Tamar Braxton Shuts Down Rumors She’s Had a Tummy Tuck by Showing Video Evidence

Tamar Braxton is aware of speculation about her body and she is setting the record straight about how she managed to get her belly so flat.

On Thursday, Nov. 29, Braxton uploaded an Instagram video showing off her stomach post-workout.

“My surgery is the damn gym 🙄 try it!!! It works🙌🏾,” she wrote over the quick clip.

“I love y’all…(some of y’all)🤓….but I didn’t have no dang tummy tuck!!! 🙃 There is something called HARD work!!! Plus I love to workout… sometimes😩😩😂😂. NOW let’s get back to the videos 💦😍” Braxton wrote in the accompanying caption.

Fans who caught the post rallied to defend the singer against naysayers.

“I guess people forgot or ignored it all together, that she can’t have invasive procedures due to her blood clot syndrome.”

“Right, as a fellow clot survivor, I know Tamar isn’t about to play with her health n get surgery unnecessarily. … Besides, a ride on T’Challa a day keeps the rolls away💕😂💕.”

“I never thought she had surgery. She’s only had one child and was a pretty small woman in the first place.”

“Breakup body lol thats wassup looking good.”

“Tummy goals.”

Braxton’s fit frame is nothing new to fans. The star has been putting in work at the gym all summer to drop 20 pounds.

When the performer made the admission in July, some fans couldn’t believe it.

“20??!!! Omg where? Well, you definitely carried it well! Always on point!”

“Where??? And how? Yeen een have 20lbs to lose. So I’m confused.”

But more recently, fans have been concerned that Braxton may be getting a little too slim. When she posted a workout video on Instagram late last week, fans felt Braxton appeared a bit sickly.

“You look sick.”

“Losing too much weight. Starting to look sick.”

However, many more followers lifted her up exclaiming about how fit she is.

“Body Goals ❗️😩”

“Girl you know your body is snatched!!💣💣”

“Okay 😍trying to get like you.”

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.
