S01.E05: Like A Surgeon


Recommended Posts

A reality star seeks help for a botched boob job and stomach after her plastic surgeon is allegedly killed by an unhappy patient. Also: Paul fixes a piggish nose; and Terry consults with a Madonna impersonator.

I am so tired of losers trying to look like celebrities. Here's some news for you, Adam. There aren't fewer Madonna impersonators b/c they were eliminated, a la American Idol. They moved on on to more relevant singers.

I have no idea who Saffari is, but she's a pig.

I'm glad they were able to fix the one girl's nose, but her sisters' bad nose jobs made me wonder if there's more to this story than they're telling us.

Saaphyri is an interesting one. Appeared in the first episode of Flavor of Love 2- got kicked out pretty much immediately for getting into a physical fight. Had to be carried out screaming by Flav's bodyguard. She appeared in FoL Girls Charm school, which- if you can believe, sh won. She was on I Love Money season 2 and made it pretty far. Upon returning to the US after filming, she as taken into custody because she was on the run for years. The charge? Running up loans under her uncle's name for plastic surgery (although she later denied having a boob job, interesting recant there.) She was actually in prison for two years.

Nose girl looked amazing after. If you didn't see the cartoonish looking tip & carved out, jagged nostrils idk what to say. Dr.Nassif did a fantastic job. I would totally go to him if I wanted something done on my face. Nose jobs are one of the hardest things to correct hell to do in the first place. So many things can go wrong. 

 

Sapphyri was a trip. She did look great afterwards but I wish she would stop with that 4 ft. long weave she was rocking omg that was hilarious.

In one of those other reality shows I think it was Sapphiri (or however the hell you spell her name) who was on her knees next to her bed asking god to help her not beat some girl's ass . . . i think that's the same show she got kicked off of. Does she have money do you suppose, how could money from two or three flop reality shows put one in good standing?

My guess is unless she has a trust fund, no.   She's neither attractive or smart enough to make it in entertainment.   Being in jail for a couple of years tends to put you in arrears, too.   Reality rockstar, my ass.  She's a reverse Kardashian:   Trying to live off her "name" and "notoriety".   The difference is the Kardashians are connected in Hollywood, and love or hate them, they are attractive people.    This chick is a deluded, sad scrub of a woman.   No amount of blurring could hide her unfortunate pepperoni nipples.   Too bad she seems to be a moron, because she could do voice over work with that voice.   It's the one cute thing she has going for her. 

 

The nose job was pretty good,  but I don't buy her story about not wanting any cosmetic enhancements to it originally.    Likely she had a hook, and wanted the hook  refined or even completely changed, and ended up with the piggish nose.   It wasn't awful, but it looked so much better after.    I didn't even know there was such a thing as a middle eastern nose specialist.   Big hooked noses occur in many ethnicities, but we do tend to have them more.   Personally, I think they are sexy.

 

The Madonna impersonator was a waste of space who looked  nothing like Madonna, save for the nose he wanted done to look like Madonna.

Yes!  That's where I knew her.  Courtesy of a clip on The Soup.

Here's a not too great snip of it: 

 

I thought that prayer in the exam room was pretty contrived.

I've never seen any of the Flava shows but I did see a clip once of a girl on the show being told to leave after a fight and on the way out, she turned and spat on the girl she had been fighting with--is that the same girl?  (I think on the clip, they called it the "spit seen around the world"--haha, wishful thinking!)

It must be me b/c I don't see that much difference in the 'after' nose shots.

Wonky nostrils again.

When she started praying,I remembered where I saw her before, too.

No the spitter was someone else. I flashed back to the FoL prayer scene too. It was funnier the first time.

The girl dressed in black, in the end scene where she is in a limo with her friends, is Bootz/Larissa from FoL and CS.

The Flavor of Love spitter was Pumpkin. She spit on New York.  It's sad that I would know that.

I think she had exactly the nose she had asked for then wasn't happy with it. Most of the people have had multiple surgeries which makes me think the patient's are never happy.  Dr. Nasiff did a really good job on her nose.  

 

Sapphyri is crazy, but I do find her and her friends entertaining.  In small doses she could be really funny on a reality type show.

WHEW!  That IS a horrible thing to be able to remember!  Thank god, New York has passed from our purview.

I think they mentioned they'd all had nose jobs and that the woman featured had always had the worst one.  Well now that title is up for grabs because one of the sisters I saw had a real potato nose.

The main thing I'm starting to wonder about this show is are the patients getting all this cosmetic surgery for free? Or are they paying Dr. Dubrow and Dr. Nassif and then being paid by E! for appearing on the show? Anyone have any idea how this works? I'm wondering what the real appeal is to appear on a reality show about plastic surgery. Then again, I have absolutely zero desire to ever be on tv.

That's what I always thought too. Either the show pays or the Drs do it free for the publicity.

I like Saphyri (I have no clue how its spelled). I liked her on the Flavor of Love shows and I liked her on this one.

I think she's hilarious and she just seems like she would be a nice person. I don't see how she's a "pig" at all.

Beagletime, don't feel bad. I remembered all of that too.

I would imagine the Doctors are paid and the services are free.    The Doctors are the paid talent, and the Patients are the plotline and don't get paid, but get reimbursed in cc's.

 

Otherwise, why subject yourself to bad nipple blurring and snot shots on TV? 

 

Granny boob's Dad doesn't have a boat to spare to purchase  more boobs,  Uniboober looked sort of poor, unfortunate nose job girl spent all her money on tattoos,  and  Janice Dickinson probably did it for the Dilaudid drip. 

 

Seriously though, these boob and nose jobs are getting boring.   I suppose they are the more popular  surgeries, though.

I imagine there is incentive besides potential free surgery for most- someone like Venus d "

Lite (Madonna) or Saaphyri need a little air time to get their names back in the spotlight. By any means I suppose. I follow Saaphyri on Twitter (I like her too) and she's promoting like crazy, a new website and all.

I wonder if they do pay for part of it, though? Saaphyri hasn't done much since CS (where she claimed to be basically destitute) so it seems improbable that she could afford an all day surgery on her own.

On first watch, I didn't see the likeness between Adam & Madonna.  Then I watched again...in a dark closet in a different room down the hall from the TV while wearing a blindfold.  Gotta say, if I squint...still don't see it, you jackass!

 

Whoever the hell Saaphyri is...she looks a little long in the tooth to become a "star". 

 

I guess people like the patients on this show are a dime a dozen in LA-LA land. So phony and plastic and fake looking and they do it to themselves on purpose!

Saphyri (whatever; don't care) and that one friend of hers that tagged along with her to the doctors' office looked more like drag queens than the Madonna guy.

If this show is any indication, I guess going to the doc with your friend really is a thing, and I'm a bad friend.

It's only a matter of time before Trisha Paytas shows up, mark my word.

 

This is so funny!!  She's been on Ellen, America's Got Talent, one of those tv court shows, Dr. Phil and many more.

Her latest youtube videos look like she upgraded the implants.  If we're lucky they're Botched!

I am so ashamed to know all this.  If I knew as much about science as pop culture I could cure diseases!

Wasn't she going to use her Charm School winnings to start her own line of lace-front wigs?  I hope the wigs she wore on Botched weren't from her line.

She (Saaphyri) said she was making wigs for people with Alopecia and cancer on I Love Money 2, not sure if she is still at it. She also does hair (but her own hair usually looks pretty terrible, ironically.). She also had a line of lip chap from the incident where she beat H-Town's ass and the prayed and offered the girl lip balm. Who wants to use someone's lip balm anyway, particularly in that situation. Anyway I'm not sure how profitable either entity was, and now that he 15 minutes are up who knows if her sales are still decent.

God forbid any of these assholes get a real job like answering a phone, cleaning something or pushing a broom, FFS. I mean, I know they have no discernible skills, but it doesn't take any to wipe a rag back and forth. I completely agree with not wanting to see these reality "stars" on this show. I want to see real people with real problems, not ZZZZZ-listers in some douchey Burbank agent's ACT database.

The cookies at the doctor's office must be really good, Saaphyri was all about them. I would be far too self-conscious to eat cookies at a plastic surgeon's office, especially right before asking for a tummy tuck. The doctor did a great job, though. I did laugh at the whole limo-reveal thing, it was just so.. cheap? Tacky? Something like that. 

 

The nosejob fix was amazing, he did such a fantastic job, it looks totally natural. Madonna guy was totally forgettable for me, but I thought it was just so cute that he talked about falling in love with Madonna with the Ray of Light album. The more things change the more they stay the same, I guess.

This. Thank you. I think there are only about a dozen of us on Earth.

 

And this is why we snark, and why I will never be on TV. All I would think the whole time is, "People are tearing me apart on the Internet."

 

I have an estranged brother-in-law that may be going on a reality show (it's been in the works for, like, a year) and he's a shady individual, to say the very least. The fact that he's possibly going to be on a reality show is pretty much par for the course for his personality (and one of the production company's shows passed on him because of his shadiness/legal issues/etc., but an affiliation is still interested, supposedly, which tells you about the casting of these shows). I honestly hope he is on TV so I can see that the rest of the world, and not just my mother, recognizes him for the delusional jackass he is. I'm a terrible person, and I'm going to hell.

 

I'm pretty sure hell is a 24/7 reality show.

Is her hair line full of $800 Indian hair wigs? ;)

As a huge rupaul's drag race fan I wanted to give Venus D the benefit of the doubt but I'm so happy to hear yall didn't think he looked like Madonna either. He kept saying he was a top impersonator and it's like.... What? How? Where?? For me the look that makes Madonna is her teeth with the gap and the character of them. Hopefully he actually listens to them about his nose though and doesn't just try to find someone else.... He needs to watch this show so he can see what could happen! LOL

Who?

Exactly.  Unless you were being sarcastic, she's s dime a dozen striper turned escort turned actress who appears on those fake court shows and  other bottom feeder Hollywood scraps. .    She even showed up on "my strange addiction".   Her number 1 claim to fame is her youtube channel, where she does hauls and blogs about her unfortunate life.     She has massive boobs which are a combo of real and silicone.

 

So, like Sapphire or whatever, she's  a famewhore with dubious qualifications to being a "star".    She is smarter and can be entertaining, though.    If you're bored, google her.   You won't thank me later, though. 

 

ETA:  So those women waiting for the limo were "Flavor of love" alums?  One of them looked homlier than Flav, and like she could bench press him.   Glad to see they're finally  taking Beverly Hills, albeit almost 10 years later.     Don't call it a comeback.

I have always wanted to ask this but what is a "real job?"  What makes it real?  To me, any person on just about any job can be replaced.  I've always wanted to know what is the distinction between a fake job and a real job; to me, if you're getting paid, it's a job.

 

I don't think that people other than those who want to be on TV would ever go on a show like this.  Most people wouldn't want the world to know they've had cosmetic surgery in the first place.  Most people want to keep their medical issues private, not because of shame but because it's not anybody's business.

To me, a real job is one that contributes something, anything, to society. At least the phones get answered and the floors are clean in bilgistic's examples. Not sure what any of these fools on TV have contributed, other than the potental for snark.

Stella MD hit the nail on the head. People on reality shows are so narcissistic that they think just being alive and their dubious "good looks"(?) warrant them the exception from having to do any heavy lifting. They just have to show up, often being complete assholes with zero regard for anyone else. Edited by bilgistic

But if they entertain me, if they make me laugh when I've had a hard day, then they do contribute.  People contribute in different ways; we all don't have to do the same thing to contribute.  I enjoy watching these fools, they make me laugh, so to me, they're doing their job.

I like the premise of the show.  However, Terry Dubrow comes off like the jerk I always suspected he is.

I agree.  If anyone has had "botched" plastic surgery they are advertising for more patients.  The cost of the surgery is absorbed by production. 

 

Am I the only one who wonders how many surgeries they did that didn't show an improvement?  I much prefer Dr. Nassif to Terry Dubrow, Paul who is also a board certified ENT, really has made a difference in his revision rhinoplasty.  The patients they are showing with him are the extreme but I do know three people who say he is the God of surgery to get people breathing through their nose again, and one of the three did not want a cosmetic adjustment.  Terry is just all about what a wonderful practitioner he is.

If you are so broke you can't pay two months' of rent, meanwhile you've somehow amassed $100K in plastic surgery and are now getting a free boob job, you've got bigger problems than the existing "botched" boob job. As they say, look at your life; look at your choices.

I find it hard to believe that the production demands 2 months of the Patient's time, as in 320 hours.   I'm sure they have to go in and shoot things, possibly over two months,  but no way would they demand you quit your job and be on call.  Time is money, and they are going to get footage from these bozos in the can  quickly.    Methinks this lady had no job and is only now trying to stir the shit because her fugly mug got cut.

I have never watched this how before, but just saw about 3 minutes of it. Terry Dubrow was about to begin on a boob reduction on an African American woman, ....named "Sapphyrri". I instantly recognized that unusual name and also recognized her unique voice even without fully seeing her face (she was lying on the surgical table getting ready to go under.)

 

That said, I came to this forum to see if anyone posted what I think. Isn't this the woman that also appeared on:

 

1) one of the VH-1 Flavor of Love shows, and got kicked off early on for fighting with another girl for her choice of bed in the mansion.

 

Then, 

 

2) she also appeared on a subsequent VH-1 series (can't remember the exact title) where alot of the Flavor of Love and Rock of Love girls went to a British finishing school to get refined, and Sapphyrri won the big cash prize at the end of one of them. 

 

I HATE THAT I KNOW THIS.

 

Also, point being, these secondary tier of reality shows sure recycle people. Guess that's how they get cheap non-union labor.  

 

EDITED TO ADD INFORMATION: Yep. Here you go. Her name is Saaphyrri Windsor, aka Wanda Scott, and she just got outta jail! 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saaphyri_Windsor

I didn't like her. Now I know why. I hope they don't make a habit of having low-tier reality stars on this show.
