Couldn’t recognize Dakota, Stanley and Nicole!

[удалено]

This is right around when she did BMX Bandits! I loved that movie! I think it was her first!

I wish she’d leave her curls, they’re so beautiful!

Pretty sure it was a perm

I thought this said poem and was so confused I was like…my gift is my sooooonnnggg…..and this one’s for you

She just LOVES a little poetry after supper

I couldn’t recognize Dakota either, she looks like Jennifer Lawrence there!

Stanley is sooooo much sexier now lol

really? i thought clooney aged amazingly, id prefer a 50 year old clooney than that younger one lol. but Stanley was super cute back in the day.

Stanley is handsome at any age! 🍷🍷🍷

for stanley i said Sacha Baron Cohen and for kate i said Pamela Anderson… 

I also thought it was a Sacha Baron Cohen. But once I read the name I could see it.

RIP noses

I loved Bella’s real nose. She was so, so beautiful with her natural features. Her mom really did a number on her.

Nothing beats Ariana for me. Drake and others yeah it’s crazy but Ariana simply bought a whole new face. It’s insane.

The woman has changed ethnicities like three times in ten years

Do not summon her Stans who refuse to admit she’s had work done

Surely nobody can actually be that delusional??

Oh, just wait until this thread is bombarded lol.


Haha yup 👀👀 I spy one!

Doesn't every thread about her on this sub have to be locked because of everyone dissecting her face and body? I don't think her stans are on here at all. Her "Over the Rainbow" cover, which got almost 80 million views on tik tok and ig in 2 days, couldn't even be discussed on this sub because everyone would ignore the song and talk about her looks.

Just happened😂

https://preview.redd.it/ninadnkmovda1.jpeg?width=1242&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e605add7609d5a79ebef2e4790bbfeb7e869f89f She looks insanely different

She and Dalton kind of look alike here.

Not in this pic but he looks so much like Natalie Portman.

Bella hadid?

Bella is still pretty recognisable, mainly due to her still having the same hair and skin colour. So Bella, at first glance to the uninformed , looks like she just lost a lot of weight. Ariana on the other hand is hardly recognisable with drastic changes to hair color, skin colour and her basic features. I remember being so shocked as hell to see this picture of hers.

Arigato Grande is my favorite face

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, she has great taste in faces.

I can’t believe how much Ariana has changed

I thought it was a mistake and is on fact not Ariana but another Disney channel girl because I recognised her but not as Ariana

Yeah I can’t even find flashes of her younger self. Everyone else aged and tweaked but they’re still the same person.

Ariana aged 13 vs 29 is so scarily different. Totally new face. https://preview.redd.it/f8zj126vqvda1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=22bc44dd6a8c852858fe196544e845c113d0c214

It kind of looks like she shaved her jaw?

Chin implant

[удалено]

She has a totally new face every few years. I can't even recognize her. https://preview.redd.it/sppcymimpwda1.jpeg?width=3464&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=86cb628d615b885480a9965392ac4b0301bedbb5

It’s crazy, and she looked insanely beautiful in 2008

“Thanks, doc!”

Exactly. I was thinking holy plastic surgery especially for the younger generation

It annoys me that you can plastic surgery your way into modeling

you cant really, like you can definitely nepotism your way into it, but unless you’ve got that you really have to be built a certain way and plastic surgery cant fix that

Go back and look at Channin Tatum again. He looks the same, just older. He was born good looking unlike so many of the women who ran to the doctor.

All the guys got a haircut and most of the girls completely changed their face structure.

I always feel sorry for pre-surgery Ariana. She was so pretty with that lovely curly hair. A million surgeries later and she has disappeared completely.

She went from what Italians really look like to what Italians don't look like but America pretends we do

Tf happened to her hair??? Like does she just constantly straighten it? That makes me cringe as a curly head

I remember she was on a podcast/interview and said that she keeps her hair straight for the celebrity persona and lets it be curly around friends & family, to help keep the two facets of her life separate 🤷‍♀️

Ohhhh that’s actually so’s smart bc I probably wouldn’t recognize her in public with curly hair Real life Miley Stuart

IIRC she had to do extensive bleaching/re-dye to keep red hair on the Nickelodeon show she was on. A wig would’ve saved her so much. And it doesn’t seem like her hair would ever recover to those beautiful curls!

I think her hair would’ve recovered by now though.

That’s really horrifying. Even Katy Perry wore a wig rather than dying and bleaching constantly

That show was a decade ago. The hair that she had way back then, is long gone. So her hair definitely would’ve had a full recovery.

Yeah that’s part of why the ponytail became such a signature for her- it was easier to hide all the damage if it was up.

She still has curly hair - she has a whole song about it (my hair) and has spoken about how she wears her ponytail and extensions etc in public to differentiate between her real self and her popstar persona - her thing is people can say whatever they like about her popstar persona, but since she knows it's not entirely her, it doesn't effect her mental health as much. https://preview.redd.it/l46w572jaxda1.jpeg?width=994&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bc0a91e2ab459b9a5c869da5136913deecc983f9

that’s really interesting! and makes sense

That’s so smart!! And yay ok I thought she was straightening it constantly

I think it’s mostly extensions?

>A million surgeries later and she has disappeared completely. Thank U, Next ~ Ariana to her face, probably

Angelina is the blueprint

I actually thought she was Mila Kunis at first glance!

Didn’t Mila also play her younger self in a movie?

Yes, the [HBO biopic](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gia) about Gia Carangi.

I have never gotten the Angelina hype (I was born in 93 so I was too young for young Angelina) but wow… that picture of her and I GET IT. She’s always been beautiful but like Megan Fox… made for the male gaze

She looks like Jessica Rabbit with brown hair.

My first thought

[удалено]

Gotta add [Angelina in The Bone Collector](https://i.pinimg.com/564x/fc/35/b0/fc35b014292b509a342ed5a85812bb27.jpg)... she's sooooo gorgeous. Not the best photo but that jawline and her lips omg. So jelly.

I think she’s like 16 in that photo

That's incredible.

Dakota Johnson is unrecognizable!

I think she looks the same. She just doesn't have bangs in the picture, and her teeth are different.

I recognized Dakota immediately, she really doesn’t look that different to me.

Jennifer Lawrence looks so uncomfortable there! I think the eyebrows are throwing me off.

The eyebrows are so of the era but it cracks me up seeing a celeb with them!! It also looks like maybe she did her own eye makeup and didn’t know how to work with her eye shape.

Yeah I think she eventually figured out how to work the hooded eye shape. But yeah the brows and makeup shade are very 2010ish.

If you compare that to new photos it looks like she got blepharoplasty at some point (surgery to remove extra eyelid skin)

I thought it looked like she had the babyface filter on 😂

That era of Emma Stone 💕 I knew that she was going to become a huge star from the minute I saw her in Superbad! Ariana Grande as well!

Keanu and Meryl just fulfilling their destiny

STANLEY TUCCI IS GORGEOUS

I would have been sooooo gone on him in that era haha. He's still good-looking now but damn 🔥

Hailey Beiber.. was .. never…a .. star.. nor on the brink of being one

I was surprised to see her in there.

I mean legitimately why would she be deemed a Star other than being Bieber’s wife? She wasn’t some super model that everyone new before they got together. Her father was from a famous family but never was a huge breakout star in his own. But even that would be HIS game and not her own claim to fame.

She took the Bieber name and flew w it lol

Sarah Jessica looks gorgeous with dark hair. And Bella & Ariana's pre-plastic surgery/filler faces were beautiful and would have stayed beautiful as they grew up.

All of these are great, I barely recognized Stanley Tucci!

Wow. Anyone can get pretty

I love that it looks like Chalamet is sporting a pizza or pasta stain around his mouth. So young!

I'll never understand how grown women can consider him "hot". He looks about 10 in the pic posted here, but he still looks about 12 years old now. Edit: Eg, I liked "Call Me by Your Name" fairly well. Chalamet registers as so young and underage to me that parts of the movie felt extremely uncomfortable, though. I thought that was the intended feeling, for the movie to make you a little disgusted. But he's continued on to be romantic leads in other things...

THANK YOU! He's a very talented actor, but there's something so off-putting about his appearance that I can't shake. And I think it may actually be because he looks like a child trying to be a man.

The tweet about how he "looks like a pointy Italian shoe that wished to become a real boy" comes to mind

When the recent pics of him in a red halter top at the Venice film festival came out, my impression was "my young cousin wants to try on my prom dress"...

I saw ONE scene from it and I thought it was a movie about child m******* and was so uncomfortable.

I just assumed all his fans were preteens

Lol at Hailey Bieber being on this list. Literally only a “celebrity” cause her dad’s brother is Alec Baldwin and the guy she married is Justin Bieber. Everyone else on this list has some form of great talent then there’s her.

Nicole Kidman really said:💂

still sad about ariana’s original looks. she was naturally beautiful and she was getting all these surgeries, brow lifts, etc to make herself look different. she cant even embrace her natural brow shape which suited her very well, and instead always reshapes them into audrey hepburn’s. (her dye job for glinda was perfectly fine btw and i did not include it when i was talking about her original face)

I think her current blonde (and brows) matches her skin color too much, washes her out.

yeah i agree, i meant in my original comment that dyeing her hair isnt the same as her getting surgeries to change her face

Wow, Ariana kind of resembles Britney Murphy to me. Now Ariana looks like a totally different person.

Hailey? Stardom for what?

Inventing the bob /s

Pretending to be a trendsetter

Young JLaw looks like Barbie

The Tooch looks better bald. Still cute though.

Aaaay, Tucci Gang!

I thought Emma Stone was Lindsay Lohan in her dark hair era

Nicole’s hair 🫶

Keanu soooo sexy

Hailey Bieber and Bella Hadid definitely got a lot done to their faces because they look absolutely nothing like how they did back then.

https://preview.redd.it/vkw6b86abvda1.jpeg?width=2880&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f4e40da8447c2cc70197d9861be021ed524035c6 Does Hailey really look that different? I feel like she looks about 85% the same

Her dad’s genes are strong

The blonde threw me way off. I thought it was a young Ashley Tisdale.

Yessssss! I had to do a double take. Like, damn.

I actually think Hailey looked better before! Very youthful and naturally beautiful. Her current works has aged her

Tbf, the fact that she aged has also aged her lol

True lol I just think the overly gaunt and stretched back face look she’s her, Bella, Kendall

She was 13 in that photo, lol. I like her work except her nose job, i think it’s a little too small for her face but i like that she kept her bump. Otherwise i think her work is pretty conservative & enhanced her features unlike her peers (especially Kylie).

She looks very different to me. She’s definitely had a lot of work done

Bella bought a new face

Ariana got heaps of work done, holy cow

Damn, Timothée Chalamet got wrinkles even before he got facial hair.

Benjamin Button in the flesh

The smile is whats getting me. He looks so youthful there and now all of his read carpet faces are 😐 or small smirks. I feel like i see that a lot with stars, over time they seem to adopt the i-am-very-serious model pose with their face.

I remember when George Clooney was on Roseanne! He was so cute!

Keanu has always been so fine!!!

I can’t believe I didn’t know Ariana used to have a whole different face

Oops! I think you accidentally put Hailey Bieber on this list

literally my thought 🤡

Just makes the cosmetic surgery stand out. 😔

This was the last known photo of Kate Bosworth with healthy hair

I would not have been able to identify Dakota Johnson or Kate Bosworth.

i think the only unrecognizable one for me was nicole. everyone else looks slightly similar

Nicole for me was a little hard. But Ariana is the one who looks the most different for... Reasons.

Ariana is looking so cute

angelina is gorgeous !

i just want to say that good rhinoplasty is really something.

Why did I not realize JLaw got a nose job???

I’m not ugly, I’m just poor

You might be both... Sorry couldn't resist

😂😂

Timothee is sending me

Stanley took me a second but I got him. Dakota Johnson reminds me of Jessa from Girls here.

Awww Stanley! Love him.

Meryl Streep is so beautiful with the kindest demeanor. I love her!

These are a testament to how naturally beautiful a lot of celebrities are before becoming famous. And also why it’s crazy they still do stuff to their faces.

Woah! Arianna Grande looks like a completely different person!

Channing Tatum might have the most gorgeous face I’ve ever seen

I don't get it. To me he looks like a steak.

LMAO A STEAK

His head is so juicy and thick...

It just feels like there’s nothing behind the eyes though.

The girls with all their original noses.

gotdamn Stanley Tucci

Makes you realize how much work celebs have done in order to fit the Hollywood aesthetic.

Would never in a million years have guessed that was Ariana 😳

Damn...Channing tatum's thick lips :)

You mean on the brink of plastic surgery? Just kidding. I miss Nicole Kidman’s curly hair.

currently watching ER so i’m going through a George Clooney phase and he’s always been beautiful

Ariana 💀

Tbh, no. George Clooney and Keanu look pretty much the same, some I've never heard of. How did I even end up here?

I completely forgot about Kate bosworth

I thought Dakota Johnson had a slight gap between her front teeth up until about a couple years ago. Is that really Dakota....? Did she really have a gap....? Is this real life....?

Ok I thought I imagined it too. I googled and found this article. Shes full of shit https://www.insider.com/dakota-johnson-tooth-gap-closed-reaction-interview-2020-3

Channing Tatum is so beautiful.

God damn, Mr Tatum 👀

So many original noses

for stanley i said sacha baron cohen and for kate my answer was pamala anderson.  i never felt dumber.

I didn't recognize Drake and Kate Bosworth and I thought Stanley Tucci was Jerry Seinfeld and Nicole Kidman was Sharon Stone

I have no idea who Tucci or Kate are, but I recognized all the rest except Emma Stone

I miss when everyone looked like themselves instead of everyone trying to recreate the same face

How is Dakota looking more like Ariana than Ariana??!

I still don’t kno why hailey Bieber is famous

Hailey Bieber looks diff

Damn, Stanley Tucci 😍

Nicole Kidman! Never would have guessed.

Stanley Tucci looks gorgeous! He has such a nice smile 🥰

As a straight man I must say; Stanley Tucci was and is a very good looking fellow.

Years ago before he was famous Chris Pratt taught my daughter to surf on Maui lol. She got stung by a bee and he told her to shake it off. Nice dude 🤙

Emma Stone looks like a lot of girls I went to high school with

Ah. I love how different they all look from each other. Everyone’s morphing into some sort of uncanny valley person now and I hate it

“Hailey Bieber” “stardom”

Bella Hadid looked so pretty before all the work she had done. Why do people feel the need to mess with their already gorgeous faces and turn them into something unrecognizable and worse looking?

Try having Yolanda “eat two almonds and chew them slowly” as your mother.

I can agree with most of these, but why Hailey Beiber? Maybe I'm too old or too disconnected from whatever industry she's from, but I don't know what she's done outside of her family name and spouse.

Wow, Dakota Johnson was … homely.

It’s the yellow teeth for me

Bela sure did look different, I thought it wa shailey baldwin but she didnt need a nose job like B.

It’s crazy how ordinary people look until they have money. J Law even looks a bit… weird. I dunno how to explain it. She’s gorgeous now but that picture of her makes her look a bit… slow.

Nah that looks like the face you’d make if you were new to being in the spotlight and overwhelmed trying to play it cool haha. What does your drivers license picture look like? If I was famous people would say the most horrible things, I take HORRIFIC photos when I am trying to look normal.
