Korean Popstar Psy Told to Get
a Facelift
October 7, 2012 By Trevor Green
The breakout song “Gangnam Style” has gained Korean music artist Psy
international fame, but he was told years prior to have cosmetic surgery to
seek success.
Psy talked about this with Contact Music, noting that “he was
horrified when label chiefs demanded he undergo a drastic image overhaul.” One
agency thought that the voice on his music was a different person than what
emerged.
“The agency heard my raps and were picturing a six-foot tall,
sharp-looking, trendy guy. But the CEO opened our meeting with the statement,
‘What are we going to do with this?’ Staff said, ‘How about we make him wear a
cool mask?’” Psy recalled.
The agency’s solution was plastic surgery, but the CEO did not think
that would be enough, according to Psy. But the joke was on the company, as
Psy’s “Gangnam Style” has more than 353 million YouTube views and is topping
the UK music charts.
