WHAT'S happened to Renée Zellweger? The 44-year-old actor hit the red carpet at an Armani event in New York last week sporting a dramatically different look. Zellweger is almost unrecognisable compared to her days in Bridget Jones, with several gossip websites suggesting the star may have had plastic surgery around her eyes. The Jerry Maguire star has been very quiet on the movie scene over the past few years. Her last film, My Own Love Song, went straight to DVD in 2010.
