Weeks after Drake faced skepticism on Instagram over the legitimacy of his abs, rapper Big Sean finds himself tangled up in the same rumor mill. When fans speculated that Drake’s chiseled muscles in a June 28 Instagram post were less related to hard work at the gym and more thanks to ab implants, courtesy of an adept plastic surgeon, fans quickly started to name other rappers they suspected of going under the knife. Their new target: Big Sean. (Abdominal implants are a cosmetic procedure that inserts silicone implants into the midsection to provide a shortcut to a six-pack.) Fitness influencer Blake Sanburg (@thenutritionnarc) fed into fan theories by uploading a July 7 video analyzing the 37-year-old rapper’s physique, posing the question, “Are Big Sean’s abs real?” The rapper quickly shut down the guessing game and jumped in the comments to set the record, writing, “Bro, unfortunately mine are real lol.... I just happen to look like a chewed up tootsie roll when im [sic] outta shape lol.” Though the rapper shouted out the “fake ab community,” he made it clear that he is not part of the club, ending his response with, “I only have to say something because this s**t is getting way out of hand. 😂”
