Jenelle Evans: New Plastic Surgery Revealed?!
Jenelle Evans … well, the girl has her issues, that"s for sure.
But whether you love her or hate her, there"s no denying that she"s always been cute.
Sure, she makes terrible parenting choices more often than not, and yeah, she"s been violent and irrational and just plain awful.
She"s been arrested practically a billion times, she consistently chooses men over her kids, she"s been cruel to her mother, Barbara, even though she"s been raising her son since he was born.
… But she"s cute!
Things might be changing though, because we may just have seen proof that she"s gotten some plastic surgery.
Buckle up, because this is going to get wild.
1. We See You, Girl!
So this is Jenelle’s face as we have known it in recent years.
2. Looking Good!
It is a fine face.
3. Rude
Some haters like to criticize her appearance, saying she’s unattractive or that certain features of hers are bad, that kind of mean thing.
4. Come On Now
But really, that’s just uncalled for. There are plenty of things to criticize about Jenelle without going after her appearance.
5. Honestly …
Like, everything she’s ever done.
6. Awww 🙁
But still, people can be cruel, and people can also be self conscious, and for one or both of those reasons, our girl here has done a few things to alter her looks over the years.

Jenelle Evans: "Unrecognizable" After Latest Plastic Surgery?!
Jenelle Evans has been in rare form lately, folks.
Actually, at this point, she"s been behaving so erratically for so long that there"s really nothing rare about it.
Fresh off the controversy over her decision not to evacuate for Hurricane Florence, Jenelle finds herself in the eye of another storm.
This time, it"s a mini-scandal surrounding her ever-changing appearance, and it"s yet another reminder of the extent to which the mother of three has gone off the deep end …
1. The New Jenelle
Jenelle posted this photo to Instagram recently, and fans were quick to call her out for her latest cosmetic procedure.
2. "So Plastic!"
That was the remark made by one of Jenelle’s followers that touched off a heated debate in the comments section.
3. The Big Question
Some fans didn’t believe Jenelle had gotten any work done, and to be fair, her latest alteration is pretty subtle.
4. It’s All in the Lips
“Lay off the lip injections,” one fan wrote. On Facebook and Reddit, fans posted photos which they claimed showed that Jenelle’s fondness for lip injections was taking its toll.
5. She Looks Fine to Us!
Critics of Jenelle’s appearance have pointed to this screenshot from Teen Mom 2 as evidence that her frequent cosmetic procedures are having an undesirable effect.
6. Everyone’s a Critic
These people say the constant change in the size of Jenelle’s lips has created a “deflated” look around her mouth. And naturally, their criticism doesn’t end there …

Briana DeJesus: My OTHER Daughter Also Needs Surgery
Think whatever you want about Briana DeJesus as a Teen Mom 2 cast member.
Take the side of Javi Marroquin or Kailyn Lowry and think she is nothing but trouble, if you desire.
As a parent, however, Briana DeJesus has had it very rough of late. This cannot really be debated.
Below, we document how the MTV personality had to recently watch one daughter undergo surgery… and how she"ll soon need to watch the other one go under the knife as well.
We wish her and her kids the best…
1. Poor Stella
In mid-August, DeJesus shared this photo with followers and said little Stella had just undergone a procedure.
2. Did She Come Out of It Okay?
Yes, although any sort of surgery is scary for an infant of course. “Stressful stressful day but Stella is resting and that’s all that matters,” wrote Briana as an update.
3. What Was the Matter?
“She [had] septic arthritis,” DeJesus told Radar Online of Stella’s joint infection. “It’s common in kids.” (According to Wikipedia, septic arthritis is the invasion of a joint by an infectious agent resulting in joint inflammation.)
4. How is Stella Doing Now?
Pretty well, it seems. No complications. No follow-ups needed in the last few weeks.
5. But What About Nova?
The almost-seven-year old was born to Briana in 2011. Her father is Devoin Austin, who is occasionally in the picture — and DeJesus has now revealed that Nova needs surgery of her own.
6. This is What Briana Tweeted on the Subject
“Nova has surgery on Friday and her bday is on Sunday and I just feel sooo bad.” Darn. We feel bad, too.

Paola Mayfield FINALLY Answers Those Plastic Surgery Questions!
90 Day Fiance fans are still rejoicing at the news that Paola Mayfield and Russ Mayfield are expecting their first child. But that doesn’t mean that they don’t still have questions on other topics.
Paola is a fitness model, and a lot of people want to know about what work she’s had done on her face and body.
Now, Pao is addressing those plastic surgery questions that fans have been asking — and she’s answering all of them.
Paola shared a new glimpse at her ever-growing baby bump and answered some questions in the captions.
“Hi loves,” Pao’s post begins. “Some people have asked me if I have done something to my face.”
That’s a rude question, right?
Paola says that they keep asking “since I look so different since I got to the USA.”
“And,” Paola replies honestly. “The answer is yes and no.”
Like so many answers, hers is a little complicated.
Paola then begins her list of areas where she has and has not had work done.
“Lips?” she writes. “I fixed only one side of my upper lip that was uneven.”
Hey, all of our meatsuits are purely luck-of-the-draw. There’s no shame in getting yours touched up.
Paola then explains: “My lips look big or small depending on how hydrated I am!”
“So,” she continues. “I need to drink a lot of water for them to look juicy.”
That’s a free beauty tip right there.
“Botox?” Paola continues. “Nope, and I’m really scared of getting into that world.”
Botox of course uses a potentially deadly toxic to change a person’s looks. Many people worry about the long-term effects that it could have, particularly upon the liver.
“If I want it to look younger or to change the shape of my face I will do it,” Paola promises. “But for now I’m good with this face.”
(She should be!)
“I think I have accomplished so much with this face,” Pao writes. “That I’m keeping it!”
“I’m not against it,” she says, referring to changing one’s face. “And probably one day I will try it and I will definitely make a Vlog about it!”
Now Paola gets to the good stuff.
“My Boobs?” Pao says. “I did my boobs way before I came to the USA.”
She then goes on to share that she’s kind of regretting that now.
“And,” she continues. “I regret it as I have big boobs before and now that I’m pregnant my genetics are popping out more.”
“My Butt?” Paola writes. “That is one 100% hard work, dedication, and genetics!”
Good for her for reminding her fans that a huge part of anyone’s looks, including body shape, is always going to be genetics.
In addition to clarifying where she has and has not received a little medical assistance in her looks, she also addresses what technological resources she has or has not used to make her photos even better.
“Face-tune or photoshop?” she writes. “Nope.”
Paola credits any changes to her face to “the magic of makeup and contouring.”
She is absolutely right — it does seem like magic. And to people who don’t understand how makeup and contouring work, it can seem like the person’s face is totally transformed. It really is an art form.
Paola wishes her fans and followers well, signing off by writing: “Have a wonderful and beautiful day!”

Briana DeJesus Opens Up About Daughter"s Recent Surgery
For the past few weeks, we’ve been writing a lot about Briana DeJesus and the fight she got into with Kailyn Lowry at the recent Teen Mom 2 reunion.
But this article is about something very different.
It’s about the fight Briana’s daughter appears to be in for her life.
The MTV personality opened up a little bit on Thursday about her one-year old daughter, Stella, having to undergo surgery.
“My poor little baby,” DeJesus wrote along with a frowny face, later responding to inquiries from followers and adding:
“Stressful stressful day but Stella is resting and that’s all that matters.”
Briana also shared a few photos (below) of her precious toddler before and after she went under the knife.
“It’s been a hectic day for me but she’s ok. She’s out of surgery,” Briana continued at one point, telling a concerned supporter:
“Will [have] a bigger update to everyone once I have her in my arms!”
Briana did not reveal in these social media messages exactly what problem Stella is facing and/or why she needed surgery at this time.
Back in September, however, DeJesus spoke to Radar Online about at least one health issue her daughter was very unfortunately born with.
“It’s been so hard dealing with Stella,” she said at the time. “She has some heart condition, she has holes in her heart. It’s been difficult dealing with Stella right now.
“We just have to monitor her breathing.”
In this instance, though, it sounds like something else was the matter with young Stella.
“She has septic arthritis,” DeJesus told Radar of Stella’s joint infection. “It’s common in kids.”
According to Wikipedia, septic arthritis is the invasion of a joint by an infectious agent resulting in joint inflammation.
Symptoms often include redness, heat and pain in a single joint associated with a decreased ability to move the joint.
Briana also tells Radar that the infection is now under control, thanks to this new procedure, but it “could always come back.”
Elsewhere, DeJesus told Us Weekly that Stella had a fever of 104 degrees and, even after it stabilized, the infant had trouble “moving her left arm.”
A subsequent MRI revealed that Stella had fluid in her joints.
Briana was accompanied by her mother, Roxanne, at the hospital while waiting for the surgery to end.
(Stella’s father, Luis Hernandez was in New York City for the procedure. The couple split before Stella was born and he is not very involved in her life.)
But while Stella is now a healthy little girl again, “she could have possibly died,” DeJesus tells the tabloid, concluding with a message to all other mothers and fathers around the world:
I would tell parents to pay close attention and if something doesn’t look right, take your babies to get checked. I’m glad I did and that my baby is home, safe and recovering.
The reality TV star is also mom of Nova, 6, who she shares with former boyfriend Devoin Austin.

Jenelle Evans Denies Plastic Surgery ... Well Except For Two Huge Things
Jenelle Evans of Teen Mom 2 fame is subject to many wild rumors and intense speculation, from her romantic relationships to her looks.
Obviously, she’s not the most reliable narrator of her own life story, as her relationship with the truth is about as stable as Sarah Sanders’.
When it comes to plastic surgery she’s undergone, however, the Carolina Hurricane will cop to it … and deny it at the same time.
Two days ago, Jenelle posted the above photo with her daughter, Ensley, wearing matching swimsuits by Evans’ pool with no fence.
Jenelle’s swimsuit, a form-fitting, low-cut one-piece that would make Jessa Duggar swimsuit fans, reads simply “Mama.”
Ensley’s matching swimsuit, naturally, has “Got it From My Mama” emblazoned on it. So sweet and clever, right? Well …
Enter the Instagram peanut gallery:
“Not to be rude,” one commenter writes, knowing damn well they are about to be very rude, “but mama got it from plastic surgery.”
Oooh. Good one, random Jenelle “fan.”
Never one to back down from a fight, whether she’s beating up Brittany or sparring with Tori, Jenelle clapped back with this response:
“Only boobs sweetheart” *kiss emoji*
Well, there you have it, people.
They are not real by any stretch of the imagination, but they are still spectacular … at least according to her husband, David Eason.
Many Evans supporters praised her for keeping it real and keeping the shade to a minimum, but others weren’t as convinced.
Jenelle was trolled on her page over everything from her lip fillers to her alleged photoshopping of her baby bump, er, her stomach.
See above.
In this photo David shared last week, an unretouched Jenelle clearly shows the affect of all those pregnancies on her stomach.
Which is FINE. She looks great. That pose is super awkward, suggestive and may scar us for life, but we’re NOT dissing her weight.
It’s this photo (above) that’s causing controversy, however, when juxtaposed with the previous Cinemax-ready, leg-spreading effort.
As you can see, and are familiar with if you know Jenelle, this is a sponsored Instagram post for that detox tea she shills for.
Take a closer look and you’ll see why the general consensus is that she Photoshopped the ever-loving crap out of this image.
“Your photoshopped photo doesn’t make you look very good,” one fan commented, echoing the sentiments of many others.
“Omg that photoshopping is horrendous,” said another, piling on criticism. “Even your leggings look screwed up like a skirt.”
“Is there anything you can do right?”
Well, that’s just plain harsh right there.
Just the same, fans offered to lend a hand to her editing skills, picking apart exactly how bad the latest tea-shilling post is.
Specifically, one Evans Instagram aficionado pointed out that “where her tummy is you can see that wood line bending.”
Rough. But not enough to keep her down!
Despite the drama of this spring and summer, “Jenelle will likely begin shooting this week,” according to The Ashley’s Reality Roundup.
That’s right, she’ll be returning to Teen Mom 2, despite MTV firing David Eason, Barbara Evans’ claims that he beats her, etc.
It’s been a crazy summer, even for her.
“They are going to film Jenelle with Barbara [Evans] and do a basic catch-up on what’s been happening in Jenelle’s life,” an insider added.
That “basic” catch-up could take weeks.

Farrah Abraham Undergoes Cosmetic Surgery ... Inspired By Kylie Jenner?!
If you were worried that motherhood would slow down Kylie Jenner’s career, fear not.
The 20-year-old is crushing it harder than ever these days.
Kylie covers the new issue of Forbes thanks to her wildly popular cosmetics line, which the magazine estimates wilkl soon be worth more than $ 1 billion.
Of course, Kylie’s brand is based largely on her look, and it seems that in the style department, Stormi’s mom is still setting teends without even trying.
As you may have heard, Kylie got her lip fillers removed recently, and apparently big lips are not officially “out” as a result.
(We didn’t know facial features could be “in” or “out,” but we guess that’s a testament to Kylie’s power.)
Most of the people who emulate Kylie’s style are young (like, can’t but booze yet young) and highly impressionable … but some folks think 27-year-old Farrah is also taking her cues from the cosmetics queen:
Yes, that’s video of Farrah getting her lip filler remove.
Many were quick to assume that Farrah was jumping on the Kylie-driven small lip bandwagon, but she claims that’s not the case.
“June 14th: Get your lip filler out the right way for more see,” Farrah captioned the above video on Instagram.
Yes, Farrah was careful to point out that she had her procedure done before the world learned that Kylie had reverted to her natural lips.
And she claims she got zapped with the “golden vibrator” for medical reasons, not cosmetic ones:
“Some filler migrated above my lip and I didn’t look like myself,” Farrah tells Radar Online.
“I did not want to keep waiting for it to dissolve, so Dr. Nazarian dissolved it for me.”
But that doesn’t mean that Kylie doesn’t play a role in all of this.
After all, Farrah waited almost a month to post this video, and she encourages her followers to have their lip fillers removed “the right way.”
We’re guessing she was paid by the doc to post this video.
Furthermore, we’re guessing this piece of sponsored content was inspired by one very young soon-to-be-billionaire.
Kylizzle is freakin’ everywhere these days.
Kailyn Lowry: New Plastic Surgery Plans Revealed!
Kailyn Lowry is no stranger to plastic surgery.
Over the years, she"s had a good few procedures — some fat rearranged, some needles here and there, you know how it goes.
But after she canceled a scheduled boob job earlier this year, we assumed she was done.
We assumed wrong.
During this week"s episode of her podcast, Kailyn revealed that she"s actually got plans for at least one more surgery.
And you sincerely will not believe what it is.
1. Oh Hey, Girl
If you keep up with all these Teen Mom shenanigans, or really even if you’ve ever just seen a picture of Kailyn before, then you know the girl is busty.
2. For Real
Like, VERY busty.
3. A Transformation
Things weren’t always that way — here’s a hilarious old picture of Kailyn on vacation in Myrtle Beach with Jenelle and Leah. You know it’s old because there’s no way Kail and Jenelle would pose together now (and also because of Leah’s braces), but you can see here what she used to be working with.
4. Things Change
But hey, the girl’s had three kids and gained a little bit of weight. She looks great, obviously, but it just makes sense that her body would be different after all of that, you know?
5. Hmmm …
Of course, while we’re already here going on and on about her boobs anyway, we might as well mention that a lot of people think she’s gotten implants at some point.
6. We See You!
In the fall of 2016, Kailyn began sharing pictures like this, and people couldn’t help but notice that she looked a little fuller in the chest than she had before.

Kaley Cuoco Hospitalized for Shoulder Surgery on Her Honeymoon
On Saturday, June 30, Kaley Cuoco married Karl Cook! It’s wonderful news!
After the wedding comes the honeymoon. Not all marriages begin like a fairy tale.
Unfortunately, Kaley ended up spending hers in the hospital while undergoing shoulder surgery.
Kaley Cuoco shared a couple of images of her less-than-blissful honeymoon.
“When your ‘honeymoon’ is shoulder surgery,” Kaley says in the captions. “And your husband looks just as happy lol.”
He was clearly a very good sport about the whole thing. As, of course, we would hope that any spouse would.
Kaley then announces that she is “on the road to recovery.”
That is great news. The sooner that she makes a full recovery, the sooner that she can get back to enjoy her married life!
(This is a photo that Karl shared, showing how little enthusiasm she had for a spoiled honeymoon)
Kaley offers a shout-out to her fans.
“Thank you for all the love and support,” Kaley writes, followed by a red heart emoji.
“Knowing @mrtankcook,” she says. “I’m sure he will be posting tons of hilarious gems.”
Gems like the photo of her very grumpy face.
“Thank god,” Kaley says. “My hair color is on point”
Though we’re glad to hear that Kaley is recovering, that sounds like some truly miserable timing, right?
Kaley took to her Instagram stories to explain that the surgery wasn’t an emergency situation.
“For everyone asking,” Kaley explained. “Because everyone’s been so sweet and worried about me, this is a planned surgery.”
She reveals that this surgical appointment is one that “I’ve had for over a year.”
“I hurt it over a year ago,” Kaley reveals, adding that she “did not need immediate surgery” at the time.
“So,” Kaley explains. “I brilliantly planned it five days after our wedding. Right, babe?”
That is … not ideal timing.
At the same time, however, it’s certainly better than undergoing surgery prior to your wedding.
You don’t want your arm in a sling when you walk down the aisle.
Sometimes, people recovering from surgery are on medications that do not mix with alcohol. You certainly don’t want that.
And since it’s been scheduled for a year, it’s not like she got injured on their honeymoon and had to cancel perfectly laid plans.
Back in the olden days, honeymoons were high-pressure situations in which a newly married couple was at least assumed to be having sex for the first time and, for the first time, getting to know one another in a domestic setting.
Now, unless you’re part of a Duggar-like fertility cult or simply choose to wait, most couples are comfortable with each other sexually.
And, quite frankly, most have lived with each other well before tying the knot.
The honeymoon is now more of a very special vacation for couples and less of a high stakes opportunity to find out whether or not two near-strangers have made a catastrophic mistake.
In that sense, Kaley’s timing is actually pretty great.
Sure, she’s recovering from surgery — but now she has her husband to look after her. That is so sweet.

Abby Lee Miller Shares Graphic Pic Following Second Emergency Surgery
Last month, Abby Lee Miller underwent a second emergency surgery on her spine. The once-and-future Dance Moms star’s cancer spreads quickly, and requires swift treatment.
Miller has now updated fans on how her spine is healing, sharing a graphic photo of her progress.
Be warned, folks. This photo is not for the faint of heart.
Abby Lee Miller is battling cancer. She has Burkitt lymphoma, a fast-spreading cancer that is usually only found in children, but there are adult cases.
She’s shared this new photo (below) update.
First, Miller provides a little context, writing: “After the 2nd surgery.”
The second surgery was performed after an MRI led her doctors to believe that it was necessary.
“My back,” Miller announces. “Is finally on the mend.”
Healing from surgery is zero fun, but healing from spinal surgery is worse. You cannot even rest on your back for a long time, for obvious reasons.
“I just wish,” Miller adds. “The top section & bottom would hurry along too!”
There is the photo. As she mentiones, there appears to be faster healing along the center.
“I had 52 staples perfectly aligned,” Miller describes.
Surgical staples are often used to repair long incisions for certain procedures.
“And now,” Miller laments. “A bunch of crazy stitches are holding my neck & lumbar region together!”
If that thought makes you a little queasy, you’re not alone.
She ends her captions with tags, writing: “#abbyleemiller #abbylee #dancemoms @hoomanmelamedmd #aldc #aldcla #spjne #disc”
Dr. Hooman Melamed is her orthopedic spine surgeon.
Burkitt lymphoma has a 90% recovery rate in children. In adults, who are less likely to have it, the recovery rate is somewhat lower.
But not only is Miller getting necessary treatments, including chemotherapy, it sounds like she has a positive attitude.
Even so, reports say that Abby Lee Miller is prepared for the worst as she continues with her treatments. That is smart, even if it can feel a little grim.
Through a combination of surgeries, chemo, and radiation, fans hope and pray that Miller can make a full recovery.
The good news about Burkitt is that because it spreads quickly, it also tends to respond to treatments faster than slow-growing cancers.
Sometimes, you have to focus on the positives and be hopeful.
Fortunately, Miller has a lot to which she can look forward.
First of all, prison is behind her. She’s done with her time behind bars and she’s also done with her time in a halfway house.
Second of all, to the shock (and joy) of countless fans, Dance Moms is coming back.
Miller surprised fans with an informal announcement on Instagram.
But, honestly, if anyone’s going to break that news, it should really be Miller, right?
Still, people’s fingers are crossed for Miller.
Her back may still be healing from her surgery, but she’s also working hard to combat the cancer itself.
Miller is 51 years old and only got out of prison a few months ago.
She can conquer Burkitt lymphoma, but it will take a lot. Cancer always exacts its toll.
