Adrienne Bailon-Houghton<\/a> isn’t mad about plastic surgery speculation — in fact, the singer and TV personality appreciates the compliment.<\/span><\/p>\n Adrienne spoke with ET’s Deidre Behar backstage at the <\/span>2023 Daytime Emmy Awards<\/a> over the weekend, and addressed her recent response to a comment on social media that suggested she has “a great surgeon.”<\/span><\/p>\n “I think it was really hard for me to pull it together, being a mom, feeling like I didn’t have enough time for myself in that sense of going to the gym… and then seeing a comment like that, I was like, ‘I look good enough that someone thinks this was surgery? That’s amazing!'” she exclaimed with a laugh. “I was like, ‘I’ve done something right, that someone thinks I paid someone a lot of money to look like this.'”<\/span><\/p>\n In her response to the comment on Instagram, Adrienne wrote, “Wow \u2026 this is the greatest compliment. My surgeon is @nyricanmama,” and tagging her mom,\u00a0Nilda Felix, in the reply.<\/span><\/p>\n For Adrienne, she feels\u00a0the comment is reflective of the self-image issues that a lot of women in modern society struggle with.<\/span><\/p>\n “It just really [comes] down to the idea of women, we are so hard on ourselves, we beat ourselves up and to somebody else we probably look like a million bucks, or what they dream of, or what they think looks like plastic surgery or perfection,” she shared. “What they didn’t see was the cellulite that was in the back of that photo. But that’s just the reality of getting older and genetics. And I can thank my mom for that, too.”<\/span><\/p>\n Adrienne’s excitement has been bolstered by her role as a mom, as well, after she and her husband, Israel Houghton, <\/span>welcomed a baby boy, Ever, via surrogate in August 2022.<\/a><\/p>\n
