The Enormous Celebrity Transformations Ever to Take Place in the History of Film and Music Industries (2 of 5)

BEYONCE

THEN:

She used to be the lead singer of the group Destiny’s Child whose first album released in 1997. She was hardly 16 when she started on her career as a singer. Of course, she went onto become a popular start in the near future, but her start was small.

However, Destiny’s Child disbanded in 2002. Born and raised in Houston, she started making a name by performing in school talent shows. Her first acting career commenced a few years after Destiny’s Child disbanded, as she played a role in Carmen: A Hip Opera.

Comedy was surprisingly becoming her forte. However, we hardly remember her a such. For us, she was this little brown girl with immense talent, which did not get to see the light of day yet.

NOW:

Married to Jay Z and mother of a little daughter called Ivy, Beyonce gained huge popularity in the coming years. Adored by everyone and a popular household name, she won five Grammys back in 2004 which was her pivotal night.

With 23 Grammys and 66 nominations, Beyonce has made a huge impact on pop culture. Her career only skyrocketed in the years to come, and she has performed at the SuperBowl a ton of times.

Her union with Jay Z did contribute to her power. They evolved through their marriage and battled problems, and even toured together! Beyonce and her husband are now known as the ‘power couple’ of the industry.

She is also famous for her role in “Black Lives Matter.” Her scandalous and ethical life is looked up to by people of all ages now.

CHRIS PRATT

THEN:

Chris Pratt started on his acting career at a very young age. He had multiple debuts in the horror movie ‘Cursed Part 3’, and soon bagged a more regular role as Harold Brighton Abbott in the popular tv series called Everwood. Soon enough, he scored a more permanent job in an NBC tv series called Parks and Recreation.

He started on his acting career back in the early 2000s. When he was just 19, Chris was waiting at a table of Bubba Gump Shrimp Company, where he was noticed by director Rae Dawn Chong. From there, his career started to take baby steps towards success.

However, the early Chris Pratt we know mostly had a geeky aura about him, playing the ‘good guy next door’ in most of the roles he’d be cast in. Sweet and funny, he was perceived as this down to earth and innocent actor.

NOW:

After Parks and Rec ended, Chris transformed into this brand new person whose popularity and growth witnessed exponential growth. He lost a major amount of weight (even grew a subtle beard!), he managed to nab roles in Guardians of the Galaxy.

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy and its sequels, along with Avengers gave Chris Pratt an enormous amount of recognition. He eventually became a bonafide sex symbol, changing from the “good guy next door” to the leading actor in most movies.

His style became more sophisticated and sleek as fame followed him around. It’s almost hard to believe that he ever played silly Andy! He was married to Anna Faris for nine years, since 2009. However, it broke off, and currently, he’s with Katherine Schwarzenegger.

KHLOE KARDASHIAN

THEN:

We all met Khloe back in 2007 with soft, minimal features and a healthy body. Even though she belonged to the Kardashian family, and was a major star of Keeping Up With the Kardashians show, she received a lot of backlash for her beauty and her body.

She did have a beautiful, curvy body but her shape was way different back then. Her face as way fuller, and she wore a lot less makeup. Also, unlike her sisters Kim, Kylie, and Kendall – she could not bag much popularity.

Back then when her sisters were the talk of the town, Khloe was merely one of them who existed, and mostly talked about negatively regarding her looks and her pear-shaped body.

NOW:

Khloe changed over the years, and she flaunts a tremendous transformation. By 2012 she has lost almost more than half of her weight, with snatched features such as her waistline and curves.

She also changed her hair a ton of times from brown to blonde streaks to completely bleached, back and forth. Rumors are that she underwent a nose surgery as well, along with other features of her face to create a sharper look.

She was married to Lamar Odom, but recently the story of Jordyn Jones (Kylie’s ex-best friend) and Lamar Odom getting cozy surfaced the internet. It was proved later that Lamar had been cheating on Khloe, time and again throughout their marriage.

This created an uproar and resulted in Khloe separating from her to-be husband. She has an adorable daughter named True.
