Not sure why, but I always find it fascinating when a celeb shows up with a completely different look. Be it through plastic surgery, or a new lifestyle, or weight gain/loss, it just amazes me when it happens. Seems to me that their appearance is part of their 'brand' and changing that would simply hurt them professionally, the same way Pepsi changing their logo was a risk.

But, yeah, sort of starting this thread with the hope of seeing a number of examples of this....the obvious ones are there (Lohan, Jameson, Carrot Top, Vanilla Ice) but so many have gone through this sort of metamorphosis, like "reality TV star" Jodie Marsh:

OMG

Happy Halloween, everyone

 

[wenis]

what. the. fuck.

 

[this guy]

What in the bronze fuck...?

 

[CrankyJay]

OMG

Happy Halloween, everyone

LOL

 

[SoilBreak]

MY GOD

 

[AgentChris]

WHY. She looked kinda hot before.

 

[Leona Lewis]

From annoying rebellious teenager to classy (but still talentless) beauty.

 

[CrazyDude]

Why is her body made out of gold?

 

[Kaizer]

Brings a whole new meaning to "gold digger".

 

[MikeMyers]

Michael Jackson.

From Motown Star to JPOP star

 

[Medalion]

Lindsay Lohan?

 

[dvdjamm]

Meg Ryan

 

[mjc]

Why would she do that? She looked super hot before...ugh.

Wow, I know it's mostly just the hair, but that middle look really doesn't work for her at all...like an awkward transitional phase.

without the weird hair or gunk on her,.

 

[Count Dookkake]

Al Jolson.

 

[TheHakku]

OP nails it.

...Christ. The woman on the left is so freakin' hot.

 

[AgentChris]

Nikki Cox. She was so beautiful

Judging from the tats, that's a lot more recent. Granted, the shot I'd posted was either just before or after competition, which is sort of unfair, but still shows a drastic change to her general appearance.

The one everyone always posts: Nikki Cox.

Before:

After:

 

[Strike]

Mickey Rourke and Lil Kim

 

[Zaptruder]

Google up Sasha Richardson - yes, that is the pornstar Sasha.

It's obviously NSFW.

 

[OpinionatedCyborg]

Nikki Cox. She was so beautiful

on her left is Jay Mohr, who's gained 500 lbs

 

[dvdjamm]

Mickey Rourke

 

[AMUSIX]

This one's a little weird to me. I'm all for him losing the weight, but he just doesn't look proportionally correct now...as if the weightloss was anything but natural...

and this one, for that matter...though his looks far more natural...

 

[Stairs]

J Allard.

 

[MC Safety]

What in the bronze fuck...?

I think the idea is that if you do any kind of bodybuilding competitions, the judges frown on tattoos. The woman probably has to brown up enough to passably hide her many tattoos.

And I'll never understand why beautiful women choose to roll the dice with plastic surgery, especially since there are so many cautionary tales.

Amusix took my second one with Jonah Hill, good work.

 

[B.K.]

Mickey Rourke

But wasn't his change the result of a motorcycle accident and getting a horrible plastic surgeon after the accident? That's a lot different than someone disfiguring themselves on purpose.

Incredible how someone can look unchanged for 14 years.

Re: Nikki Cox - anorexia + plastic surgery is a helluva looks-ruining combo

Wait, I don't get it.

It's already 7:05 here...how am I supposed to watch the 4:30 news now???



also, many of these have nothing to do with age....

 

[Barrage]

Nikki Cox is a tragedy.
