Steve-O, the renowned “Jackass” star, has always been known for his outrageous stunts and pranks. Now, at 50, he’s planning to take his antics to a whole new level by getting breast implants. This isn’t just a fleeting thought; Steve-O has seriously considered the idea and is ready to go under the knife for the sake of comedy.
In a recent appearance on the “X5 Podcast,” Steve-O revealed his plans to undergo breast augmentation. He explained, “I came up with the idea a few years ago to get a boob job and just film a bunch of legitimately funny hidden camera pranks with me in disguise, in various disguises, and then revealing who I actually am, and just funny endurance stunts, and whatever.” The idea of actually undergoing surgery for a prank has him particularly excited. “I’ve been so particularly in love with that idea because the comedy, the opportunity for comedy I believe is absolutely there, and it’s like the quintessential Steve-O – that level of commitment,” he added.
Steve-O is no stranger to body modifications. He has numerous tattoos and piercings, and he sees this breast augmentation as an extension of his art. “Body modification has been part of my f**king deal,” he said. “It’s been a lane in my art since the beginning. And this level of commitment to this bit, how nuts it is – I believe in it, and I’m gonna go ahead and do it.”
Despite the extreme nature of this stunt, Steve-O has no intention of keeping the implants permanently. He plans to have them for a maximum of two months before getting them removed. He has already consulted with doctors about the procedure and has been reassured that there will be no lasting damage to his body. “I spoke with the doctors, and I said to them candidly, ‘The one thing I’m really freaked out about, and bummed out about, and would back out of this over, is if I’m just gonna be a mess afterwards,’” he explained. “You know, it’s going under the muscle, and the doctors are completely unfazed, like, ‘Two months, it comes out, absolutely no issue.’”
Steve-O’s commitment to his craft is evident in his willingness to undergo such a drastic procedure for the sake of comedy. He believes that the potential for humor is immense and that this stunt will be a significant addition to his repertoire. “I’ve always been a body modification guy, like with my back tattoo, with my butt piercing — body modification has been part of my f**king deal, it’s been a lane in my art since the beginning,” he said. “And this level of commitment to this bit, how nuts it is — I believe in it.”
The comedian is aware that his decision might attract criticism, but he remains undeterred. “In the spirit of gone too far like getting a boob job [is a] nuclear move,” he said. “Like all kinds of people are going to just f**king hate on it like crazy and so many people are going to know about it that I’m just like kind of looking at it like a numbers game.” Despite the potential backlash, Steve-O is confident in his decision and believes in the comedic value of the stunt.
Steve-O’s announcement has already generated a buzz among his fans and followers. On Instagram, he shared a clip from the podcast interview, writing, “I said way more in this interview than I should have, but f**k it! My life is about to get properly crazy, link in bio.” The post received mixed reactions, with some fans applauding his commitment to comedy and others expressing concern.
This isn’t the first time Steve-O has made headlines for his extreme stunts. Last year, he spoke to The Independent about his Bucket List stand-up tour, which featured “forbidden” stunts that were “too hot for Jackass” – not only life-threatening but flagrantly illegal. In one video, he was put under general anesthesia while riding a bicycle. In another, a drug was injected into his spinal cavity using a four-inch needle, rendering him paralyzed while in a full sprint. Yet another saw him leap from an airplane, completely naked and strapped to another man’s back, while “furiously masturbating” to completion. “It’s safe to say I’m the only person that’s ever done that,” said Steve-O. “I love that I’ve done so many things that make me a pioneer.”
Steve-O’s willingness to push boundaries and take risks has made him a unique figure in the world of comedy and entertainment. His upcoming breast augmentation stunt is just another example of his dedication to his craft and his desire to entertain his audience in the most unexpected ways.
As Steve-O prepares for this next big stunt, his fans eagerly await the hilarious and outrageous pranks that will undoubtedly follow. Whether you love him or hate him, there’s no denying that Steve-O’s commitment to his art is unparalleled, and his latest endeavor is sure to be one for the books.
