eyes, hair, lips...magic: the most unforgettable celebrity trademarks and attributes
81
Beautiful faces in Hollywood are a dime a dozen - actors, models social butterflies. Try making a list of the most beautiful, or most handsome celebrities and you'd end up with a hundred and a few thousands more. But this hub is not about the fairest, the most exquisite faces that should launch your ship at a glimpse. This is about those lips, that hair, those eyes that are not necessarily the most aesthetically perfect but somehow unforgettable - making their owners distinct and stand out among the rest.
A case in point. Julia Roberts' lips are not considered objects of envy among women and are not pretty by 'industry' standards yet we are drawn to them. Would she be as easily identifiable had she been born with the next actress' set of smoochers? Or would Jack Nicholson be Jack Nicholson without those brows?
Below are some of the most treasured, cherished and haunting celebrity trademarks, ie facial features and related attributes, that I have ever laid my eyes on - but only in movies of course.

Cris all I gotta say is WOW ! Everyone in your hub is significant and legendary to popular culture. Nice job dude !
@marie
this was made to entertain so I'm glad you enjoyed it. I left the eyes as they were and made sure the color stands out. Thanks for reading :D
@tony
I think the features I singled out are the would-be highlights if one is to make caricatures of them. Thanks for reading :D
OI! Bravo with this one, bravissimo! Perfect picks, all down to Audrey's neck. Though one could argue that Audrey was perfect pretty much in every way, just like Mary Poppins :-)
Hi Cris,
thanks for the great read. I'm glad that Paul Newman and Audrey Hepburn are here.
@elena
hola amiga! Nice to see you back! Well how was it? You should tell us thru a blog of course. Can't wait to see the pics :D
@benson
what's up doc? Nice to see you, it's been a long time. Glad you enjoyed this. Thanks for dropping by :D
Cris A ~ I have but one word about this Hub . . BRILLIANT!
This is awesome!! I love that you ended with Audrey Hepburn!
Hi Cris!
Great pictures. Yes, I love Julia Roberts' mouth, and wouldn't want it any other way. And looking at Freddy Mrecury and Tom Selleck makes me want to grow a stache.
Maybe you forgot some of the most important brows ever -- Marlene Dietrich.
Great Hub!
All the best, Camlo
hi be back later to read in full brilliant pictures
@shari
I have two - THANK YOU! :D
@TM
That's because I can't think of another neck as treasured as Audrey's was. Read somewhere designers during her time were obsessing about it. :D
@camio
Actually I thought of her too but I was more taken by her image more than anything tangible. But you are right...those were killer brows! Thanks for dropping by :D
@brenda
No problem :D
Very cool hub, Cris! You keep on outdoing yourself, my man (when you are going to stop?). I like how you did the eyes, as it was lively and imaginative. I've always said you had good taste!
Like you don't! Haha
I thought the eyes had to have to colors for impact. Glad you liked what I did here. Lucky for me, there's no accounting for good taste! LOL Thanks for reading :D
I really like your opening photo. Magic of photoshop?
But of course! Haha Could you guess the actors who own the faces I used? :D
This was pretty fascinating. I've always wondered what exactly it is, that animal magnetism, that charisma that attracts us unforgettably to certain people in the entertainment industries...
@earl
my thoughts exactly :D
@paradise
I think it's called magic :D
All I can say is...WOW!!! This is truly a fascinating hub!
You are right about the lips of Julia Roberts. My all time favorite however is Audrey Hepburn. I just love everything about her, not just her neck.
You are right, these traits are what give these celebrities their special kind of magic.
Thank you for this hub Cris!
Hey Jill
And thanks to these fascinating people!
Nobody can not like Audrey Hepburn - she's in most everybody's favorites lists.
Thanks for dropping by :D
Nice Hub!!!!!
The hub is hugely enjoyable culminated with tremendous enjoyment and fun. The photographs of Louise Brooks, Jennifer Aniston, Veronica Lake, Farrah Fawcett, Diana Ross, Elvis Presley, Jean Harlow, Jack Nicholson, Brooke Shields, Judy Garland, Lliam Neeson, Barbra Streisand, Gérard Depardieu, Julia Roberts, Sophia Loren, and Angelina Jolie are awesome. The hub can be regarded as one of the most intriguing hub.
Wow thanks for the kind words. And I'm glad you enjoyed the images. Thanks for dropping by :D
Hey, I didn't know Liz Taylor has violet (did I say the right color?) eyes. That's something. Wonder where you got this list? Hmmmmmm.
She has, and it is rumoured too that she has a double row of eyelashes - another rarity.
You can't find this list anywhere else. If you did, I was copied! :D
Great compilation! When I think of famous noses (that sounds very odd and I don't make a habit of it, I assure you!), I think of Sylvester Stalone. Angelina Jolie is foremost when lips come to mind for females, but when it comes to men - Jonathan Rhys Meyers. Not a very well-known actor, but I wish I had his lips myself! :)
Excellent work with photoshop, too! I'm just starting to dabble with it and it doesn't always want to work with me, but photoshop seems to like you!
AZM
Oh right, Sly's nose! That's a good one. Meyers is in The Tudors right? I think I know him.
I started like that too. But you'll get the hang of it eventually. Trust me. Thanks for dropping by :D
Yep - The Tudors.
I'll keep working at it - thanks!
Well, you definitely have a keen eye for the ones with the magical flare. The Photos are stunning captions of each.. a few I did not readily recognize, yet can see why they made your list.
Your photshop image seemed a bit nostalgic for me. I could very easily see it as an add caption in a magazine like, Italian Vogue (the highest rated of the Vogues) or "W" magazine.
My fave modern time model was Linda Evangvilista, more so due to her versalitiy to stand strong in high fashion shoots and catwalks..like a cameleon.. Yet, can't say she had a particular trait that stands out. (Too bad, she blacklisted her career for 10 years, for demanding that it was not worth getting out of bed for less than $10,000) tsk.
A bit of gossip about Jack Nicholson. When he's at his Estate in France and needs a cabby, he raises a flag and the one that gets to him the quickest is the lucky winner..haha... only Jack!
fab, as per usual.. :)
@AMW - :D
@invictus
Wow thanks for the compliments - they would surely take you far with me! LOL
Linda was/is one of the supermodels, right? At least she knows her worth.
LOL I could imagine - yeah, only Jack :D
Thanks for dropping by :D
good stuff. I think an actor's ears may make it in there too someday
Haha. :D Well, Brenda, spurred up some nostolgic time for me lately, too. If you are interested in the "Industry" stuff let me know.. I've have a few connnections there and just haven't called cause right know it would be a teaser :)They are not in images per se, yet it is all connections..connecting!
Linda, was in the "Brat Pack" time of Super Models With Cindy Crawford and such, as she is too... oh, and the sh-evil "Naomi" LOL.
I googled Linda today and she is marked 'The Chameleon' one of a kind, that with being difficult to replace..As you know, modelling life is short, so her attitude kissed her career away of the beauty she could of had, and then not making a cent... What's that saying about cutting off your nose to spite your face? LOL
@bill
good point! haha yeah maybe :D
@invictus
Thanks for the heads up. And thanks too for that bit of trivia about Linda. :D
Chris, what a fun hub. Did you yourself do the eyes in those black and white photos? That was just great. Love the old celebrities thrown in and the idea of highlighting individual features was perfect. Except, I think Angelina's lips are cracked looking, like she's always chapped. Oh well, can't win them all.
And I had fun putting this together. Yes, I did edit most of the pictures and as for those in the "eyes" section, they were all originally in color which I transformed into a more dramatic black and white to make the eyes jump out of the pictures (but I do admit making the blues brighter).
Maybe Angelina's lips are overrated? Haha Thanks for dropping by :D
Always a great, impressive... aside from being amusing hub from one of the best hubbers I know! =)
But surely you didn't mean that?! But if you do, there's no taking it back - I might even put it on my profile page! Haha :D
I really like this blog page. But where is beautiful Penelope Cruz, you should have her under lips, eyes or perhaps even nose or neck. Nevertheless, I want to favorite this page.
I never noticed how beautiful Bette Davis eyes were. they are huge.
Oh Ms Cruz is in the very first image - I can'r pick one facial feature that stands out more than the rest :D

Cris: Entertaining hub! I am glad we don't have actresses with a mustache, that would be a hormonal issue, LOL. I like the touch you gave to the black and white photos by adding color to the eyes.
