I decided to refer to a blog spot that speaks about the
topic of butt augmentation in
the Black community. The blog is named Madame Noire
and, was written by Charing Ball on
December 9th/2013. She talks about the popular stripper turned actress of a popular show called Love and Hip Hop New York. LHHNY Cast member Nya Lee opened up about getting
butt injections, and why she doesn’t encourage other women to do so. Lee admits to paying $1,200
for a non FDA approved butt injections in hopes of creating a larger and rounder behind. She explains
that the procedure was done four years ago, in her friend’s house by an un-licensed technician.
The
technician claimed that she was using a medical grade bio gel, but Lee admitted to not being able to verify
that claim. Despite being content with the
outcome; the actress acknowledges that she put herself in
danger and, that she wouldn't advise young
women to seek out butt injections, which are illegal and
proven to be deadly.
The blog proceeds
to share how much they appreciate Lee’s honesty. She ( Lee) goes into the idea of
African American women having large buttocks by saying “
Hey, not every black girl has a big butt, but
when you ask around, it seems that a big behind is the
epitome of beauty for African American Women
and, if you don’t have one, you better figure something out”.
The writer begins to give a list of songs
that promote and praise the idea of African American women
having a large buttocks, and then ends
the list by saying “ one thing for sure, it ain’t her pretty
brown eyes anymore”. This line refers to the old
90’s hit named Pretty Brown Eyes sung by the group Mint
Condition. It also shows how music has
changed from talking about an African American’s facial
features, to now focusing on their assets behind
them.
To read more about Nya Lee's story, you can read the rest of Madame Noire's blog:
She also posted a of video of her getting the procedure done. She wanted to share with everyone that she is comfortable with letting people know that she has a fake buttocks.
Clink on the link below to see her procedure. If you have a weak stomach or don't feel comfortable watching someone receive surgery, then I wouldn't recommend for you to watch this.
How do you feel about her decision to receive injections? Do you appreciate her honesty?

This is wild. I don't get how she wouldn't advise anyone to participate in this potentially DEADLY procedure yet, she's still happy with the results... Not really sure how to take this, is she warning viewers/readers not do try this at home.. or actually encouraging them to take the risk??
ReplyDeleteI feel like she is doing both. She is warning people to not do this surgery because of the potential risks, but she is contradicting herself because she is saying she is happy with her results, and the success that came after she received that surgery can relate to her butt enhancement surgery ( ex: stripper photo above).
