Transgender influencer's rib‑to-crown transformation shocks online
Dreams of attaining the perfect body lead people to unconventional actions. Transgender influencer Emily James did not hesitate to undergo radical surgery, and her next step created quite a stir on the internet.
Plastic surgeries and body modifications have become immensely popular. The most attention is often given to extreme changes in appearance. Kev Matthews, a Dutchman, has undergone numerous body modifications. His skin is nearly entirely covered with tattoos, and he is embellished with implants and piercings, making him a captivating figure online.
Jessy Kirkpatrick, a body modification enthusiast, aims to have his name recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records. He wants to achieve the largest nostrils in the world. Despite the controversy surrounding his goal, his passion and determination have garnered many fans on social media.
Removed ribs and fashioned a crown from them
The story of Emily James captured the attention of American media. The transgender influencer from Kansas City underwent a surgical procedure in which six of her ribs were removed to reduce her waist circumference. She spent a substantial amount of approximately £14,000 on this endeavour. Emily plans to commemorate the transformation most unusually.
The influencer intends to create a crown from the removed ribs. If this seems odd, Emily initially entertained even more intriguing ideas. Fans suggested she cook and consume the ribs, and she considered gifting the extracted bones to her best friend. Ultimately, she resolved that the ribs would become a crown.
"My money, my body"
Emily documented the rib removal surgery on social media. In hindsight, she mildly regretted such a drastic intervention on her body. She had to wear a corset and endure a lengthy recovery period.
"Removing ribs doesn't alter the fact that I'm a nice, loving trans-woman. I know some of your mothers walk around with BBLs, so how is that different from what I did? It's my money, my body, and I'll do with it what I want," Emily emphasised.
