      Omg, I never liked her acting, but she was FAR from unattractive, even if not my type.

      But God damn she’s barely a manequin’s type now. Wtf do celebs fuck themselves over. Same with starlight from the boys.

        Saw this the other day and I hope some younger actresses can hear it. It’s nice to see her aging gracefully, I think there need to be more role models for just aging.

        I had to look her up. I don’t get why some women seem so terrified of aging that they become something… well, not human-looking.

        At some point you’d think they’d look at older pictures and realize the procedures are not meeting expectations, but it seems they never stop trying to “fix” themselves.

        Without knowing all the facts, I’ve been placing the blame largely on her relationship with Machine Gun Kelly. Man, fuck that guy.

        Though I’m sure a lot of it was her own doing too.

        Apparently the actor playing Starlight, Erin Moriarty, has an autoimmune disease, which made her lose a lot of weight. When I look at pictures of her before and after, and also how she looks now, a couple of years after the plastic surgery allegations, I can definitely believe that it’s weight loss, lighting and makeup that accounts for people’s reaction to some of the photos she posted, and not plastic surgery.

            I actually find it interesting that you chose that specific image to make your point about inflated lips, because comparing the lips on the first image with the ones that follow, only solidifies my belief in that being due to weight loss, lighting and makeup. I can definitely recommend people look at YouTube videos of what can be done with makeup and proper lighting! It’s really wild how much it can make lips look a lot bigger, and for people who don’t know a lot about makeup, it can be quite the eye-opener. I’ve included 4 videos that show off some techniques for it.

              That was just the first result. I noticed it mostly when watching The Boys, starting with either season 2 or 3, she got very weird looking.

        Imagine your whole life consists of thousands if not millions of people saying you are good looking. Suddenly, age takes it’s toll and now it’s only hundreds. Now the dopamine flow (a lot of) people get from admiration, is dwindling . I bet basically investing a lot of your stat points into appearance ( by luck and genes), now withering away, makes you way more determined, trying to reverse that process. Especially if you have no skill to fall back on which could outweigh your appearance “effect” but will still keep generating adoration/respect/interest by people.

      I have the same birthday as her. And Fucker Carlson. Those are the only really famous people. Very disappointing. May 16th.
