She&#8217;s\u00a0the woman who became globally known for her quest to have the world\u2019s most extreme breasts. First appearing on My Strange Addiction in the early 2010s, Lacey shocked audiences when she revealed her obsession with breast augmentation, a mission that took her to a then-unheard-of size L-cup, and eventually all the way up to QQQ.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"694\" data-end=\"1242\">While others on the show battled compulsions like <a href=\"https:\/\/realitytvshrine.com\/2025\/08\/06\/woman-addicted-to-eating-car-seat-foam-stopped-for-nine-months-for-one-vital-reason\/\">eating couch cushions<\/a> or sleeping with a hair dryer, Lacey\u2019s addiction was her body. She openly admitted that her obsession with plastic surgery stemmed from a desire to look like a &#8220;cartoon.&#8221; This was a persona she believed would not only bring her attention, but also financial security for her six children. Her story struck a bizarre but emotional chord with viewers, revealing a woman who had once struggled as a single mom and waitress, now reinventing herself through cosmetic procedures.<\/p>\n<h2>Meet Lacey Wildd<\/h2>\n<p>Speaking on TLC&#8217;s My Strange Addiction, Lacey introduced herself as a mom of six and said: &#8220;It&#8217;s taken me a quarter of a million dollars to build the most extreme plastic body in the world.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She continued: &#8220;I&#8217;m not obsessed with just one part of my body. I&#8217;m obsessed with the entire look. I&#8217;ve had 29, maybe 30 surgeries.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lacey detailed how she&#8217;d had 12 breast augmentations, two tummy tucks, three Brazilian Butt Lifts, &#8220;illegal&#8221; silicone injected into her lips, three full body lipos, and &#8220;an internal corset.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t get high when I have surgery,&#8221; she added, &#8220;But, I do get a little thrill thinking I&#8217;m going to wake up different.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I know that when I walk in a room, everybody swallows the canary&#8230;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>Lacey&#8217;s journey has been a long one<\/h2>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Mother Wants To Increase Her Breasts To A Size QQQ | My Strange Addiction\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BXesa-0cQ4A?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>During the TLC show, Lacey delved into her wardrobe and explained how her journey started. She said: &#8220;The first bra was a double A, 32AA, and this one&#8217;s triple L.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I started out as a little tiny stringy slim brown headed flat chested little girl to a big-breasted, big-lipped cartoon character Lacey Wildd.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The TLC star used to be unable to sleep on her stomach due to her breast size. Lacey explained she slept with a &#8220;pillow between her breasts,&#8221; adding: &#8220;And then I have to put it between my knees to align my spine. I have four or five pillows I sleep with.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The TLC star said she could no longer &#8220;see her toes or feet.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She still didn&#8217;t feel she&#8217;d achieved the &#8220;perfect figure&#8221; and wanted to increase her breast size to QQQ during My Strange Addiction, despite her kids&#8217; concerns.<\/p>\n<h2>Life after My Strange Addiction<\/h2>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CdbOpLHO5-Y\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

She underwent dozens more surgeries, including multiple breast augmentations, liposuction, and full-body lifts. By 2014, she had spent over $250,000 on plastic surgery.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2132\" data-end=\"2536\">In a surprising twist, Lacey rebranded once again in 2016, this time stepping into the world of psychic mediumship under the name Ghostbusty. Combining her over-the-top appearance with spiritual services, she claimed to connect with spirits, all while flaunting her signature look. She began doing public readings, launched a website, and added yet another chapter to her ever-evolving identity.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2538\" data-end=\"2808\">According to <a href=\"https:\/\/thecinemaholic.com\/my-strange-addiction-where-are-they-now\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Cinemaholic<\/a>, the pivot to spirituality gave Lacey a new sense of purpose, even if it raised a few eyebrows. She didn\u2019t back down, Ghostbusty was here to stay.<\/p>\n<h2>Lacey suffered a health scare<\/h2>\n<p>https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/watch\/?v=473943750212425<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2868\" data-end=\"3289\">With LLL size breasts, the extra weight on Lacey&#8217;s chest caused a pectoral &#8220;muscle and vein to rip, causing her to undergo immediate surgery,&#8221; per <a href=\"https:\/\/thecinemaholic.com\/lacey-wildd-botched\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Cinemaholic<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2868\" data-end=\"3289\">&#8220;Having realised that her breasts could be gone for good, the television personality decided to have pig skin implanted into her body. Ultimately, the doctors placed pig skin around the edges and underneath her chest to secure her 21-pound breasts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3291\" data-end=\"3519\">But it seems she continued with her addiction. Lacey appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/567685\/botched-before-and-after-lacey-wildd-s-mega-boobs-franken-tummy-and-much-more-see-the-pics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Botched<\/a> with Dr Nassif and Dr Dubrow. The two experts discouraged her from increasing her breast size any more.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3291\" data-end=\"3519\">However, Lacey wasn&#8217;t stopping there. She explained how she began getting surgeries at 24 years old, and finally achieved QQQ breasts, per an episode of In The Know: My Beauty Obsession.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3291\" data-end=\"3519\">&#8220;I&#8217;ve had over a million dollars of surgery now&#8230; I&#8217;ve had a brow lift, two rhinoplasties, a mini facelift, I&#8217;ve had my eyes made bigger, I&#8217;ve had my chin filled in, I&#8217;ve had 19 boob jobs&#8230; but with revisions, it&#8217;s been about 37&#8230;&#8221; she added.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3521\" data-end=\"3695\">From Paula Thebert to Lacey Wildd to Ghostbusty, her story is one of resilience, reinvention, and unapologetic extremes. Love her or loathe her, it&#8217;s safe to say, you definitely remember her.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><i>For all the latest reality TV cast member news, scandals, gossip and updates \u2013
