I look at Kaia, a lovely young woman, and feel ….. nothing .
Id rather the thunder that her mother created in the beauty and fashion industry w that unique mole, her amazing presence and the fact that she was studying engineering. Cindy was a star, Kaia was only born. I feel nothing for Kaia, but she is a lovely young lady…there is just no there, there.
I was just coming to comment that she’s really starting to look like her mom but who even knows if that’s natural or doctor enhanced.
But let’s face it the only way Cindy Crawford’d daughter could be truly unique is to pick an entirely different career.
She definitely did something to her face. Her cheekbones weren’t quite so “sculpted” when she was young.
She’s enhanced her cheekbones, got the same super deep tan , but also it’s her HAIR. Her hair is straight out of the 90s, I’d say 80s but its not that bad. The style, volume and colour is all Cindy. No young person these days wants to look like an extra on the golden girls. Her intention is to look like her mother.
And Cindy told the heroin chic trend to go eff itself. IMO, in her modeling hey day, she looked strong and healthy and so beautiful.
Buccal fat removal?
I think it’s the anorexia level of weight that is making her face look thin and old for her years.
It certainly looks like it. very pronounced.
Ya, I feel the same but also really feel for her. As beautiful as her mother is, this girl needs her own style and be sure to be valued not only for being her mothers clone. I had hoped that her mother was smart enough to do not let her fall into this trap, but seeing this picture really makes me wonder.
I was thinking the exact thing. She truly is a nepo baby. The side eye from Homer Gere is epic.
Cindy was married to Richard Gere and now her daughter is co-staring with his son. That’s some amazing nepo stunt casting there.
OMG I totally forgot that they were married! That seems so random now, lol. Unrelated: I’ve been watching him in The Agency and he’s SO good
Kaia’s acting is even worse than her mom’s but Cindy has some self-awareness to know she wasn’t good at acting.
To be fair, people are willing to give her roles. In her position, it’s not likely anyone would want to turn those opportunities down.
She does looks so much more like Cindy. That’s totally deliberate, imo, bc she originally looked like her dad and her brother looked like his mom(even with the mole, I think). I’m pretty sure Kaia had buccal fat removal too. It’s also like she is re-creating her mother’s “brand” bc Cindy was an O.G. model back in the day. People still remember Cindy and now all those feelings for Cindy can be transferred to her daughter for greater success. Weirdly, Kaia is now the “new Cindy.” Like Cindy was cloned.
Definitely buccal fat removal or something to enhance the cheekbones
Agreed! Made almost the same comment before I saw yours.
Buccal fat removal, change of hair, and lips i think? Bad move, kaia.
She has thinned her eyebrows – I think this makes her look more like her Mom.
Kaia literally looks 40 years old.
She 100 percent looks old enough to be all those kids mom in the top photo. I thought the it was mislabeled. I’m so perplexed. Is it the work she’s had done??
She looks so pretty but yes, why does she look so old???
It’s the buccal fat removal. What these kids don’t realize is that people’s faces get “gaunt” like that as you get older. Having a full face makes you look more youthful.
Oh dear I think you’re right. Buccal fat removal is the worst trend. They’re gonna want that back someday
I’m at a point though where I can’t tell if it’s buccal fat removal or just extreme thinness. Some of the buccal fat allegations…I’m like no they’re just very very thin. So I can’t always tell.
Came here to say that! Took one look at that picture and needed to go check her age. She’s only 24 but looks more than a decade older
She’s also styled here like a Charlie’s Angel.
I think Kaia looks like the plastic Barbie version of her mom. Lifeless.
Yeah, Cindy was never dead-eyed.
Apropos of nothing here, is As Ever bringing out a new jam?
I got that email too. Made from a late summer fruit. Fig, maybe?
I love fig jam!
I am hoping it is blackberry.
the most important topic of the day
It’s for sure not apricot. I emailed them about it last month and was told they have no plans to restock it, which seems strange since it sold out twice.
I feel ya, apricot is my favorite too!
They/their producer may have difficulty obtaining sufficient fruit, or sufficient fruit for what they anticipate the current demand would be, what they estimate they’d need to make it a permanent part of their rotation. The amount of apricots harvested in the US (mostly in CA) is trivial compared with other parts of the world. Maybe As ever will offer it one of these days the way they’ve done the chocolate bars, in a limited edition…
Bring back Apricot!
There was a vid? I think there were blackberries in her hand! Y’all that’s been my number one request, a blackberry jam. I’d love a fig too. Okay I’m ready.
Kaia’s hairdo like that is aging I think also the dark tan
Yes, I agree – the hairstyle and the too dark tan. Also the dress. The dress is too old for her.
Next she’ll suddenly and naturally get a mole in the same exact spot as her mother’s.
😹
Hadn’t heard of this Shards series and had to look it up. Ryan Murphy show and the review embargo lifts at the same day/time it releases on streaming…..oh….so it’s not just bad it’s AWFUL. Got it, thanks for letting me know, moving on. 🤣
Strange that she looks a lot like Cindy, but doesn’t inspire the same reaction.
Her eyes are really dull and lifeless.
It’s like what they said in the 20s with “SA.” Most nepo babies just don’t.
I think Kaia looks very polished. Her posture promotes her assets well and she always finds the camera.
Kaia and zoe kravitz are basically frauds at this point. They are trying every truck to make us confuse them with their moms. I must write that they have finally won. A few months ago i saw a picture of zoe and totally thought she was her mom. Kaia is like 80% there.
I love bret easton ellis. Yes, the casting looks suspicious but i went for it. Just watched the trailer. It looks wonderful and beautiful but the acting. I m shaking my head. I can feel myself being disappointed but it looks so good. I have to watch at least the first episode. Although i found “the beauty” tv show prejudiced.
In Kaia’s face I see Miley Cyrus. Just in the face. She looks hollow. Lifeless.
I wonder how much Cindy Crawford influences Kaia’s transformation. Who is giving her the advice to look exactly like her mom? It’s unfair and unhealthy. She’s young. Sad that she can’t be herself and must copy her own mom, an icon of another era. I’d think that would undermine Kaia’s confidence–that she can’t be successful unless she is a re-creation of her mom. How young did she start modeling? She really should have chosen another profession, to get out of the shadow (and exact image) of her mother.
It it quite disturbing – what is family dynamic like, when a daughter wants to be exactly like her mother? At 24, she should have at least a vague idea of who she is, and that is very rarely “my mom’s doppelgänger”. Even if superficially it’s understandable because this look sells, and it is already proven, living your life as someone’s copy is not healthy.
Everyone needs to drop everything and look at J-Lo sightseeing in Rome with her kids. Whoever is styling J Lo has it utterly nailed. The adorable minidress, the scarf, the shades (pretty sure those flipflops were agony after a bit): so Jackie O 1970s. Stunning.
That’s how I look in my mind’s eye when I dream of revisiting Rome.
When I watched her in Palm Royale I thought her scarily thin.
Also thought she was a pretty bad actress in that. Haven’t seen her in anything else to compare.
AnnaG, Exactly.
