Nicole Covone, the original baby mama of Lil Durk and the mother of his first child, recently sent the internet into a frenzy with a transformation post before and after. Left, she’s hugged up with young Durk during the days of the drill era, and right, she’s looking brand new with a polished selfie. It is either the gym, surgeons, or just glowing up with age; the transformation had everybody talking nonstop.
The Image That Shook the Timeline
The before-and-after was shared on socials and became immediately contentious. Organic and raw was the pre-fame Nicole, the young lady who was with Durk. New Nicole knows what angles work for her, what she is capable of physically, and what makes her secure. Fans immediately fragmented into two groups: those who are celebrating her glow-up and those who are criticizing each inch of it.
The Internet’s Messy Reactions
Twitter was inundated with reaction ranging from positive through downright skeptical.
That one tweeted, “Love that woman respect that girl forget that she’s a BBW let her be your world.”
Another defended her, writing, “She was never ugly.”
And then the shading: “All she did was get a bbl lol look at her hands and arms.”
Another couldn’t resist and tweeted, “BBL’s really be changing these ugly ass bitches lives.”
And of course, theDurk memes also appeared: “He needs a couple extra years in jail for that, I’ll never forget him lmaooo.”
When Twitter goes Dark
All of the comments weren’t humorous. There were some that went directly into offensive territory and revealed how nasty people get with a keyboard. One of the Tweets was, “Those kind of changes never matter. When you’re with a black man, automatically your value decreases for life and men of integrity won’t even touch you. It’s over for her.”
Others wished to become detectives: “The wrist tells the story. ain’t fooling me.”
It is a reminder that whatever a woman is busy with, the internet is going to find a way of outing her, mainly if she is married to a popular guy.
Nicole Covone Still Had the Last Laugh
At the end of it all, Nicole emerged victorious. She made people speak, brought her name back into the spotlight, and people saw her glow up. Natural, surgical, or a combination of both, she shines bright and beams proudly with a happy heart, and that is the real transformation.
People will argue online forever, but Nicole’s evolution proves one thing: women get to redefine themselves however they want, and if it ruffles feathers, even better.
