We have reached the bottom of the barrel. Actually, we broke through the bottom of the barrel a long time ago. Now we are just digging in the dirt of the latest **cosmetic doctor controversy**. The story to make me lose my lunch this week involves **Dr. Zayn Khalid Majeed**, a pop singer, and the absolute worst app on the planet.

Here is the **Troye Sivan news** in a nutshell. It is simple. It is stupid. It is exactly what our society deserves. **Dr. Zayn Majeed** went on **TikTok** to perform an unsolicited **celebrity face analysis**. He is a cosmetic doctor. That means he fixes faces for money. But he does not just fix broken faces. He fixes faces that are already fine. He creates problems so he can sell you the solution.

He decided to make a video about **Troye Sivan**. Troye is a young, famous guy. He looks like a pop star. Most people would say he looks fine. But not the doctor. The doctor looked at this singer’s face and saw a fixer-upper house. He saw a used car that needed new parts.

In the video, the doctor pointed out things on the singer’s face. He talked about his chin. He talked about his cheeks. He basically took a red marker to a human being. He treated a living person like a piece of meat on a butcher’s counter. He said, “Look at this. This is wrong. I could fix this.”

Why did he do this? Did he hate the singer? No. That would be too interesting. He did it because he wants you to feel bad about yourself. If he can find flaws on a famous, rich singer, imagine what he sees when he looks at you. He wants you to look in the mirror and see cracks. He wants you to open your wallet. It is a sales pitch. It is grifting. It is gross.

But then something happened that the doctor did not expect: A **Troye Sivan response**. Usually, celebrities ignore the rats nibbling at their ankles. But Troye did not ignore it. He commented. He said, essentially, “I love my face. Leave me alone.”

And just like that, the tough, smart doctor folded like a cheap lawn chair. The moment he got caught, he panicked. He realized he messed with someone who has millions of fans. He realized his business might get hurt. So, he did what everyone does in 2024 when they get caught being a jerk. He issued a **Dr. Zayn Majeed apology**.

This is the part that really makes me sick. The apology is never real. It is always a performance. The doctor got on camera and said he was sorry. He deleted the original video. He said he never meant to upset anyone. He said the magic words. He said he wants his content to have a “positive impact.”

Let’s stop right there. “Positive impact.” What a joke. You are a cosmetic surgeon making **TikToks** about other people’s faces. Your entire job is built on insecurity. Your bank account grows when people feel ugly. There is no “positive impact” in telling strangers their chin is weird. You cannot pivot to being a nice guy when your business model is vanity and shame.

This doctor claims he wants to be educational. He says he wants to help people. That is a lie. He wants to be famous. He wants likes. He wants clicks. He wants to be the cool doctor on the phone screen. But he flew too close to the sun. He picked a target that fought back.

Now, let’s look at the other side. **Troye Sivan** gets to be the hero. He gets to say, “I love myself.” The internet cheers. Everyone claps. “So brave,” they say. “So strong.” Is it? Or is it just two rich people fighting over vanity? One sells music and an image. The other sells needles and fillers. They are both part of the same machine. The machine that cares about how you look more than who you are.

The doctor says he judges faces based on “anthropology.” He uses big words to sound smart. He talks about bone structure like it is a math problem. He tries to make his insults sound like science. It is not science. It is marketing. It is a way to make you feel like your face is a math equation that you failed.

And now he is sorry. He is so, so sorry. He promises to do better. He promises to only make nice videos. Do you believe him? I don’t. I don’t believe any of them. He is only sorry that he got yelled at. If the singer had stayed quiet, that video would still be up. The doctor would still be counting his views. He would be planning his next video about some other famous person’s nose.

This is the world we built. We gave doctors cameras. We gave narcissists a platform. We turned medicine into a reality TV show. And then we act surprised when they act like clowns. The doctor is a clown. The apology is a joke. And we are the idiots sitting in the audience, watching it all happen, wondering why we feel so bad about ourselves.

Don’t feel bad for the singer. He is rich and fine. Don’t feel bad for the doctor. He will be fine too. He will wait a week, and then he will go back to selling insecurity. He will just be more careful about who he targets. He will pick on regular people instead of stars. And the cycle will continue. The meat grinder never stops. It just pauses to say “I’m sorry,” and then it keeps on grinding.
