Lionel Richie, 73, Says He’s Never Gotten Plastic Surgery

Lionel Richie Denies Plastic Surgery Rumors, Credits “Water, Sleep & S* x”

Iconic Lionel Richie is being praised across social media, for still having a pretty youthful appearance, after his performance at King Charles’ ceremony earlier this week.

The 73-year-old singer seems to have been able to defy the effects of time. And despite the pressure for stars to stay looking young, Lionel claims that he’s never had any form of plastic surgery.

In a new interview with The Daily Mail, Lionel, a father-of-three claims that he won’t ever go down the same surgical route as many of his Hollywood contemporaries. According to Lionel, he would hate not being able to return to his natural appearance after getting plastic surgery.

‘[Plastic surgery] locks you in for that year [while you recover] – and after that you can’t go naturally, you’re staying right there… You try and go back to reset, and you can’t,’ he said, adding: ‘[And] that s*** goes wrong!’

So how does Lionel stay so young looking? Well, Lionel – who has been in a relationship with Swiss-Caribbean model Lisa Parigi for more than a decade – said he prefers to focus on ‘Water, sleep, and sweat, not too much red meat.”

Oh, and one more thing, . ‘S*x will work also and it’s good for your heart.’

Speculation around Richie’s possible plastic surgery began during his recent performance at King Charles III’s coronation concert on Sunday (May 7). Social media users responded to clips of Richie and questioned how he’s been able to keep such a youthful glow after decades of hard work as a musician.
