Sarah Paulson sets the record straight after plastic surgery rumors

Sarah Paulson issued a response to “people on the internet” speculating she’s secretly undergone plastic surgery.

The “American Horror Story” star put the rumors to bed during Thursday’s episode of Chelsea Handler’s “Dear Chelsea” podcast.

“I don’t put anything in my face. I have no goo in there,” the 51-year-old clarified. “People all over the internet think that I’ve done my lips, my forehead, everything. I’ve done nothing to my face.”

The actress set the record straight after Handler noted that Paulson was sitting on a different side of the couch than she normally does.

The “All’s Fair” star explained that she has a “better side” of her face and confirmed she often tries to film from that side “as much as possible” in her roles.

When Handler asked what Paulson’s issue was with the other side of her face, the Emmy winner explained that it is “just less sharp” and “just a little softer.”

Handler was quick to back up Paulson’s claim and noted, “No, I can see that you’ve done nothing. I don’t mean that in a negative way. You look like you, and you don’t look like you need anything.”

Paulson previously stated she didn’t “shoot anything” into her face during a conversation with her longtime friend Pedro Pascal for Interview magazine in April 2024.

The remark came when the Tony winner suggested her headlining role in the play “Appropriate” would age her skin.

“Sometimes I’m backstage … and I’m thinking, ‘Wow, I’m making these facial expressions multiple times a day all day for months on end. I’ve never had those lines in between my eyebrows,’” she mused.

“Well, I expect when I’m done with this play, they’ll be there permanently,” the Golden Globe winner quipped.

Paulson has dated fellow actress Holland Taylor, who is 83, since 2015 — and shared during Thursday’s sitdown that they have no plans to wed.
