13 Celebrities Who've Changed A Lot Since They First Became Famous

We all know that celebrities are under a lot of pressure. Apart from strutting over the red carpets of the world, they are expected to look perfect at all times. Youth as a beauty ideal is mostly only attainable as long as one actually is young. That's why many celebs ask for the help of cosmetic surgeons in their quest for eternal youth. Quite often, plastic surgeries don't have the desired effect. With or without surgery, the following celebrities changed quite a bit.

#1 John Travolta

Back in the day, women went crazy for  John Travolta. He earned his place in our hearts by playing the part of "Danny Zuko" in Grease.

The beauty craze seems to have caught up with Travolta. His face looks increasingly frozen, which is apparently caused by a face lift and Botox.

#2 Brendan Fraser 

What happened to Brendan Fraser? We remember him all too well in his role as "George" in "George of the Jungle". Work and pressure seem to have left their mark, seemingly supported by an unhealthy diet.

#3 Kevin Federline

Kevin Federline rose to international fame when he started dating Britney Spears. Their ensuing marriage from 2004 to 2006 was the reason for his numerous appearances in the yellow press. While the former dancer's appearance has changed, he still looks good today.

#4 Rob Kardashian

Yes, of course, sooner or later we had to bring up at least one of the Kardashians. Today, Rob looks nothing like his younger self! Here, he is pictured with ex-girlfriend Blac Chyna.

#5 Macaulay Culkin

We adored Macaulay Culkin in "Home Alone"! What happened to the innocent-looking kid? Culkin went through a rough patch, including substance abuse. While he appears to be on the road to recovery, his past behavior hasn't failed to leave its mark on him.

#6 Melanie Griffith

There's no denying that Melanie Griffith had plastic surgery. In an interview back in 2017, the actress admitted that she regrets going under the knife. She only noticed what she had done when people started commenting on her new looks...

#7 Courteney Cox

Her role as "Monica" in the sitcom "Friends" is absolutely iconic! Courteney Cox was one of the extremely good-looking actresses back in the 90s, even if she too tried out some of the embarrassing trends of the 90s and early 2000s . Over the years she had several fillers which changed her appearance quite a bit. For a while, we almost didn't recognize her. Today, she's spoken out about having had her fillers removed. She's returned to her naturally beautiful face.

#8 Linda Kozlowski

We know the actress from her role in "Crocodile Dundee". When she turned her back on the movie business at age 60, it were her medical procedures that drew attention to Kozlowski.

#9 Katie Price

The English model quickly enchanted us with her breathtaking beauty. Due to plastic surgery, her face has changed a lot in the past. Today, she rocks quite a different look.

#10 Britney Spears

The 90s idol's song "Hit Me Baby One More Time" will live rent-free in our heads for eternity. Despite having an incredibly tough life and practically no privacy as long as paparazzi are around, she still has that "Britney spark". Up until now, the singer has only tried lip fillers.

Britney's Sons Have Grown up!

It's not just Britney Spears and Kevin Federline who have changed over the years, their sons Sean and Jayden obviously did so, as well. A recent photo post, shared by one of Federline's friends, @emoofficial718, shows how grown up the two look today. Jayden appears to have inherited his mother's musical talent, he's proudly demonstrating his piano skills in one of the slides!

Britney Spears and Sam Asghari Got Married!

The couple said "yes!" in an intimate ceremony, Asghari's manager confirmed. They celebrated their love following the end of Spears's conservatorship seven months ago. The wedding was held in California and Paris Hilton, Drew Barrymore, and Madonna were among the 60 guests. Her sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James were not present, according to Kevin Federline's lawyer, but not because they were unhappy about the wedding.

There was some drama involved in the couples big day, since Spears's first husband, Jason Alexander, attempted to and succeeded in trespassing to disrupt the wedding party. He was arrested by Ventura County police.

Spears's parents, Jamie and Lynne Spears, and her sister Jamie Lynn were reportedly not invited to the wedding.

Britney Spears Invited Friends Like Madonna

The guest list for their special day couldn't have been more spectacular: among the guests were Madonna (whom she kissed again …), Drew Barrymore, Selena Gomez, Paris Hilton and Donatella Versace, who also designed Spears's wedding dress! Although she writes she was having a panic attack in the afternoon before the wedding, she seems overjoyed with her fairy tale wedding, including a Cinderella-like carriage and a Hollywood-style kiss on a balcony adorned with the most beautiful flowers.

Only the best for the happy couple!

#11 Lindsay Lohan

In the American teen comedy "Mean Girls", Lindsay Lohan played the role of Cady Heron, which is still one of our all-time favorites when it comes to her movie appearances. Over the years, Lohan has struggled with substance abuse. We absolutely adore her nevertheless.

#12 Tara Reid

Remember Tara Reid playing "Vicky", the girl next door, in the "American Pie" movies? Men and women wanted to be with her, women wanted to look like her. Over the years, however, her predilection for plastic surgery has changed her appearance significantly.

#13 Lizzo

Lizzo, whose birth name is Melissa Viviane Jefferson, started her career like many young and struggling artists – she moved into a different city with little financial means and tried to make a name for herself. When she was 21, she apparently lived in her car for a year and then moved to Minneapolis in 2010, where she became a member of the rap group GRRRL PRTY.Then, in 2019, almost wanting to abandon her career, she dropped Truth Hurts and the rest is history.

Since then, she has changed a lot and has become a spokesperson for body positivity and self love:

Lizzo Today

Not just her style has changed in recent years, the artist has seemingly grown more and more into her role as an inspiring example for body positivity. Partnering with Dove, she recently shared an unaltered snap of herself, commenting: „[N]ow normally I would fix my belly and smooth my skin but baby I wanted show u how I do it au natural.“ You have to love her for her radical honesty.
