Venus Williams
I was a teenager with braces and into sporty dresses with bright colors and cut-outs. For awhile, I really experimented with what I wanted to do. Some really extreme things, I recall.
Stone Cold Steve Austin
Don’t look forward to me putting on the trunks and knee braces to get back in the ring and stomp a mudhole in somebody and walking it dry.
Shirley Ballas
For years Corky was what I call a jokester. He’d tease me with things like, ‘You’ve got breasts like two currants on a breadboard’ or ‘You’ve got a sunken chest like a pirate’s something or other.’ He didn’t like my teeth until I got braces at 25. It’s like a little pickaxe that goes, chip, chip, chip, until, in the end, you think you are ugly.

River Viiperi

Rasheed Wallace
Two of my bread and butters are my ankle and knee. That’s why I always wore high-tops. I had to protect my ankles no matter if I taped my ankles or wore ankle braces. I gotta protect my ankles. Gotta protect the money maker. That’s why I’ve always rocked the Air Force 1s. Of course, I put in orthotics in there ’cause these joints is flat.

All I wanted was attention from girls when I was a kid. Then I got my braces off, and then there was too much attention, and I was also mad that they didn’t pay attention to me in the first place. Then I was just like, I couldn’t put on blinders and focus on one because there were too many options.
Lauren Graham
For a time in high school, I had glasses, braces, and a cast. I like to call this look ‘no date for homecoming.’
