Charlotte Kemp Muhl, longtime partner of Sean Ono Lennon. I thought I looked alright but I feel like a sack of potatoes in comparison! Also she's 36 but somehow looks 22?

A Young Mick Jagger. 1960's-1970's
Exquisite :)

Has anyone said Jennifer Hawkins yet?
A real bombshell.

Sophia Loren. Absolutely gorgeous.

Julie Christie, the '60s movie star. I met her when she was in Australia preparing for a role. She was in her 60s and still a glorious natural beauty, and I dare say she knew it, but she was less about vanity and more about nailing her new film character and working with her young co-stars. I liked how she owned her age and used it to get good roles. BTW, she was tiny. I am 167cm, so not exactly an Amazon, but I towered over her and felt like a T-Rex.

Gillian Anderson in her x files days and Marilyn monroe

The best looking man I’ve seen was an Asian guy, walking down the Kings Road. He was just so striking. I can still see his face, now years later. Great body & poise, too. He had bright blue eyes. I’ve seen Brad Pitt, too. Couldn’t mistake him!

Are we only talking about famous people?

Think in real life we were at dragon boat racing and me and a woman accidentally bumped into each other so we both said sorry and I thought how beautiful she was. Olive skin and dark brown hair, very pretty

madamovaries · 13/12/2023 03:17

Natascha McElhone who is even more beautiful in person than on screen. Looked like an angel. She’s also utterly lovely.
Idris Elba is gorgeous.
Helena Bonham-Carter has the most extraordinary bone structure - think we slightly forget quite how naturally beautiful she is because she’s usually photographed in quite outlandish fashion.

I was watching Chicago with a friend last night and I said then that in her heyday, Catherine Zeta Jones was just incredible. She’s ruined herself with fillers now 😔

I can’t remember the actor’s name and he never made it big, but he was in the 2001 revival of Crossroads. I’d seen him in the show and he was obviously good looking, but when I saw him in real life (I lived in Nottingham at the time and it was filmed there) I couldn’t get over it. He had these incredibly blue eyes and I honestly just stared at him. He noticed too 🙈

In non-celebrity examples, I saw a man at Canary Wharf tube once who just turned me into a goggle-eyed idiot. No way could I have spoken to him; I would have just stared and gibbered.

I read an article years ago where this fashion journalist talked about the most beautiful celebrities she’d ever seen. She said she’d seen Julie Christie without even realising it was her and that she was the most beautiful woman she’d ever seen in her life.

Audrey Hepburn

WavingCatsandDogs · 13/12/2023 04:06

Charlotte Kemp Muhl looks a bit like Joanne Whalley when she was younger but not as beautiful.

groovergirl · 13/12/2023 04:29

@StockpotSoup re Julie Christie, was that the piece by Maggie Alderson in which she described how Julie said glamour and sex appeal were all just a trick and she could turn "it" on at a second's notice? Then proceeded to do as the two walked across the road? I can confirm Maggie's words if so.
I'd love to see Julie Christie in more film and TV roles. We need more senior women playing formidable characters, and this is the golden age of long-form televisual storytelling, so ...

I’ve met Margot Robbie and Penelope Cruz in real life and holy macaroni, they’re both exquisite.
Angelina Jolie, Rachel Weiz, Claudia Schiffer and Jodie Comer are very beautiful. Michelle Keegan is stunning too, especially when she started in corrie, I remember telling my husband that she’s so gorgeous.
Oh and Selena Gomez is gorgeous.
Pamela Anderson too. Back in the 90’s, just wow, her face is just so beautiful.

The Hadid sisters and Kylie Jenner are all lovely looking now but they’ve all had a lot of work done. They still look lovely.

I did never get the appeal of certain popular perceived “beautiful” women though; like Jennifer Aniston, Britney Spears, Rhianna, Beyoncé etc. Which just goes to show that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Which is just beautiful.

PS, I am SO happy someone said Nigella as I’m her doppelgänger from when she was in her 30’s 😂 just need to try and stay on track and keep up with her beautifulness!

garlictwist · 13/12/2023 05:36

Keira knightly in bend it like beckham and love actually. She was just so pretty.

Ladyofthelake53 · 13/12/2023 05:51

Rufus Sewell
Colin Salmon
Monica Bellucci
Sophia Loren
Rachel Weisz
Nigella

To name but a few

Ladyofthelake53 · 13/12/2023 05:56

Elvis Presley

CumbersomeRobes · 13/12/2023 06:05

For some reason I keep seeing clips pop up on social media for a (I think) Turkish show called Magnificent Century. The actress playing a character called Hurrem is just captivating. The show looks rubbish but I watch the clips just to stare at her!

CumbersomeRobes · 13/12/2023 06:07

This is her but she's even more beautiful in motion - if that makes sense

Who are the most beautiful people you've ever seen?

Hail, @SandTigerSharkFart . I have never seen 2 people look more drop dead gorgeous than Dan and Violet in the video for Kiss from a Rose. Never heard a better version of the song, either. It leaves them all, even Seal and the Pentatonix, in the dust.

The Palestinians especially Sukar (pew pew boom boom)

Tulipsroses · 13/12/2023 06:55

I think Monica Bellucci has this captivating god like presence. If you watched "Malena" you can see this, the actress doesn't say a word in the film but just melts all the men around her.
On the other hand Julia Roberts with her charisma.
For men: Marlon Brando, Paul Newman, Cary Grant, James Steward. Marcello Mastroianni
No more men in Hollywood just boys.
