‘My Killer Body With K. Michelle’ Preview
Kimberly “K.” Michelle is a singer and reality TV star who is “one of the very first celebrities to come forward with her personal health struggles after silicone injections nearly took her life,” according to the Lifetime press release.
It continues:
R&B chart topper K. Michelle will help men and women desperate to reverse plastic surgery procedures that now threaten their lives in “My Killer Body with K. Michelle.” With the number of cosmetic surgeries on the rise and an alarming number of these procedures resulting in post-surgery suffering and trauma, each episode will follow two patients who desperately need help as well as K. Michelle’s ongoing personal story.
With reports revealing over $9 billion spent on plastic surgery in 2020 alone just in the United States, Lifetime takes a deep dive into the darker side of achieving physical perfection.
In an interview with People, K. Michelle detailed the four surgeries and two blood transfusions she had to undergone after her blackmarket procedure.
“[The man who performed the initial surgery] wasn’t a doctor — it was black market, it was these ‘hydrogel’ injections — that’s what they were being called. When I found out my favorite rapper did it, that’s when I decided, ‘I’m getting it done,” said K. Michelle.
She was pleased with the results for about five years, until the silicone started spreading down her legs and damaging her tissue. She was eventually rushed to the emergency room where she received two blood transfusions. Then the reconstructive surgery started.
“I’ve gone through a physical transformation, a mental transformation, I think I’m more tough,” said K. Michelle. I’ve always been a fighter and able to survive but it’s made me pay attention to other people around me and all the things I take for granted. Now, I don’t take a minute for granted. And hopefully this [transformation] will go on through the rest of my life and not just through this healing process, but so people can tell the difference in my fight. It’s even stronger.”
In an interview with DJ Quicksilva, K. Michelle begged her fans not to pursue these kinds of procedures, saying, “Please listen to me/ I have no reason to lie to you, no reason to just say anything to you. This was real life one of the worst decisions of my entire life, leave it alone.”
The premiere episode of “My Killer Body” is titled “Suffering in Silence” and its description reads, “Que hides in bathrooms painfully scratching at the sores from her silicone butt injections, a procedure she’s kept secret from her friends and family for fear of being judged; Sung, a mother of two, underwent a ‘Mommy Make-Over’ that left her belly severely infected.”
K. Michelle also stars on the upcoming Lifetime movie “Single Black Female” alongside Raven Goodwin and Amber Riley.
“My Killer Body With K. Michelle” premieres Friday, January 28 at 10 p.m. Eastern and Pacific times on Lifetime.
