In the music industry today, BBLs are virtually as common as recording contracts. Most of our favourite rap divas have undergone plastic surgery procedures to physically enhance themselves, be it breast augmentations, butt injections, or tummy tucks. Of course, each individual is free to do what they want with their body, but dishonesty about what’s natural and what’s fake has left a bad taste in some fan’s mouths. Presently, BBLs are so popular that the internet seems to have a hard time discerning who’s gone under the knife, and who’s been in the gym. Genre-bending artist Monica is the latest to be flooded with accusations of getting her body done, which she openly addressed on social media.
As AllHipHop reports, “The Boy Is Mine” hitmaker graced the stage at Tycoon Music Festival in Atlanta last week (February 13). After her performance, social media sleuths shared videos online pointing to Monica’s curvaceous behind in her green, velvet costume. “If Monica got a BBL I don’t like it, [because] her a** sittin’ higher than Jesus,” one Twitter/X user wrote. “It’s giving d relly where the money reside booty.” When the 43-year-old got wind of the comments she had no problem addressing them during an Instagram Live session yesterday (February 19).
