However, some saw this instead as “confirmation” the idol got some sort of work done, with many accusing her of having gotten a BBL (Brazilian butt lift) or some other operation.

Alternatively, rather than comment on the lack of or existence of hip pads, or if she had has cosmetic work done, many expressed a desire that Yuna be appreciated for her visuals without a debate over her hips surfacing.

if you immediately felt the need to bring up the hip pad discourse instead of imagining yourself chomping on that thigh you literally do not deserve human rights
