‘LHHH’ Fans Call Out K. Michelle’s New Look

R&B singer K. Michelle appeared on the first episode of “Love and Hip Hop: Hollywood” season five and fans hardly recognized her.

The star has been very candid about her plastic surgery within the last few months, but denied to having anything done to her face. The singer made her way to VH1’s big screen and viewers noticed her nose was smaller and cheeks were more narrow. One person noted that K. Michelle looked “so different.”

Fans and viewers slammed K. Michelle for having a “different face” and called the star “botched.”

A Twitter user wrote, “K Michelle looks so different didn’t even recognized her.”

Another said, “What surgery K Michelle had on her face? She looks a little different.”

“K. Michelle with this pinched nose crying about her botched ass 🤔.”

“K Michelle’s changed her name just as she’s changed her face.”

Another person wrote, “K Michelle’s face look like garbage just like those models twins..why she do that to her face.”

The “Maybe I Should Call” singer recently opened up about her illegal butt injections that she’s had removed. The implants were reportedly affecting her health. She discussed the botched surgery on “The Real” in January.

She said, “I did butt, I did hips. Now I’m to the point that I’ve been tired of it for years, and now it’s affecting my health.” K. Michelle added, “It’s the point where the aching and the pain that made me get checked for lupus, now it’s due to my legs. My butt is so big that my legs are not holding it.”

The singer has since undergone a total of four surgeries to remove the injections. Although, fans have speculated on whether or not she’s had a nose job, she told Newsweek magazine, “I’ve never touched my face.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
