Nene Leakes left fans stunned when she posted photos of herself on Instagram looking anything but herself, leading many people to speculate whether the reality star had a little help from a plastic surgeon to work on her new facial features.

From what Sandra Rose reports, Nene seems to have had some work done to her nose, which looks relatively smaller, a prominent brow ridge, a more defined chin, and the most controversial one of them all, skin bleaching.

Fans were quick to follow in Sandra’s footsteps as far as commenting on Nene Leake’s new look was concerned, stressing that the TV personality definitely looked lighter than usual and that there’s supposedly no denying that she’s had something done to her nose and her chin.

Leakes hasn’t responded to the claims that she’s had some significant work done to her face, which is all still very much alleged, but she did write the following in one of her photos that reportedly shows her new facial features.

“Me and @makeupbylatrice playing in makeup colors! Trying to find ways to keep ’em guessing!…I already know the makeup isn’t blended yet,” followed with a bunch of emojis.

By the look of things, Nene is saying more or less that her new look is all down to her makeup artist’s techniques.

It’s a given fact that certain makeup techniques can make one look completely different, especially if one was insecure about certain parts of their face, such as the nose that Nene Leakes’ fans say looks much smaller than before.

When looking back at some of Nene’s old photos, particularly those from the times she was arrested and posed for a mugshot, there’s certainly a difference from the way she looked back then to how she looks now.

Still, the mugshot photos are over 10-years-old, and furthermore, she’s not wearing makeup in those snapshots compared to the Instagram photos that people seem to think are showing the 48-year-old sporting a rather new look.

Rose ends her post, convinced that the procedures Nene has undergone are now making her less of the African-American woman she once was, writing, “Thanks to the wonders of modern day plastic surgery, NeNe is no longer a black woman.”

In related news, it is believed that Leakes will be making her return to Season 9 of Real Housewives of Atlanta later this year, with a reported $2.5 million paycheck. This will evidently make Nene the highest paid reality star in the franchise — and that’ll be on top of the ABC show, To Tell the Truth, which the socialite is reportedly hosting.

Leakes has also announced that she’ll be following in the footsteps of Kim Kardashian, Amber Rose, and Blac Chyna by launching her very own emoji app, which has already generated millions in revenue for Rose and Kardashian.

Nene is definitely keeping herself busy, and if a few surgical procedures are going to help her get the look that she wants, why shouldn’t she go for it, right?

But do you think that the recent photos Nene Leakes posted on Instagram are enough evidence to believe that the 48-year-old has had some work done?
