Hate Your Butt? Get The Pippa Lift

Ever had a spare twelve grand lying around and felt perplexed about what to do with it?

Look no further because the plastic surgeons of the United States have the answer for you.

The perfect butt!

And not just any butt — Pippa Middleton’s royal wedding butt.

Princess Kate’s little sister has sparked a wave of requests by American women asking their doctors to lift, suck, sculpt or plump their behinds just enough to make them look like Pip’s.

According to plastic surgeon Constantino Mendieta, in the past the most requested bottoms in the business were those belonging to J-Lo (naturally) and Kim Kardashian. But since Pippa stepped out in that dress, the furore surrounding her derriere has sent women in a different direction.

While it makes me a little sad that any woman would endure the emotional, physical and financial cost of procuring a bum they feel society accepts, it is particularly worrying that the newest backside on the block is such a small and perky one.

At least J-Lo and KK have a little junk in the trunk and encourage us to embrace curves. Mendieta explains:

• Both have tremendous curves and large buttocks. While lots of people love the overall shape of those women, many felt those derrieres were just a bit too big. But ever since the royal wedding, Pippa Middleton has become the new queen of the booty…People want to look sexy, elegant and petite.

Equating sexy with petite is something feminists, mental health experts and some members of the fashion industry have been trying to avoid for years. A shift in the idea of the ideal body, away from curvy and toward petite, is something we should all look upon with caution.
