Leah Messer has come a long way since she first appeared on her 16 and Pregnant episode. Wait, that might be an understatement. Leah Messer has come an incredibly long way since her first appearance on the show.
At one point, she was a confused teen, was rumored to be an addict, and fans were genuinely concerned about the safety and health of her three daughters. Now, she seems to be on the straight and narrow and is even hyping up for a book release.
But that doesn’t mean that Leah Messer is totally perfect. She still makes mistakes, just like all of the Teen Mom stars and the show’s viewers. The big difference? All of Leah’s mistakes get broadcast to millions of people a week!
The cast members have a long history of getting somewhat questionable procedures done to change their appearance. Some of the stars refuse to admit they’ve had surgery, while others are happy to let their surgeons broadcast the entire procedure via Snapchat. Leah falls into the first category: even though fans are pretty sure she’s had work done, she isn’t very open about it.
But fans were shocked in a different way at Leah’s recent appearance on an episode of Teen Mom 2. In fact, it didn’t take long before the image of Leah began rapidly circulating around the internet, with fans asking: what happened to Leah’s face?
“As a professional makeup artist, I just can’t deal with this,” wrote user Shannybby on reddit, sharing an image of Leah’s makeup during a recent Teen Mom episode, when she and Kailyn Lowry were preparing for an event. During the scene, Kailyn opened up about a death in her family, but fans were more interested in Leah's look!
“Who the hell did they hire for glam that day? Poor Leah, I wish they would’ve shown how Kail ended up looking.” And they’re not the only one who was confused.
“I just watched this and my husband was doing work on his laptop when this scene was happening. He stopped what he was doing and said, ‘Whoa, what is going on with her face?’ I laughed so hard,” wrote user Bluesfordaze. User BMike2855 agreed, “I thought something was wrong with the color on my TV. Guess it was fine.”
User junglegymion wrote, “Uhhhhh I’m really confused by this.... How on earth could this person think this looks good and how was she hired? I feel bad for the makeup artist rn.”
This isn’t the first time that Leah has gone under fire for her appearance. At last year’s Teen Mom reunion, fans were convinced she was debuting new plastic surgery!
Leah looked stunning in a lavender ensemble, and appeared healthier and happier than ever. In fact, Leah looks so different than she did just last year that fans were curious if she had gotten cosmetic surgery!
“Is it just me or does Leah’s face look really different? I can’t say what it is exactly though,” wrote Twitter user @AshGray23.
User @itsCarisa agreed, “Leah looks so good. She looks different not sure what it is. Either way she is still pretty.”
User @BeautyfulMissy wrote, “Leah looks like she had some work done on her face.”
But Leah didn’t let those rumors roll for very long. She tweeted, “The fact that you guys seriously think I’ve had some kind of plastic surgery... The skincare line I use is pretty phenomenal tho.”
She took to Instagram to address the rumors as well. "The fact that so many STILL think I've had plastic surgery [facepalm emoji]. I'm not opposed to some great boobs, but no... #wtf #iwontcaretotellya #nope #notatall."
