I’ve had Botox admits Cindy Crawford… though at 43 ‘I’m holding together pretty good’

She was one of the original supermodels: an icon whose natural beauty was ubiquitous on magazine covers and billboards in the Eighties and Nineties.
And now Cindy Crawford has admitted she used Botox to enhance her looks.
The 43-year-old mother of two, who has always denied having ‘proper’ plastic surgery, said she visited a London cosmetic surgeon for several years to have the wrinkle-reducing injections.
Miss Crawford’s disclosures come in a wide-ranging interview with Mail on Sunday columnist Piers Morgan.
The American, who quit modelling nine years ago and now has her own range of beauty products, said she had contemplated more drastic surgery, dismissing it because it made other women look ‘unreal’.
She admitted, however: ‘There’s a doctor here in London who I’ve gone to for Botox. I did a whole skincare line with him. But I haven’t done Botox for ten years. And I didn’t do collagen, I don’t think.’
Miss Crawford, married to ex-model and businessman Rande Gerber, also revealed: ‘Because people have such expectations of what they are going to find when they see me, that brings added pressure to fight the ageing process.’
But she added in the interview, to be published in GQ magazine this week: ‘I mean, don’t get me wrong, I think I’m holding together pretty good.’
Onlookers in Mexico, where the supermodel and her husband are holidaying with George Clooney and his latest girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis, may well agree.
They could be forgiven for being confused about who was who as the quartet enjoyed the sunshine, lounging round the pool.
For though Miss Crawford is 12 years older than 31-year-old model and actress Miss Canalis, the two could have been mistaken for twins.
Both wore bikinis, showing off their enviable figures as they swam and sunbathed, while Clooney, Gerber and a friend had obviously spotted an interesting sight as they larked around with binoculars.
Firm friends, Clooney and the Gerber-Crawfords often vacation together, whether it’s on the former’s yacht on the French Riviera or at his Lake Como home in Italy.
