They never aspired to the title of written beauties. Knowing about their special appearance, these girls relied on unusualness and tried to emphasize it. And, probably, thanks to just such an extraordinary beauty, they managed to achieve fame and recognition.
25-year-old Saoirse Unet is a rising Hollywood star with a very unusual appearance. It’s funny, but Saoirse is translated as “freedom”, but Una – “little seal”. What prompted the girl’s parents – the bartender’s father and the nanny mother – to give the child such a name is unknown, but at least the actress named Saoirse is one of a kind in the Hollywood galaxy of stars. The girl with piercing, almost transparent eyes, thin, slightly pointed features of the face was noticed immediately. She stood out too much among her peers. After playing a lot of episodic roles as a child, Saoirse soon gets her first major role in the drama Atonement. Critics immediately noted her performance and were even ready to admit that the young actress outshines the main star of the film – Keira Knightley. But the most stellar picture in Saoirse’s piggy bank was “Lovely Bones” – the actress was nominated for several film awards, and the directors were ready to fight over a blond angel with a piercing gaze. However, the fame did not affect the character of the girl in any way. She even worried that she had to switch to home schooling due to the close attention of her peers.
Rooney Mara’s androgynous appearance appealed to the creators of the American remake of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Tattooed, all in piercings, incredibly smart, purposeful, dangerous and very unhappy Lisbeth Salander, played by Rooney, raised her to the pinnacle of fame.
Can you believe that Tilda Swinton is 58 years old? This woman is a true master of reincarnation. In her arsenal, the roles of charming witches, seductive vampires, scary old women and even men – she can play absolutely anything. Tilda’s cold appearance is mesmerizing, and she will not turn her tongue to call her ugly. There is something in her appearance so attractive that it takes your breath away.
As soon as they called Kate Moss – and bow-legged, and chipped, and simply ugly. Like, how did such an awkward girl become a supermodel on a par with the recognized beauties Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford and Claudia Schiffer? Yes, maybe Kate is not a beauty, but she does not lack charm and sexual charm.
Like her namesake Elisabeth Moss – no, they are not sisters. The Handmaid’s Tale star also falls far short of Hollywood beauty standards. And the model Lily Cole looks like an alien at all, but this did not stop her from conquering the modeling world.
