People are getting plastic surgery to look more like Melania Trump

Never meet your heroes, it can only lead to disappointment. But what about looking like them?

People changing their appearance to closer resemble the people they look up to or idolise is nothing new. We've had human barbies, Kim K superfans with leaky lips and an 'alien mess'.

But this may the first story you've come across of a woman trying to appear more like America's First Lady Melania Trump.

According to a Houston-based plastic surgeon demand for 'Melania makeovers' is growing.

Dr. Franklin Rose, who has previously helped women look more like First Daughter Ivanka Trump, said via a press release:

I have had many women visit my office wanting the ‘Ivanka Look’ and so it’s not really surprising to see women now requesting to look more like Melania, who is simply gorgeous.

Claudia, who features in the video above added: “I want to feel like the First Lady that I know I am inside.”

Feeling like a First Lady will apparently involve a breast reduction, rhinoplasty, a tummy tuck, liposuction and various other procedures and injectables.

Dr Rose added:

This might be the 1000th very, very beautiful patient that I’ve operated on; in an odd way, it’s sort of more enjoyable because you can take the beautiful into the hyper-beautiful.

Let's hope that Claudia has practised a few of these signature Melania moves:
