13 actors whose talent is as unique as their appearance
Each person is unique and invaluable. Each face is a personal story, which is better not to evaluate in parts, but to take it as it is. Often on the screen or on the podium you can see people who seem to have nothing in common with the canons of beauty, but fashion directors and designers do not want to see anyone else in their place.
We at Bright Side are confident that these actors were successful not because they met the standards of the world of film or fashion, but because they weren't afraid of being themselves.
Vincent Schiavelli
The unusual appearance of this American actor of Sicilian origin is caused by Marfan syndrome, a hereditary pathology of the connective tissue.
Despite the disease, "the man with sad eyes", as he was called in Hollywood, during his life managed to participate in 159 films. The films with his participation "Una mujer descasada", "Ghost, the shadow of love", "Amadeus" and "Caught without exit" were nominated for "Oscar" and the last two received it.
Vincent was also a talented culinary specialist. He released 3 cookbooks and published many articles on food.
Kristen Stewart
Looking completely different from Hollywood, Kristen became the protagonist of the fantasy saga "Twilight" and starred in more than 50 other films. She is also the face of the fashion brands Chanel and Balenciaga.
Kristen says about herself: "Only if you respect and love yourself, someone else will too."
Steve Buscemi
He has bulging eyes, with a characteristic squint and carnivorous smile: he is so striking that he sometimes overshadows the main characters, playing a memorable role.
Steve is a very popular actor, his filmography has almost 160 films. He often plays the roles of psychopaths and bandits. In 2011 he received the "Golden Globe" for the role of boss of the criminal world.
Whoopi goldberg
One of the few celebrities to be awarded four major American awards: Oscars, Grammy, Emmy and Tony. On her shelf there are also 2 "Golden Globes", BAFTAs and a star on the Walk of Fame: we are talking about Caryn Elaine Johnson.
The alias "Whoopi" comes from its child nickname "whoopee cushion" (cushion of farts).
Michael Berryman
The actor was born with anhydrotic ectodermal dysplasia. This rare genetic abnormality leads to a complete lack of hair, teeth, and nails, as well as an increase in frontal bone.
Michael's trademark appearance often attracts fantasy and horror filmmakers. During his 69 years, the actor participated in more than 90 films and today he continues to work.
Devon aoki
Short stature, freckles on his face and unusual Asian appearance did not prevent Devon, who has a mixture of Japanese, German and British blood, from achieving success, first in the modeling business and then in the movies.
“The definition of beauty is just a matter of judgment. For me, real beauty has little to do with how a person's face or body looks, ”believes Devon, and we fully agree with her.
Woody harrelson
"I'm not George Clooney, but life is still amazing," says Woody Harrelson, who cannot be called a handsome Hollywood man, but his charisma and acting talent allowed him to seriously progress in the movies. He has over 90 movies on his account.
Vanessa paradis
At the age of 15 her debut album went platinum, at 16 she acted in a movie, and at 18 she became the face of Chanel. The appearance of this French singer, actress and model is far from the usual canons, which does not prevent Vanessa from successfully experimenting with her image.
Marty feldman
The bulging eyes due to the overactive thyroid gland, the crooked nose, injured during boxing practices, and the unsuccessful operation on the face after a traffic accident made the actor's appearance so unusual and recognizable.
His characters are mostly comedians, but Marty in addition to acting in movies, was also a successful director, screenwriter, and poet.
Reese witherspoon
For some she is "legally blonde", others remembered her role in "Amores en colores". She has more than 50 roles, is a winner of the Oscars, Golden Globe and the BAFTA award for best actress.
“I have cellulite and stretch marks, and I have a certain fear of Victoria’s Secret standards. Hollywood is an endless race, but it is a race to nowhere. There is no victory. You will never win a competition for attractiveness. I just want to be more perfect than I am now, ”says Reese.
In 2006, FHM magazine awarded her 34th place in the ranking of the 100 Sexiest Women in the World.
Forest whitaker
The actor, who has starred in more than 120 films, has a striking appearance and an absolute commitment to every role. He was awarded the "Oscar", "Golden Globe", BAFTA, "Emmy" and many other awards.
One day Whitaker was asked about his left eyelid. Do you know what he said? "My eye? It is genetic. My father had it that way, now I have it. I don't think about it and I don't think I look worse or something like that. That's the thing".
Sigourney weaver
At age 14, the actress changed her name from Susan and became Sigourney. “I changed my name because I didn't like being Sue or Susie. It seemed to me that since I'm so tall, I need a more authentic name. And what do I have as a result? Now everyone calls me Shig or Siggy. "
Despite concerns about her own height (1.82 m), Sigourney has successfully developed her acting career for more than 40 years, has 2 Golden Globes and participated in 80 films.
Ron Perlman
Ron played his first major role on the series "Beauty and the Beast." For the role of the monster Vincent, he received the Golden Globe as the best television actor. But the real glory came to him after playing Hellboy.
“Part of me is a monster that I have always felt. You can hide or fight with it, or accept it and understand that these are all the parts that make you unique, define you and motivate you ”.
As you can see, the world smiles at those who are in harmony with themselves, and appearance has nothing to do with it.
Don't forget who you really are, and love yourself.
