File this under: “WTF?!”
Former Jackass star Steve-O will soon go where no ‘Jackass’ star has gone before: the operating room, where he plans to undergo a breast augmentation.
On this week’s episode of the X5 Podcast, the 50-year-old revealed that, after coming up with the idea “a few years ago” to undergo the surgery and proceed to film hidden camera pranks with him in various disguises, he’s finally making it happen.
“I’ve been so particularly in love with that idea because the comedy, the opportunity for comedy, I believe is absolutely there, and it’s like the quintessential Steve-O– that level of commitment,” he said.
While Steve-O said he also plans to do some “funny endurance stunts” while rocking his new assets, he won’t have long to produce the content, as he will only have the D-cup implants for “max two months” before he has them removed, according to Page Six.
“I spoke with the doctors and I said to them candidly, ‘The one thing I’m really freaked out about and bummed out about and would back out of this over is if I’m just gonna be a mess afterwards,’” he said. “You know, it’s going under the muscle, and the doctors are completely unfazed, like, ‘Two months, it comes out, absolutely no issues.’”
Steve-O is so serious about going through with this latest stunt, that he’s already scheduled the surgery and claims it is being done by “the absolute best [plastic surgeon] in the world at giving men gorgeous boobs.”
While Steve-O admits the boob job bit is a “nuclear move,” he said he’s already set the bar “so f**king high” when it comes to these sort of stunts that it’s necessary for him to push it this far in order to raise the bar.
“Like all kinds of people are going to just f**king hate on it like crazy and so many people are going to know about it that I’m just like kind of looking at it like a numbers game,” he said, before acknowledging some of his other body modifications from over the years, including the massive self-portrait he has tattooed on his back, his butt piercing and more recently, a d**k tattoo on his forehead, which was done by Post Malone.

“ … Body modification has been part of my f**king deal, it’s been a lane in my art since the beginning,” he said. “And this level of commitment to this bit, how nuts is it– I believe in it.”
On Wednesday, Steve-O posted a clip from the X5 podcast to his Instagram, telling followers he “said way more in this interview than [he] should have, but f**k it!”
“My life is about to get properly crazy … ,” he added.
Though Steve-O is keeping the nonsensical stunts coming, he continues to take his sobriety very seriously. Earlier this year, he marked his latest milestone on social media.
“It’s truly nuts that I’m celebrating a full sixteen years of sobriety today,” he posted in March. “It all began when [Johnny Knoxville] organized an intervention which saved my life on March 9, 2008.
“I cannot even put into words how grateful I am for my recovery…” he continued. “Thank you, Captain!!!”

This stupid story aside, Jackass still makes me LMAO to this day – it’s a classic! Chris Pontius was always my fav.
That’s not comedy. That’s just attention seeking lunacy.
He is so weird
