SZA has long been praised for her brutally honest lyrics, and she continues to stay true to herself when it comes to discussing her personal experiences. The Grammy-winning artist recently opened up about her Brazilian butt lift (BBL) in a candid interview, revealing that while she initially loved the results, she now regrets undergoing the procedure.
In 2024, the “Kill Bill” singer shared that she opted for the surgery as a quick fix to achieve the body she desired, explaining that her gym efforts weren’t yielding the results she had hoped for. Initially, SZA was pleased with her enhanced figure, saying, “I love my butt. Don’t get me wrong. My booty look nice. And I’m grateful that it looks pretty much… I don’t know, sometimes natural.” However, with time, she reflected on the decision and admitted that the surgery was unnecessary. “I’m so mad I did that sh*t,” she confessed, adding that the difficult recovery process made it even harder to maintain her fitness routine. “It was just so stupid,” she lamented.
Despite her mixed feelings about the procedure, SZA has made peace with it. In a 2023 conversation with Elle, she joked about how she now treats her enhanced body as an accessory, saying, “I treat my butt like a purse. It’s just there to enhance whatever else. And that’s why I paid for it, because it works all by itself.”
Fans have lauded the singer for her openness about the cosmetic surgery, especially since many celebrities are often tight-lipped about similar procedures. SZA’s transparency has earned her praise on platforms like the Instagram account @igfamousbydana, which is dedicated to documenting A-list transformations. The page posted images of SZA’s BBL, applauding her for being forthright about her choices. “Take notes, celebs and influencers, this is all we want from you on this,” the caption read. “We don’t even need details (although they’d be appreciated), just a simple ‘yep had some work done and I love it!’ Would suffice.”
Before publicly acknowledging her surgery, SZA hinted at her decision in her hit “SOS” album. On the title track, she rapped, “That a** so fat, it look natural / It’s not,” and later addressed the topic again on “Conceited,” where she lyrically proclaimed, “I just got my body done, ain’t got no guilt about it.”
Despite any external pressures, SZA emphasized that her decision to undergo surgery was driven by her own personal insecurities rather than media influence or industry expectations. “I succumbed to my own eyes in the mirror and being like, ‘No, I need some more a**,'” she explained, further affirming her agency in the process.
Her honesty continues to resonate with fans, and SZA remains one of the few celebrities willing to openly discuss her cosmetic enhancements without shame.
