Sandie Shaw Has Foot Surgery!

Sandie Shaw – the sixties singer famous for performing barefoot – has had corrective surgery done on her feet because she deemed them ugly.

Amazingly, the 60-year-old – real name Sandra Ann Goodrich - will be left immobile by the surgery for a further two months having gone under the scalpel on July 16. Speaking on her official website, Shaw admitted that the move was very “ironic.”

Speaking about the aftermath of the surgery, she continued: "When I was discharged from hospital I was issued with a pair of huge geisha-style shoes.”

She added that she had to wear “condom-like rubber leg tubes” to use in the shower and has to use a wheelchair to get around.

Describing what her feet looked like when the bandages were removed, she said she had "swollen, misshapen, yellow and bruised appendages on the ends of my legs."

Shaw won the Eurovision Song Contest for Great Britain in 1967 with her song ‘Puppet on a String.’
