Octavia Spencer

Octavia Spencer, Octavia Spencer is planning to splash out on a couple of new assets after the Oscars – a b**b job. The Help star, who is the frontrunner to win best supporting actress at the star-studded ceremony on February 26, is planning a little present to herself following her success at the Golden Globes and the Baftas.

“Well, I am going to get my b**bs lifted. That’s going to be my first gift. I’m going to do that,” the 39-year-old told Parade.com.

“I figured going into my forties I want my b**bs where they were when I was 17.”

However, Octavia – who faces Berenice Bejo, Jessica Chastain, Melissa McCarthy and Janet McAteer for the Oscar statuette – admitted it might be a while before she goes under the knife.

“Definitely post because right after the Oscars I start a Diablo Cody movie. We’re taping out of the country for four months so I wouldn’t be back here until about August,” she continued.
