| Title: | Media-bodies and screen-births: Cosmetic surgery reality television |
| Author: | Jones Meredith |
| Abstract: | Cosmetic surgery reality television (CSRTV) is notmerely about cosmetic surgery, normerely about reality television: it is a blend of these two areas and hence bothmedia and bodiesmust be analysed when examining it.1 I suggest that this genre sits at a nexus of transformed bodies that are at once fleshy and digital, three-dimensional and two-dimensional, on the screen and in the living world. |
