TAMPA (CBS Tampa) – Many news sites, including this one, were abuzz after a woman claimed to have undergone plastic surgery to have a third breast implanted.
The Tampa massage therapist, who calls herself “Jasmine Tridevil,” claimed she added a breast because she no longer wanted the attention of men.
But it appears she actually was trying to get attention… by making it all up.
Tridevil’s real name is Alisha Jasmine Hessler, reports the Internet mythbusting site Snopes.com. It also notes no independent photos of her additional breast can be found. In other words, all evidence comes from her social media and Youtube accounts.
She explained that she had bound her doctor to a non-disclosure agreement. But many plastic surgeons say such a procedure would be incredibly painful, take a long time, and would be an ethical violation for any doctor who performed the surgery.
WTSP-TV obtained a copy of an incident report from Tampa International Airport where a woman named Alisha Jasmine Heller reported missing luggage last month.
Among the contents she listed as missing was a “3 breast prostheses.” Her luggage was returned after police busted two baggage handlers for stealing suitcases.
