Bruce Jenner, who is the midst of a gender transformation, reportedly underwent a nose job a few weeks ago, TMZ has reported.
The 65-year-old former Olympian allegedly opted to smooth out his beak in effort to “soften his features” and make it “look more feminine,” the website noted.
Bruce Jenner’s reported new procedure follows his choice to go under the knife last year to reduce his Adam’s Apple.
While Bruce Jenner has not yet spoken out on his new lifestyle, the topic will reportedly be addressed by him on this season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, which premiered over the weekend.
The revelation was made to his daughters in front of the cameras and will air during episode 13 of the new season, a source told Us Weekly earlier this month.
Keeping Up With the Kardashians star Kylie Jenner took to Twitter to deny recent rumors that she had a nose job.
Kim Kardashian’s sister wrote: “These plastic surgery rumors hurt my feelings, to be honest, and are kinda insulting … Just in case anyone forgot … I’m 16.”
Two months ago, Kylie Jenner sparked plastic surgery rumors, and fans of Keeping Up With the Kardashians reality show speculated that she got a nose job after her nose appeared thinner than usual in photos that she posted on Instagram.
In addition to a nose job, reports also claimed Kylie Jenner had gotten botox injections, a cosmetic procedure her older sister Kim Kardashian has admitted to in the past.
Julie Chen has denied she had a nose job after admitting that she had eye surgery at 25.
Julie Chen, 43, who revealed last week that she was once told she would never be an anchor because she is Chinese, told The Talk yesterday that she has not had any other cosmetic surgery.
“For the record, I have never had a nose job,” Julie Chen said.
“I have only had plastic surgery done to my eyes that I’ve already told you about.”
Julie Chen says that the difference in the appearance of her nose in her “after” photo was thanks to her make-up artist’s contouring skills. She demonstrated this with side-by-side photos of herself before her eye surgery and herself now before make-up.
She also shared a 20-second time-lapse video of her hair and make-up process, including her make-up artist’s expert contouring.
That is not to say that she didn’t consider a rhinoplasty though. Julie Chen says she decided against it, however, after her grandmother told her that the shape of her nose is considered a “good fortune nose” in Chinese culture – and they both shared the same feature.

Julie Chen also insisted on Monday’s edition of the show that her intention with the eye procedure was not to make herself look “less Asian”, rather that she wanted her eyes to look “more open”.
Referring to “haters” who shared “hurtful” responses to her story, Julie Chen said: “The hateful comments that I read where people were judging me were people within my own community.
“It was comments like, <<Way to give in to the Western standards of beauty>>. [and] <<You’re denying your heritage. You’re trying to look less Asian>>.
“Guess what? I don’t look less Chinese! I’m not fooling anybody here. That’s number one.
“Number two: half of us Asians are born with the double-eyelid.
“My mother was born with it. My father has one lid that was creased, one lid that didn’t get its crease until he hit his late teens. I have one sister born with the creases, one sister born without it, so it wasn’t denying my heritage.”
Julie Chen added in an interview with People magazine: “The goal was to simply have bigger eyes so the camera didn’t make me look sleepy, bored, angry or disinterested in my interviews.
“The goal was to look, in my opinion, more alert and more interested on camera for my work/career.”
Julie Chen’s The Talk co-star Sharon Osbourne says the furor surrounding the eye surgery compares to her own rhinoplasty.
Sharon Osbourne said on Monday’s show: “I got rid of my Jew-bump on my nose and I still tell people I’m half a Jew. I just didn’t want it!
“You are what you are. I love being what I am, I embrace being what I am, but did I want that nose? No!”

Lady Gaga looks unrecognizable in a make-up free snap she posted to a fan website.
Along with the dramatic picture Lady Gaga wrote: “ARTPOP as they pry the single from my bleeding fingers. it’s a scary thing to revisit those things underneath, the pain in your past. but all I found was raw passion. I thought I was destroyed inside. I’m just ready to fight. start the music.”

In the picture Lady Gaga sports a pale complexion and her eyebrows are barely there.
Lady Gaga, who is no stranger to changing her appearance, posted the snap to a fan site Littlemonsters.com.
She looks trimmer than she has in recent months, with a pronounced collar bone on display.
Lady Gaga, who has failed to comment on reports that she has had a nose job in recent weeks, was named as the top earning celebrity under 30 years old by Forbes magazine.
The singer made an estimated $80 million in the last 12 months, despite being forced to cancel part of her tour after having hip surgery.
Last year Lady Gaga was ranked at number four, while Taylor Swift, who topped the poll in 2012, has dropped to third place with $55 million.
Controversial Lady Gaga has sparked speculation she has undergone a nose job, after it appeared more streamlined at a recent event.
Recently Lady Gaga’s nose appeared to be slimmer and smaller.
A spokesperson for the singer refused to comment on the claims.
Lady Gaga has spoken out about her looks and in a past interview claimed she would never go under the knife.

Speaking to Harper’s Bazaar in 2011 after sporting prosthetic horns and claiming they were her “bones”, Lady Gaga said: “I have never had plastic surgery, and there are many pop singers who have.”
“I think promoting insecurity in the form of plastic surgery is infinitely more harmful than an artistic expression related to body modification.”
She continued: “And how many models and actresses do you see on magazine covers who have brand-new faces and have had plastic surgery, while I myself have never had any plastic surgery?”
While Lady Gaga’s looks might be causing controversy, her absence from social networking sites has also raised eyebrows.
The singer, who has over 39million followers on Twitter, recently announced she was leaving the site – albeit for a temporary period.
Lady Gaga has changed her profile picture to the default egg and has written: “This interface has been shutdown temporarily. Please check back for updates.”
It’s thought Lady Gaga’s departure from Twitter is to coincide with the promotional drive for her new album ARTPOP.
Steven Soderbergh’s new HBO movie Behind the Candelabra stars Michael Douglas as Liberace, and Matt Damon as Scott Thorson, whose memoir Behind the Candelabra: My Life With Liberace is the film’s source material.
The film suggests a focus on Scott Thorson, not Liberace.
Scott Thorson was a 16-year-old trainee veterinarian when he met Liberace. One of Liberace’s pet dogs was suffering from an eye infection, and Scott Thorson was called out to attend. Scott Thorson had been installed as live-in houseboy and not only commanded the Liberace estate by day, but featured nightly in Liberace’s Vegas stage act, driving the star on stage in a rhinestone encrusted limousine, tidying the train of Liberace’s fur gown, and being introduced to the audience by name.
Scott Thorson and Liberace lived together for five years, a period which demands a new word for “decadence”. When Scott Thorson said he loved Liberace’s gold-plated Rolls Royce, for example, Liberace wrapped the car in an enormous red bow and gave it to him, and Thorson was never seen without his ghastly gold-plated Zippo lighter, another gift from Lee, on a gold chain around his neck.
Scott Thorson claims he had plastic surgery to look more like Liberace, including a nose job and a chin implant. In a 2002 interview with Larry King, Scott Thorson said that after he put on weight during a trip with Liberace to Paris, Liberace introduced him to Priscilla Presley’s plastic surgeon. Scott Thorson said that Liberace accompanied him to his first consultation, instructing the surgeon to “make him look like my son”. But, the operations weren’t satisfactory, and Scott Thorson later had the chin implant removed.

Apparently, Liberace and his plastic surgeon drank bottles of vodka together before general anaesthetic was administered and cosmetic procedures were carried out at Liberace’s home. Robert Goulet, Charo, Phyllis Diller and Debbie Reynolds were routine houseguests. While Scott Thorson confessed to a daily diet of “co***ne, quaaludes, Biphetamine, demerol”, Lee only drank, and snorted amyl nitrate like a demon.
In 1982, after they’d broken up, Scott Thorson’s lawyers launched a $100 million palimony lawsuit. They finally settled in 1986 for $95,000, two dogs (including the one that originally had the infected eye) and the gold Rolls Royce. It was a smaller settlement than what the London tabloid the Daily Mirror demanded in 1987 once it was revealed that Liberace’s sudden weight loss was not in fact due to what his people had told everyone was the result of a watermelon diet – a refund of the half a million pounds it had been forced to pay him 30 years earlier when he sued them for implying he was homos***al without any proof when one of their journalists said this about him: “They say that this deadly, winking, sniggering, snuggling, chromium-plated, scent-impregnated, luminous, quivering, giggling, fruit-flavored, mincing, ice-covered heap of mother love has had the biggest reception and impact on London since Charlie Chaplin arrived at the same station, Waterloo, on September 12,1921.
“This appalling man – and I use the word appalling in no other than its true sense of terrifying – has hit this country in a way that is as violent as Churchill receiving the cheers on V-E Day.
“He reeks with emetic language that can only make grown men long for a quiet corner, an aspidistra, a handkerchief, and the old heave-ho. Without doubt, he is the biggest sentimental vomit of all time. Slobbering over his mother, winking at his brother, and counting the cash at every second, this superb piece of calculating candy-floss has an answer for every situation.
“There must be something wrong with us that our teenagers longing for s** and our middle-aged matrons fed up with s** alike should fall for such a sugary mountain of jingling claptrap wrapped up in such a preposterous clown.”
Around that time, Scott Thorson allegedly made statements like this to the world’s press: “I know three young men now that are dead because of AIDS because of him.”
But other reports are that when Liberace was on his deathbed, Scott Thorson was there, at Liberace’s request. After Liberace died, Scott Thorson stated that the conflicts between he and Lee had been exaggerated, and that it was his lawyers who were out for the money and he personally was primarily concerned about who was going to take care of the dogs.
Then, allegedly, Scott Thorson had an affair with Michael Jackson.
All that would be enough adventure for most people and it covers the action in Behind the Candelabra it’s just the beginning of Scott Thorson’s story.
The Wonderland murders, otherwise known as the Lauren Canyon killings, occurred on the night of 1 July 1981, while Scott Thorson was still living with Liberace. A few days later, John Holmes broke into the home of Eddie Nash, owner of West Hollywood clubs such as the Kit Kat and the Starwood. John Holmes was casing the joint for the Wonderland gang, who lived at 8763 Wonderland Avenue and traded drugs. The gang broke in the next day, tying up Eddie Nash and his bodyguard and stealing a bunch of stuff.
Later, Scott Thorson was over at Eddie Nash’s house picking up some deals when right in front of his eyes, Nash’s heavies dragged John Holmes in and knocked him around with knuckle dusters until he coughed up the address of the Wonderland gang, who were all soon shot dead. Scott Thorson agreed to testify against Eddie Nash, on the proviso he go straight into witness protection.
After several years in Alaska, Scott Thorson was transferred to Jacksonville, Florida and exited from the witness protection program due to his ongoing use of dr**s. According to his memoirs, he was watching a Pat Boone documentary on TV one night when d**g dealers broke into his motel room and shot him five times. Scott Thorson insists he had no prior dealings with his assailants and that the attack was not ordered by Eddie Nash who, incidentally, now owns the gold Rolls Royce after Thorson exchanged it for co***ne.
In 2008 Scott Thorson was sentenced to four years in prison on d**g and burglary offences and now lives with his wife in New England.

Amanda Bynes took to Twitter as usual, this time to reveal she had a nose job.
Amanda Bynes, 27, claims: “I had a nose job to remove skin that was like a webbing in between my eyes. Having surgery was the most amazing thing for my confidence!”
Amanda Bynes wanted to be open about her surgery so magazines would stop publishing old pictures of her
The troubled actress said she wanted to be open about her surgery so magazines would stop publishing old pictures of her.
Amanda Bynes wrote: “I wasn’t going to tell anyone, but I look so much prettier in my new photos that I don’t want old photos used anymore!
“I’m so sick of magazines and blogs using old photos! When will they stop? I will never look like that again!”
Yesterday it was revealed that Jill Kelley was taunted over her large nose in high school and vowed to get plastic surgery to make it look better.
Perhaps the episode points to an inner frailty about her looks that drove her determination to have a string of powerful men in her thrall.
Jill Kelley, the woman who is at the center of the scandal that has felled two top generals told fellow pupils when she and her twin sister, Natalie Khawam, were 18, that they were “going to get a nose job and when we you do you’ll all be in awe of us”.
She was also “flirtatious”, gave boys she met a big grin and used to wear tight blue jeans which brought many an admiring male gaze.
It is not clear if Jill Kelley followed through on her promise to get plastic surgery.
The claims show that Jill Kelley’s interest in carefully crafting her image started at an early age.
Since the David Petraeus scandal broke, Jill Kelley has appeared in public “looking a million dollars”, notably in a bright yellow dress and three inch heels as she climbed into her Mercedes outside her mansion in Tampa, Florida yesterday and today in a polished pink and gold heels ensemble.
Judging by pictures in her high school yearbook, then Jill Khawam was glamorous and well aware of her charms even at a young age.

In her official 1993 graduation photo for Lower Moreland High School in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania, Jill Khawam posed wearing a black dress and pearls around her neck with her jet black hair tumbling over her left shoulder.

Jill Kelley, 37, has become the central figure in the scandal which has caused General David Petraeus, 60, to step down as head of the CIA and forced General John Allen to stand down from his post leading US troops in Afghanistan.
General John Allen, who is married, sent her between 20,000 to 30,000 e-mail messages, some of which were of an inappropriate nature.
