I just had to add this one to the Cellulite Files: An episode of the television show Dr. Phil titled, “You’re Not Hot Enough.” It’s an older episode but still worth mentioning because of how outrageous it is. Check it:
Loathing Her Legs
Michele says her husband, Carl, is embarrassed by her looks and hates seeing her naked. Carl admits he finds Michele’s legs disgusting and says surgery may be the answer. He’d like her to have sculpted thighs, thinner calves, and no cellulite.
The husband comes off as a real jerk:
“I am not comfortable with my wife being naked because of the way her legs look,” Carl admits. “I really like Elle Macpherson’s legs.”
*falls off of chair*
What does Michelle, the wife, have to say?
“In my dreams, I would be able to put on a bathing suit and take my kids swimming at the YMCA.” She turns to Dr. Phil for help. “I want my husband to be attracted to me the way he used to be. Can you help us?”

Dr Phil’s response?
Dr. Phil looks at Michele and says, “I would not go and get my legs fixed for him. Not in a million years. Two wrongs don’t make a right.” He points out that if Michele qualified for it, she could have surgery to change the appearance of her legs.
I’d love to know exactly what surgery he is talking about here, because it’s well known that liposuction is a big N.O. when it comes to cellulite. I’m going to explore this topic in a future blog post. Stay tuned!
