John, who recalled being nicknamed “Big Nose Stamos” as a child, shared why he turned to cosmetic surgery. “Everyone who gets a nose job tries to search out some excuse aside from vanity,” he wrote, “but let’s call it what it was—vanity.”
And while the Big Shot actor admits that he would’ve probably continued to tweak his face during this time in his life, his mom, Loretta Stamos, helped him stay grounded.
“My mom figures if I would like to proceed doing this work,” John added, “she’ll be certain that I’m secure, supported, and having an excellent time. It matters to her that I do not get so swept up within the moment that I lose my connection to family, friends, faith, and fun.”
