Actress Nkechi Blessing Sunday has criticised what she described as double standards surrounding women’s bodies and cosmetic surgery.

In a video on social media, the actress called out men who now advise women to accept their natural bodies despite years of criticism and derogatory comments about their appearance.

According to her, the pressure created by such remarks has pushed many women toward cosmetic procedures, including the Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL).

Blessing argued that societal expectations and harsh judgments about women’s bodies have contributed significantly to the growing interest in body enhancement surgeries.

She said, “You people mocked women for years because of their bodies, but now you are the same ones telling them to love themselves the way they are. Many women went for BBL because of the insults and pressure they received about their bodies. You bullied women for not having big backsides, and now you are telling them not to do surgery. No amount of insults or abuse will push me to change my body. This body is my hard work and the success I have achieved”.

She emphasised that women should be free to make their own decisions about their bodies, without judgment.

The actress stated she’s proud of her body and won’t alter it due to others’ opinions, adding she’d only consider weight-loss surgery if needed.

She urged people to stop judging women for their choices regarding their own bodies.

“I am proud of my body, and I will not alter it because people talk. Women should be free to make their own decisions about their bodies. If I ever decide to do any surgery, it will only be weight-loss surgery. I will not go for enhancement procedures like BBL. People should stop judging women for the choices they make about their bodies”, she said.
