Naturally beautiful celebrities

Ones were born beautiful, and never needed the aid of plastic surgery. I've always thought Debbie Harry fell into this category—she had a face unlike anyone else, and looked stunning even without makeup.

Keanu Reeves was naturally perfect when he was young, for some reason he seemed to want to cover it up but it usually shone through, anyway. People just fell for him and hired him.

Emily Meade was born in 1989, R5—your point is invalid. She could be Debbie's granddaughter. Debbie existed on this planet for five decades before her.

Ava Gardner. A studio employee saw a photo of her, and realized that she was SO naturally beautiful and photogenic, that it was worth while for MGM to bring her out to California, and spend several years teaching her to act.

They did that back in the studio era, they searched the country and the world for faces the camera worshipped and adored. But of course the rise of plastic surgery put a stop to that, nowadays the studios tell anyone who wants to be an actor to have their face made into what the camera likes.

Actually, Greta Garbo needed a little work to transform herself into The Divine One. She had THAT face, but she was pudgy and overweight with frizzy hair when she first came to Hollywood. She lost weight, got her hair under control and had some dental work to make her teeth look better and voila! She became Garbo, one of Hollywood's most legendary beauties. Same think happened with Marilyn Monroe. She had frizzy, curly reddish brown hair, a rather bulbous nose and mole on her chin. The hair was bleached blonde and straightened, she had a nose job, some dental work, the mole was removed and she became Marilyn Monroe the sex goddess. Sometimes the beauty is there, but a little help is needed to really bring it out.

R96 is right. They both fought the ageing process with trips to the plastic surgeon's office. In Cindy's case, not so well, considering that people now are often confusing her with Caitlyn Jenner.

Agreed R108. She has a very unique face. You could tell when she was a kid that she was going to grow up to be very pretty, and she was—at least for a couple years. It went downhill after The OC; too much drugs, booze, and cigarettes. The worst part is that she had legitimate talent. Her performance in "Lawn Dogs" with Sam Rockwell was heartbreaking.

If we're excluding orthodontics, Americans are always going to win simply because orthodontics have been so common there for so long (and not in the rest of the western world) that it'll be hard to get pictures of celebrities in the narrow age-band between getting adult teeth and getting braces. Difficult, therefore, to show whose teeth were perfect without. (My guess is, less than 1%.) Whereas in Britain and other countries, actors and singers are only likely to have got orthodontics when they started to make money and realised they'd be photographed a lot or appear on-screen. So there'll be lots of pictures of them with wonky teeth.

"American teeth" is a thing the rest of the world says. It means perfectly straight, perfectly white teeth which have been manipulated to be that way. They're seen as lovely, as long as it's been well done, but not something most people need to aspire to.

Don't forget the youthful Cary Grant. When Mae West spotted him walking across the studio lot, she is alleged to have said, "If he can talk, I'll take him."

Many of the folk mentioned here were attractive, but truly beautiful naturally is a much smaller category.

People like Peggy Lipton do not belong on the same page with likes of Gardner, Kelly, Taylor, Tierney - these were the great beauties of a century.

Yes, it's true we aly have our tastes, but I don't think it's arguable about the status of women like Taylor, Gardner, and Kelly.

I remember watching "Father of the Bride" when it was on television recently, featuring an 18 year old Taylor and thinking to myself, "My God. That just isn't fair!" and I'm not even partial to her type of beauty.

There's taste, and then again, there are something that hit you in the face even if you're not partial to them.

And, I'd like to add in here the magnificent, statuesque young Maureen O'Hara: born for Technicolor, although even in black and white you could see how stunning she was.

Jeanne Crain looks virtually perfect in this pic.

But a lot of what you see with that old movie studio photography is thousands and thousands of dollars worth of styling, lighting, and retouching technique that took whole teams of people to achieve; it was a very expensive advertising campaign. Actors weren’t necessarily hired because they were good looking, but because they looked good looking on the screen.

It’s not always the same thing.

these overly styled photos do not display natural beauty. they display artifice.

to judge, one has to find photos of these people before they were famous, or with minimal makeup, or even when still children.

most of these photos are publicity pictures, so don't prove the point.

Taylor had a nose job extremely early. we have no idea what else she had done. cute as a young girl, but groomed for stardom from day one so it is difficult to say if she would have been a "natural beauty".

i would nominate Edwige Fenech, but can't find any candid photos, childhood photos or non-modelling photos. so, who knows what she had done before she became noticed. another example is Amber Heard--very attractive girl, but she had work done to be the exceptional beauty she was for awhile.

Mmmmmm.....Elizabeth Taylor was much more than “cute” as a child.

Is there a reputable source that states she had a nose job? For one thing, they’re not done on children. And for another, when would she have been offscreen long enough to undergo such a procedure without the change being noticed? She worked fairly constantly, I think.

R285 I’ve said this before and some people here don’t like it but whatever but the peak of her beauty happened a good few years before she became a star.

By the time of Tootsie, Country etc she was still certainly pretty but not in any drop dead gorgeous head turning way anymore — she could look kind of plain (and very Midwestern), actually. And I don’t mean because she tried to downplay her looks (I’ve heard that too), certainly no one was trying to do that to her in Tootsie.

What’s interesting is you analyze the looks of many of these actresses and there’s a huge range in the age their looks peaked. Lange’s was definitely on the younger side of that spectrum.

I'm sorry, the lines between "cute" "attractive" and "beautiful" are seriously blurred on this thread.

Heather Locklear doesn't belong in the same category as Gregory Peck, Ava Gardner, Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn (whom no one has mentioned yet?!), and Errol Flynn, Gary Cooper - the people with staggering faces that the cameras ate up.

She's cute, no more.

As for not getting Ava Gardner - well, to each his own, but, really? The beautiful oval face, gorgeous skin, tilted light eyes contrasting with the abundant dark hair, the full lips and cleft chin, and a perfect figure?

You should hear Mickey Rooney wistfully on the subject of that body.

OK, no one is everyone's cup of tea, but there is such a thing as some form of objective rationality.

R288 - I agree. Lange's face got hard very quickly, and in that era almost anyone with regular enough features, blonde hair, and a slim figure was considered beautiful, because those WASP mid-western looks were more openly valued. They still are, to some degree, but it's much quieter. No one would have looked twice at beak-nosed, nasal-voiced Gwyneth Paltrow if she'd left her naturally curly mouse brown hair the way it was.

I am surprised no one has brought up the lovely Audrey Hepburn, with her unique look.

Audrey famously said that she never felt beautiful, because she was too thin and had huge feet and her nose made her look like a duck. She never had a nose job or any cosmetic surgery. She just stayed very thin. She aged like a prima ballerina. She looked her age, but with a very youthful carriage and elegant demeanor.

Grace Kelly was just pretty in my opinion. No nose job. I If Liz Taylor had a nose job, she had one of the best results of all time. I don't think so. All of our noses become a bit more refined after our teenage years.

Here is much better evidence that Garbo was an exceptional beauty. Her features were not tiny or pretty - but they were harmonious and her face moved beautifully. A lot of people look pretty in a still photo but few are this intimidatingly beautiful in life. Garbo was 44 when she made this screen test.

I just googled images of Hepburn as a child, and it's obvious to me she did NOT have a nose job - even the little bump in the middle that she had as a young teen is still there in her mature years.

Kelly - googled images of her as a child, she had a small button nose - she may have had it slimmed a bit but if so it wasn't much. The rest was all there, the skin, the bones, the blondeness, the pretty mouth and eyes . . .

Taylor - again, googled images of her as a child, don't see it. Even photos of her as a baby are extraordinary. They have photos of her up at like, maybe, two years old and the colouring along with the riveting eyes like torches are almost alien. And, by the way, the older brother also in the photo is quite gorgeous, too. Wonder what he looked like when he grew up. Certainly, something in the family DNA was handed out by Fates who were having a very good and and feeling generous.

R331 is wrong. It doesn't matter what you say to him. Some of us know about nose jobs. I've had two and nobody chooses the nose that Audrey Hepburn had in adulthood. Teenagers noses DO look fleshier and the underlying cartilage and bone will appear more prominent in adulthood.

It is a myth that noses can simply be thinned. The bones must be broken and reset. This would usually include a resculpting of the tip and a straightening of the cartilage. Obvious bumps would be removed. Nostrils can be thinned, tips either raised or lowered. The projection of the nose is just as important as the width. The projection is the angle of the nose from profile. Today people get very subtle minor work done - both Aniston and Cameron Diaz had nose jobs in their thirties and nobody noticed. Diaz had hers to fix an obviously broken nose and deviation that she always had. She could have had a graft or filler if she wanted a thinner nose with more projection, but she just had it straightened.

Elizabeth Taylor had plenty of good surgery later in life, but her beauty was natural. Grace Kelly was generically and evenly pretty with no particular great feature. Audrey Hepburn changed people's perception of beauty, because she was certainly never what people thought of as beautiful when she started out. And she would never have cosmetic surgery. Even her crooked teeth were her own. Leave lovely Audrey alone.

You do have to bear in mind that some sorts of beauty were very iconic within their era.

Julie Christie's beauty was so terribly iconic of the sixties, but I don't know if she'd have been considered so in, say, the 1930s, when the iconic beauty was for petite doll-faced women like Olivia de Haviland, Irene Dunne (another fresh-faced beauty), Claudette Colbert, Joan Bennett, Constance Bennett, Margaret Sullavan. There were always exceptions and those who ran against type, of course, but generally it's interesting to see what the preferred look was in each era.

In the 1940s, some of those held on but actresses like Lana Turner, Ingrid Bergman, Jennifer Jones, Ava Gardner began to mix it up . . .

In the 1950s you had two extremes: Marilyn Monroe and Sandra Dee/Doris Day, but Audrey Hepburn coming in with something unique and different.

In the 1960s, the Julie Christies and Faye Dunaways and Jane Fondas came in - Natalie Wood had been a child actress but she became a star, really, in the 1960s.

Some of those 1960s actresses would never have made it in the 1930s; and the cinematography made different demands, as well, in different eras. Today's HD closeups showing every pore might not have done any favours even for actresses like de Haviland with her perfect features and heart-shaped face.

The men seem to do better across genres and eras - Cagney and Bogart and Muni were hardly heart-throbs in terms of looks. People who say Dustin Hoffman couldn't have made it in the 1930s forget about people like Cagney and Muni.

But you take your Gary Coopers and Bob Mitchums and Gregory Pecks and Tyrone Powers and Robert Taylors and Errol Flynns - they were simply fucking gorgeous men and they'd have had a chance always.

The women fall far more victim to trends in looks.

R340 - I agree, the techniques were clumsy by today's standards. That goes for hair colouring too, which was brutal, especially for the platinum blondes. I looked at the images of Taylor Kelly and Hepburn as youngsters and the noses just didn't show real changes in adulthood. I always admired Hepburn for keeping that bump in the middle of her hose, a sort of wide bump not a high bump, which made her look terribly aristocratic.

[quote]To judge, one has to find photos of these people before they were famous, or with minimal makeup

This is actually one of my favorite photos of young Leonardo DiCaprio. A pap shot of him leaving his house circa 1995. Ugly T-shirt, the hair is a mess, he isn't posing and most likely not wearing any make-up - but I just love that facial expression which is typical of his early days. He has great bone structure, yes (now sadly buried under layers of booze bloat and prematurely aged skin), but to me, what really made him beautiful was that mixture of arrogance and vulnerability he exuded.

As for females, my vote goes to Emilia Clarke and a young J.Lo ( before the plastic surgery and style make-over during the Bennifer era). There was also a time when I found Rihanna stunningly beautiful, but at the moment, I'm not really seeing it anymore. Don't know if it's because of the weight gain, aging, or because I'm starting to find her a bit annoying.

Most of the people mentioned in this thread I find merely pretty tbh. They are technically 'perfect' with smooth skin, symmetrical features, good bone structure etc., but lack that certain something; there's nothing about their faces that captivates me, makes me want to look at them for more than 3 seconds.

Of all the people here, Audrey Hepburn stands out to me. I don’t think anyone could argue that she wasn’t elegant. Her whole physical being was elongate and graceful, and she moved with grace and she held herself with grace and serenity. Her voice and the way she used it were graceful. And she was always gracious. I suppose if she didn’t have a clear and smooth complexion and if she had “ugly” features, she wouldn’t have been seen as beautiful, but she is one example for whom beauty seems to beam from inside, and to be much more than just physical appearance. Part of her grace was that she did age without disfiguring herself and trying to battle age. She was always calm and reserved even in her youth and that carried through her whole life. So she just embodied a rare kind of elegance that people admire, the same reason we stop and watch when we see a swan gliding through water or an egret or an ibis carefully wading or a deer elegantly leaping. That may all sound gratuitous but it is how I view her—like some delicate, fragile looking but actually resilient creature.

I think sometimes in teens the nose can grow before the rest of the face "catches up." Like how feet reach their full size before the rest of the body. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I think people’s bodies mature differently. I have a friend whose baby—I swear to God—was born with a nose that looked like her husband’s prominent adult nose. I was taken aback when I saw him in the hospital, and she did not pretend not to notice. She laughed and laughed and laughed all the time about her “ugly baby” because of his nose. (She also sometimes called him “Little Mongo”—Mongoloid—because she just had a wicked sense of humor.) Anyway, he’s 18 or so now and totally normal looking.

R351 - It's not just the fleshiness: the tip was altered so that there was more space between the end of he nose and her upper lip. That is very clear, and it's a very common procedure amongst actors. Marilyn Monroe had a perfectly decent nose but one of early sponsors (read: lovers) persuaded her to have the bulbous part at the end of her nose just slightly altered in the same way.

The young Diana Rigg should definitely get a mention here.

And so should her forerunner in the role: Honor Blackman, who was beautiful well into her seventies. Blackman's beauty was the classy bone deep kind that lasts. She is still with us, by the way, 94 years old.

This is what it's really about. Of course beauty is subjective, but there are standards. Some sick minds on Datalounge damage all conversation. They are convinced that Tori Amos, Gia Garage, Belinda Carlisle and Angela Lansbury are the greatest beauties/singers/actresses ever. (psyche)

Such people and their sad cousins feel they must discredit something as simple as our appreciation for a dead celebrities natural beauty. (This challenge is only raised against women)

It's not tedious. The few posters who do this are relentless. So we hear that Beyonce and JLo had nose jobs, or these women lighten their skin or some dumb claims here about someone as clearly natural and unaffected as Audrey Hepburn. A nutjob grabs onto tip reduction surgery as a way to make themselves feel better about their Tori Amos face? Or some other worshipped icons? Maybe they're just nuts. Lots of posters here have posted people that I don't think are beautiful or natural. I don't care. But someone is out for Audrey, Taylor and Princess Grace and I think that is weird. The obsession with Audrey Hepburn's completely singular nose makes me laugh. But there's twisted reason for the nutjob's obsession. Don't take the bait.

Regardless, LISTEN to this song. Ignore or not that it's a photo tribute to Liz Taylor. It's a great song about the jealousy and rage that fans hide beneath their worship.

There are many posts here that are insincere or in jest, some others that are meant to provoke a response and the majority of them are, as expected, predicable and not particularly interesting. Because they are universally true. Some freaks are running the Datalounge show. Don't let them. Audrey Hepburn did not have a nose job. You don't need to disprove crazy talk. She was as lovely or homely as you see her. But what you see is who she was. Her story is well known.

Ignore the Elizabeth Taylor avatar and listen to the song.

R393 & R398: It wouldn't make a big difference if Taylor's eyes were dark brown. Yes, her eye color was lovely and the contrast between lighter eyes and dark hair can be striking. Ultimately, what matters most is the shape of the eyes and hers were beautifully shaped. Her thick lashes were icing on the cake.

Rachel Dratch and Steve Buscemi don't have nicely shaped eyes. Their eyes are blue and that doesn't help their looks one bit. Sylvester Stallone's eyes droop at the outer corners like a Basset hound. Cute on a dog. On a person, not so much. Green, blue, or hazel wouldn't really improve Stallone's appearance. It's the shape, people.

What does make a difference is your personality. The energy and "life" it gives to your eyes – that adds a lot. Surgery victim Bella Hadid isn't beautiful to me. If she had a better nose, she would still have the same dead eyes. She actually had more life in her eyes when she had her natural face. It made her appealing. With her current dead expression, it's a joke that she's a model. Thanks, nepotism!

Eva added that Liz was one of those women who became so much nicer as she got older and heavier.

Whether you liked her looks or not, Taylor was still extraordinary looking - she had three biological children, two sons with Michael Wilding who got her eyes and a fair amount of beauty if not quite on her scale, and a daughter with Mike Todd, who looked . . . just like Mike Todd.

Can you imagine being that little girl? The mother one of the renowned beauties of her generation, the two older brothers with her startling eyes, fair skin, dark hair, oval bones . . . and you, the only girl, come out looking like a prizefighter?

Liz Taylor was vulgar looking. She had a beautiful face and lush coloring as a young woman. But it was gone by the time she turned 26. From then till death she just rolled around in bloated excess. Her "beauty" was painted on or purchased at Bulgari. It cost a lot of money for her to look like the queen of a trailer park.

Her beauty took a nose-five after she took up with Burton. Initially, it was too much booze, then too much fattening food, and too many drugs. That is what screwed her health.

This thread has gone completely off the rails. Madonna? Naturally "beautiful"? Mate, if she HAD been she would have taken a different approach to her celebrity-hunting life. The one she did take was the one most often taken by women who KNOW they aren't beautiful and have to make it using something else.

"Beauty" and "attractiveness" are not equivalencies.

We were talking naturally beautiful here, i.e., people born with a great deal of extra helpings of beautiful eyes, teeth, hair, skin, and figures who are loved by cameras.

Heather Locklear is cute. Meg Ryan was cute. Sandra Dee was cute. They were pretty, at most. They and Madonna and sundry other forgettable faces mentioned here do not belong on a thread with people like Liz Taylor, Ava Gardner, Errol Flynn, Tyrone Power, Gary Cooper, Robert Taylor, Cary Grant, Jacqueline Bisset, Charlotte Rampling (who has been unaccountably left off, along with the legendary Jean Shrimpton), and Julie Christie.

Perfect skin, great body ( about 5' 10"). HIs best feature were his eyes. Light blue with the whitest white I've ever seen, framed by dark brown eyelashes. We chatted a little and every time he looked at me I practically gasped. The show was the hot ticket and we talked about how hard it was to get tix (three month wait) amongst other topics. Nice guy, very funny and bright, no "star" attitude. Just gorgeous all over, it was easy to see why he gets cast.

I NEVER posted that Suzy was a great actress, she started as a model. Do get your info straight before you present an argument. She appeared to be a natural beauty.

Why is "all right when the guy is the one at that end of the equation"? That never made sense and still doesn't.

I can't comprehend why an attractive women, with a good career and her own money, marries a wealthy unattractive rich man, this has been going on forever and somehow this trend continues, yet it doesn't make sense. Unless the woman is so insecure, she wants to be the best looking one in the relationship? There are surely enough attractive wealthy men out there for these beautiful successful rich women to marry. When I see a gorgeous successful wealthy model with some ugly dude, especially an unattractive older man, I'm baffled. Relationships are not solely about power.

Dillman was not attractive, Suzy could have done much better. He was so creepy looking, he looked like a serial killer.
