Joan Collins slammed the Kardashians, claiming that they aren’t genuine!
The 89-year-old British actress is best known for her performances in Dynasty, The Bitch, The Stud, Empire of the Ants, The Royals, The Bravados, Tales of the Unexpected, Seven Thieves, Island in the Sun, Star Trek, and The Times of Their Lives.
Joan Collins released her new memoir, ‘My Unapologetic Diaries,’ in 2021, an entertaining book full of juicy secrets and genuinely uncensored thoughts about the entertainment industry and various celebrities such as Linda Evans, the Kardashians, Gregory Peck, Prince Andrew, and many more.
According to Daily Mail, The Stud alum “published the diaries she kept at a critical juncture in her career, starting in 1996.”
“Her Dynasty days, when she was at the pinnacle of her appeal (and earning power), were behind her, and she was suffering that affliction so familiar to Hollywood actresses: being over 50, and suddenly invisible to the studio bosses.”
“It’s about how you cope with a smile on your face as you go down the ladder of success,” she said.
“She never planned for these diaries – spoken into a ‘cute little tape recorder’ at the end of every day – to be published, but perhaps it was only a matter of time. Dame Joan has now written way more books than she’s had husbands (some 16, as opposed to just five husbands).”
Joan Collins stated in her book that people who undergo plastic surgery and beauty enhancement treatments to the point where they look like completely different people with no authenticity aren’t beautiful and merit no compliments for their phony appearance.
“What’s wrong with that? It’s true. I mean, I’m sorry. What am I supposed to say? She’s a beauty? I have friends who say, ‘Hello, gorgeous’ to everyone. When people say that to me I say, ‘Don’t say that to me when you say it to people who look horrible,” referring to Tara Palmer-Tomkinson, a British socialite who was once known as a “society beauty.”
The Dynasty actress then went on to criticize her costar, Linda Evans, for her plastic surgery.

“Are you supposed to ignore somebody when they come in with tape on their eyelid?” said Joan Collins. “Every one of the other actors was saying, ‘What do you think she had done?’”
“Am I the only one who thinks there’s an obesity crisis? Those lips people have done, I think they look ludicrous,” she added about the latest trends in the beauty enhancement field. “I’m sorry. And if people want to go round looking like that I’m going to laugh at it.”
“We all talk about it. Have you ever been in a hairdresser’s? The Kardashians, for instance.”
“Kris Jenner, their mother, is a good friend of mine and I don’t want to be rude about her children,” Joan Collins wrote. “But there’s an awful lot of surgery there and I’ve talked to my friends about it, as I’m sure you have, the bottoms, the tiny waists.”
