Since they are always under the spotlight, celebrities work hard to retain their beauty and appearance. Some of them resort to plastic surgery to alter their image, while others choose minor alterations to improve what they don’t like about themselves or to correct cosmetic imperfections.
Bright Side has compiled a list of celebrities who have learned to love and accept themselves through minor physical changes rather than cosmetic surgery.
1. Tom Cruise
Actors must have great-looking teeth, and Tom Cruise, who has ruled the movie industry since the 1980s, has undoubtedly worked hard to achieve his current grin. When Cruise first rose to fame, his teeth had not yet undergone extensive cosmetic dental surgery. A young Tom purposely ripped the cap from his front teeth while playing Steve Randle in 1983’s The Outsiders.
On the other hand, the performer had never lacked confidence. Tom Cruise’s teeth had to be corrected over time, and the actor had to go through lengthy therapy. At the age of 40, he wore braces for the first time because his teeth were misaligned, and he could then stretch them and smile with his sparkling teeth.
2. Demi Lovato
Demi Lovato, the Disney star, has changed little about her appearance over the years, and she’s had no plastic surgery to correct minor blemishes. On the other hand, Demi has always enjoyed changing her style, particularly her haircut.
Lovato came out as a non-binary in 2021. The singer leveraged her notoriety to raise public awareness of what it means to be non-binary. She said she does not recognize herself in older photographs in which she appears to be highly feminine, and as a result, she wanted to entirely transform her look.
“The person I am today with short hair and the person that I’ve been over the past year publicly, I mean, that’s who I feel like I am.”
3. Adele
Adele’s heavenly voice has wowed audiences since she debuted in the music industry more than a decade ago. The artist has always kept her personal life private, only stepping into the public to promote her songs. In 2020, however, she astonished everyone when she shared an Instagram photo of her significant weight loss and gorgeous makeover.
Owing to several wise lifestyle changes, she’s shed ’100 pounds’ and completely transformed her body. She had declared: “My body’s been objectified my entire career. I understand why it’s a shock. Visually, I represented a lot of women. But I’m still the same person.”
4. Ariana Grande
Since leaving the television series Victorious, where she rose to fame, Ariana has pursued a solo career as a singer, and she has radically transformed her life and appearance. Her style has developed, moving away from the fresh teenage girl image and toward her own distinctive look made up of her long ponytail, eyeliner, and glamorous clothing. Ariana is now nearly unrecognizable, but she has surely evolved into a fantastic woman.
5. Miley Cyrus
Miley Cyrus has had many makeovers over her career, ranging from Hannah Montana’s blonde wig to her short and innovative haircut. Despite not having the same baby face and naivety she had as a child, Miley has kept her beauty without resorting to surgery, and the only major change she has made to her appearance is to align her teeth to straighten her grin.
6. Chris Pratt
Chris Pratt, the Marvel actor who gained weight for his role in Parks and Recreation, has gone on a long diet and shed 60 pounds. For the 2013 film Guardians of the Galaxy, the actor lost that much weight in less than six months. Chris had been through a dark period in his life before his transformation, and while the weight-loss journey had been difficult, he was finally feeling better and loving himself.
7. Lady Gaga
We all remember Lady Gaga’s quirky and controversial clothes during her meteoric rise to fame in 2009. At each public event, the singer stunned everyone by arriving in bizarre outfits with wild hairstyles and makeup.
Nowadays, Gaga continues to dazzle all who listen to her music, but she has changed a lot of her appearance, particularly when she starred in the film A Star Is Born alongside Bradley Cooper. The American singer has opted for a style that highlights her natural beauty.
Which celebrity do you believe has undergone the most dramatic makeover?
Tom Cruise’s unwavering devotion to his mother, Mary, has deeply influenced his personal and professional life. From a tumultuous childhood marked by frequent relocations and his father’s abandonment, Cruise emerged as a pillar of strength for his family. At just 11, he supported his mother and sisters, prioritizing their needs over his own aspirations. Even as he rose to Hollywood stardom, Cruise’s bond with his mother remained unbreakable, with Mary often accompanying him to events. Their profound connection persisted until her passing in 2017, with Cruise attributing much of his success to the values she instilled in him.
