Lucas Gonzalez, known for his work as part of the musical duo Andy y Lucas, has recently found himself at the center of media attention following his comments about his appearance and his plans for future cosmetic surgery. During his time on the Antena 3 program 'Y ahora Sonsoles,' Lucas made the surprising announcement about his upcoming nose surgery, indicating he would be going under the knife after experiencing dissatisfaction with previous surgical results.
"Mira, os voy a dejar una noticia. En abril no tenemos ni un concierto, me voy a operar la nariz, nunca he cobrado una exclusiva, pues ahora quien quiera verme la nariz me la va a tener que pagar," Lucas declared during the live interview, leaving host Sonsoles Ónega astonished at the frankness of his declaration.
This statement marks the latest chapter in Gonzalez’s struggle with public scrutiny of his appearance, particularly with his nose, which has been described as having features of “saddle nose” by Dr. Yomil Génere, who explains the condition as involving inward curvature of the nasal bone and cartilage. Many fans and viewers took to social media to voice their concerns and criticisms about Lucas’ recent public appearances, especially during the highly watched basketball Copa del Rey final.
During the performance, which has been critiqued as sounding subpar, the singer found himself under intense scrutiny. Lucas responded fiercely to the backlash, stating, "El que tenga un poco de sentido común sabe que son cuatro miserables que cuentan chistes en redes.” He lamented how online commentary can be often cruel, particularly when it impacts not only him but also his family, including his children.
This latest announcement came after Lucas had previously been evasive about his previous rhinoplasty procedure, claiming at one point, "Que yo no me he hecho nada en la cara, te lo prometo…" During his earlier appearance on the program 'El Hormiguero', he revealed he had undergone surgery but attributed the adverse results to his failure to diligently follow post-operative care instructions, which he admitted he neglected. "Ha sido totalmente culpa mía porque no hice caso a los médicos," Lucas stated candidly.
Since the announcement of his newest surgery, the conversation has shifted back to the state of his nose, sparking renewed debate on social media about his appearance and the value of aesthetic surgeries. Gonzalez announced his intention to head to Barcelona for this procedure, indicating he has consulted with specialists highly regarded for their work on cosmetic operations. Changing his surgical support system is part of the new approach he plans to take, which he hopes will yield satisfactory results.
Lucas has not only focused on his upcoming procedure but also has been vocal about the emotional toll the criticism has taken on him. It has reportedly affected his mental well-being, with the artist stating, "También he intentado no entrar en los temas de mi aspecto físico," showing a desire to rise above the negativity surrounding his looks.
The singer emphasized the genuine nature of his response to the criticisms, standing firm on how he views his performances—acknowledging he and his partner are simply putting themselves “in the line of fire” during these events.
While the discussions of his nose surgery and performance continue, Lucas remains grounded, illustrating resilience amid the pressures of fame and the scrutiny of public opinion. He expressed his intentions to follow medical advice thoroughly this time around, hoping to dampen the criticisms and concerns surrounding his appearance. ”Me voy a poner una máscara por la calle y nadie conseguirá una foto mía,” he stated, indicating his resolve to maintain privacy during his recovery.
Lucas' endeavor to navigate fame, aesthetics, and public scrutiny continues as he prepares for this significant step. Whether this surgery will help mitigate the wave of criticism he faces remains to be seen, but it's clear the singer is ready to take proactive control over his image and well-being.
