British actress Kate Beckinsale has been "driven to despair" by rumors she has undergone breast enlargement surgery.

The "Pearl Harbor" star was reported to have opted for a figure-enhancement operation in 2005, after she was photographed sporting a noticeably larger chest.

But the 34-year-old insists her breasts grew naturally when she gained weight for her role in 2005 movie "The Aviator."

And Beckinsale has now vowed not to answer any questions about the rumored surgery, because she is sick of talking about it.

She says, "The boob job thing has driven me to despair. I'm not discussing my breasts with anyone but my husband and my daughter from now on.

"I think once you start saying, 'No, I haven't' too many times, it sounds as if you're protesting too much."

TMZ has learned Priscilla Presley is the victim of a botched cosmetic procedure. What's worse -- it was at the hands of a gigolo who was sent to prison for perpetrating an injectable scam on Hollywood's elite.

Priscilla, whose face looks ... strange on "Dancing with the Stars," went to Dr. Daniel Serrano around 2003. Serrano was a good-looking doc from Argentina who hooked into Hollywood's social A-list and started giving them what he claimed were miracle injections that worked better than Botox.

In fact, Serrano was injecting industrial, low-grade silicone similar to what's used to lubricate auto parts in Argentina into the faces of these women. Several women, including Shawn King, Larry's wife, and Diane Richie, Lionel's wife at the time, held injection parties in their homes, with Serrano needling them with the non-FDA approved drug that he had smuggled in to the U.S. Shawn King has said the injections created a lump in her lip that made it difficult to speak and drink liquids. Serrano charged between $300 and $500 a pop.

Serrano, who was nicknamed Dr. Jiffy Lube, was indicted by the Feds for smuggling drugs, and the conspiracy and use of unapproved drugs. He was convicted, and last week he was released and is currently being investigated by federal immigration officials and could be deported.

"I had a boob job. There it is. I finally said it. I wanted to come clean that I had my boobs done in my 20s because people falsely write that I've had all these things done. I've had the two procedures that probably every other woman in Hollywood has had done."

"I was sick of not fitting into my tops. There was this one House Of Dereon top - I just wanted to fill that out. I simply went from an A-cup to a B-cup. I didn't want to have double-Ds and be little bitty size two - that would look nuts! It is a decision I made for myself. I like it, and that's all that counts."

Victoria Beckham reportedly had her breast implants removed to stop her boobs falling out on the Spice Girls tour.

Victoria, also known as Posh, was worried her ample bosom may pop out of her tight Roberto Cavalli outfits while performing the band's dance routines and decided to have her implants taken out to avoid any embarrassing wardrobe malfunctions.

A source is quoted as saying: "There is speculation she had her implants taken out for the tour so she can fit into the costumes without the risk of them falling out during some of the more energetic routines."

Victoria, 33, previously denied having a boob job until court papers were released in 2005 proving she had undergone surgery.

Britney Spears has had liposuction on her bottom and hips, it was claimed today.

The 25-year-old was reportedly house hunting in Las Vegas at the weekend, but sources say she had some nip and tuck while there.

It's not the first time Britney has turned to cosmetic procedures in a desperate bid to improve her appearance - she had her pout plumped just last month.

It was also reported she had liposuction in Vegas last April, which the star denies.

"My plastic surgeon had to special order them."

Daniel Craig has vowed to never have plastic surgery - because he doesn't want to look "like a lesbian".

The James Bond star is determined to grow old gracefully, and thinks stars who do choose to go under the knife risk looking like "freaks" when they are older.

He said: "You've got to get on with it. If things start to come out, or things start to drop.

"It's tricky, it really is, because no-one likes to get old and sag.

"People can improve themselves when they are younger, but when you're 60 or 70, you start looking like a freak. You end up looking like a lesbian big sister and that's not right!"

"Brit hoped her new lips would improve her look without being really obvious to anyone. But onlookers literally stood opened mouthed when they saw her. She looked freaky."
