LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA – Alabama Barker, daughter of Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and model Shanna Moakler, is addressing rumors of undergoing plastic surgery and other cosmetic procedures. Last week, she shared photos on Instagram which received over 250,000 likes, but also sparked divisive comments accusing her of having undergone surgery at a young age. In response, Barker defended herself, stating that she is natural apart from her lips and that she is naturally beautiful.
Barker, no stranger to online scrutiny, has consistently urged her followers to refrain from making unnecessary comments about her appearance. She has addressed getting lip fillers and has revealed living with an autoimmune disease and thyroid condition that sometimes causes weight gain. Her plea for privacy and understanding was emphasized when she expressed her discomfort with paparazzi purposely taking unflattering pictures for views.
Her determination to shut down the rumors and criticism continued when she shared a photo of herself posing in a thong on Instagram with a playful caption. Despite the online backlash, Barker remains vocal about her experiences and challenges, hoping to inspire others to embrace their natural beauty and to resist the pressures of societal standards.
In October, she even tagged an aesthetic practitioner in a TikTok video, praising them as the best in Los Angeles, secured in her assertion that she is happy with her natural self and any enhancements she chooses to make. Barker’s confidence and resilience in the face of intense scrutiny serve as a statement against the unrealistic standards of beauty imposed on young women in the public eye. With each post, she is boldly confronting the negative comments and false assumptions, taking control of her own narrative and advocating for self-acceptance.
