“Now I’ve gone on to win many Best Breasts trophies. And every time I accept one of those, I thank [plastic surgeon Charles Gruenwald] by name. Best twenty-two hundred dollars I ever spent. I also named my breasts because I love them so much. Thunder and Lightning. I’ve had the same implants since 1999—they’re almost old enough to drink.”
–Stormy Daniels, from “Full Disclosure” (2018).
