On April 18, Brandi Glanville shared a video clip from her podcast, “Unfiltered,” on her Instagram page, and some of her followers couldn’t help but be distracted by her appearance. “Is that a Brandi imposter with bad plastic surgery? Holy s***!!! That’s bad, real bad,” one person wrote. Others tried to be a bit kinder when commenting on her looks but still offered Glanville unsolicited beauty advice. “Brandi, love you, but please stop with the fillers,” read another message.
Glanville took to Twitter to address the latest spurt of plastic surgery speculation with an explanation for why she looked so different, and it demonstrated a true commitment to her job. “Ok I’m saying this once I had periodontal (gum) surgery on the right side of my mouth on my back right side because I had a cavity below the gum line,” she wrote. “It is infected and swollen I am on my second round of antibiotics.” Glanville vowed, “When I do get plastic surgery I will be the first to say.”
She’s not kidding. “I got a liquid nose job after I broke it,” Glanville told Life & Style (via the Daily Mail) in 2013. “A doctor has to replace the fillers in it periodically.” She previously shot down plastic surgery buzz in 2020, tweeting that another bout of brutal-sounding dental surgery — she had two teeth yanked out, people! — was to blame for her face’s altered appearance.
