About Jocelyn Wildenstein

Jocelyn Wildenstein (born as Jocelynnys Dayannys da Silva-Bezerra in Lausanne, Switzerland August 5, 1940), sometimes referred to as the "Lion Queen" or "Cat Woman," is a wealthy socialite who has frequently been seen in the tabloid press due to her numerous cosmetic surgeries. Her appearance has led to the press giving her the nickname "The Bride of Wildenstein", a reference to The Bride of Frankenstein. Wildenstein has reportedly spent £2,000,000 ($4,000,000) on cosmetic surgery over the years. In 2004 she was named the world's scariest celebrity on British tabloid The Daily Mail's website. Talk show host Craig Ferguson often uses a photo of her as part of a comedy bit on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, proclaiming her picture to be that of singer Kenny Rogers, who has also undergone plastic surgery.

A lover of exotic animals, Jocelyn kept a capuchin monkey which traveled with the couple on their private jet, and a pack of five Italian greyhounds.

She is known to have received several silicone injections to the lips, cheek, and chin along with a facelift and eye reconstruction to appear more "feline". Her eyes were pulled up and back, giving them a more feline shape. This is also why she has been given the nickname "the real cat woman"
