After browsing daily blogs, as I normally do everyday once I get home from school or work I came across this article. PLEASE READ IT AS IT IS RATHER SAD, yet disturbing! Goes to show how much of an impact society really has on people. Just thought I'd share this article with you as it was an eye opener to me on how FAR one would go to look like a celebrity. Below is the article about the 20 year old died from butt implants(which was taken from SANDRAROSE.COM)
A 20-year-old British student is dead after flying to Philadelphia with friends to undergo a “must-have” butt injection procedure.

In Hackney, East London, where Claudia Aderotimi was born, butt injections are illegal. They’re illegal in the U.S. too, but authorities here have done nothing to stop the unlicensed, dangerous practice.
Claudia and her friends thought it would be a simple procedure. What could go wrong? The “clinic” was in the shadow of a big city hospital — the same hospital where she was eventually pronounced dead.
But Claudia knew something went wrong hours after the operation when she felt horrible pains in her chest. She was rushed a block away to the hospital, where she died at 1.32 a.m. on Tuesday.
The “clinic” where Claudia and her friends went chasing their dreams was inside a seedy Philadelphia motel room. The unlicensed street technician is still being sought by police who are certain she didn’t use sterile technique. They are also certain she didn’t use medical grade hydrogel or silicone, which are difficult to obtain outside of a hospital setting without a doctor’s order.
Claudia had aspirations of appearing in music videos, like her idols, the video vixens who advertise their talents on Twitter.com. Claudia thought that in order to qualify to appear in rap music videos today, she must have a butt as big as Nicki’s or Esther Baxter’s or Keyshia Dior’s.
All Claudia wanted was a few injections to fill out the curves that she already had, she told friends. She thought the butt shots would make her famous, heartbroken pals say.
