14 DAY TRIAL // Earlier this year, a 23-year-old man working as a makeup artist and moonlighting as a social media model / celebrity, Jordan James Parke, made international headlines by coming out with his Kim Kardashian obsession. He’s spent a fortune so far on plastic surgery in an attempt to replicate the reality star’s look.
In reality, he’s beyond that: Parke’s lips look as if he took the infamous #KyleJennerChallenge… and kept at it for days in a row. As per his own admission in the video below, he is also so filled with Botox in the face that he can hardly move it at all.
Parke does new reality show Botched
E! has a new plastic surgery disaster series called Botched, now at its second season. It focuses on Dr. Terry Dubrow and Dr. Paul Nassif helping people who have had botched operations get back to “normal” and get a boost of confidence.
However, every once in a while, the show also features “celebrity” guests who try to get free work done, or at the very least a free round of publicity. Parke falls in the former category.
The video below is his introduction for the latest episode of the show, which aired this week. Not shown in it is what happened after he met the doctors, which pretty much consisted of them being shocked beyond belief and Parke insisting he didn’t want to downsize. He just wanted to go bigger.
He was turned down.
A years-long obsession with Kim Kardashian
In the introduction, Parke explains that he got his first lip intervention a couple of years ago. At the time, he still wanted something natural-looking, and had specifically asked for a bit more volume and definition.
A while later, he became fixated on Kim Kardashian, but at the same time, he decided he would not stop getting work once he had achieved a resemblance to the reality star.
His face is so pumped with fillers and Botox that he has no more mobility, and his lips are occasionally nearly busting from fillers, even leaking at the corners. Parker thought he could get that fixed while retaining their current size, or even get them larger.
Dr. Dubrow offered to inject him with more natural-looking fillers that would bring down his lips, but Parke refused. Meanwhile, Dr. Nassif explained to him that, if he did another nose job, he would have to breathe solely through his mouth because the airways would become too narrow to be of actual use.
Parke must have been disappointed to be turned away.
