Kate Beckinsale claps back at plastic surgery accusations: ‘I’m not lying’

This star is coming for the trolls.

While Kate Beckinsale wowed on the Cannes Film Festival red carpet last week in a bedazzled sheer romper with a dramatic train, her outfit wasn’t the only thing attracting attention on social media.

The 49-year-old — who rocked the Zuhair Murad Couture ensemble at the “The Pot-au-Feu” premiere on May 24 — attracted quite a few haters on her Instagram post from the glam evening, with many accusing her of getting plastic surgery.

“please tell me you had a facelift because it’s not possible to be this gorgeous at 50,” one fan commented, prompting Beckinsale to respond to the Instagram user (along with several others) to defend her youthful looks.

“no threads no thread lift no Botox no laser no nose job no filler,” the “Serendipity” actress wrote.

She continued by explaining she does get “facials with prp to boost collagen and micro current for skin tightening and oxygen,” adding, “I probably would try laser but I’m a bit scared . Haven’t so far.”

Her comment seemingly prompted another fan to write, “Lol why do Celebrities have to deny their face procedures? Just dont lie about it ..she still looks great!”

Beckinsale — who said in 2021 she doesn’t think about aging “that much” — clapped back, “I haven’t had a facelift or filler or Botox. I’m not lying and I don’t have to accept people accusing me of things I haven’t done.”

She continued her commenting spree by telling another Instagram user who asked, “whatever happened to aging naturally..so sad” that she has “no filler” and “don’t be sad for me. X.”

Further down in the “Underworld” actress’ comments section, Beckinsale replied to another remark accusing her of getting “botox and fillers,” revealing that she has a medical condition that keeps her from wanting to do so.

“I actually can’t I have a condition called mast cell activation syndrome which is actually a massive daily struggle and means I react to hundreds of things badly,” she wrote. “Can’t take the risk.”

This isn’t the first time Beckinsale has defended her ageless appearance.

In 2021, she told the Sunday Times she hadn’t “had any [work done],” adding she wasn’t “against” it but gets “get pissed off” when people make the assumption.

“I know if I did do Botox, I’d be the one that would get the droopy eye and my mum would go, ‘I f—king told you! See? You should never do that,'” she added.

As for her Instagram haters, it seems like looking good is the best revenge.
