Supermodel Karen Mulder Arrested for Threatening Her Plastic Surgeon

A case of plastic surgery gone awry? Supermodel Karen Mulder has decided to take what may be botched surgery into her own hands by threatening her plastic surgeon!

Telegraph UK reports that the 39-year old supermodel is being held in police custody in Paris after being arrested for allegedly placing threatening phone calls to her plastic surgeon.

The detective on the case said that Mulder demanded that a previous operation be reversed and "'was screaming and shouting about the operation and became extremely threatening.'"

Known for her runway grace and stunning good looks, Mulder in her heyday modeled for the likes of Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent and was close friends with a pre-Sarkozy Carla Bruni.

But despite huge ad campaigns, including posing for Victoria's Secret, Mulder has exhibited unstable behavior before. After her modeling days, the Dutch model apparently went through a bout of depression and reportedly had a failed suicide attempt in 2002.

Mulder returned to the runway in seemingly good form for Dior's Fall 2007 Couture show.

The bit of fashion irony here -- and one that Telegraph also points out -- is that Mulder was arrested in the 8th arrondissement in Paris, the same place she got her modeling start in the Eighties with the Elite Paris agency. Sadly, things have come full circle.

Her face and body are her career. If he ruined her face, he essentially disabled her. If he paid her to do a runway show for him and she broke his hands (destroying his career), people would not be surprised that he was angry for destroying his life. I don't even want to imagine how I would feel if my face and my career were ruined by someone. She paid this man a lot of money to perform a service he said he could do.

I do a lot of TV and modeling work. My business is all about looks and how to look perfect at any time, and any place. I’m not young anymore and this is now harder than ever. I thought my career was almost over but GenFX™ is my secret weapon. Quite honestly, I look 10 years younger than my real age! http://www.antiaginggenfx.com/

Working as an esthetician I always get people asking what they can do about their wrinkles and cellulite. For wrinkles I tell them about Pure Lift Ultra http://ultimateanti-aging.info and how it is an incredible anti-aging, anti-wrinkle cream that contains the most potent, doctor grade, wrinkle erasing ingredients that tone and tighten the skin for a smoother, younger face. It's much better, safer, and less expensive than Botox. They always come back to tell me how great it is and how much younger they look. It’s a great product and I back it up 100%. http://ultimateanti-aging.info

For cellulite problems I always recommend Body Solution http://cli.gs/CelluliteSolutions a cellulite toning system that is clinically proven to smooth cellulite and firm in as little as 72 hours.

Here's an idea, don't do anything to alter your natural looks and these problems wouldn't come to light ! People need to start accepting others for their natural beauty instead of making people look like something they are not ! And furthermore people need to have more confidence in their natural appearances instead of ruining what their parents created !

I am in love and his name is Mr. Power Colon Cleanse http://tinyurl.com/PowerColonCleanse ! This is by far the best cleansing product available. I saw it on Oprah and thought I would give it a try. Power Colon Cleanse has pretty much changed the way I live my life. My daily chores are done in a breeze and I have more energy, not to mention more time in my day since I don't mind jumping out of bed in the mornings at 7:00 am now. This is not just a cleanser. It is also a detox. I can feel it working and have only been using it for 6 weeks.
I owe my life to http://tinyurl.com/PowerColonCleanse

If you eat properly and get a moderate amount of exercise you have no need for that crap your shilling in your email. Get a life. It's advertising, and misleading advertising at that.

You douchebags! SHE ruined her own face by subjecting it to vain attempts at drinking from the Fountain of Youth...but the fountain was dry. Poor girl, apparently borne of the shallow end of the gene pool.

I didn't have to have plastic surgery. I found the secret to successful weight loss and it's not as hard as it sounds. I started working out each morning on an empty stomach, and taking all natural ACAI-eez with each meal. ACAI-eez suppresses the appetite, increases metabolism and liver function, gives you a natural boost of energy without making you feel jittery, and has the highest ORAC value of any other superfood on the market. ACAI-eez never auto bills or auto ships so you can order with assurance. To lose weight and feel great, take advantage of their Buy 3 get 1 Free Internet special. Go to their website to learn more about healthy, natural weight loss, and to get your ACAI-eez at http://www.acai-eez.com

Anyone who has to have plastic surgery to create an image worthy of modeling career, in my opinion has no business in the profession. Anyone can look "glamorous" if they surgically alter every little imperfection or spend their lives getting pumped, preened, airbrushed, and injected with chemicals and by substituting or enhancing every feature with prosthetic devices and implants.
A true supermodel in my estimation is a natural beauty who stays fit through a healthy diet and exercise and doesn't need 17 layers of clown-like make-up before she can show her face on camera. I see tons of naturally pretty girls in pageants here in Delaware all the time.

You pays your money, you takes your chances. Plastic surgery is a gamble, unfortunately, and these surgeons make mistakes or they simply don't know beforehand what they are really doing. Everyone, even the very rich, need to understand that. But still, he took her face in his hands and flubbed it. He needs to compensate this woman big-time, whose livelihood is now seriously threatened. I don't blame her for being upset at all, he probably turned a deaf ear when she tried to talk to him.

Delinquent Model!!!

She did something against the law therefore she has to pay for what she did. SHe should even be fired as a model after those threats she made.

Being fat, constipated and wrinkled I thought my life was over. Then one day a friend told be about "googlaberry juice". I followed directions and drank 4 gallons a day and the weight just dropped off me. Those last few pound were tough until the same friend told me about "rotoscreamer" colon cleanse. Those last few pound were flushed away. Still depressed because my skin looked like a river bed during the dry season, my friend told me how she swears by "botoxacrack". It's a mixture of botox and crack cocaine. On my first hit the wrinkles disappeared! They came back 9 minutes later but go away again as long as you keep toking.
