LIL KIM - The Sad Truth About Her Plastic Surgery, Toxic Relationships & Insecurities | Reaction

[@dlbarnes]

Dysmorphia is problematic for individuals who are self-conscious about their image, but she is suffering from the impact of colorism.

[@Adiossean]

Yup. Ion think people realize how Colorism has affected the black community. I know so many older women who messed up they hair and different parts of the body trying to look like someone else because they got gold they skin ain’t good enough

My thing is. As her doctor. Wouldn't he alert the authorities? You're coming in with a broken nose constantly and he doesn't ask any questions? That does seem like a reach. I feel for her though because she was so beautiful and men has destroyed her confidence. She keeps getting lumped in with terrible men. I'm not a fan of hers but I do pray she finds a man that sees her worth so she can start properly healing.

Kim is such a sweetheart. I hate how certain fan bases speak so poorly on her and try to erase her impact. Lil Kim is one of the blueprints of rap. That’s not an opinion. That’s facts. A lot of men in her life made Kim think she wasn’t pretty because of her skin complexion. One of her exs broke her nose and she had to get surgery on her nose. I love Kim no matter how she looks.

I wrote a comment about saying that she had the bars (lyrics, even if they're good). I got called out for that. Please correct me.

I honestly think it STARTED due to her boyfriends breaking her nose and she may have found that as a out to go ahead and do more work to her body. Like you said she was told from a young age that her looks or she wasn't cute enough. I know women who have had plastic surgery and they aren't satisfied....Its called Body dysmorphic disorder. Its a REAL THING!!! ALSO the industry and people in general judge men and women much differently.

[@livelovely4681]

She said after getting beat that it also messed with her self esteem and that's why she changed her face. You didn't hear it though.

[@cody3977]

The nose thing is true, her ex broke her nose several times, at least one right after a nose job which is extremely dangerous and almost impossible to fix. As for the other stuff, abuse and bullying results in body dysmorphia and self esteem issues sometimes. And now you have people hating on her for her looks after surgery. It’s cruel, mfs need to put respect on her name.

[@laeyla-rd5sy]

Nicki used to embrace being unique & not giving a fxck about boxes she’d get put into but then after 2014.. she seemed to care a lot and overdo the s*xy aesthetic in her music etc. :/ Hopefully she takes notes from her past albums T.T i rlly don’t want her to go downhill- ESPECIALLY when she is such a talented woman.

[@leonardoperez-lopez7963]

I have to respectfully disagree. Why do people always down Black women bodies? As you age, that means you can no longer be sexy? For example, look at JLO (age 53), Shakira (age 45), Madonna (age 64) all past their 40s and yet are praised for their sex appeal and looking young. Non-Black people are allowed to do so many things and when a Black woman does it, it's "Oh they're too old, they need to cover up, they need to.." blah blah. There's an audience for everyone. Nicki and Kim can be in their 60s and continue doing what they doing. If people do not like that then support other Black women who present differently. Let's stop removing Black women's autonomy.

[@BruceLigno]

You're missing a lot of key details on why this argument does not hold up. - We are talking about Black people AS Black people. Ofc we're only criticizing them. - Madonna gets dragged left and right for her still trying to be sexy. Look up 50 Cent and Madonna and you will see that it was relatively recent. - None of these women are rappers and Shakira and J-Lo are not explicit on how they show off sex appeal. Also, Shakira and J-Lo (to an extent) show that they can dance outside of shaking butt. They are different skills than just showing off their body, which is heavily shown during the Superbowl 2020 they did. - It's not about taking Black sexiness away, it's about doing it more tastefully, and not resorting to it and being so vulgar, which the women discussed in the video did *VERY* often.

[@gzsworld1508]

That is not the point to discredit black women from being sexy at any age, but to be sexy in a non vulgar way. Take Nicki Minaj for example at the age she is now trying to shake her butt and spread her legs, it’s not sexy but that is doing to much for being an older age, she can be sexy but classy, and it’s not just black women when Madonna goes out and tries to shake her butt it’s not sexy either because of her age she can show a little cleavage if she wants but shaking her butt and spreading her legs on stage at her age is not sexy it’s disturbing and embarrassing

[@erenyeager2517]

Shakira does belly dance a old culture dance ., a dance that Ancient Egypt and Arab used to doo that why shes respected madonna gets dragged Everywhereeeee for trying to be sexy

[@tomboyinrecovery]

No offense to Nicki cuz I love her but i feel everyone knows she wss never a dancer nor a twerker fr she’s a Trini woman that loves to whine her waist occasionally but she’s really at her best when she dominates the stage like the male rappers cuz she has stage presence within her, hell rollin around on stage simply doesn’t look good and she herself knows she ain’t got mobility/flexibility like back in the 2010’s, she looks great walkin back and forth rappin

Whats more sad is the lack of awareness about why her surgeries started. I grew up watching her cime in the scene. I remember the interview ms about her father beating her a ms a toddler and criticizing her appearance and everything about her. Thinking she wasnt pretty enough because Biggie chose faith over her. Her first surgery was her nose after a boyfriend shattered it and continued to do so and it never had a chance to heal. She kept going back because she had no self value. Same boyfriend continued to beat her so bad it affected her face and eventually she started wiping out the marks with surgery while also thinking if she was prettier hed stop. Yes, a surgeon should have sooke up, maybe they did, but at the end of the day the initial surgeons were simply doing their best to heal a beaten and damaged face. This includes shifts in her jaw (hence loss jaw line).

[@donatasvelicka5370]

Nicki is almost 40 but she still looks sexy and hot, so imo she doesn't look cringy AND she still has a lot of talent, more than anybody else musicaly for sure in female rap and maybe even rap wise in general. What will make her memorable is not only her body but her versatility in music, the adaptability to the newer sounds and the lyrics which you can literally apply in real life as sayings. Meanwhile kim compared to nicki doesn't look that attractive and in addition to the poor money investment management these are the reasons why nobody really cares for kim. Not to mention the fact that she is lightenning her skin till this day and being in jail which stopped her career from staying alive longer.

[@kevoo_x]

literally watch her old performances and compare them to the recent ones. MAJOR decline in stage presence and the way she move, obviously because of the weight gain (no offence) but also because of the aging. its just too cringe and she's trying too hard. rolling on the ground, out of breathe, saying "HEY" every second, not finishing the lyrics.. be forreal.

The fact you said rap wise in general just shows you dont listen to much rap. There’s a female rapper named Sa-Roc that how has more lyrical depth than Nicki ever did

[@mariavm3574]

So... Sexy is just for young women? For perfect women? Is what you are saying? Of course, nobody should base his/her identity in how they looks... but feeling sexy and sex is not forbidden for mature women. You "see" cringe a woman who feels sexy being older. I see cringe people who consider themselves entitled to decide whether or not should anyone feels sexy. Because, no matter of my age, my weigh, my sexual orientation, my race or my look, I'm free to feel sexy. No need to be perfect to feel sexy. And that's something that many young men/women haven't achieved and won't achieve. They wont never get there. We often say people have a problem with their age, but the truth is that we have a problem with them feeling young, happy and beautiful being mature when we aren't capable of doing so being so "young and perfect". This is valid for any "not normative" person. I'm not ashamed of myself, if you feel uncomfortable around me, is your problem. Not mine. This is worst in older people, that can't stand someone of their own age feeling attractive just because they don't stand looking at themselves in the mirror. So... the answer is clear: "look into your self, my friend. Look into yourself...."
