Dying to Look Sexy . . . .

It's amazing to me how vanity can take over one's life - and death, apparently.

Today's Toronto Star reports:


Beauty queen dies for 'firmer behind'

December 01, 2009


BUENOS AIRES, Argentina–
A 38-year-old former Miss Argentina has died from complications after undergoing cosmetic surgery on her buttocks.


Solange Magnano, a mother of twins who won the crown in 1994, died of a pulmonary embolism Sunday after three days in critical condition following a gluteoplasty in Buenos Aires.

Fashion designer and friend Roberto Piazza said the procedure also involved injections, and the liquid "went to her lungs and brain."

"A woman who had everything lost her life to have a slightly firmer behind," he said.

Juan Carlos Seiler, former president of the Buenos Aires Association of plastic surgeons, told the Times of London that the doctor who performed the procedure might not have been "a real professional."


Firm butt and dead.

How's that for a trade-off ? ? ? ?
