Rubi Rose is the latest celebrity to weigh in after SZA, Latto, and more discussed the topic in recent months.

Rubi Rose took a harsh stance on BBLs in a viral post on social media from Tuesday night. “Please stop getting a— shots,” she wrote on X (formerly Twitter). As the post circulated online, she elaborated on Instagram Live. “Get up b—h, go to the gym, f—k that BBL," she said. “Body tight but this p—y tighter.”

The stance resulted in plenty of mixed feelings in the replies to her post. "Literally why do u give a f*ck weird ass b*tch," one user wrote back. Another shot back: "Girl you are a known hoe, who leave nothing to the imagination, let people do what they want."

Rose is far from the first celebrity to speak on BBLs in recent months. For one, GloRilla denied getting any work done amid rumors to the contrary. ”I’ve been seeing everybody with all the BBL allegations and I wanna come on here and be honest,” Glo said, as caught by Billboard. “So, I didn’t get a BBL, but I did get some ‘discipline shots.’ So, I got ’em inserted right here and right here [pointing to her temples].”

On top of that, SZA recently admitted that she regrets getting a BBL during an interview with British Vogue. “I’m so mad I did that sh*t," she told the outlet.

What Is A BBL?

A BBL is a cosmetic surgery procedure that moves fat from one area of the body to the butt in order to improve size and shape. Further explaining why she regrets the procedure, SZA continued: “I gained all this weight from being immobile while recovering and trying to preserve the fat. It was just so stupid. But who gives a f*ck? You got a BBL, you realise you didn’t need the sh*t. It doesn’t matter. I’ll do a whole bunch more sh*t just like it if I want to before I’m f*cking dead because this body is temporary. It just wasn’t super necessary – I have other sh*t that I need to work on about myself… I need to get my f*cking mental health together… Not to say you can’t do those things simultaneously, just, for me, I realise wherever you go, there you’ll be. But I love my butt. Don’t get me wrong. My booty look nice. And I’m grateful that it looks pretty much… I don’t know, sometimes natural, but I don’t even care. It’s something that I wanted. I’m enjoying it. I love shaking it.”

Additionally, Latto said that she felt pressured to get a BBL when she was 21 years old, last year. Blac Chyna, Cardi B, and more celebrities have all weighed in on the topic as well.

Zayn Malik said he truly enjoyed returning to a “pop” sound for his collaboration with BLACKPINK member Jisoo on their track “Eyes Closed.”

The former One Direction singer recently joined her on the ballad and called it a major “honour” to work with someone he considers one of the leading voices “owning that genre” right now.

Speaking while hosting a special hour on BBC Radio 1, he said, “I have drifted away from the pop sound for a bit, so coming back to it with the people who are basically owning that genre at the minute was an honour.”

He added, “If I can say thanks to Jisoo, I am really happy with the way it turned out.”

Zayn also shared that his “cool collaborator” helped him score some serious dad points with his five year old daughter Khai, whom he shares with his former partner, Gigi Hadid.

He wrote on Instagram while posting promo photos from the release, “@sooyaaa__ Jisoo.. you’re an absolute legend, loved every part of this collaboration, thank you for making me the coolest dad around.”

Jisoo replied, “You already are.”

Although he stepped back into pop for “Eyes Closed,” Zayn recently revealed that his next album incorporates influences from Indian music.

The “Pillowtalk” singer confirmed that his fifth studio album will arrive next year and hinted that it will carry a similar spirit to his chart topping 2016 solo debut Mind of Mine.

Zayn was quoted by The Sun’s Bizarre column during a livestream saying, “The next album is soon.”

“I have been working on some cool s*** in South Asian music and bringing those influences into my music as well.”

“It is like pop, R+B, and a lot of Indian influences. The record is like a continuation of Mind of Mine in that sense. I might have some songs coming out in Urdu, too.”
