Someone said to me that they wanted Chris to stop ageing, and I said basically the same as you. We've had a hell of a lot out of Chris over the years and as much as I'd ADORE new material, I also want her to be happy so... If walking her dogs and not seeing anyone is what makes her happy then so be it

If you click it a couple of times it gets bigger and you can read the article. There's a 2 page thread about it in the Christine forum.

I hate to say this and i'm not saying it to bash her, but until I saw The Dance promos I didn't find Chris all that attractive. I think she looks beautiful for The Dance maybe better then Stevie to some extent.

Anyway as to the rest of your question, yes mama bitches about the Botox but girl's no stranger to the needle. I suspect she's had/been having injections of dermal fillers for years.
Also she's picky about lighting and how she's photographed. That explains a lot about the way she looks in the Destiny Rules doc.
As for surgery to her face, I don't think so.

It's in the Christine McVie forum, under the Wickhambreaux thread.

I think Christine looked fantastic for The Dance and also looked great when she was promoting In the Meantime. But it was the real Chris I liked, the one that showed up on video and was moving around, with those familiar gestures and mannerisms.

The creature who was photographed for the Dance and Meantime album covers and Rolling Stone promotional pics . . . I don't think that was really Christine. It may have been her Navi avatar, grown for photo sessions.

I remember during the Time Space Tour, a radio DJ commented that Stevie had just had some lipo-suction done. Not sure if it's true.

As for Christine, she always had a simple look. I thought she look glamorous starting with the TITN era and rolling on into ITM. Although there was quite a bit of photography trickery in those shoots, very bright light (which takes away skin blemishes and natural color), and not to mention what the hell was done in post edit of the photos. That recent photo of her out with the dogs is probably what she's looked like for a long time. She seems very thin and gaunt. She will never be back with FM. She seems quite retired. Hell, I wouldn't want to work at all at her age either.

Really? Well, you just look at my signature then!
(Just to be sure, the answer to the question is "Yes!")

I think Christine's always been beautiful, but it is true that her looks have got better with age. The photograph in the newspaper article is all out candid and the only thing she probably had on her mind was making sure the dog didn't go in the road or poop on the sidewalk, not having full stage makeup on

Christine: No comment.

Stevie: Of course she's had some nips and tucks over the years. It is foolish to think she's had nothing done. She's an entertainer. She gets paid to look good and she is a bit on the vain side after all. Imagine millions of people scrutinizing your every nook and cranny lol. I do not think she's had a major overhaul but she's definitely had some refining and rejuvenating here and there and quite frankly I could care less. She will remain timeless in my heart, wrinkles or not.

I really don't like the cover photo on In The Meantime. Sorry guys but I just don't think it does her justice. It's such a shame because Chris is naturally pretty and striking to look at but I just find that picture too false-looking, which jars with what I feel is a very relaxed, sometimes intimate album. I wish the artwork was more natural... but then it's up to her!

I think Stevie has had some touchups, and probably will have some in the future, because she "cannot not look like Stevie Nicks!"

"After being a rock and roll sex symbol after all that time and then all of the sudden to be this little fat girl was just sooo unacceptable to me! I cannot not look like Stevie Nicks!! I created this image, I created the clothes, the hair, the whole look! If I cannot look like her, then I'm not going to go on anymore!"

I'm pretty sure the above quote was Stevie's response regarding NOT having any major work done.

No it was her response to refusing to sing on stage anymore because she was 175 lbs, because she didn't look like "Stevie Nicks" and if she couldn't look like she used to then she wasn't going to perform anymore. It wasn't a quote that had anything to do with plastic surgery, but I do feel it shows just how vain mamma can be. Not that thats a bad thing tho, I'm all for her rejuvenating herself a bit every once in a while, just as long as she doesn't go way overboard!

I hate to burst anyone's bubble but 61 year old women do not look like that without having a little help and given that Stevie herself has admitted having botox and surgery (for her breast implants) in the past, it doesn't seem to me to be that far of a stretch that she's had other things done too.

+1... people take this woman far, far too literally. She's the queen of saying one thing, doing the exact opposite too. "So today she says, well I changed my mind... that's a woman's right they say!"
