I was wondering, why she hadn´t made any major movies, lately. Now I know why. She´s also a living reminder, to stay away, from plastic surgery.

You probably wouldn't think that images from the Elle Magazine 21 Annual Women in Hollywood event that took place yesterday could be all that shocking - and, to be honest, neither did we.

Then, though, we caught a glimpse of Renée Zellweger, and it couldn't be much more shocking if it tried - because she looks totally different.

The Academy Award-nominated actress is virtually unrecognizable - and it got us thinking...

About the new images (which you can see below), sure. But also about way back in 1996, when Jerry Maguire became pretty much everyone's favorite movie...


Now, sure, we all loved Tom Cruise being all adorable and a changed man and all, and yeah, Cuba Gooding Jr. was awesome, but there was more to it than that.

Specifically, there was this, as Dorothy Boyd, the film's main female character, pulled off this classic line:


One of the most iconic moments in modern cinema, which also just happened to thrust a certain Renée Zellweger into the hearts of millions.

But, then, in 2010, she pretty much dropped off the face of moviedom...

Until, that is, her recent appearance at the Elle Magazine 21 Annual Women in Hollywood event this past Monday.

At which...she didn't look a single thing like Renée Zellweger.

The New Renée


Now, we here at Moviepilot aren't in the business of judging people on their looks - especially since this writer looks an awful lot like an extra from a Star Wars cantina scene when he wakes up in the morning - but, honestly, we genuinely struggled to grasp that this was the same woman who played Bridget Jones just over ten years ago...


And, y'know what? That's totally her choice - and it's not as though she's ever been anything less than striking, if that matters - but it still seems kind of strange that a beautiful, talented 45-year old woman felt she had to change her appearance this much.

And, y'know what? From a movie-lovers perspective, we just kind miss our Dorothy Boyd, our Roxie Hart, and our Bridget Jones.

Especially as there's still Bridget Jones's Baby to be made...

whoah. I thought of this right away.

[HeyPete]

I wonder if her landing Tom Cruise in a movie now would be realistic?

Careful, saying that could be a sex crime !

[DannyAlberta]

what a decline.

she's 45. looks 55 plus in that.

[Lizard King]

Has she had facial surgery?

I like how most of the media refer to this as a 'new look', implying that getting facial surgery to change your appearance is in no way an indication of some kind of psychological disorder.

[spokepoker]

She looked better with the chipmunk face.
Did her face get super saggy or something? What made her get the facelift? (I'm assuming that's what happened)

It wasn't realistic back then.

Someone needs to introduce her to chapstick

I do get a laugh out of some of the comments asking how good do you think you would look in a picture taken 15 years after the initial one.

Fuck 15, how about 18?



Yet more proof that men age like wine, women age like milk.

Exhibit B: Sir Patrick Stewart.



Why fear old age?

I'm not the biggest fan of Tom Cruise, but the playa has aged very well. By all accounts he is quite a clean living dude (no booze, plenty or exercise).

And the Renee Zellweger 'transformation' is just plain disturbing.

[Drazen]

She was never hot to begin with, she just got older.

[Simeon_Strangelight]

That's disturbing and not surprising.

The Top Gun crew:



Guys can ruin their look basically through fat (though not as much as women) or extremely unhealthy lifestyle. Women just fade away even without doing much. Though some have better plastic surgeries than others - part of it is your genetics and how changes in your facial structure are dealing with the operations.

Also funny the poll in the article:

YES - SHE LOOKS THE SAME: 50
NO - would not recognize her: 1250+
She can do what she wants with her body: 170

I guess even women are not buying that crap. I guess Bridget Jones 3 won't be happening.

[kbell]

What happened to her eyes, lips must have been worked on.

[eRod]

What a shame for Zellweger. I had always admire her cuteness back in the days. Sucks to be an aging actress.

[Quintus Curtius]

Wish I hadn't seen that photo of Val Kilmer. What a tragedy. Reminds me of Brando. No bloody excuse for that.

At lease Anthony Edwards is in shape. Not much he can do about his hair, except own his baldness, which is fine. Kelly McGillis, who was married twice and has kids, apparently now considers herself a "lesbian."

Go figure.

See Robert de Niro. Guess he loves pasta a bit too much these days.
