What is the meaning of this?

Hi Everyone,

Well, again I have come across some expressions which you may like to learn. Take a guess and when I get some replies, I will post the correct answers.

1) "Douglas (actor) denies nipping,tucking
Nipping, tucking means ?
2) "Kutcher (actor) disses Keanu" (Keanu is Keanu Reaves, actor)
Disses means ?
3) The walls have ears
Whole expression means ?

Ok, everyone, what do you think any or all of them mean? Give it a shot. If you get them all, you'll be batting 1,000 and you'll feel like a million bucks. As a matter of fact, you'll be walking on air! However, even if you get them all wrong, there's no need to be down in the dumps since you tried. Good luck. Bye,bye Mark

Hi Penny,

Well, I have waited long enough for other comments. I want to say CONGRATULATIONS! You got two of the three exactly right! Wonderful!
Now, here is a hint about "Nip/Tuck."
Many older people, and Hollywood movie stars, will consider having this done. Does this hint help you? Bye,bye Penny. Mark

Hi Grace,

Concered with the words,"nip/tuck", which refers to someone having a plastic surgery, I would like to how to use these two words in a sentence? Are they verbs? And since these two words have something to do with the plastic surgery, which part does a person want to "ADJUST" himself if he wants to nip or tuck?? :)
