This year was an important one for us. Not only did we see many of our favorite celebs hitting the big 4-0, but we saw them embracing their youthful looks and showing us some sexy, new photos. And while we were ecstatic to see our favorite stars embracing their natural beauty, we were also a little bummed that so many of the photos were fake. After all, what is a photo shoot if not an opportunity to be genuine?
Thankfully, we had a chance to speak with some of these celebs about their 2019 photoshoot. Check out what they had to say about their looks, plastic surgery, and more!
Zoë Kravitz
Zoë Kravitz is an American actress, model, and singer. She rose to fame in the early 2010s after landing roles in several hit films. These days, she is best known for her work in the James Bond film series, where she has frequently played SPECTRE agent Léa Sinclair.
Speaking with us about her 2019 photoshoot, she shared, “I really wanted to do something fun and youthful, but still keeping with the Bond spirit. I love the way they mix the old and the new – it makes it contemporary and trendy. I wanted to keep the classy but cool vibe and glam. So, I used my youthfulness and fun-loving nature to play with my hair and makeup, in a way that makes me feel like I’m James Bond!”
Zoë has admitted in the past to having had multiple plastic surgeries in an effort to achieve a more youthful appearance. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, she said, “I’ve had some work done. I’ve always been very interested in fashion, beauty, glamour, and of course, celebrities. So, I did a little bit of everything. It’s all about looking at how you want to present yourself and feeling confident in that. I think it’s really important to be happy with what you have and not try to change too much.”
As for her personal life, Zoë is married to movie producer and director Matt Wolf. The couple reportedly began dating in 2015 after meeting on the set of Coffee With Cummings. They were engaged in 2018 and have one daughter, Lilac. The pair wed in a small family ceremony in New York City in January 2019. We wish them all the best!
Robert Pattinson
Robert Pattinson is an English actor, writer, and singer. He is one of the most celebrated film stars of his generation and continues to draw audiences with his versatile performances. At age 33, he is best known for his role as a vampire in the hugely successful Twilight series, which has now been turned into a movie musical. He currently stars in the critically acclaimed Good Will Hunting as well as the upcoming Edward Cullen franchise, due for release in April 2021.
When it comes to his personal life, the actor has been in a long-term relationship with Japanese model and actress Kristen Stewart. The pair became inseparable while filming the Twilight franchise and released a joint statement in 2018 that they would be “honored to be married” and “commit to each other” in 2019. As for his own plastic surgery history, Robert recently admitted to having had a double chin removed and having liposuction. However, he insisted that these were “normal things everyone has done” and that he has not altered his natural appearance. But what does the future hold for the handsome star? As he gets older, will he begin to show signs of his surgery, or will he remain ageless as his on-screen persona? Only time will tell, but for now, his fans can still rejoice in his incredible beauty.
What is your thoughts on plastic surgery?
We love our celebrities, and we really appreciate all the work that they put in to look the way they do. No matter what age you are, it’s never easy to look like a hotshot celebrity (even when you are one). But, as we’ve established, some stars choose to go under the knife to achieve the perfect look they want, and that’s their business. We support them 100% in their quest for perfection, and we’re glad they share their passion for fashion with us.
However, we also have to acknowledge that some celebrities are just trying to cash in on their looks, and that’s never a good thing. We have to keep our eyes open for signs of extreme desperation when it comes to plastic surgery, because at the end of the day, we’re just one step away from being idols ourselves. So, if we start getting nose jobs and double chins and implants, it can only mean that either someone is gunning for our jobs or we’re just not being ourselves.
How much work goes into your 2019 photoshoot?
This year, we saw a rise in celebrity photoshoots as well as a fall in animal-related photoshoots. However, that doesn’t mean that animals aren’t still beloved as subject matter for photographers. It just means that celebrities are choosing to showcase their fashion rather than their cute puppy photos in the first place.
Instead of focusing on cute animal photos, we saw celebs put in a lot of work to ensure that their photoshoot looked as polished and professional as possible. And we have to give credit where credit is due, because a lot of thought and planning went into making these looks happen. The costumes, the hair and makeup, the setting — everything was carefully thought out to ensure that the resulting photograph looked as good as new.
With that being said, we saw a lot of fake engagement rings and wedding bands in 2019. It seems that some celebrities aren’t afraid to have their pictures taken, even when they’re not fully committed to the person they’re marrying. So, while we were thrilled to see so many stars embracing their natural beauty, we also had to admit that it was a little sad to see so much photoshopping when there was no need for it. Hopefully, that will improve in the future.
Which celeb did you find the most attractive?
It’s really hard to pick a favorite among these beautiful people, but if we had to, we’d say that Robert Pattinson comes closest to capturing our hearts. It’s not that we don’t like Zoë Kravitz or even the Twilight actors collectively. It’s just that Robert brings that extra something special to the table. If you’ve never seen him play a character, you might not understand what we mean.
He’s not your typical leading man, and that’s what makes him so attractive. He’s more like a charismatic, romantic, anti-hero rather than your average sex symbol. And we think that’s what makes him even more attractive to female fans. Women can relate to strong, independent men who make their own decisions and don’t need a woman to complete them. That’s the type of man that Robert is, and that’s the type of man that we want to be ourselves.
We’ve always found that it’s easier for us to find a celebrity we’ve never heard of rather than searching for one who already has a sizable audience. So, for the most part, we don’t listen to or watch celebrity gossip, but it’s nice to see that even non-fans are now discovering the charm of these extraordinary individuals.
