"I treat my butt like a purse," she told Elle at the time. "It’s just there to enhance whatever else. And that’s why I paid for it, because it works all by itself." She also said, "I always wanted a really fat ass with less gym time."

Denying her decision had to do with outside pressure, SZA said, "I didn’t succumb to industry pressure. I succumbed to my own eyes in the mirror and being like, No, I need some more ass."

But in hindsight, SZA says she realizes she didn't actually "need" it.

According to the outlet, she had the procedure after being unsatisfied with her gym results, and SZA said that afterward, "I gained all this weight from being immobile while recovering and trying to preserve the fat."

"It was just so stupid," she said.

"But who gives a fuck?" the singer added. "You got a BBL, you realize you didn’t need the shit. It doesn’t matter. I’ll do a whole bunch more shit just like it if I want to before I’m fucking dead because this body is temporary."

SZA said she just feels the procedure "wasn’t super necessary," especially when she has other personal things to work on.

"I need to get my fucking mental health together," she stressed. "Not to say you can’t do those things simultaneously, just, for me, I realize wherever you go, there you’ll be."

At the same time, SZA, who's known for making conflicting comments, said she can also live with her results. "I love my butt. Don’t get me wrong."

"It’s something that I wanted," she said. "I’m enjoying it. I love shaking it.”
