In her words, she was trying to adjust to her new reality of being a millionaire back then when she turned 21, but fans kept pressuring her to enhance her body.
Speaking via her IG handle, Latto said, “When I turned 21, I was just having money and living a new life. I gained a little weight and fans started making negative comments about my body. So I was a little scared about my body. I felt pressured to get a BBL.”
Latto rose to prominence after releasing her 2019 single “Bitch from da Souf,” which received double platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and marked her first entry on the Billboard Hot 100.
She was later named Variety’s “Breakthrough Artist” of 2022, and received a Grammy Award nomination for Best New Artist the following year.
