Popular social media critic Martins Otse, known as VeryDarkMan, has condemned a viral comment made by Destiny, a friend of the late Jessica Elena, who compared Brazilian Bum Lift (BBL) surgery to childbirth.
In a widely circulated video, Destiny defended her late friend’s cosmetic surgery, questioning why people shamed Jessica Elena after her death. “People die from giving birth, people die from other sicknesses, so why is it that when someone dies from a cosmetic surgery that we shame them, we bully them, why?” she asked.
Responding to the clip, VeryDarkMan strongly disagreed, asserting that elective cosmetic procedures are fundamentally different from childbirth. “How do you even compare a person during plastic surgery to a person during childbirth? If you feel like what God did is not good, you wake up one morning to show God the mistake He made, and from there you come kpai,” he said in a fiery video reaction.
Jessica Elena reportedly passed away following complications from her second BBL procedure. Her friend, Destiny, had called for public action to demand accountability from the clinic where the surgery was performed.
The online debate quickly drew attention, with many social media users supporting VeryDarkMan’s stance. Comments included:
chi_simdiri: “She knows her target audience na. She’s looking for accolades.”
ArinzeNwaOtu: “The girl is truly a mumu for comparing the glorious and noble act of birthing another human with the classless, useless BBL.”
Prince_dc21: “The foolish woman never shouted for justice for women who die in hospitals from childbirth. Now she wants justice for her friend? Ma greedy and selfish business.”
daddyfemzy: “This is an insult to all amazing women who have died during childbirth.”
AkinniyiAyomid4: “Some women just want to eat men’s money instead of working and creating value. Some will spend 15M on a BBL rather than starting a business.”
The controversy follows similar discussions sparked by online personality Tunde Perry, who highlighted societal pressures on women to spend large sums on cosmetic enhancements rather than investing in sustainable businesses.
The incident has reignited debates about elective cosmetic surgery, social media influence, and the way society perceives choices made by women regarding their bodies.
