Who Is Anastasia Karanikolaou? New Details On Kylie Jenner's New Best Friend Known As "StassieBaby" On Instagram Who's Replacing Jordyn Woods
Anastasia and Kylie even have matching tattoos!
Instagram When the brouhaha with Jordyn Woods happened, many fans of the Kardashian clan thought that Kylie Jenner wouldn't find a new BFF to take her place. Yet almost immediately, she not only found a new bestie, that bestie got a "Stormi" tattoo in honor of Kylie's gorgeous daughter. Who is Anastasia Karanikolaou?
Someone in a high place is clearly looking out for Kylie Jenner because no sooner did she get rid of Jordyn Woods as her best friend, that she found the lovely Anastasia Karanikolaou to take her place. The blonde bombshell, who sometimes is referred to by her nickname of “Stassie Baby,” is causing quite the stir amongst fans of Keeping Up With The Kardashians and their various exploits.
Let’s look at what we know about this rising star.
1. Some fans think that Kylie is only hanging out with Anastasia Karanikolaou to make Jordyn Woods jealous.
According to Life & Style Magazine, there are a more than a few fans who think that “Stassie Baby” is only getting her head gassed up by Kylie Jenner because she’s a pawn in Kylie’s game. These fans believe that Kylie is trying to make her former best friend, Jordyn Woods, jealous of her newfound friendship.
“You do realize you’re being used as backup because she’s not with Jordy anymore, right?” said one fan, according to the outlet. “I see you have no friends, Kylie, since you ditched Jordyn. So, you have to try get cool with Stass again,” said another.
2. But Kylie and Stassie have been friends since they were children.
According to Babe Magazine, Kylie and Stassie have been friends since they were eleven years old. In fact, in one of the first episodes of Keeping Up With The Kardashians — when Kylie looked very different than she does today — Anastasia was one of the featured “Misfits” friends that included Pia Mia, Moises Arias, and Willow & Jayden Smith.
3. She’s had plastic surgery — and she’s not afraid to talk about it.
Some celebrities hide their plastic surgery — but Anastasia Karanikolaou is not one of them. In fact, she sat down with Harper’s Bazaar to talk about the plastic surgery she’d had to look as good as she does!
"I was very open to sharing — plastic surgery is nothing be ashamed of," she said to the outlet. "A lot of people think plastic surgery is only for cosmetic reasons, to change something you're insecure about. All my comments were saying, 'you're so insecure, you're so insecure,' which is the complete opposite. If I was insecure, I wouldn't have shown it. I wanted to show people that there's nothing to be ashamed of — that it's so common for girls to have this issue and you can do something to fix it."
4. She was rumored to be dating Tyga.
According to Hollywood Life, there were rumors going around that Anastasia Karanikolaou was going behind Kylie Jenner’s back to date her now-ex-boyfriend, thus breaking the so-called “bestie code.”
“However, the only evidence happens to be this photo [as seen below], where someone who looks like stassie appears to be spending time at Tyga’s CA home. In the below photo the blonde female is pictured alone in front of a pricey orange vehicle and a home, which appears quite similar to that of Tyga’s. A second photo shows the rapper posing in front of the same home and vehicle, pictured in female’s snap,” they wrote.
However, it later turned out that Tyga was dating a blonde stylist named Sivan, not Anastasia.
It looks like we’ll be hearing a lot more about Anastasia Karanikolaou in the near future!
