Renée Kathleen Zellweger

On October 20, 2014, Zellweger appeared at the 21st-annual Elle Magazine Women in Hollywood Awards looking dramatically different from her earlier appearance, leading many in media to remark that she is hardly recognizable as the same person. Zellweger responded, "Perhaps I look different. Who doesn't as they get older?! Ha. But I am different. I'm happy." Some plastic surgeons said they did not believe this "pretty remarkable change" was simply the result of aging and a change in mood, but rather resulted from "minor" or "subtle" cosmetic procedures.
Activism
Zellweger took part in the 2005 HIV prevention campaign of the Swiss federal health department.
