Princess Module Ozolua, popularly referred to as the pioneer of body enhancement and plastic surgery in Nigeria, has said that she regrets going public with her own cosmetic surgery.
In an interview with Ebuka Obi-Uchendu on Rubbing Minds, Modupe said:
''Initially I wasn't open to telling anybody because it is a personal choice and it is nobody's business. I didn't have to tell anybody that I did anything. But the level of ignorance was very disturbing.
"People said if you did your stomach or did your chest or did your nose and if you are on the plane, you would die. And I'm now like are these people really serious? And that was what prompted me to pay to be on the cover of Ovation magazine.. That I finally said what I had done. That was the first time I said it.
"Many times now, I look back and wished I never did because prior to that, I was being celebrated as the young genius. The minute I said I had done augmentation, Oh yeah I was now the boobs lady. I was like who are these people.
So people pay to be on magazine covers?
ReplyDeleteLolll, you must be a learner!
DeletePeople pay to be on newspaper covers.
DeletePeople pay to be on blog 'covers'.
If you know, you know.
I am a serious learner, so these people pay to be on magazine covers?
Deleteshe paid because she was advertising her business....she was doing cosmetic surgery at the time amd telling her story was strategy to also get people to believe the process..but trust Nigerians, very myopic and backward thinkers..so its not that you just wake up and pay to be on a magazine cover
DeleteForget paying on magazine covers. They paid to be mentioned on blogs. Every time you see Bloggers posting or mentioning those good for nothing Jobless actresses, they paid for their names to be mentioned. Same applies to actors and musicians. Is all PR.
DeleteBaby oku.@your last statement
DeleteIf you don't know something shut up and learn. Ok.
This was how one ignorant suegbe was angrily dragging with me that there are no people of Yoruba descent in Brazil. When a simple click on Google could have saved 'it's' dumbness.
First, you don't need to be 'advertising' anything to be on the front cover her in naija. After all, you can easily pay for a full page or centerspread advert anywhere in in magazine or paper. Her interview could have been inside spanning few pages WITHOUT front cover.
If you have the MONEY and you want to be on the front cover of a newspaper or magazine in NIGERIA,your money can make it happen. Simple. Just be popular,influential and/or have money. I know Punch is very strict, but every other is fair game. When you need to pay to get your songs any airplay is it magazine and newspaper that will be forming ethics? Ethics that have long gone to the dogs? Or you don't know that interviews on radio/tv where you are not an invited guest are paid for? Let those who know better tell you better. Infact what do I know sef? Ayam just a 'layzy' Nigerian yoot.
It still adds up to 'u can pay to be on magazine cover.' Self promotion, paid promotion...they're all real.
DeleteLol....Nigèrians will tag you with your mistake and it stays
ReplyDeleteSo truly she did cosmetic surgery. Na wa.
ReplyDeleteThought it was jealousy from women that were saying this.
Stephanie cole...Nice ass..can see u went to the doctors...thats why u stopped taking pics for d gram by d way...well ur husband has d money 🤷🏼♀️

ReplyDeleteAhh...if course, its not free.
DeleteSo People pay to be on front cover? What a life!
ReplyDeletebut the breast does not look enhanced anymore. do they also need to touch up?
ReplyDeleteHer body , her business , her money
ReplyDeleteI heard they even pay for the lead roles in movies SMH.
ReplyDeleteSo my neighbour had one recently, the BBL. But she's a terrible liar, more like HERRIBLE (horrible+terrible).
ReplyDeleteShe parked her car in my driveway weeks ago, so I came back that night and asked them to tell her to please remove it. She calls the gateman who gives me the phone and the she says she just had operation for fibroids. That she's in pain and her brother isn't around to move it that I should park somwhere else and she would find someone to move it the next day. I felt bad for her, so I let it slide. That car didn't leave my driveway for 3 weeks. Lol..But I didn't want trouble since fibroid is now the new 'terminal disease' abi? Mind you I don't talk to this girl cos she thinks she's has drama she doesn't know my own is double. Growing up, we never really had to relate with neighbours cos I never lived in a shared compound until I started renting my own house. So when i see a silly neighbour, I just become a snob who doesn't have time.
On Friday, I had had it. So when I hear her voice speaking to my other neighbour, I came out and asked her to please move her car. I thought she would say no but she didn't. First thing i noticed was she looking like kim Kardashian, but I just felt that I was the one who never looked well given that I intentionally act as if I don't see her. So while she asked her brother to bring the key she continues gisting with the other neighbour and I stood at my door to ensure she moved. She told the other neighbour she has an operation for cyst and couldn't sit cos the suture would tear open (fibroid, now cyst??!) Heheh.... I smelt a rat. She went on to say she now wears shapewear, so her tights are toned and was telling the other beigbout to try and get one. She was speaking loudly, like she was tryibg to get my attention (very lousy girl!) I just dey press phone till she moved, I went my in and asked my flat mate what operation the girl had. My flat mate said as she was driving to work one day, the girl asked her for a lift. She found it difficult to climb the SUV, and my flat mate was like 'are you okay', she said yes oh that she had an operation for appendicitis and all so she's still a bit weak. Next thing she enters my flatmates car and says please she can't sit down that she has to bring the chair down so she can lay down on one side. My flattie didn't complain. Then she pulled up her maxi dress to reveal shapewear. My flatmate said at that point she was confused because if you had appendicitis surgery, you should not be wearing shapewear on your tummy one week later, cos the scar has to heal. Right?? But she didn't think much of it cos it's not her body.
Immediately I told her of my own experience and the one I just saw outside now, we burst out laughing 🤣🤣🤣 babe is such a sore liar!!
Common facts are after the BBL, you don't sit directly for about 2 weeks. You aren't allowed to drive for at least 3 weeks, if you get in a car you lay down. You have to use shapewear to contour the fat properly, and be less active for at least 3 weeks to give your body time to heal and form.
ReplyDeleteNote that I'm definitely gonna have one and have done my research to know what to expect. Lol. But instead of calling non-existent sicknesses upon myself, I will just be mute. What happened to pleading the fifth? I mean modupe was honest in days when these things were seen as taboo in Nigeria, so I get her point. But now that we are having mixed feelings towards it, don't be lying to smart people, just keep your dumb lips mum. Especially when nobody asked you directly, you just let guilty conscience let you start telling lies to yourself 🙄🙄🙄
#namaste 🙏
Still waiting for the day INI Edo will tell us her story.
DeleteChai... see lie😃😃😃. When you tell a lie, you need to keep covering the lie with other ones.
Deletei wonder why people keep mute when asked, i have done it and when i;m asked i say it as it is...money well spent. oh!!! make sure you DO NOT get it done in Nigeria whatever you do..
DeleteBut its better to keep mute than to lie. You don't really owe people information about you. But to say it's several diseases --cyst, appendix, fibroid, hian. That's to show how judgmental and hypocritical our society is. Most of them getting surgeries have openly condemned it and judged people in the past, so they are afraid of being judged or ridiculed as well. Same with bleaching/toning. I'm not one for all these, but I observed that most who condemned Toke Makinwa were lowkey jealous of her bleached but glowing skin. The nerve of her to not care, ahh. Most of them were saying she will have cancer of the skin but they are the ones getting lighter like her now.
DeleteAll this one uou people are saying is just entering one ear and coming out of the other. Abeg.... which of you is going to hold my hand before they administer anaesthesia? 🤣🤣🤣
DeleteChikito,you like attention .if it is toke you'll become irritated,you must always have story.
ReplyDeleteLol. At least im not magnifting or announcing any illness. Be happy for me 😁
DeleteOH!!!....I remember this magazine...she looked absolutely stunning in it...FINE WOMAN!
ReplyDeleteShe's is absolutely stunning surgery or not. I admire her philanthropic work too. I also wished she wasn't so vocal then when body augmentation was considered a taboo by many, with the likes of Dr lazer and many celebs doing it, it's slowly becoming accepted. I noticed she'd been sidelined but she was one of the first women to be open about this but No people judged her so much back then, anyways just do you so long you are happy.
