Botched Clip: Woman Got 13 Procedures in 1 Year to Look Like Ivanka Trump
Botched is honestly an amazing program. It"s usually either a story about a deranged doctor or a patient who has some serious issues (Remember the guy whose nose could come off?). But sometimes there are problems that no surgeon can fix.
Sometimes, though, people have issues extending far beyond whatever drives them to get inadvisable cosmetic procedures, and beyond whatever went wrong with those procedures.
Like this woman in the video below, named Tiffany, whose obsession with Donald Trump and his family led her to get 13 surgeries in a single year to look like Trump"s ideal woman: Ivanka.
Well, in an attempt to look like her.
You would never mistake one for the other.
The woman"s name is Tiffany, and it is very difficult to imagine someone mistaking her for Ivanka Trump.
Tiffany says that she has had thirteen procedures during the past year in an effort to forge herself into the First Daughter.
Excuse us — in an effort to architect herself into the First Daughter.
That"s the way that the real Ivanka talks.
As you"ll see in the clip below, the doctors are super alarmed to hear about this.
Tiffany does explain that she was only put under three times (she illustrates this by holding up three fingers, which is weird and we"ll talk about that in a moment).
The doctors discuss how it"s possible to have multiple small procedures during one session of general anesthesia, which is clearly what Tiffany has done.
They ask what brought this on, and she mentions that she started getting the surgeries about four months after her ten year marriage ended.
As the doctors explain, it"s not uncommon for people to have what are essentially rebound surgeries, though they don"t quite phrase it that way.
We think that this woman has more issues than just getting over her marriage, though.
Tiffany says that she is completely "committed" to looking like Ivanka Trump, though they don"t discuss that in the video.
With technology where it is now, that is just not a realistic expectation.
Just a reminder, folks, this is what the real Ivanka looks like:
It"s funny that this woman"s name is Tiffany, because Trump actually has another daughter who is named Tiffany.
If you forgot, don"t worry — Trump forgets, too.
By the way, this woman"s issues clearly go beyond cosmetic procedures and also well beyond her adoration for Trump.
In this super cutesy way, she holds up three fingers — like a child or maybe a girl from an anime.
Her mannerisms and the way that she very deliberately blinks to look "cute" speaks to some serious maturity issues.
This woman was married for a decade.
We don"t know Tiffany"s age but, even if she got married in high school, she"s at least old enough now to rent a car (25 years old, folks).
She"s probably well into her thirties.
This is not … becoming on her.
To be clear, not everyone who"s a fan of Trump is as completely whackadoodle as this woman.
Similarly, not everyone who supports Trump is a Nazi or white nationalist like those who rallied in Charlottesville over the weekend.
Admittedly, Trump"s remaining supporters are willing to overlook a great deal of racism and sexism and inconsistent messaging and a whole host of other things that horrify most of the country, but that"s another story.
And, hey, at least Steve Bannon"s been booted from the White House.
That probably won"t change anything significantly, but let"s enjoy that nice feeling until the next disaster strikes.
But, though this footage was surely captured months ago, Tiffany is probably still 100% on Trump"s side.
In this video, you"ll see those strikingly immature mannerisms that we talked about.
Her style seems like something that someone would wear as a Halloween costume to portray Ivanka, but it doesn"t feel like what Ivanka would have worn if she"d been going on Botched for whatever reason.
(Maybe to get a chin since her father deprived her and her siblings of one — sorry)
But let"s not talk to Tiffany about Ivanka"s feature or she might try to get more procedures after she gets whatever she wanted fixed, fixed.

Human Ken Doll"s Nose Could FALL OFF on Botched!
Rodrigo Alves has undergone 51 cosmetic procedures and earned the nickname "The Human Ken Doll."
Whatever you might think of his personal choices, we can agree that Alves didn"t undergo all of these surgeries to come out looking like Lord Voldemort.
Unfortunately, as he learns in this appearance on Botched, that might end up being the case. Because his nose could atrophy and literally fall off of his face. Watch the video below!
Okay, so Rodrigo Alves is a British television personality.
He"s also probably exactly the sort of person who qualifies as a plastic surgery addict.
Like, we"re no experts, but … seriously.
That"s 51 elective procedures.
And apparently the last two procedures on his nose were so close together that they did some damage.
While Alves laments that his last rhinoplasty"s results were "perfect," it sounds like there was a serious complication.
And that"s why he"s on Botched.
Look, by its nature, Botched is full of horror stories.
That"s the show where we heard of Mama June"s terrible C-Section mishap.
There was a trans woman whose surgeon gave her unmanageably large breasts that she didn"t ask for.
Worst of all, one time Farrah Abraham was on Botched.
That memory still keeps us up at night.
But … we"re talking about a man"s nose turning black with atrophy and falling off like he"s a cartoon character.
The image is grotesque, but the risk sounds real.
When somebody"s face might pull a Sphinx if they make one more mistake with it, it"s not time to mince words.
"The issue is what we call the soft tissue envelope — that"s the skin," Dr. Nassif explains to a very worried Alves.
"So, by you having three surgeries within a period of 12-15 months, destroyed your tissue — the skin"s no good."
Just the thought of us makes our noses hurt in sympathy.
Up to a point.
Meanwhile, Alves himself notes that his friends never had problems but that he"s unlucky, so he keeps asking "why me."
Like … we know that the situation sucks, but maybe there are little kids floating on makeshift rafts to escape their war-torn homelands whose "why me?" questions carry a little more weight.
We"re not going to dive into deep theological questions of why bad things happen.
But we"re guessing that maybe Alves" friends spaced their surgeries out a little more.
"Your nose, on the inside … you have no airway," Dr. Nassif continues in the tone of carefully explaining to a student why their failure to show up to an exam resulted in such a bad final grade.
"And it"s short, so this is all scarred together."
Big yikes.
"And now, since you just had surgery three months ago, it"s going to scary again more. It"s in a healing phase."
Alves seems like he wants to protest, but the doctor keeps going.
"If you try to [do another procedure on] your skin now, while it"s healing, there"s a high possibility, that if you let one of these doctors touch your nose now, this will turn black and then die and fall off."
It"s pretty clear that the doctors, both Terry Dubrow and Paul Nassif, are spelling it out for him to make sure that he gets it.
And they"re using dramatic language to do it, in almost a scared straight sort of effort.
But it sounds like it"s working.
It sure scared the crap out of us.
We hope that they can fix his nose, somehow.
At the very least, we hope that Alves will listen to the good doctors.
If not, he might end up playing the worst game of "got-your-nose" in world history.
Watch the video to see their exchange — and his nose — for yourself. The photos can"t do it justice.

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton: Broken Up After Botched Proposal?!
It’s kind of hard to believe that Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton have lasted this long, isn’t it?
They began dating in 2015, very quickly after their respective divorces from Gavin Rossdale and Miranda Lambert, and they’re remarkably different people.
Like, Gwen Stefani is Gwen Stefani, and Blake Shelton has deer tracks tattooed on his arm. They might as well be from different planets.
But still, despite the odds, Gwake has managed to survive for over a year and a half now.
Unfortunately, it looks like it could all be over now.
According to a new report from Life & Style, NBC executives were pushing Gwen and Blake “to act very affectionate and playful with each other” during the most recent season of The Voice.
In fact, they “really wanted an on-screen proposal,” but the season finale aired earlier this week, and obviously the proposal never happened.
And that’s because, in real life, the couple is “miserable.”
A source claims that Gwen “wants the world to think everything is perfect with Blake. But that’s just not the case anymore.”
“Gwen and Blake began to argue more. Then she started to realize they’re just too different to spend the rest of their lives together.”
They’re allegedly so close to a breakup that Gavin Rossdale is beginning to worry for the sake of the three children he shares with Gwen.
“Gavin is a very concerned parent and wants to be sure Gwen and Blake aren’t arguing in front of the boys,” the source explains.
“And he has concerns how the boys would handle a breakup.”
So this is all pretty sad, right?
It would totally make sense if Blake didn’t want to propose on The Voice, or if Gwen wouldn’t be down with it.
After all, they’ve always been somewhat private about their relationship, and we can’t see them enjoying something as gimmicky as an on-screen proposal.
But if the reason for the proposal not happening isn’t how lame it would be, if it’s actually because they really are having all these issues …
No one is prepared for that kind of sadness.
Remember when the news first broke that Gwen had filed for divorce from Gavin? She was absolutely heartbroken.
She’d been with him for several years, and she’d only had a couple of boyfriends before him … Blake is one of very, very few men to get so close to her, and losing him would be devastating for her.
We’re not ready to witness sad Gwen Stefani again. We simply cannot go through it.
So come on, kids. Work it out.
