Clay Aiken – $11,000

Plastic surgery has been considered taboo for quite some time, especially in the entertainment industry. Some celebrities who have had beauty enhancement procedures even try their hardest to avoid the topic during interviews. However, the case is not the same with American Idol alum Clay Aiken. The forty-two-year-old singer openly admits having gone under the cosmetic knife. After his stint in the television singing contest, he moved to his next show, Celebrity Apprentice. Fans were surprised to see a different-looking Aiken in the show’s promotional posts.

It turns out that it was more than just an investment in the musician’s good looks. Aiken had surgery on his jaw to treat his temporomandibular joint disorder. He said in an interview, “…I had them suck the fat out of my chin while they were in there.” It seems like he hit two birds with one stone on this one.
