When Carrot Top reemerged over a decade ago, appearing noticeably different, fans immediately began to speculate about the cause of the comedian's seemingly sudden transformation. The "Chairman of the Board" star, pictured here in 2005 and 2018, has adamantly denied the rumors, saying that his chiseled jaw, and toned face were the result of lifestyle changes.
"I just worked out a lot, and I never had any plastic surgery. I can see why people would think that since I got really big for a while, but I never had any work done," he told Florida Today in 2015. It was during Carrot Top's time in Vegas that he recalls becoming immersed in his workout regime. His newly developed muscular frame came equipped with a more defined facial structure, according to Carrot Top. "I mean, if I was going to have plastic surgery, I would look better than this," the comedian joked. "My crew, my family and my friends all know I work so hard I wouldn't have had time to get work done if I wanted to."
In a 2013 interview with Oprah (via HuffPost), Carrot Top was also dismissive. "I'm sorry that I look good," he cracked. "I get a lot of grief because I've always been in shape and I think for comedy in general, they don't expect comics to be in shape."
