quality control...

Recently overshadowed by the news of Chris Brown's major meltdown was another R&B artist's hospital visit. Usher's wife and baby mama, Tameka Foster, was in Brazil having "routine plastic surgery" when she suffered cardiac and respiratory arrest due to "complications." Reports say she was having liposuction and I just have to wonder why someone would go all the way to South America for lipo?!? Could the wife of Usher Raymond be feeling the pinch of the ecomonic crisis along with the rest of us?? Maybe she can't afford to use the best Beverly Hills has to offer! Somehow I highly doubt that! Maybe she wanted to stay out of the public eye post surgery...isn't that what they have high-priced private recovery centers for?!? And it's not like she was getting a nose job where she'd need to be bandaged, it was just lipo which I have to assume was necessary due to the recent birth of her 5th child. I'm no expert on Brazil's medical certification standards but I have seen Dateline NBC and seeing some chick get a breast augmentation for $3500.00 and ending up with only one breast was enough to scare me from ever wanting to cross the border to save a few bucks. I'm all for saving a few dollars, you know, buy your fake Gucci bag, import your viagra from Canada but when it comes to plastic surgery don't you want to consider quality first?!? I'm certainly planning to have my share of plastic surgery in the future after I've had kids and my ta-tas are inevitably drooping to my knees but I think I'll save up the extra 4000.00 and stay stateside, not worth it!! We've seen what bad plastic surgery can do...i.e., the former Michael Jackson to the right here....don't risk it!
