The Big Bang Theory star Kaley Cuoco is a workout junkie — those toned legs and arms owe it all to yoga* and serious horseback riding. But the boobs and the perfectly symmetrical schnoz? That’s the work of surgeons on an operating table, not downward dog on the yoga mat.

Cuoco now reveals that she’s undergone plastic surgery on her nose (rhinoplasty) and had “her boobs done.” In an interview with Women’s Health, Cuoco calls the plastic surgery the “best thing I ever did.” Hard to argue from a career perspective. In a Hollywood obsessed with youth, shape and perfection — especially (only?) when it comes to women — Cuoco became the highest paid actress on television signing a $90 million deal in 2014. The plastic surgery reveal may come as a blow to many who hold up Cuoco as an exemplar of natural beauty. But the actress isn’t apologizing. “As much as you want to love your inner self,” she says, “I’m sorry, you also want to look good.”

* Cuoco told Shape mag last year about her toned sexiness: “I owe it 100 percent to yoga.”
