Then & Now: Lauren Conrad

When you’ve been spotting celebrities as long as I have, you notice the little things . . . like the way Lauren Conrad has mastered using makeup. Back in 2007, she could have gotten lost in a crowd looking pretty in pearls. Three short years later, LC is glowing like a true It Girl. The harsh lighting in the first pic doesn’t help—but neither picture has been Photoshopped. Isn’t it remarkable what a little press powder can do?

Then & Now: Lady Gaga

Back when Lady Gaga was simply Stefani Germanotta, a pint-size brunette with powerful pipes, she turned to sparkles (and a bare torso!) to get noticed. Then a name change and a dramatic style transformation brought out the Gaga within—and the pop music scene will never be the same. She may cover up a bit more now, but the lady will always stand out in a crowd.

Heidi Montag: Then & Now

Once upon a time, there was a starry-eyed girl named Heidi Montag with big dreams—and really well-connected friends. Three years, ten or so plastic surgeries, and one crazy ex-husband later, you get . . . This. Perhaps they should post Heidi’s before and after pics as a warning to new arrivals at LAX. But what would the caption say? “Caution: too much exposure to Hollywood can lead to dangerous lapses in judgment and plasticity!”

Then & Now: Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift may alternate between straight, sleek hair and romantic ringlets, but her signature style of ladylike dresses and soft makeup stays intact. If you love your look, why mess with it? In a land of plastic surgery and major makeovers, do you find Taylor’s resistance to change refreshing or boring?

Then & Now: Ed Westwick

The devil’s in the details . . . or is it just in Ed Westwick‘s eyes? Ed’s playful pouts are his trademark, but over the years he’s gotten ever more dapper, sporting perfectly tailored suits, sharp shirts, and skinny ties. And most importantly: he’s learned that chest hair is not an accessory.
