Chrissy Teigen: “I was joking about the plastic surgery on my face”

But she's definitely had armpit liposuction.

Twitter MVP and queen of real talk, Chrissy Teigen, sent the Internet into a spin last week when she admitted to having extensive plastic surgery during the launch of her new Becca palette. “Everything about me is fake except my cheeks.”

Teigen pointed to her forehead, her nose, her lips: “Fake, fake, fake.”

Naturally, news feeds caught on and Teigen later took to Twitter to clarify her comments in her trademark sassy style:

The 31-year-old explained that she’d had armpit surgery but she was joking about everything else being fake. “Reminder to never ever joke, ever,” she tweeted. “(I did do the armpits, no regrets except it clearly came back)…”

Byrdie reported the model and mum to baby Luna, 13 months, underwent the unusual procedure 9 years ago. “It added two inches of length to my arms,” she said. “[That fat] is coming back though, so I might need to go in and pay for it again,” she laughed. 

And as if we needed more reasons to love her, the Lip Sync Battle co-host signed off with: “You think I’d have this ass if I’d done extensive work? Like who would ask for this ass.”
