Eva and Ryan look like they went to the same place for cosmetic work. Their cheeks look eerily similar

[shesalllthatt]

I don’t understand why beautiful people mess up their face😢Eva has always been so beautiful!

[eviefromthemummy]

I personally prefer your "rough" videos. I like it when you're speaking off the cuff, like we're chatting in person, it's more relaxed

[lasenoradelacruz]

Ryan Gosling isn’t a stranger to procedures either! His shiny full cheeks look botoxed and filled

[mybabba]

Whatever she had done, it looks worse than before. What a shame.

[FishareFriendsNotFood]

OH MY GOD THANK YOU!!! I was so so eager for you to cover this the second I saw her, I was so perplexed

[TombCat]

Eva Mendes always had a Raquel Welch or Sophia Loren kind of look. In that some of her features are quite large or square and taken at a glance, it's not a mathematically 'pretty' face. Yet they were all gorgeous and facially voluptuous, sexy women. Lots of hair, tanned skin, healthy looking.

The overfilled cheeks and imobile lip make Eva's jawline and chin appear so projected now - like it's all sliding forward and down. It doesn't even look like filler or fat transfer. Her lower face appears both sharp and swollen at once. It doesn't make sense, at the moment. Whatever is going on detracts from her beautiful eyes and trademark smile.

Shakira also looks different recently.

[vickimanager]

Both she and Ryan most likely had cheek work done at the same surgeon's office. He looks :( with his big, low cheeks.

I am really struggling to understand why her chin and jawline look so different as well (or am I seeing that wrong?) So I'd love a full analysis. I'd also love a video about the topic of 'imperfect' beauty. To me she is so beautiful not DESPITE having some features that are outside of the beauty ideal but BECAUSE of these features. I can't help but suspect a 'cookie cutter' approach to her plastic surgery, e.g. wanting her nose to be shorter/smaller and I also can't help but feel that this approach is misguided for unique (yet stunning) beauty like hers.

The lower half of her face is protruding while the upper half is backwards.

Please do Jennifer Connelly when you can! She has changed ALOTTT. Also Ester Exposito would be an interesting one too!!

Poorly done plastic surgery (as compared to well done plastic surgery) can fall into the 'uncanny valley'. The 'uncanny valley' is a where a computer-generated figure or humanoid robot bearing a near-identical resemblance to a human being arouses a sense of unease or revulsion in the person viewing it. There's been a ton of money poured into research on this recently because tech companies want to make the most user liked AI. The biological reason for this is human brains are highly sensitive to how other human's faces 'should' display emotions and expression, because even extremely subtle ways an expression is 'off' spells danger to the lizard parts of our brain (that person is tricking you, run). Back in caveman days, we learned to be very good at reading micro expressions to determine if another human was a real friend or foe (same reason some people get the 'ick' around psychopaths). This response is largely unconscious and hard to articulate because it's one of our most primitive responses, ironically in the same way finding a face 'beautiful' is hard to articulate.

The problem is the difference between 'well done, you look great!' and 'uncanny valley, you make my reptile brain uneasy' is such a THIN THIN line, it's so easy to 'mess up' and then women get severely punished. I have so much empathy for women (and sometimes men) who walk that line, fall into the uncanny valley, and then have to deal with how their face makes people uneasy. So saying, for me personally, Eva's face in the interview had the 'uncanny valley' problem for me and my lizard brain is soothed by hearing Lorry explain what could have set it off in this instance. Thank you 🙂

The tip of her nose looks quite a bit shorter, and I really miss how it looked before. Really wish she hadn't changed it!!! It looked so sophisticated in profile and ¾ view. We see a lot more nostril now which I'm not a big fan of personally.

[Sunflowersarepretty]

I would love a full analysis video. I love how respectful you are and overall energy of this video. When I first saw her I knew her cheeks looked different.

[Everymonthisaugust]

Ryan Gosling looks like he’s had something done recently too

[Rainy_Day]

Her facial expression is now in a constant state of shock.

[marajade]

I thought I was being hyper critical when I first saw her face. Glad to hear that I was not the only one.

[Chris-tgqy]

Her look a year ago was beautiful. Attractive women will still look attractive even as they age.

[lisaaustin]

Her nostrils are the only thing I see now when looking at her face. Huge! Her plastic surgeon did what a lot of them do. Bridge work but leave out the tip and nostrils. If you get your nose done research frontal view not just profile. Many surgeons aren’t good enough to be able to handle tip plasty.
