Haters Say I Look Like Michael Jackson | HOOKED ON THE LOOK
FOR PLAYBOY MODEL Ana Espinola, looks are everything. The Mexican fitness model and influencer, who now lives in Dubai, has seen her career blossom thanks to her stringent workout schedule and the help of plastic surgeons. Ana said: "There are no ugly women, just women that don't want to invest in themselves." Ana has spent over $100,000 on various cosmetic procedures including three rounds of rhinoplasty and five boob jobs. Apparently, that's not enough for the increasingly saturated social media landscape. "Everybody's a playmate, everybody's a Victoria's Secret model," Ana added. "Just showing your boobs, you think you will get viral, but there are too many boobs on social media already." Although she has built a solid following, Ana has faced criticism for getting some work done - people have accused her of looking like Michael Jackson after her nose jobs. Ana shrugged these comments off: "I don't really get offended because I do like Michael Jackson."

00:03 People won't pay to see something that looks bad.
00:07 I was the Miss Potato Nose.
00:10 I did nose three times.
00:13 A lot of people tells me I look like Michael Jackson.
00:15 I spent more than 100,000.
00:18 It's getting hard to get viral.
00:20 There's too many boobs in social media already.
00:23 Everybody's playmate, everybody's Victoria's Secret model.
00:26 There's no ugly women, just women that doesn't wanna invest in their self.
00:30 I'm going to reduce the size of my boobs.
00:34 I have bigger than this in my boobs.
00:36 >> Yes.
00:36 >> I didn't know my boobs were bigger than this.
00:39 This is like way big.
00:42 I wake up every day and I do one hour of cardio at my house or
00:47 sometimes when I'm walking my dog.
00:50 And then I do one hour of weights with my personal coach.
00:54 For me, it's really, really important because it keeps you active.
01:00 It gives you discipline, not only in nutrition, but mentally.
01:06 My name is Ana Espinola.
01:08 I am athlete, playmate, and content creator.
01:11 I do fitness competition.
01:13 I was doing fitness in a professional way in a EFBB.
01:18 Since I appear in Bling, I moved from Abu Dhabi to Dubai.
01:23 I am doing another fitness competition by end of this year.
01:27 [MUSIC]
01:35 I hope I get a lot of views.
01:37 I'm not a TikToker yet, but I'm trying, I'm trying.
01:41 I work in a paid platform and that killed me a lot.
01:46 People won't pay to see something that looks bad.
01:49 I'm gonna pay for your content if you don't make the effort.
01:52 They're not gonna invest, so you have to invest in yourself.
01:56 End of the day, everyone is in bikini.
01:59 It's getting hard to get viral just showing your boobs.
02:02 You think you will, but there's too many boobs in social media already.
02:06 So let's hope this one gets views.
02:09 You see working out, no views, but drinking tequila, 167.
02:14 The first procedure that I did was the boobs.
02:17 Latinas have to be curly, right?
02:20 It wasn't that I didn't have boobs.
02:22 It was more that I see everybody getting it, so I wanna have it as well.
02:27 Yeah, I was like so skinny and my nose was horrible.
02:32 I was the Miss Potato Nose.
02:35 I did nose three times.
02:39 A lot of people tell me I look like Michael Jackson.
02:42 I don't really get offended because I do like Michael Jackson.
02:46 I spend more than 100,000.
02:49 I grew up in Asuncion in Paraguay.
02:52 I moved to Mexico.
02:55 I started to work in TV and I started to eat a lot.
02:59 I started to be super, super overweight.
03:02 So it's in my head, you look good this way, you don't look good this way.
03:06 Then it's when I started to have eating disorders.
03:12 And after that, I realized I need to sort this out because it's just
03:17 consuming me too much.
03:19 And when I started to do fitness and be slim, I was able to get inside
03:24 Playboy Mexico and I worked with them for three years.
03:28 Taking care of your appearance help you a lot because if I was still being
03:33 overweight, I don't think I will have the opportunity to be in so many
03:38 magazines.
03:39 So I do understand the prototype of what the people is looking.
03:44 The next procedure that I'm planning on getting is I'm going to reduce
03:49 the size of my boobs because I want to compete again.
03:53 Right now, it's really heavy for my back.
03:56 I do like a natural look for every day.
04:00 So I use a lot of skincare and I try not to go so crazy.
04:05 But when I go to dinners or special events, I put like a little shadow.
04:11 I do think grooming every day, even to go to the supermarket, is something
04:16 you have to do.
04:17 So I think we're ready for the doctor.
04:19 So let's go.
04:22 I decided to move to Dubai during the pandemic.
04:25 My lifestyle in Dubai is completely different.
04:28 Everybody's claiming Victoria's Secret model, Miss Russia, Mr.
04:32 Train.
04:32 Living in Dubai, you just need to be.
04:36 Come on, they put gold to the coffee and you expect to be like wearing what?
04:41 Flip flops?
04:42 No.
04:44 Doctor, I'm coming back because right now I have 650.
04:49 And the left side, you already know that it's not good.
04:55 A smaller or even 400 something will help me.
04:58 One big problem.
05:00 Why?
05:00 And it's about the scars.
05:01 OK.
05:02 I have performed surgery on her twice.
05:06 What we want is to make her more comfortable with her body.
05:10 Any surgery has a lot of risk, any risk you can imagine.
05:13 But that's why we must be prepared to solve them.
05:16 For me, it's really good that people get concerned about their appearance
05:21 and that they always want to look better.
05:23 My job and my colleagues' job is to make people more comfortable
05:29 with their bodies.
05:30 If you want to make them smaller, I need to do a big scar.
05:35 So we can go from this one to this one.
05:38 How much is this one?
05:39 This one is 400.
05:40 400.
05:41 And this one is 535.
05:42 This will be my new size?
05:44 That will be your new size.
05:46 But it looks too big.
05:49 I have bigger than this in my boobs.
05:50 Yes.
05:51 I didn't know my boobs were bigger than this.
05:53 This is like way big.
05:56 I'm feeling excited that my boobs are going to have a nice result.
06:02 I am going to be laying low until the surgery.
06:05 The ultimate goal is to look more petite.
06:08 Just because I was in Playboy and they see me, I look like this,
06:12 they are like, oh, she's a [BLEEP] immediately.
06:16 She's so shallow because of this or because of this.
06:19 And it's just the environment that you're living.
06:21 So the people already have this concept of you.
06:23 Comment that I get online and kind of really piss me off and say,
06:28 oh, it's full of plastic.
06:30 First of all, the only thing that I have plastic in my body
06:33 is my boobs, my implants.
06:35 Everything else, I work so much in the gym.
06:40 And I starve myself so, so much.
06:43 You don't understand how hard it is not eating what you want when you want.
06:48 It starts to affect you emotionally.
06:50 But when you see the results the day of the competition,
06:53 you feel proud of yourself.
06:55 They were making jokes that I was so fat.
06:57 After, they were making jokes because I was too skinny.
07:01 And now they're making jokes because I have plastic in my body.
07:04 So you are not able to please everyone.
07:07 So you just have to please yourself.
07:10 If you are not mentally strong to deal with this,
07:13 you're going to get affected.
07:14 You know when you go to a supermarket and you see Barbie, right?
07:18 And they all look, have different outfits, but they all look the same.
07:22 So I don't want to be going to the same doctor, doing the same procedure,
07:26 having the same BBL.
07:28 I want to feel good.
07:30 And when you feel good, you will reflect this.
07:32 So I don't want to be just a repeated cartoon.
07:35 I don't know if I'm ever going to retire because, you know,
07:38 today you are with your phone taking pictures 24/7.
07:41 Even if I am on vacation, it's like, OK, I'm still working.
07:44 And I'm still going to make money.
07:45 There is no ugly women, just women that doesn't want to invest in themselves.
