Blac Chyna says plastic surgery was ‘the golden ticket’ to fame

Blac Chyna celebrates her new look as she becomes known to the world by her birth name Angela White.

“It’s me now,” she said on Tamron Hall, while pictures of her face with and without filler were flashed on the screen. “You can see the difference here in the cheek area. You see, when I smile, now you can see all of my teeth. I had so much filler on my lips…I couldn’t even smile barely.”

The 34-year-old took to her social media to share the journey of removing putty from her cheeks, jawline and lips this month. She also underwent surgery to reduce her buttocks and breasts from silicone injections and enhancements she had done in the past.

As she’s ready to embark on her next chapter — one without cosmetic upgrades or her Only Fans page — she’s also reflecting on what got her to work in the first place.

“The insecurities and, honestly, what was going on at the time. You know, like in the industry, you want to have this image of yourself to look perfect. And that doesn’t exist,” she told Hall, noting that she was only 19 when she received her first injections in her buttocks. “I was an exotic dancer for six years, from 18 to 24. And being in the strip club or the gentlemen’s club, you look around, I’m super young, I look at women like, I looks at me like, ‘Okay, that’s not it. It’s not going to make money. It’s not going to do it.’ So I felt the pressure of trying to hurry up and build my body.”

Looking back, she realized she should have waited.

“At 19, 18, your body is not developed. And you know, in my state of mind, I wasn’t thinking about it and nobody was telling me, you know, right from wrong,” he said. -she explains. “It was the golden ticket. I wasn’t worried about [the health risks] at all.”

She said it was around 2007 when she went to someone’s house to get her butt shot. She then went back six or seven times to “make my butt bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger.” Her breast enhancement happened when she was 20 and was followed by other changes. “It’s your body and I was using the sexual part of it to make money, to profit from it,” she said.

As for the possibility of another plastic surgery in the future, “I’m done with that,” she said. “No more.”
