RIP Dr. Fredric Brandt

[themanintheseersuckersuit]

Celebrity dermatologist to the stars Dr. Fredric Brandt reportedly committed suicide at his Miami mansion on Sunday. He was 65.

Brandt–whose celebrity clients included Madonna, Kelly Ripa, Stephanie Seymour, and Jane Holzer–was reportedly found dead by a housekeeper at his Coconut Grove mansion, according to the Miami Herald. Herald reporter Lesley Abravanel told the Daily Mail that sources close to the doctor said he had hanged himself.

According to Abravanel, Brandt was “devastated” after being satirized on an episode of the Netflix comedy series The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. In the episode, Martin Short plays a plastic surgeon with physical features similar to Brandt, who “reinflates” his face after it is dented by a punch and prescribes a “toenail resizing” for ditzy socialite Jacqueline Voorhees, played by Jane Krakowski.

I watched this show and I thought it was Martin Short who should have been considering seppuku for his acting.

A profile in The New York Times last year reads:

‘“To visit La Grenouille, Le Cirque, the Four Seasons or the Core club, or to travel the benefit circuit in New York and Los Angeles, is undoubtedly to encounter a Brandt creation, a person whose skin is smooth and yet not freakishly taut, whose cheeks possess the firm curvature of a wheel of Edam, whose unblemished flesh calls to mind a Jumeau bisque doll, a baby’s bottom or, perhaps, Madonna.”’

More likely he was devastated when, after years of not having access to a mirror, he saw his reflection in one and realized "I look like I've been Photoshopped by a 5-year old blind chimp."

Agreed on the show- Dr. Brandt should have been comforted. He was skewered but I doubt anyone actually streams that show regularly.

I tried- it is one of the stupidest things I have ever watched- seriously.

RIP Dr. Brandt.

If I were him, a quick look at my bank book would get me over any sense of "devastation" I felt after Martin Short made fun of me.
