Wendi McLendon-Covey revealed Sunday that cosmetic surgery kept her away from the 15-year reunion of “Bridesmaids” at the Oscars on Sunday.
Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Rose Byrne, Maya Rudolph and Ellie Kemper got together to award original score and sound ― and McLendon-Covey said her phone was lighting up from people inquiring about her absence.
So she hilariously spilled the reason on Instagram with a selfie of her bandage-wrapped face.
“In response to some of the dms I’m getting: I had a neck lift last week because I’m tired of looking like a melting candle,” she wrote. “So I had to skip the Academy Awards. No drama. Everything is fine.”
Coincidentally enough in the Oscars comedy bit the “Bridesmaids” alums did, Melissa McCarthy read a note among several that carried a passive aggressive tone.
