She’s just so gorgeous! Want to look like her.

Really enjoying her new series on Netflix, love every outfit (aside from a shiny puffy jacket maybe)

She’s a Northerner too, so extra points 😂

I thought she was younger than she is though

She's had too much work done now. I get the nose job as that's made a huge difference but otherwise she was far prettier before. She really didn't need all the rest.

I was distracted by the weird knitted skin directly above her eyebrows. Another brow lift?

Thequeenofwishfulthinking · 05/01/2024 03:44

I think she’s had a few nose jobs, fillers to cheeks, lips and jaw, boob jobs, bottom implants, various liposuction sessions, brow lifts and maybe some other reconstructions?
Her face is unrecognisable.

Thequeenofwishfulthinking · 05/01/2024 03:45

Oh and veneers of course.

Howbizzare22 · 05/01/2024 04:10

It always blows my mind when I read people saying how “beautiful “ she is. I simply do not get it…MASSIVELY overrated, both before and after surgery

Howbizzare22 · 05/01/2024 04:48

Another vote here for Natalie Anderson. Now she is ridiculously, Disney style beautiful. Michelle has nothing on her in the looks department imo!
As for all the “sexiest woman” awards i know that Michelle’s dad is very high up in the Masons and had these arranged. Also some of the early acting roles. She has had literally no acting training before her role on Corrie. I wouldn’t be surprised if she is the OP or someone close to her is- she has a HUGE ego. In her early career she used to regularly call the press to say “I’m about to be Tesco in half an hour if you want pictures “ as she wanted to create a “down to earth image.” I know a lot of celebrities do this as image is everything but it’s just so fake!

Olivegardenishome · 05/01/2024 04:58

She really is beautiful. I remember her in her first episode of coronation street and even then I said “wow, she’ll grow up and be so beautiful” (she’s not much younger than me!).
When you Google before and after images, they seem to pick the most unflattering angles for the “before” to emphasise the difference in face shape, however, if you Google her first images as Tina McIntyre, her nose or jawline hasn’t changed significantly, and can be attributed to aging.

She is stunning, has a body to die for and is a tremendous actress too. She reminds me of Suranne Jones (think that’s how it’s spelt?). Surgery or not, she’s naturally beautiful. You can’t polish a turd and all that!
Plus beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Some of these comments are horrible. Women disecting how another woman looks. I bet the ones saying nasty things about her look like boiled up shit.

Oh come on now. You can’t possibly believe that 😂

squigglygiggly · 04/01/2024 23:05

Oh please. She's had EVERYTHING done. Ageing doesn't reshape your nose ffs.
Brow lift, nose (more than once), lip filler, jaw line filler, veneers which is weird as her teeth were fine. But now they look plastic.

I think she’s truly beautiful but this is correct. I spoke to a beautician friend (invasive beauty) and she said the same, nose job, brow lift and probable work to her actual eyelids since her hooded eyes are now completely different, cheek filler, very very good lip fillers, significant chin fillers to drop her chin, jawline work, Botox in various places and filler in marionette lines.

my response was “oh, so you can’t make me look like that today then..”

she definitely looks very much like she’s related to Suranne Jones.

Zanatdy · 05/01/2024 06:12

I think she’s a great actress and very pretty. I don’t think the work she’s had done is terrible, up to her I guess. I love their new house, I joined the Instagram for the new house and it’s literally a dream home (for me!). Maybe without the outdoor pool though, a lot of upkeep for such little time in it!

Bestyearever2024 · 05/01/2024 06:13

She does look very different. But still beautiful

I feel it's sad that any woman feels the need to have so much work done , but I guess it's her money , her face and she's the one in the public eye , so it's what some they do.
Must be a lot of pressure to be under

Princesspollyyy · 05/01/2024 06:24

I do like her, and like everything she has been in. But I don't think she's a great actress no. She has the name Manc accent in every role, she essentially plays herself in everything. Always looks the same, sounds the same.

Look at a talented actress like Jodie Comer. That's a talented actress. All the different accents she has done, different roles, etc.

the80sweregreat · 05/01/2024 06:32

Looks wise I tend to put her and Suranne Jones and Cheryl Cole in the same bracket ( brown eyes, chiseled features etc)
All different women , but just have a similar kind of look

whirlingdevonish · 05/01/2024 06:40

I was very distracted by her lips. They are the giveaway. They have that sticky out ridged edge kind of look. That said she is actually beautiful and can act. And I suppose her character might have had lots of work done!
But natural beauty that ain't!

Jodie Comer is brilliant and I think she is incredibly beautiful as well

Dannexe · 05/01/2024 06:42

If you look at very old pictures of Suranne Jones she looks extremely similar to old pictures of Michelle Keegan. SJ hasn’t had all the work done and so isn’t nearly as symmetrical now but I think if MK hadn’t had all that work she’d now look very very much like SJ.

edited to add that obviously there’s a big age difference

No one is saying she looks horrible. Quite the reverse; there seems to be a lot of love for Keegan on here. But I do think that if you want to have an unrealistic version of yourself beamed at high definition into people's living rooms it's to be expected that viewers will notice and remark. After all, why have noticeable work done to your face if you don't want people to notice you?
And the flip side is it can also make other women feel a little bit sh:t about themselves, seeing such unachievable beauty. Not a very sisterly thing to do when you really think about it.
But yeah - she's had distracting work done, but can still act, and seems likeable.

“Probably” had her lips done? Looks natural? This thread demonstrates how the very “done” face is becoming normalised.

Ah yes - completely agree with this. It’s terrifying the extent to which we have normalised and venerated an aesthetic that isn’t real, something completely manufactured. We are losing sight of what normal faces look like. The pressure for girls and women to look like something that isn’t real is a huge problem.

People in the public eye having surgery and tweakments (along with those that lie about it - such pernicious gaslighting) fuels this miserable fire. I sometimes look at pictures of celebrities from the 90’s and am horrified at how faces have changed. This isn’t just tastes in fashion and make up. We’re at the stage now where a normal un-surgically altered face is the exception, not the rule.

Justleaveitblankthen · 05/01/2024 06:58

I have tried to watch her in stuff, but I can't concentrate on her storylines and can't put aside how unreal her 'look' would be for the role she is supposed to be playing.

Women who emigrated to Oz in the '60's didn't have orange skin and obvious lip fillers.
Maybe this is why that series was filmed in those weird Sepia tones 🤔

Sarah Lancashire is beautiful and utterly absorbing as an Actress. As is Siobhan Finnernan.

If someone starts a thread saying how gorgeous someone is of course some people are going to disagree. Why does it mean the person disagreeing is ugly or jealous? And of course people will comment if there’s surgery. Whenever there’s threads about “hot” men on here there is never the same accusations. Do you think Tom Hardy gets upset that some MNs find him awful? I love him but then I do not get the Cumberbatch love, do you think he gets upset by the otter memes?

bearring · 05/01/2024 07:03

I do think it’s odd that surgery shouldn’t be commented on because as you say unrealistic beauty standards etc.

Mumofyellows · 05/01/2024 07:07

She's beautiful, I actually didn't realise she has had lots done but looking at the before and after I can see it now, I guess the pressure in the industry must be immense though with everyone seemingly doing the same and needing to keep up to get roles...good on her for this new show, it's pretty good (although some bits I'm finding a bit cheesy!) and she has done well for herself.

NahHumBrag · 05/01/2024 07:13

She seems like a likeable person but the series is dire (the storyline is ridiculous and the acting from all except the young copper and the ‘sponsor’ is dreadful - like watching live action Scooby Doo).

She’s clearly very beautiful but clearly had a shit tonne of work (and the lighting director worked hard to hide the telltale lip filler line on her top lip - the execs / director needed her to be credible).

Fair play to her - not my style but her face and all that.
