Louis Walsh denies cosmetic surgery claims

Louis Walsh is back on our screens in The X Factor, and while he’s scrutinising the singing talents of all the wannabe pop stars auditioning, it would seem the whole country is scrutinising his face.

Since t

he new series of The X Factor kicked off, there’s been lots of speculation that Louis has had some help to look more youthful. Fans have suggested that Louis has a smoother brow, implying that the 59-year-old Westlife manager has had botox. However, Louis has denied the surgery claoms saying, "Other than my eyes, it's all natural."

If you remember, back in 2009 Louis did undergo surgery on his eyes to remove bags and smooth out some wrinkles. But pals of Louis’ back up the talent show judge’s claims that he’s definitely not had any work done, telling The Mirror, “The truth is he keeps himself in great shape.”

As well as the eye bag surgery, Louis had of course had his teeth fixed (we think Simon Cowell puts a dental clause in all X Factor judges’ contracts).
