Fans and a few beauty industry professionals say there may be “no doubt” that singer Gwen Stefani has had some facial work done.

After her spectacular return to host “The Voice”, the leader of a 90s band that mixed rock, pop and hip-hop music, many are saying how unrecognizable she looks.

Even though Stefani has been in the general public eye for over three many years, she’s still one of probably the most beautiful women in Hollywood, but fans think she just doesn’t appear like the person they fell in love with when she was within the group No Doubt or made her debut along with his solo project “I’m Just a Girl” in 1995.

On Monday, October 21, the “Blow Your Mind” singer showed up together with her signature blonde locks, but made her debut with a blunt bang on the NBC competition show.

Her makeup was subtle and included peach shades, but despite her hairstyle change, many individuals speculated that she can have undergone cosmetic procedures.

After posting promotional photos on X, some fans shared their thoughts, with a mixture of admiration and skepticism.

Some admired her youthful appearance, others questioned the changes.

“How can you look younger and younger?” one fan wrote, while one other he said“The Hollywood look is really getting old.”

Experts he said Daily Mail that they believed the singer had work done and based on what they saw, they provided a clinical diagnosis of her face.

Dr. Corey Maas, a facial plastic surgeon in San Francisco, suggested that the fullness of Stefani’s cheeks could also be due to fillers, which help smooth wrinkles and restore volume.

He also noted the tightness of her jawline, noting that “a 55-year-old woman just doesn’t have a jawline like that.”

Maas further suspected that behind her flawless appearance could be a lower face lift, which, if true, would involve tightening the skin round her lower face.

Dr. Maas added that Stefani’s lack of deep wrinkles, which often appear in her late 20s, could also indicate Botox use. Additionally, he noted that while her bangs may distract from any signs of a facelift, it’s unlikely that the fuller appearance of her cheeks is due to the hairstyle change alone.

Another New York-based facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Joel Kopelman, agreed with Maas, suggesting that she could have had a mini facelift, specializing in the looks of her jaw and lower face.

“Looking at Gwen’s recent appearance, especially her smooth jawline and lack of sagging around the cheeks and neck, a mini facelift may have contributed to these results,” he said.

Not everyone criticized the artist. One person criticized the publication, saying: “Two photos taken 18 years apart and MoL says he looks unrecognizable! Most people don’t appear like they did 18 years ago.

Another said: “I think it looks great.”

Other experts also spoke out.

Popular YouTuber Dr. Gary Linkov speculates that Stefani can have spent as much as $428,000 on no less than nine different procedures, including fillers and a brow lift.

Meanwhile, Dr. Michael Bassiri-Tehrani identified that Stefani’s plump cheeks suggest the use of fillers because facial fat tends to decrease with age.

Many people commented on the outlet’s comments section, saying she didn’t need it and sharing their frustrations with celebrities who do unnecessary work.

“I watched The Voice last night and I almost didn’t recognize her,” one person wrote. “My first thought was that he now has bangs to cover the facelift scars.”

Another wrote: “Yes, the (hideous) wig is apparently intended to hide facelift scars before they heal.”

Some people said, “I like Gwen, but she fixes her face too much” and “I went too far, honey.”

“As Joe Gillis from the legendary movie Sunset Boulevard says, ‘There’s nothing tragic about being 50 unless you are trying to be 25.’ I’ll leave it at that,” another person added.

“It’s really sad. “Cosmetic surgery began to be performed on people who needed it, such as those who had been in a car accident or suffered severe burns,” said one commenter, before adding, “Gwen didn’t need it. Her appearance didn’t improve one bit.

Stefani herself hasn’t publicly addressed the speculation, though she did say so once in a 2004 People story interview“I hope my children will protect me from my vanity. If not, cosmetic surgery is an option… Growing up sucks. We all have to accept this.”

Regardless of what treatments she has or has not undergone, the Grammy winner continues to reinvent herself and remains to be a beauty. Her fans could also be divided over her appearance, however the singer’s evolving appearance stays a testament to her status as a popular culture icon.

There will be multiple truths in any given situation at the same time. This is the case in the peculiar case of former Pittsburgh Steelers great Antonio Brown and Le’Veon Bell’s recent foray into politics to support Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. It’s true that each of them are sitting opposite sides spectrum from Steelers icons and NFL Hall of Famers “Mean” Joe Greene and Jerome Bettis and F. “Dok” Harris, son of the late Franco Harris, who all expressed their support for Democratic presidential candidate, Vice President Kamala Harris. Indeed, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense hasn’t been this explosive since Brown, a former All-Pro wide receiver, and Bell, a former All-Pro guard, left the team for their very own separate but controversial reasons. And it’s true that these two combined for 1,149 catches while playing in Pittsburgh. None of those receptions resulted in Brown or Bell picking up a tip.

Simply put, Brown and Bell is the 2024 installment of the series Diamond and silk.

Brown and Bell joined Trump on the campaign trail last weekend in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, as the campaign entered its final days. Brown also organized a voter registration drive in the state – what many experts consider as a key to Trump or Harris’ path to the White House next month. Brown’s decision to enter the election cycle is his right. He’s a noteworthy (and infamous) figure, and the art of celebrity endorsements now enjoys various degrees of prestige. This is a logical method to have a look at the situation. This is obviously an illogical situation.

Last week at a campaign rally in Atlanta Trump said that blacks and Latinos who didn’t vote for him “must have their heads examined.” The irony is that Trump has brought greater than that over the last week Brown and Bell on stage, but in addition former five-division boxing champion Thomas “The Hitman” Hearns. The latter’s slurred speech worsened over the years, probably because of this of head trauma.

Calling Brown and Bell a “sellout” is unfair. This has to do with the belief that they ever cared enough about the Black community to not ignore when someone was manipulating them in the first place. Listing all the examples of racism in Trump’s history is not even the most important point, but all of these examples have occurred in the last month. He continues torment five famous black and Latino people as the Exonerated Five, blaming them for the gang rape of a jogger in Central Park in 1989, which they didn’t commit. (Trump then ran full-page ads in newspapers I’m calling teenagers marked for execution. He never apologized). In the podcast episode released on October 14 this 12 months. Trump said he quit football because he was afraid to play with guys from “bad neighborhoods”. If schools insist on teaching about slavery, he said recentlythey might not be funded under his latest administration, and the Department of Education would stop to exist. In an interview with Fox News, despite checking the facts, Trump refused to backtrack on baseless comments he and running mate J.D. Vance made about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, who kidnapped and ate pets. (Brown is from Miami, where he lives largest Haitian community in America.)

Why Brown is supporting Trump is obvious. This is not about any political or moral considerations. It’s about accessing the proximity of power. This is because for some, hatred is a way of advancement. And despite quite a few proposed laws that might have a direct and negative impact on individuals who appear like Brown (namely Project 2025), he couldn’t care less.

“I would be the man in the office. House of Representatives or something like that.” Brown said while handing out Trump-Vance Steeler-themed “Terrible Towels” before Sunday’s Steelers/New York Jets game. “Trump is going to put me in the Senate.”

Whether he was serious or not, Brown should examine how Wilt Chamberlain, then the most famous skilled basketball player in the world, after contributing to the campaign in the hotly contested 1968 presidential election, quickly realized how much he was getting used as a puppet as a way to gain black approval that it might never arrive in significant waves anyway. Then-President Richard Nixon sent cards to great games. But Chamberlain said in his memoirs that he “had about as much opportunity to influence (Nixon) as I have to influence the Pope.”

If Brown was bathing in ignorance – most important personality trait in his public persona, very similar to Trump – Bell’s wardrobe was equally pathetic. Bell put on his shirt on the weekend under the slogan “Trump or the bum”. Again, like Brown, he has every right to support Trump. But openly disrespecting the vice chairman, a Black woman, is par for the course in the energy and behavior that has accompanied Trump’s surge in support. This is not about politics, because such discourse was never the goal. This self-considering is destructive. It has the same moral character. Masculinity is hyper-pervasive.

Bell would never wear or support a shirt that read “Harris vs. Deadbeat Dads,” as Trump, Bell and Brown have been accused of doing. Brown was arrested last 12 months for failure to pay alimony, and in 2021 Bell was blown away by one of the six moms of his seven children as “the worst f***ing man on the planet.” Or perhaps “Harris vs. Sexual Predators,” as Trump and Brown have been referred to in the past. Or perhaps “Harris vs. Failed Athletic Directors” because Trump’s tenure in the USFL has been a tortuous one still higher than what Brown was (or was) presupposed to achieve as president at the Donda Sports agency of rapper Kanye West.

This is a classic example of opportunists combining with other opportunists to extend their opportunities. However, just one side gains something necessary. It’s hard to assume a scenario by which an undecided voter allows Brown or Bell to be a source of convincing them to lean toward a selected candidate. Either way, it gives Trump two more celebrity pawns on his warped worldview on the chessboard. He picks up two more votes amongst the small but exceptionally vocal group of Black men who support Trump – a potentially necessary voting bloc in next month’s election. When it involves Brown and Bell, the optics paint an image of these two former football greats missing out on the political turmoil. It’s just as likely that they know they’re being rushed, but the thought that somebody of similar character could turn into president of the United States again is confirmation enough to never change their ways.

Let’s hope Brown and Bell, because of their time and commitment to the campaign process, no less than get an enormous cut from McDonald’s from this deal. On the other hand, paying off debt is not the most rewarding trait of their candidate.

60-year-old Oscar winner Nicolas Cage took part in the popular event film festival with his fifth wife, Riko Shibata.

Previously, the nephew of “The Godfather” director Francis Ford Coppola was married to 4 other women. However, recent photos of Cage and his wife of three years have recently caused some controversy on the Internet.

Cage reportedly met Riko in 2020 while filming “Prisoners of the Spirit Realm” in Shiga, Japan. They got married at the Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas in February 2021, after Cage proposed via FaceTime, as noted in interview on his brother Marc Coppola’s Q1043 radio show in New York in August 2020.

The couple has one daughter, 2-year-old August Francesca Cage, who was born over a yr later, in September 2022. He was 58 years old at the time.

Cage and 31-year-old Riko seen each wore black outfits while in Orange County, California for the twenty fifth annual Newport Beach Film Festival, which takes place October 17-24. She opted for a dress with an identical handbag and heels, while the National Treasure star added white to her black button-down shirt.

When the Daily Mail shared photos of the couple online, the comments section appeared to focus less on their outfits and more on the nearly 30-year age difference between Cage and the Kyoto, Japan native.

“Personally, I would not have much in common with a partner half my age, which could be a deal breaker for me. But to every his own,” said one commentator.

Someone else suggested: “He looks 18 at most. Of course, he’s interested in women who seem like children. I’m sure you possibly can name it.

Nicolas Cage has received some positive reactions. For example, one person wrote: “Looks good, they seem happy. Happy wife, good life.”

However, a critic of the “Face/Off” actor wrote: “I wouldn’t marry a guy who has 4 ex-wives.” Another commenter asked, “How many marriages has this guy been through?”

Before his first marriage, Cage welcomed his first son, Weston, in December 1990 after dating actress Christina Fulton for 2 years. The two have been seen in public at various red carpet events and movie premieres.

Fellow Oscar winner Patricia Arquette (56) was Cage’s first wife, who was five years younger than him. The Bringing Out the Dead collaborators married in April 1995 and divorced in 2001.

Lisa Marie Presley, the late daughter of Elvis and Priscilla Presley, was Cage’s second wife. They married in August 2002, when she was 34 and he was 38.

Nicolas Cage he filed for divorce from Marie after three months, citing irreconcilable differences. Their divorce was finalized in May 2004.

In February 2004, 40-year-old Cage met Alice Kim. The former waitress living in Los Angeles was 19 years old at the time. Two months later, they married on a personal ranch in Northern California and welcomed their son, Kal-El, born in October 2005.

“When my mother-in-law came home for the first time, before I even said hello or it was nice to meet you, all I heard was, ‘She’s too young!’ So I knew it was going to be an uphill battle,” Cage said Guardian in 2013.

He and Kim separated in January 2016 and finalized their divorce later that yr. Then, around 2018, he began a discreet relationship with makeup artist Erika Koike.

In March 2019, the “Wild at Heart” actor and Koike tied the knot in an impromptu wedding in Las Vegas, but he filed for an annulment 4 days later.

According to ExplosionCage claimed that he and Koike “drank to an inebriated state” before the wedding ceremony. In June 2019, he obtained a divorce.

As for his latest fiancée, Cage expressed how comfortable he’s with Riko. He wore a black Tom Ford tuxedo to the wedding, and she or he wore a home made Japanese wedding kimono from Kyoto as they exchanged vows in front of guests, which included Cage’s ex-wife, Alice.

“I’m really happily married. I do know five is quite a bit,” he added he said in a 2022 interview with the Los Angeles Times about his fifth marriage. However, I believe I got it right this time, he added.

Nicolas Cage booked his first film role in the 1982 teen film “Fast Times at Ridgemont High.” His filmography also includes “Leaving Las Vegas”, “The Rock”, “Con Air”, “In 60 Seconds”, “National Treasure”, “Lord of Warm” and “Kick-Ass”.
