Was the tummy tuck worth the near death experience? Even fashion has its limitations. What do you think?

Word on the street is Tameka Raymond's Brazilian tummy tuck went awry. Raymond's 37-year-old wife was thought to be dead. Now it said she's recovering in stable condition.  Why is all of this plastic surgery going bad? And why would someone go to Brazil to get it done when there are tons of plastic surgeons in Los Angeles? Is hiding the fact you got work done worth risking your life? I don't know about you, but I'm over all of this plastic surgery stuff for fakeness sake. Raymond reportedly wanted to be on The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Some images just aren't worth working so hard for. Your thoughts? Am I being a hater?

    The tummy tuck certainly wasn't worth her life. Isn't she a mother to five boys? Why would she risk watching them grow up to chase the fountain of youth? I understand wanting to slow the aging process down. But risking one's life for risky plastic surgery is not worth it.

    I wonder how much research is being done. I think the reason she went to Brazil is because they are suppose to be the experts on plastic surgery since young girls begin getting surgery as early as 11 years of age. Plus although there are tons of surgeons in L.A. perhaps she was concerned about the press and someone trying to sell the story. It is crazy though and sad that Men make Women think they have to do this because the Men are always going crazy over young bodies.

About Elizabeth Wellington
I’m a Libra so I’m all about pretty things. We of the scales sign know what we like, and our standards are high. So I can’t help but love fashion – one day I will get that Diane von Furstenberg wrap and those Christian Louboutin shoes. And fragrances? My favorite right now is Chanel Mademoiselle. As for makeup, can we say MAC? So let’s thank the Greek goddess of beauty, Aphrodite, that a true fashionista can find everything she needs right here in Philly. I’ve covered fashion here for six years, and I have traveled to New York, Los Angeles and Paris to write about local and national designers. Let me tell you, there is no place where people wear midnight Eagles green or Phillies red with such wild abandon as they do on the west side of the Ben Franklin Bridge. Sound familiar? This blog is for you.
