the family of celebrity football player Neil Ruddock as Ruddock’s new wife. It does sound a bit gimmick-driven but that doesn’t mean that it doesn’t make for some good TV. Bad celebrity plastic surgery and relationship drama may be great for television but neither of those make for good home situations. It’d be good rules to follow to avoid wife swapping and find good plastic surgeons for your own life.
