It’s hard to imagine that, once upon a time, today’s megastars rose to fame by appearing as extras and taking on various cameo roles. And can you imagine any of the young stars nowadays eclipsing the fame of Brad Pitt, Nicole Kidman, or Angelina Jolie? But why not? They themselves once took the places of Elizabeth Taylor, Goldie Hawn, and Jack Nicholson.

Despite the global beauty standards that we see in glamorous magazines and fashion shows, every nation has its own unique features, traditions, and customs that are related to female beauty. For example, while people in other countries spend a lot on straightening their teeth, in Japan, women pay to make their teeth look snaggled. So we can say that beauty is indeed a relative term.

Sir Nigel John Dermot Neill who we know as the popular actor, director, and producer Sam Neill, was born in Northern Ireland. Soon his family moved to New Zealand where he grew up and started his career. And later in life, he opened a farm there. Currently, the actor helps abused and neglected animals and entertains himself by naming them after the actors he knows.

There are days when everything seems to be against you. And nowadays, many people take to the Internet to complain about their misfortunes, trying to blow off some steam by posting about it online.

“Miss Universe” is one of the most prestigious beauty contests in the world. It’s been conducted since 1952 and is a part of the Big Four international beauty pageants, along with “Miss World,” “Miss International,” and “Miss Earth.”

The number of families where children are raised by a single parent is growing year by year. Scientists decided to find out whether single parenting has negative effects on children’s behavior. It turned out that the children raised in such families behave just like their peers who have both parents.

There are entire teams of professionals responsible for the outfits of stars. This is why it’s pretty normal that every time a celebrity shows up in public, they are discussed a lot. We analyze their clothes, their hair, their makeup, and try to imagine ourselves in these garments. And we rarely think about what these fashion icons really look like when they go shopping or when they meet their friends.

Celebrity parents have varying approaches when it comes to their children’s public lives. Some stars hide their offspring from the public eye, while others proudly post photos of them on social media and bring them to various events. We don’t know which approach is better, but we’re certainly curious to see our favorite celebrities’ kids.

Just as they did centuries ago, modern-day kings and queens wish that their children will, one day, marry other members of the aristocracy. But the heart wants what it wants, and sometimes, members of the royal bloodline fall in love with mere mortals. However, if before, an ordinary girl could marry a prince only in fairy tales, nowadays this dream may well have a chance of becoming reality.

We all have those times when it seems like nothing in the world could get a smile out of you. But some people seem to naturally posses a sense of humour that can brighten even the darkest of times, not only for those around them, but for the rest of us on the Internet, too.

In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it can be easy to forget the importance of creating vivid memories with our loved ones. Luckily, there are people online who can remind us of this, by their own example, and encourage us to take action.

Aging might seem like something negative for some people. Maybe you’re afraid of getting wrinkles, gaining weight, or generally not looking as attractive as you did when you were young. But there are many people who prove that beauty doesn’t fade with age. In contrast, the older you are, the more charming your appearance might become.

Just recently women had to remove most of their body hair. However, as times change, more and more ladies choose to quit shaving. Some celebrities are among them, and they proudly demonstrate their natural beauty.

Chuck Norris plays tough and masculine characters in movies — he’s a martial artist and a black belt in Tang Soo Do, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, and judo. But in real life, he’s a loving and caring husband who is ready to do anything for his significant other.

When we call a wedding “the most important day of one’s life,” we’re kinda putting immense stress and responsibility on newlyweds. So it’s no wonder that some of them want to unwind and, luckily, sometimes weddings take an unexpected turn. Animals photobombing the ceremony, the airline losing the groom’s suit, or a guest’s kid vibing make for the perfect wedding shots and memories.

Sometimes we can feel like the characters of a movie when just dropping by a cafe to have a snack or meet someone over a cup of coffee. There are so many bright people around us — couples in love and just simply weird people. Just by looking at them, you involuntarily start to expect something interesting to happen.

It might seem that in our digital age, people can learn even the slightest details of the celebrities’ lifestyle: what they eat for breakfast, how they spend their vacations, and what their children do. But some celebrities shun the spotlight and try to keep their private life... well... private. This is why their romantic relationships remain unknown to the wider audience.

There’s no one on this planet that doesn’t make mistakes. And when you don’t try very hard, it’s okay that something doesn’t work out. But it’s much worse when you want to do a good job but it goes wrong anyway. However, in both situations, there’s a simple way to benefit from things: take a photo of the result and have a good laugh at it along with people on the Internet.

Many people know about the Wild West only from westerns. But in reality, life there was quite different from how movies depict it. For example, the banks were much safer than even today, and no, the first cowboys were not Americans.

We often wish we could be a fly on the wall to eavesdrop on other people’s conversations or we would like to have an invisible cape to sneak into a room and discover someone’s revealing secrets. Thanks to some very brave Reddit users who opened up and shared their most intimate secrets, all you need now is the power of the internet.
