Nikki Exotika Changed Her Looks With Surgery

Before the 90 Day Fiance star changed her looks with more surgery than even Darcey Silva could wish for, she wasn’t exotic at all.

One of the times that Nikki Exotika felt devastated was after Igor claimed that she came across as having “man vibes.” It came during the Tell-All, and he said, “When I feel man’s vibes, I tell…If she learned to behave more like a lady, everything would probably be good between us.” But the latest discussion on social media focuses on her when she was in a man’s body.
