Obsession with beauty in latin america

When visiting Buenos Aires, Argentina this summer, people constantly talked to me about how vulgar and ridiculous the tv shows were. Once they turned on the tv for me and changed the channel to the highest rated talk show I quickly saw what they were referring too. Every single woman on the show had some type of plastic surgery done. The people I was staying with quickly informed me of how butt implants are the top surgery in Argentina. There is clearly an obsession with perfection and beauty in this country. Poor Miss Argentina even died after having butt implants. Here is the article I read about her death.
