40 Celebrities Who Look Completely Different Without Their Signature Styles
People scoff at the idea that one little difference can make a person unrecognizable. Really, no-one knew who Clark Kent was when he took off his glasses? And yet, these 40 celebrities all look totally, inexplicably different once they lose a particular trademark. You may not even realize who you’re looking at at first.
40. Elton John without sunglasses
It should come as no surprise that singer Elton John has one of the biggest sunglasses collections in the world. Apparently he has more than 200,000 pairs. Over the years he’s worn feathered sunglasses, neon sunglasses, bejeweled sunglasses… and sometimes, very rarely, no sunglasses. He still wore the hats, though.
39. Reese Witherspoon without blonde hair
Are you ready to be really shocked? Reese Witherspoon, a woman so blonde she was even in a movie called <I>Legally Blonde</i>… is actually a brunette. She proved it when she posted a throwback picture of herself in 2019. So whenever she uses brown hair dye for roles, as she sometimes does, she’s much closer to her natural hair color. That’s going to make the upcoming <I>Legally Blonde 3</i> super awkward!
38. Gwen Stefani without red lipstick
Gwen Stefani loves her red lipstick – she’s been wearing that color since her late teens when her grandmother gifted some to her for Christmas. Remove that shade from her lips, though, and suddenly she looks like a totally different person. Sometimes it’s the tiniest things that make the most difference.
37. Jason Momoa without beard
Everyone loves how Jason Momoa looks with that beard. It’s what he had for Aquaman and Game of Thrones and yep, very good choice there. But come 2019, to the horror of his fans, he shaved the whole thing off. Why? Well, it was to highlight environmental issues – and it worked.
