Female celebrities, whether they are actors, singers, or models, are under constant pressure to adhere to various beauty regimes and physical alteration practices, such as plastic surgery, severe dieting, and daily makeup application. Hollywood beauty standards are very impossible to meet, and the moment you approach 30 or put on five pounds, you come under intense scrutiny from the media and the general public.
It, therefore, comes as no surprise that many well-known women adhere to the rules, having facelifts, dying their hair, and never leaving the home without a face covered in makeup While I am sympathetic, the genuine Hollywood heroes defy expectations by wearing their natural hair, forgoing cosmetic surgery, and donning little to no makeup. Here is a list of famous people who appreciate their natural beauty without further ado.
