Many of us likely hold a skewed perception of Hollywood and its stars. I’ll be the first to confess that I sometimes draw inspiration from these celebrities.
This isn’t particularly unusual; as humans, we often mimic one another in terms of fashion, interests, and looks.
Celebrities are frequently viewed as flawless icons, seemingly without any imperfections. They always appear stunning in films, whether on the red carpet, during photoshoots, or just out and about, exuding an air of perfection.
However, we occasionally catch glimpses of celebrities in their more natural state—without makeup, flattering lighting, or designer outfits. These moments remind us that, thankfully, they are just ordinary people and not superhuman beings.
Goldie Hawn, at 74, has long been one of my favorite actresses. Her radiant smile, delightful charm, and talent have won the hearts of millions over the years. Few can achieve this, but Goldie has successfully maintained her status as a movie star and her popularity for over thirty years.
Since her rise to fame, Goldie has been celebrated for her natural beauty and her stunning golden blonde hair. In April 2020, she graced the cover of People Magazine’s “Beautiful Issue,” which marked 30 years of celebrating beauty.
Today, this peace-loving blonde stands as a true example of inner beauty—Goldie embodies confidence and strength, aging gracefully.
Yet, it wasn’t always this way.
“When I was younger, I was flat-chested, my hormones were all over the place, and I felt awkward. Boys didn’t ask me out, and I doubted anyone would ever love me. It’s such a challenging time for a girl to feel good about herself, and often, those who do are the early bloomers,” she shared with Beauty Heaven.
As Goldie gained fame and landed larger roles in films, she swiftly embraced her true self. With numerous critics sharing their varied opinions about her, Goldie was compelled to discover her inner resilience.
Otherwise, people’s judgments could have overwhelmed her.

“Some individuals see you as beautiful, while others may view you as unattractive. They share their opinions freely, so it’s essential to build resilience against them. To do this, you must learn to understand who you are and how you truly feel about yourself. That’s where I discovered my inner beauty,” she shares.
A few years back, the award-winning actress stepped out in public without any makeup during the day. The photo sparked a lot of reactions, as Goldie appeared quite different from the glamorous actress we are used to seeing. Without makeup, she was nearly unrecognizable, yet the paparazzi still managed to snap her picture.
On the flip side, many people also admired her natural appearance, and I can only commend her for her relaxed approach. Just because Goldie opts for a more minimal makeup look doesn’t mean she neglects her skincare and overall appearance.
Sleep is one of the most crucial aspects of our well-being. Ensuring you get enough rest is vital, along with other practices like consuming healthy oils, exfoliating to keep your skin smooth, and applying sunscreen daily. Goldie emphasizes the importance of thoroughly massaging her creams into her skin.
In a conversation with Pop Sugar, Goldie shared that she takes two tablespoons of olive oil each night and enjoys massaging her face.
“Our skin is our largest organ, and it tends to become drier as we age,” she noted.
In the appearance-driven world of entertainment, Goldie frequently faces inquiries about her body, skin, femininity, and overall looks. Throughout the years, numerous celebrities have sought to address ageism in Hollywood using their influence.
Julia Roberts, Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Aniston, and Helen Mirren have all voiced their concerns about age discrimination in Hollywood, calling for change. However, Goldie Hawn has a different perspective on the issue and advocates for an alternative approach to instigating change.
“Do you really believe you can challenge the system? Do you think that once you turn 45, you can still prove to Hollywood that you’re a desirable and attractive person? No, that’s not how it works. There’s a certain truth to it. Does it frustrate me? Not at all. I’m not someone who gets angry or takes a militant stance. Anger doesn’t lead to progress; it’s counterproductive,” she shared with Harper’s Bazaar in 2017.
While Hollywood romances often fizzle out quickly, Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn have defied the odds, remaining deeply in love for nearly 40 years.
The couple appeared in several films together during the 1980s, including the romantic comedy Overboard, but they seldom share the screen these days.
Kurt continues to be a sought-after actor, featuring in movies such as Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and the Fast and the Furious series. Goldie has mostly stepped back from acting. Nevertheless, the pair came together again on screen, portraying Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus in The Christmas Chronicles. A sequel is currently in the works, and they are expected to return to their roles.
I truly adore Goldie! She’s an incredibly funny and delightful person, as well as a fantastic actress!
