The World’s Most Bizarre Women: Beauties That Turned into Beasts, Dolls and Strange Figures [PHOTOS]
Le Woman Lepore
So yes she's a popular nightlife icon and can be seen almost in the buff. So why is this petite chapel muse on this list? Because Amanda Lepore was born Armand Lepore and is one of America's leading transgender icons who went the whole way with a sex reassignment surgery, and as far as plastic surgery is concerned - from the actual organ change surgery to the multitudinous surgeries she's had on her face so that she could look like a cross between Marilyn Monroe and Jessica Rabbit.
The Bride of Wildenstein
Jocelyn Wildenstein wanted to be married to her husband forever and apparently was so obsessed and insecure about this that she decided to turn into a "lion lady" just like her husband's favourite pets. Rumour has it that the husband in question took one look at her and ran out of the bedroom, terrified. Needless to say a divorce followed but she did receive a heft settlement. She has been forever christened catwoman, cat lady, lion lady or the Bride of Wildenstein.
The Tiger Lady
The ex-wife of Enigma - the head-to-toe jigsaw puzzle tattooed guy - Katzen has over painful years, completely covered herself in tiger stripes and has real tiger whiskers implanted too! While her family supports it, needless to say her daughter is not terribly kicked about it though her son is cool. She says she cannot imagine life without being a tiger and oh, the sex as tiger lady is really hot. Rowr!
The Human Barbie Doll
No, we're not talking about Paris Hilton. This is 21-year-old Valeria Lukyanova from Russia, a pretty young woman who decided that normal wasn't fun enough. So she underwent surgeries and emerged out a tad prettier and a lot thinner. And then she popped in blue contacts, lots of makeup and donned a vacant stare. Omigod - that's Barbie. And for all your Barbie lovers out there, there's a human Ken too - aka Justine Jettica! So there!
Vanilla French doll?
Want more? Well a Japanese woman, Vanilla Chamu wanted to look like a French Doll and so she simply decided to change everything about herself. So far she's gone from ordinary Japanese girl to pretty Western woman in her looks and plans on continuing till she gets it right. Why? Because everyone called her ugly when she was a child, she got no love from her parents and became obsessed with a beautiful French doll. Would be funny if it weren't so sad!
I, Nefertiti
So Nefertiti is the most famous queen of Ancient Egypt in history, coming a close second to Cleopatra for legendary beauty. So when Nileen Namita, 52 got a lifetime of vivid dreams decoded by a therapist and discovered she was a reincarnation of Nefertiti, she decided to undergo over 51 plastic surgeries just to look like her! This mother of three refuses to give up till she totally molds herself in the image of the 'Beauty of the Nile'.
Like daughter, become daughter?
This tops this list of weirdest women ever. A Brit woman spent over 10,000 pounds on cosmetic surgery that left her looking exactly like her daughter - down to a T. From a size 14 redhead, Janet transformed herself into a mirror image of her daughter Jane. So does Jane mind? Apparently not, since she believes that mimicry is the sincerest form of flattery. And not only that Jane now styles her mom - and if they both go out, they are often mistaken as twins. Weird, or what!
Bizarre beauties indeed, some of whom have destroyed their identity, families and perhaps bank balances to acheive their quest of the perfect face!
