Sarah Paulson is clearing the air on whether she’s had any work done.
“I don’t put anything in my face. I have no goo in there,” Paulson, 51, said on the Thursday, November 12, episode of the “Dear Chelsea” podcast. “Everyone thinks I have. People all over the internet think that I’ve done my lips, my forehead, everything.”
She continued, stressing, “I’ve done nothing to my face.”
Podcast host Chelsea Handler further gushed that the All’s Fair actress “doesn’t need anything” anyway.
“There’s going to be a big rebellion against plastic surgery,” Handler, 51, predicted. “I think so.”
Paulson, however, wasn’t convinced, noting she looks at facelifts “every day.”
Even so, Paulson has long been a proponent of aging gracefully and naturally.
“Well, since I don’t shoot anything into my face at this particular juncture, I imagine everyone knows I’m 49,” she told longtime BFF Pedro Pascal in a 2024 conversation for Interview. “If there’s anything that’s going to age me rapidly, it’s going back to the theater.”
She added at the time, “Sometimes I’m backstage doing this play, Appropriate, and I’m thinking, ‘Wow, I’m making these facial expressions multiple times a day all day for months on end. I’ve never had those lines in between my eyebrows.’ Well, I expect when I’m done with this play, they’ll be there permanently.”
Paulson briefly relocated to New York City to star on Broadway, eventually moving back to Los Angeles with longtime partner Holland Taylor. Speaking on Handler’s podcast, the American Horror Story star noted she wanted to move back to the Big Apple one day.
“Holland has a little place in New York, but it’s not big enough for the both of us,” she quipped. “I think her life is really here, so my life is going to be here until she decides to move to New York.”
Paulson and Taylor, 83, have been together since 2015 but don’t foresee marriage in their future.
“I’m happy that I haven’t been married because I feel that I’ve maintained some sense of myself in a way,” she said on Thursday’s episode. “For marriage to me somehow, it’s like… the bond, the connectivity I have with Holland, it feels, we talk about it all the time, I feel married to her. But I don’t have, or have never had, the need to, like, have it be something written in stone somehow. The stoneness of it makes me want to, like, it gives me the heebie-jeebies.”
She added, “I want to feel this kind of freedom. That’s not about being away from her or being with another person. It’s just about maintaining some sense of my own independence, and I think Holland feels that way too. We just have never, ever, ever felt the need to.”
