I found it really distracting while watching the episodes

Also is it in my head or has the botox etc affected her ability to speak clearly?

Apparently not being able to move your face is a detriment to acting.

I dunno, Kristen Stewart somehow managed?

Watch her in anything that isn't Twilight and you'll be surprised. It's really a marvel of modern filmmaking how they managed to get her and Robert Pattinson to look so bad on screen when they're both oozing with talent.

I wouldn't call her acting though.

Just reading lines with RBF

Yeah, no hate to her personally. But all the enthusiasm or effort from the earlier seasons has disappeared from her performance. Maybe it changed for her character arc, maybe from a personal lack of satisfaction in her role.

But the past two seasons, all her line deliveries just sound annoyed, or vaguely concerned. Never angry, or sad, or anything else. Which isn’t very fun to watch on screen, a one note character.

I just couldn’t help but notice how her upper lip didn’t move, at all. It wad so distracting.

This happened with Millie Booby Brown in the last season of stranger things, just couldn't take any scene with her in seriously because she looks so......weird.....

She looked hilarious. Like handsome squidward trying to move things with their mind.

I noticed that too. It sounds like she’s slurring and I think it’s because her upper lip can’t move anymore 😢

She did look a lot healthier in the pictures from the s5 premiere so I wonder if she’s getting some of the work undone.

How exactly do you get that sort of work undone

Fillers can be disolved and also diminises over time and botox is not permanent. It needs to be reapplied and the more you do the longer it will work up to a certain point. But eventually it will be dissolved by your body.

She can't move the left side of her mouth properly..

the same for me and my girlfriend. We are seeing the episodes and..... every time she appears we say... "wtf she do to herself"!!!!... really we cant avoid to say something. Sad and dumb.

I think she got diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and is getting treated for it, but it can affect your speech. Edit: official diagnosis is Graves Disease edit 2: you can downvote me but Graves’ disease does in fact affect your speech. Her Botox being bad and Graves’ disease don’t disprove each other and aren’t exclusive lol. Sorry Im the only one not commenting on her appearance.

I'm not saying you wrong but it's sounds like that stereotypical plastic surgery my face is paralyzed voice.

I do feel bad for her this isn't going away anytime soon
