NuvaRing Gossip & Rumors
LL: I'm Steroid and Surgery Free

From Jeff Davidson's Sound Bytes blog

38-year-old LL Cool J still has the looks of a twenty-something.  His sculpted abs are nearly as famous as his rhymes. But, some have accused the Long Island born rapper of cosmetically or otherwise enhancing his appearance.  In an interview with Ebony magazine, LL hits back at the haters:

"There have been a lot of questions, a lot of speculation. To be real frank, there are so many people speculating over what they think that I am doing. Is he doing steroids? Did he get plastic surgery?" he says. "It speaks more about the people who are making comments than it does about me. It tells me that they cheat and they're cheaters. They are not willing to make the sacrifices necessary, and go through the pain necessary, in order to get in the best shape they can possibly be. So they don't believe I would be willing to do it either. So it is really more about their weakness, and less about mine. It doesn't make me feel anything other than that it is unfortunate that people are weak like that. They are weak. It points out their flaws."

Come on now...you know you don't mess with no LL!  The entire interview is in the July Ebony and LL is on tour now in support of his latest release "Todd Smith."

3. Re: LL. For sure. I truly believe that most of the people who assume that everyone who is in shape or look great because they have taken good care of themself has had plastic surgery, or has taken some kind of "magic" potion are the weak haters, overeater, drug abusing, no exercising fatsos. They just don't have the ability or strength to take care of themself, therefore, they assume that if someone is in shape they have had plastic surgery, because there is just no way that exercise and healthy living can make you look HEALTHY. Total Haters!!

5. His ass had surgery......good surgery, at that. And to call other people cheaters for saying so? LL......You strung your wife along for years, through your "sex addiction" and everything. I'd rather be called a cheater than live it....

7. As someone who has used steroids I believe LL is on the "juice". He has got the look. Anyone who has spent time in the bodybuilding world knows who is natural and who is not just by the look.

12. If I were rich and famous, I would look good too, without the use of steroids. I would have my own gym, my own personal trainer, and my own chef. My job would be to work on looking good, not getting up every morning to commute 30 miles to my $15per hour job.

13. I'm 41 and I can eat three Big Macs in one sitting. Therefore LL is on a combination of Nicorette and Paxil. And one time I licked a girl's eyeball.
