Vera maintains that she drove a debate about a sensitive topic and does not think it was insensitive to mislead the public.
"It's like most people wanted it to be true. Why didn't you think it was insensitive to laugh about it.
"I have been in the industry for almost 10 years and I have grown thick skin. I know how to deal with haters. Initially, I used to cry a lot but at some point, I started liking it," she said.
Adding: "It was not all play...there are some people who go for such surgeries and they find themselves in the hands of the wrong doctors. I think it made people understand these things fail. Make sure you get an outstanding surgeon. I was just putting the word out there."
After directing followers to her channel for the supposed main part of her surgery, Vera released a song 'Popstar' that has over 450,000 views already.
She said her husband Brown Mauzo was instrumental in the project as he assisted her in recording the song and was her cheerleader throughout.
Vera, whose daughter Asia will turn 1 on October 20, 2022, says motherhood has transformed her, and she has managed to conquer all her fears. She adds that she is ready for more experiences.
"My biggest fear becoming a mum was giving birth. When I thought about the labour process, I wondered whether I could do it. I kept postponing it.
"Then I realised there is a way you can give birth and avoid the whole pain process. I would say I love kids and the fact that I had a good experience with Asia, I feel like I am ready for more experiences."
