Man Spends $27,000 And Nearly Dies Trying To Look Like David Beckham

What lengths would you go to to look like your idol? Well one man in England spent $27,000 on plastic surgery to resemble David Beckham, and it almost killed him.

His name is Jack Johnson and the 21-year-old had work done on his lips, chin, cheeks, forehead and teeth plus he had tan injections every month. The expensive procedures put him in debt and things got so bad for him he attempted suicide. 

On a British talk show Jack explained, "I tried to take my own life because trying to look like Beckham is a full time job and is not easy. Trying to look like Beckham nearly killed me and I don’t want others to make the same mistake."

Things have turned around for Jack lately and he's trying to reverse all the work he's had done. 

He also has a message for anyone who is obsessed with looking like their favorite star: "Nobody should ever aspire to look like celebrities to that extent, and I’m an example of that. You need to just be yourself."
