Albo denies plastic surgery rumours
Anthony Albanese has denied rumours that he has had botox done and that his best weight loss secret is to cut the carbs and “give up the bread”.
The Australian Prime Minister appeared on NovaFM’s Fitzy and Wippa where he spoke about his weight loss journey.
The presenters then pointed out that an article written by the Daily Mail caught their attention in which it questioned whether or not Mr Albanese had botox done.
“It was a headline that struck us, Prime Minister, in the Daily Mail, ‘Botox fillers or just clean living? Albo debuts a fresh new look as he sports a smoother complexion following his weight loss and style transformation’.
“Have you had Botox and how many fillers have you had, Prime Minister?’’ they asked him.
Mr Albanese laughed off the claim and instead took a dig at the reporter and the leading cosmetic injector.
“Seriously, I think whoever wrote that article's been having Botox in the wrong place,” he said.
He went on to talk about how a near death experience in which he was involved in a car crash, caused him to take charge of his health.
“For anybody listening right there might be carrying a couple of kilos. What was your one tip or secret that you had to the weight loss?’’ he was probed.
“Don’t eat the bread,’’ the Prime Minister replied.
“I just had two boiled eggs for breakfast. It keeps you going to lunchtime.
“Stopping eating in between meals is the big thing.”
Mr Albanese confessed that he still indulged every now and then with beer and hot chips, but all in moderation.
“I get to have a beer every now and then. Both light and heavy,’’ he said.
“I have the odd hot chip and all of that. Not be too religious about it. It took a long period. It was over 18 months. But the real motivation, I don’t recommend this, was having a near life ending car crash.
“And that was a real wake up call to get fit and get healthy. It’s worked. I feel much better for it and I just feel much better in the morning but much better throughout the day.”
