13 Celebrities Who Are Proud of Their Unusual Appearance, and We Can Learn a Lot From Them

5 years ago

Despite the fact that many people treat celebrities as ideals of beauty, they are not always perfect. But they manage to use their unusual appearances for their own benefit. There are no perfect people in the world, so why don’t we just accept each other for what we really are.

Bright Side has collected 13 celebrities who don’t worry about their unusual appearance and easily demonstrate it to the entire world.

Kate Hudson

If you have pointy ears and you worry about them, you should look to this Hollywood star as an example. Kate Hudson doesn’t hide her ears in her hair, she does everything to highlight this special feature. Recently, the actress got a short haircut. Now she can easily show off her pointy ears to anyone.

Natalie Dormer

Natalie Dormer has facial nerve palsy which she got during birth. The damage is barely noticeable when the actress is smiling, but it can be seen when her face is relaxed. However, most viewers don’t notice it because experienced makeup artists can hide this imperfection.

Joaquin Phoenix

Joaquin Phoenix was born with a cleft lip. After surgery, he has a scar between his upper lip and nose. But this feature never stood in the way of Phoenix becoming one of the most successful Hollywood actors.

Paris Hilton

If you look at Paris Hilton’s photos from different events, you will probably notice that she usually faces the camera with the right side of her face. It’s because she has amblyopia, also known as a lazy eye: because of weak muscles, one eye seems to be a lot smaller than the other one.

Denzel Washington

2-time Oscar winner Denzel Washington has something unusual about his appearance, too. When he was young, he was playing sports and broke the pinky on his right hand. He didn’t get medical help in time, so his pinky looks a little strange. But who cares about fingers when an actor is this talented?

Jennifer Garner

Jennifer Garner’s toes are a little deformed. On her right leg, the pinky toe lies on top of the adjacent toe. In most cases, this anomaly appears because the person consistently wore shoes that were ill-fitting or too small. But the actress doesn’t care about this unusual thing and still wears sandals.

Daryl Hannah

Daryl Hannah doesn’t have a part of her index finger on her left hand. She got this injury in an accident when she was a child. Daryl was visiting her grandmother and she stuck her finger in a hole in the wall of the house. She couldn’t get it out, so urgent measures had to be taken.

Forest Whitaker

Forest Whitaker has eyelid ptosis, so one of his eyes always appears a little bit closed. This feature could be fixed with a surgery but the actor doesn’t want to do it: his look is his thing now.

Kylie Jenner

At the age of 5, Kylie Jenner pierced her leg with a metal rod in a fence when she was playing hide and seek with her sister. Now, she has a big scar on her left hip. But she is not going to have surgery to get the scar removed, and she has no problem with wearing short dresses.

Bill Nighy

When Bill Nighy was 20 years old, he was diagnosed with Dupuytren’s contracture. This is a disease which leads to a partial loss of wrist function. So, the actor’s fingers, specifically the ring finger and the pinkies on both hands, are always pressed against his palms.

Tina Fey

When Tina Fey was 5 years old, she was attacked. A man cut her face with a knife. Tina has had a scar on her face ever since then.

Whoopi Goldberg

Have you ever noticed anything unusual about Whoopi Goldberg’s appearance? She doesn’t have eyebrows! The actress shaved them off once and when they started to grow back, they itched a lot. So since then, Goldberg has been shaving her eyebrows.

Kaley Cuoco

After an accident that happened in 2010 when a horse jumped on the actress’ leg, Kaley Cuoco has had a scar. Cuoco was transported to the ER because her leg was severely broken. In order to stabilize the position of the bones, the doctors had to put 2 metal rods inside her leg. And now you can see a long scar on her ankle.

Didn't know about Dormer's nerve twitch, thought it was just a facial structure. Interesting.

I've never noticed Tina Fey's scar, now I'll never not see it. I'm also curious of the surely tragic story behind it. I'll be looking it up next.

It was literally just a bad guy walking up and slashing her face as a kid. I can’t remember if he tried to abduct her, or not…I forget. But a grown man walking up to a little girl and cutting deep into her face is bad enough. The story is online to easily find. Never take a random person on lines word for it haha

Joaquin Phoenix Didn’t have a cleft lip, and he didn’t have surgery. He himself said he was just born with the scar. I think I’ll take his word over a fact checkers lazy day…

All of them are extremely interesting except for Whoopi Goldberg…not even sure why it’s on this list since it’s self induced.
