What HAS Renee Zellweger done to her face?

Daily Mail

WALK AWAY RENEE
sung by The Four Tops

And when I see the sign that points one way
The lot we used to pass by every day

Just walk away, Renée
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame

From deep inside the tears
I'm forced to cry
From deep inside the pain
That I chose to hide

Just walk away, Renée
You won't see me follow you back home
Now as the rain burns down upon my
weary eyes
For me it cries

Just walk away, Renée
You won't see me follow you back home
Now as the rain burns down upon my weary eyes
For me it cries

Your name and mine inside
A heart on a wall
Still finds a way to haunt me
Though they're so small

Just walk away, Renée
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame
= LOOK AT YOU NOW, RENEE
by www.eeriewoman.com

We liked your milky skin, the feline eyes,
The baby-cheeks as plump as apple-pie.

Why did you change Renée?
Your many fans didn't want you to,
That horsey face, the now blank smile are not the same,
It's you we blame.

Why can't you see what you
Perceived as flaws
Were facets of your face
That we all adored?

Look at you now, Renée,
The same as so many other babes,
You think we like you with your brow so smooth 'n' new,
Well it's not true.

Look at you now, Renée,
A wilful woman who lost her way
The mystery's gone and now we think you seem just bland,
Just perma-tanned.

You won't play Bridget Jones,
No, the moment's passed,
You're just like someone from a
'Mamma Mia' cast

Look at the new Renée
A symbol of mediocrity,
Remember when your face had personality?
It's sad to see.
