A young actor has died after undergoing a whopping 12 cosmetic operations over the course of a year in an attempt to look like BTS band member Jimin. Saint Von Colucci, 22, died early Sunday in a South Korean hospital due to complications from his latest procedure.
This exclusive has been given by the British media Daily Mail and there it is explained that he would have spent a total of 220,000 dollars (about 200,000 euros) to make such an eccentricity.
It has been his representative, Eric Blake, who contacted the Daily Mail and explained the details. The alleged last visit of Vont Colucci to the hospital was on Saturday, where he had to remove some implants in his jaw because they had caused an infection.
“It’s very tragic and unfortunate,” reported Blake, after which he added that his client “didn’t like” his “very square jaw and chin” and thought he was “too wide.” Insecurity about his appearance and especially “his face” was what led him to immerse himself in this maelstrom of cosmetic operations.
Among his 12 operations were jaw surgery, a rhinoplasty, a lip reduction, a brow lift, implants, etc.
According to his representative, Vont Colucci had been working as an apprentice within one of the largest entertainment companies in South Korea. In addition, Blake also explained that Vont Colucci had filmed a Korean drama (Cogimar) to be aired in the United States where he played one of the main characters.
Is Saint Vont Colucci real? The networks doubt it
But did Saint Vont Colucci really exist? According to a press release dated January 28, 2022, the actor would debut as an actor and commercial model in Canada in 2015, information that could not be verified in any way. To make matters worse, there is no trace of Saint Vont Colucci on IMDb, which has set off alarm bells.
To say the least, there is no trace of him in social networks or on the Internet. Something strange if we are talking about a person involved in the entertainment sector.
Users were quick to grab a detective’s hat and magnifying glass to investigate, and soon found several interesting things. To begin with, the strange photograph of Saint Vont Colucci was passed through a website that determines whether an image is generated by artificial intelligence. After the analysis, the percentage it showed was clear: there was a 75% chance that the photo was created with a generative model (such as Midjourney, DALL-E or Stable Diffusion).
Some people are already saying that the news could also have been generated by artificial intelligence, but that is something we still do not know for sure.
