Donatella Versace and the Uncanny Valley

The world would be a far less horrific place if there was a cap on what sort of plastic surgery a person can get. I was watching the Versace story on the Bio channel when it occurred to me how Donatella V. has joined the ranks of plasticked out women and entered the Uncanny Valley.

It's prophetic I swear. Like something out of a bad Science Fiction movie where robots and humans eventually converge into the Uncanny valley, one in the attempt for naturalism, the other, for artificiality. Eventually Earth is overwhelmed by a race of sub-humans with repulsive faces from which you can not read anything from. With all emotion and feeling abolished from facial expression, we become a race where emotions are felt from a statistical analysis of events and actions from a person's past.

Seriously, can you imagine an entire drama with actors that have undergone so much plastic surgery you can't read their expressions anymore? Oh wait... no need to imagine there.

Fear not...
