Heidi Montag has come out saying that her own mother looked at her like she was a “circus freak” when she returned home to Crested Butte, Colorado with her new looks. Montag recently underwent 10 cosmetic surgeries in one day.

The reality TV star says that she doesn’t regret any of the procedures but has spoken out about her mother’s negative reaction. Montag told People Magazine “I was nervous, but also excited? I never thought in my wildest dreams she was going to react the way she did. She was looking at me almost like a zoo animal. It wasn’t like I was her daughter anymore. She was looking at me like I was a circus freak.”

Montag, who recently released her first album, continued by saying: “I think she was most upset that Spencer [Pratt] was there for me and she wasn’t. She was saying how sad it is that my confidence is gone because of the music industry I’m trying to get into. I wanted to be the most beautiful, inside and out. It’s part of being a star.”

Former BFF and “The Hills” star Lauren Conrad was asked on “Good Morning America” her thoughts about the new Heidi, to which she simply said “It’s a look… I think it’s a personal choice,” she said. “Everybody’s different. … Everybody needs to do what’s good for them.”
