Bhad Bhabie, also known as Danielle Bregoli, the "catch me outside" girl from Dr. Phil has come a long way from being a popular meme. She's now a rapper and former BFF of Billie Eilish. You can say she put her Dr. Phil fame to good use. While many fans admire her hustle, some can't help but comment on her recent life choices like her OnlyFans career and her plastic surgery obsession. The 18-year-old's face has certainly changed a lot since her TV debut four years ago. Here's when fans started to notice "questionable" changes on her face.

Bhad Bhabie Was Unrecognizable In Makeover After Hitting $1 Million On OnlyFans
In early October 2021, Bhad Bhabie surprised her 4.6 million TikTok followers with a new look after earning $1 million on OnlyFans. She looked unrecognizable in the video where she was seen carrying a number of Chanel bags on her arm. "Golly gee, I sure do look like the disappointment of the family, but isn’t it funny how I make the most f**king money?" the rapper lip-synced in the clip. "Sit down, don’t f**king look at me like that." Fans were quick to assume that the young musician had work done on her face. However, Bregoli denied the claims and said her outrageous appearance was actually a "test."
"Y’all failed the test," she said in a video filmed inside a moving car. "Y'all want me to tell you what the test was? We did a wig that had no type of natural curl to it, and we did makeup lighter than my skin. With barely any contour, just to see if y’all would still make the comments. And you did. So now I know, it’s not about me actually…'She looks like this, she's trying to look like that.'" Of course, fans didn't buy the explanation, saying she only did it for attention and was probably "b*tthurt" from the negative reaction.

Bhad Bhabie's New Look Was Labeled
A few weeks after her controversial TikTok, Bhad Bhabie appeared on the cover of Contrast Magazine looking even more unrecognizable. "She went from blackfishing to Asianfishing," one tweeted. Some fans even said she looked like a mix of YouTubers James Charles and Nikita Dragun. The changes on her face look permanent. However, not long before the magazine feature came out, Bregoli said she'd never "get full facial reconstruction surgery [because] I don't even know how I'm gonna look when I get older."
"What's the point of my wearing make up if it don't make me look better? I'm only 18," she explained in a lengthy Instagram caption. "Only when I wear make up and/ or wigs y'all say I got surgery and compare it to pics of me at 13… no one else looks the same at 18 as they did 13 14 everyone has a glow up." Still, she admitted she "got 1/2 syringe of lip fillers a couple months ago, veneers and Sculptra and silicone in my butt." Frustrated about the speculations around her changing face, she added that she'd let everyone know once she gets work done on her face.

"When I do get my nose done I will b glad to let y'all know," she wrote. "But funny thing ab me is I'm scared as hell of being put under anesthesia so I would never even do that over some looks only if it was a life or death situation or something for my health." However, fans firmly believe that the rapper had plastic surgery this time. They even said she practically "changed her race." A Redditor wrote on a subreddit called Blackfishing: "She has completely embarrassed herself in that image but still denies she's trying to look like a black girl.. or poc... Like honey.. you can't blame the lightning on this one."
Bregoli has been a subject of multiple controversies alleging her of cultural appropriation. Accused of "wanting to be black," she clapped back in yet another offensive manner, telling her followers on Instagram Live, "Who would want to be Black? I don't understand that, I really just don't comprehend it." Bregoli never released another statement regarding her magazine cover. So fans presumed that she's sticking to her story of not going under the knife.
Interestingly, she dragged Lil Kim in April 2020 for the same issue. The internet star claimed on Instagram Live that the rapper "wears foundation." She said: "No disrespect towards her, but the girl wears foundation that's too light for her face. The girl went and got a nose job to have a smaller nose like white people. Like, y'all don't see that?" The Lady Marmalade hitmaker responded indirectly. She wrote on her Instagram Stories: "Stay home and stay safe and don't forget to disinfect. There's a lot of rodents running around with COVID-19." Classy.
