Gwyneth Paltrow, Angelina Jolie, Cameron Diaz, and Jennifer Aniston are just a few stars who have maintained a consistent look for most of their careers. However, there are others who have drastically changed their look over time, shocking their fans in the process. Some have shed their good-girl persona and gone a little bad, while others have undergone serious body transformations. Here are 7 of the most talked-about celebrity makeover.


1. Kelly Osbourne: From Fashion Victim to Fashion Police

When Kelly Osbourne skyrocketed to fame as a teen on MTV’s The Osbournes in 2002, she wasn’t exactly known for her keen sense of style. However, as she grew up so did her sense of style. In 2010 she even landed a job on the Joan Rivers show Fashion Police, and still gets paid as a fashion expert to this day.

2. Khloe Kardashian

Khloe Kardashian was bullied and body shamed in her younger years. However, she transformed her look in the most dramatic way possible, becoming devoted to a healthy diet and intense workout regimen. She even created a show, Revenge Body, helping other women transform their figures after going through tough times. Recently Khloe shot down rumors that she was taking Ozempic. “Let’s not discredit my years of working out,” she responded on social media. “I get up 5 days a week at 6am to train. Please stop with your assumptions.”

3. Ariana Grande: From Nickelodeon Darling to Pop Princess

Ariana Grande looks almost unrecognizable in old episodes of the Nickelodeon show Victorious, where she played Cat Valentine in 2009. However, just a few years later she would transform into a pop princess just two years later when she released her first single, Put Your Hearts Up. Soon she would become known for her trademark high ponytails, skimpy stage clothes, and princess-like red carpet gowns.

4. Meghan Markle: From Game Show Model to Designer Duchess

Meghan Markle was a relatively unknown actress when she landed her role in Suits. While it seemed like a fairy tale role for the former Deal or No Deal model, she really got her happily ever after when she landed one of the most eligible bachelors in the world, Prince Harry. Meghan quickly exchanged her denim for Dior and is now known for her sophisticated style.

5. Kim Kardashian: From Early Aughts Trendy to Designer Muse

When Kim Kardashian emerged on the Hollywood scene as Paris Hilton’s BFF in the early aughts, she looked like every other club girl at the time and definitely didn’t make The Met Gala list. It wasn’t until she hooked up with former husband Kanye West, who gave her a serious makeover, that she became a designer muse and a staple at the annual fashion gala.

6. Taylor Swift: From Country Cutie to Edgy Pop Princess

Taylor Swift was a country darling who wore sweet dresses and cowboy boots. However, her look started transforming, taking a serious turn when she decided to leave her country roots behind and become a pop princess. She has since reinvented her look numerous times and owns her chameleon style with pride.

7. Miley Cyrus: From Little Girl Next Door to Wrecking Ball Bad Girl
