It looks like Nicole Richie, the famous actress, celebrity, and daughter of Lionel Richie, has gone under the knife to have a breast augmentation.  TMZ.com recently reported that the new mommy was showing off her new body and breasts at her husband’s event last night.

It is common for women’s breasts to become larger when they are pregnant, and even larger when they breast feed.  But as TMZ suggests, the before & after pictures above may be telling us the story of breast implants and not mother nature.

Christina Aguilera, the famous pop singer and recent mommy, is rumored to have had all kinds of cosmetic surgery procedures, including a breast augmentation that boosted her from A cups to C cups. Although the recent pictures of Aguilera’s breasts during and following her pregnancy look quite close to D cups.

She has denied the rumors and claimed to have never gone under the knife. Awfulplasticsurgery.com has pictures, shown below, that would indicate otherwise. As you can see in the photos of Christina Aguilera’s breasts below, there is a ripple which is commonly found with implants and capsular constructure.

Did she? Didn’t she? It isn’t 100% clear from the before & after pictures nor has she confirmed that she’s had breast implants.

As the photos above show, Gwen Stefani had very small A cup breasts but has been seen recently with larger breasts as shown in the photo on the right. A definite change in size as she was very small before.

Aside from Janet Jackson at the Super Bowl, no other actress & celebrity has received as much attention surrounding her breast implants as Tara Reid. Then again, not many show them off as much as Reid.

As the above before & after pictures show, Tara Reid had a boob job a few years ago but the procedure was not a success. In 2004, a wardrobe malfunction (see in the picture below) gave the world an up close view of Tara’s breast implants with visible scars and oddly shaped nipples.
