Ace Nollywood actress Funke Akindele has admitted that she would have undergone a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) procedure if she had the fortitude to withstand the associated pain.
The award-winning filmmaker shared this during a recent appearance as a guest on the latest episode of The Morayo Show.
While sharing her opinion on BBL, Akindele admitted to admiring the results—particularly subtle enhancements, flat stomachs, and liposuction.
However, she noted that while it is acceptable for women to enhance their bodies through surgical procedures, it is vital that they first conduct a thorough risk assessment.
“I love to see beautiful women with beautiful bodies. I actually like BBL—the skinny ones, not the big ones. I love the flat tummy and liposuction. I want to do it, but I don’t have the heart for it,” Akindele said during the interview.

She continued: “I am not against BBL. If you want to enhance your beauty, go ahead, but don’t overdo things. Be careful.”
The movie star also opened up about her personality and how fame has affected her relationships, describing herself as an “extremist” who “loves hard.”
She further described herself as being “very strict,” noting that her disciplined nature has forced her to let go of people she once loved dearly.
The thespian noted that one of the prices of stardom is loneliness.
“It is actually lonely at the top because if you want to remain there, you have to be guarded and disciplined. It can be very boring because you won’t have many friends,” she explained.
Akindele also stated that she is still learning how to manage relationships better, but she emphasised that her mental health remains her top priority.
