Then and Now

I was planning to post about some of the music I’ve been listening to recently but found that I haven’t done enough research. So I figured I’d post something simpler… however I still ended up spending quite a lot of time on this post…so maybe I should have just stuck with my music post…. ^^ But it was really interesting though.

Some weeks ago, a friend sent me an email with the then-and-now photos of some male artistes. I’ve also seen photos of similar articles for female artistes. They really do look different. Of course, there are lots debate as to whether these artistes did go for cosmetic surgery. If you do a search on the internet, there is no lack of discussion on this topic. Except for a few who did admit to making some ‘enhancements’, most deny that any surgery has been done. Now, I don’t know if the following did or not. It is also none of my business. As an artiste, what matters at the end of the day is that they perform well as an artiste.

But people do change as they grow up. And with age, experience, confidence and the financial means for better clothes, better stylist and hair stylist, it is not surprising that they can look vastly different. I mean, I look absolutely awful when I was in my teens…with my thick glasses and terrible permed hair.




So seeing as the weekend is coming up…let’s play a little game. hehe! Do you know who the following artistes are? The answers are at the bottom of the post, with their ‘now’ photos. No peeping!
