To wish you were more "fake" in appearance when you were younger?

I don't like Lady Gaga's music that much, but I am fascinated by her physical transformation. She's about 6 years younger than me, and at this point, her public persona and appearance is obviously blatantly fake and I feel like she's kind of making fun of other pop stars who came and went before her. It reminds me of when I was in my twenties, about her age, and how I went the opposite route and had a natural look--I gave up makeup and bras (my boobs are small and don't sag), and I always wore "comfortable/casual clothing". When I was 24 or 25, I dressed up once for halloween with alot of makeup, fake boobs, false eyelashes, and a shorter blonde wig (i'm naturally a red head), revealing dress, and I had alot of fun that night not being myself...I even danced with people that I did not know (i usually can't bring myself to do that)...not to mention the extra attention I got for pretty much looking like a whore. So, what I'm getting at, is it normal to wish I had spent more of my twenties being fake in appearance, when I could get away with it? I think fake starts to look gross on a more mature woman. Some people still think I'm younger than I am, but now it just wouldn't make sense to look like something I'm not.

    Being yourself is always the better choice. Have no regrets.

    I don't think Lady GaGa is faking it. I think she is really just that weird. Some people are and some people are not. The fact she would go through so much effort makes me believe she is that weird. All celebeties have a type of style. Just like I think goths generally do enjoy the spooky black cloth.

    Live it up each Halloween. :) That can be your time to get it out of your system, and it's perfectly acceptable.

    On a more serious note, I know what it's like to have little regrets about the past. There is definite truth to the adage "youth is wasted in the young" and I'm not that old! I do wish I had been less inhibited myself and realized a lot of things just DON'T matter as much as I thought they did.
