Tisdale underwent a rhinoplasty procedure on November 30 2007. According to Tisdale, this was done for health-related reasons and not out of a belief in plastic surgery; her "septum was 80 percent deviated" and she had "two small fractures on [her] nose", and this was interfering with her breathing. She spoke to People magazine about the surgery, saying that it was important to her to be honest with her fans.<ref>Monica Rizzo, "High School Musical's Ashley Tisdale Gets Nose Job", People.com, December 3, 2007.</ref>
