This one is so sad – let’s hear the story from The Daily Mail:
An ex-model who was obsessed with maintaining her youthful looks has died following surgery to make her buttocks firmer. Former Miss Argentina Solange Magnano, 38, was rushed to hospital with severe breathing problems after the cosmetic operation. The mother of eight-year-old twins died on Sunday from a blocked lung artery after spending three days in a critical condition in intensive care.
Her close friend and fashion designer Roberto Piazza said the brunette had become obsessed with her looks as her successful modelling career approached its end. He said: ‘Solange was a girl who had everything. She lived the life of a goddess, she was the envy of everybody. ‘Now she is dead because she wanted a slightly firmer behind.’She died because of her obsession with beauty.’
Her friend Mr Piazza said she had enjoyed a hugely successful career around the world but became obsessed with her looks after returning home to Argentina.
He said: ‘She was a fantastic model. When I first met her I thought ‘this girl is perfect’. ‘She had an amazing body, she wasn’t hyper-skinny, she had a voluptuous body, an exotic beauty. ‘In 1994 she participated in Miss Universe. She was very successful around the world, she worked a lot in Paris. ‘She was different, not a Barbie-like beauty. Until she started to become obsessed by her looks.’
Mr Piazza said Ms Magnano had surgery ‘to lift her breasts, which had drooped after she gave birth.’ Then she became obsessed with her buttocks. ‘She began to investigate because she wanted it to be firmer. She said she had cellulite,’ he said.
Her death has sparked a huge debate in Argentina about the rights and wrongs of cosmetic surgery. Around 50,000 cosmetic operations were carried out in the country last year, up more than 60 per cent in five years.
