LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Heidi Montag wears nose tape because she is worried that her nose will fall off. Heidi Montag tells news today that she lives in fear that he nose will fall off her face or even move, day to day.

“I don’t want my face to fall off like Michael Jackson’s.”

Montag says she has to wear the tape 24 hours a day. She claims that only this week did nosy news find out about her nose tape. “The tape is supposed to keep the swelling down and hold my nose in place the way Dr. Ryan sculpted it. Dr. Ryan always said I was his best, most cautious patient, and I’m not taking any chances now that he’s gone” she tells Life and Style.

Montag tells the magazine that she has not had more rhinoplasty. 2009 was the second time Montag had her nose fixed in two years. She claims that if she doesn’t wear tape her nose will move. “The last time I didn’t wear tape after surgery and my nose changed shape”.

Montag has been in Costa Rica with Spencer Pratt heating up news about reports of a tape deal. But in May,  Montag claimed an end professionally for Speidi as a business team. “We are no longer Speidi but Spencer and Heidi”. “The time for change is now. Never mix business and pleasure. We are no longer Speidi but Spencer and Heidi.”
