Brooks Nader, the 28-year-old Sports Illustrated model, recently opened up about her experiences with cosmetic procedures and weight loss in a candid interview. Known for her honesty, Nader shared her journey on her reality show “Love Thy Nader,” where she discussed her use of GLP-1 medications for weight loss. In a conversation with Bustle, published on November 5, she revealed that she underwent a nose job, jokingly noting that some people have compared her appearance to that of Michael Jackson post-surgery.
Nader also highlighted several other cosmetic enhancements she’s embraced, including veneers and various injectable treatments, like salmon sperm facials and the Nefertiti Botox neck lift. In a light-hearted comment, she humorously remarked, “Every Christmas, you can catch me looking like Freddy Krueger.”
While acknowledging the harsh beauty standards prevalent in the modeling world, Nader was transparent about the positive impact her weight loss, approximately thirty pounds thanks to GLP-1, has had on her career. She recognized that her decision to embrace these changes has opened doors for more opportunities within the industry, underlining the complex relationship between personal choices and professional success in today’s beauty-centric world.
