Celebs Tell Us What Beauty Means to Them Now — and What They Hope It Means in the Future

A-listers explain their current lens for beauty, and their hopes for the next generation

A-listers including Zendaya, Camila Mendes and Olivia Munn explain their current lens for beauty, and their hopes for the next generation.

Zendaya, 27

Beauty Now: “Oh man, I don’t think it really can be defined. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, so really it’s up to you to define what beauty is.”

For the Next Generation: “Just true joy and love inside, whatever that looks like for you.”

Jenna Dewan, 43

Beauty Now: “True beauty comes from within. Your inner sparkle and joy for life are what really make you shine. And great makeup is always welcome!”

For the Next Generation: “Embody the inner beauty of grace and wisdom that will inevitably come, and have fun and experiment with being creative in who [you] naturally are.”

Camila Mendes, 29

Beauty Now: “Beauty comes down to confidence. It should be more about accentuating the things that you have instead of trying to hide the things you think you don’t have.”

For the Next Generation: “When you’re younger, you try to look and be like everyone else. Individuality is the most beautiful thing.”

Olivia Munn, 43

Beauty Now: “Beauty starts in your head, not in your appearance. It starts with accepting and loving yourself fully in every form, even in those messy and chaotic moments.”

For the Next Generation: “Finding beauty in the uniqueness of people, because it’s so much more interesting than any societal norm.”

Tiffany Haddish, 44

Beauty Now: “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and I think beauty is something that makes you feel good when you look at it.”

For the Next Generation: “I hope being who you are naturally born to be will be the definition of beauty."

Riley Keough, 34

Beauty Now: “There’s so many types of beauty. I find the beauty in the heartache and in the broken bits and the sadness. Nobody’s perfect.”

For the Next Generation: “Find beauty in human beings trying to wake up and go to work and survive their life every day.”

Rumer Willis, 35

Beauty Now: “I define it so much more through my strength and the love that I was holding for myself for giving birth at home [to daughter Louetta in April 2023].”

For the Next Generation: “To be able to always trust and know on a deep level the value of who she is, so she never feels like she has to compromise herself.”
