10 Celebrities That Are Proud of Their Uncommon Physical Traits
Self-esteem is something important that many people have a hard time taking care of. All bodies are different, and we may often have features that do not fit the current “beauty standards” set by society. But that should not prevent anyone from feeling good about their physique. Even celebrities have features that many consider “different,” but that has not stopped them from feeling comfortable in front of cameras and thousands of fans.
1. Keira Knightley

The British actress is not a fan of the perfect Hollywood smile and deliberately refuses to wear braces. Her imperfect teeth have not been an obstacle in her career. Keira continues to receive leading roles in top films and is a frequent protagonist in fashion photo shoots.
She generally promotes body positivity and asks photographers not to retouch her pics. This applies to her face and body. “You’re either too thin, or you’re too fat, or you’re too tall, or you’re too short. Every bit of you can be weird… it’s just kind of ridiculous,” she said.
2. Kate Moss

The supermodel considers herself to be bow-legged. She has got rid of almost all her mini skirts and skirts that aren’t long enough to cover her legs so as not to highlight this feature. And when she does wear short skirts, she crosses her legs.

3. Paris Hilton

The heiress of a millionaire fortune has more than once entered the ranking of the most attractive celebrities, even though she has a fairly uncommon trait: a drooping eyelid. Over the years, she has learned to hide it behind a seductive look and well-applied makeup. In addition, the famous blonde wears size 7.5 shoes, which she considers her main flaw.

Kate Hudson has never been embarrassed about her ears. Her short pixie haircut, which the actress once sported, is a case in point. Nowadays, she has let her hair grow out and likes to wear it in straight hairstyles and high buns.
5. Kylie Jenner

She is certainly not against plastic surgeries, but even so, she has never tried to get rid of a visible scar on her leg. When she was 5 years old, she and her sister were playing hide and seek. Kylie climbed on a high fence and fell on a metal stake, which left that scar. She’s not embarrassed about it; she proudly wears open-toed outfits and miniskirts. This is her way of practicing body acceptance and self-esteem.
6. Selena Gomez
The singer also shared a photo on her Instagram showing a large scar on her inner thigh. “When I had my kidney transplant, I remember I had a hard time showing my scar. I didn’t want it to show in photos and wore things that hid it. Today I feel more confident than ever and proud to have gone through that challenge,” Selena wrote in the post.
7. Catherine Zeta-Jones

The actress has a small scar on her neck that is very difficult to see. As a child, the star fell ill and underwent a tracheotomy. A tube was inserted through a hole in her throat so she could breathe. Since then, she has had a slight mark on her neck.
8. Karolína Kurková

The Czech model was a Victoria’s Secret angel and became an ambassador for all kinds of lingerie and swimwear brands. All that, even though the blonde doesn’t have a belly button like we are used to seeing. She just has a slit in her belly. Most likely, the model had an umbilical hernia in her childhood and had it surgically removed.

The photo of her pregnancy that the model shared on Instagram clearly demonstrates she has no belly button.
9. Jennifer Garner

The actress has her pinky toes in a completely different position than usual: the right pinky is on top of the ring toe, and the left one points sideways. This is most likely congenital. The toes have that position and do not change even when the celebrity wears open shoes.

The French model’s successful career has proven that you don’t have to be perfect to achieve worldwide fame. Her less-than-perfect teeth have become her signature detail. “I don’t like the idea of changing just for the industry. Little imperfections like my teeth make a model stand out. Perfection is boring,” she said, sporting her imperfect front teeth.
11. Ashton Kutcher
Kutcher himself showed his right foot so that people could see that his second and third toes are attached. He did so during a live show in 2005. He is not ashamed of this and considers it his “only natural defect.”
Bonus: Jessica Simpson is not ashamed of her leg hair.
