There are thousands of beauties in the world, and the entertainment industry accounts for half of them.
There are countless beauties in the entertainment industry, whether they are cute, sexy, atmospheric or small, as long as you can think of them, there are basically them.
Although the times are advancing, the quality of beauties in the entertainment industry is not as good as before.
Compared with the same female stars in the circle today, the actresses in the 90s of the last century seem to be more diverse.
However, among the many beautiful actresses, there is also a lot of controversy about their appearance, some people think they are as beautiful as fairies, but some people think that they are clearly "crooked melons and cracked dates".
Wang Baochuan digging wild vegetables - Xuan Xuan
Although "Xue Pinggui and Wang Baochuan" is a TV series in 2012, it will become popular again in 2023.
The reason is very simple, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion was a beggar who cut off relations with her father and dug wild vegetables and waited for her husband for 18 years, which was regarded as affectionate.
But more than ten years after the broadcast, this behavior is regarded as a "love brain".
Wang Baochuan was also crowned with the title of "Love Brain Grandmother".
However, this TV series has become popular again, so that Wang Baochuan's actor Xuan Xuan has also regained the attention of mainland netizens.
As a celebrity of TVB, Xuan Xuan's acting skills are obvious to all, but in recent years, the public has been quite controversial about her appearance.
In fact, if Xuan Xuan didn't play the role of Wang Baochuan, her beauty might not be questioned, and she wouldn't have to be crowned with the title of "crooked melon and cracked date".
Wang Baochuan was a teenage girl when she first appeared in the play, dressed in pink clothes and with air bangs that showed her age.
But Xuan Xuan was already in her forties when she played this role, and it would definitely be a little abrupt for her to play tender.
Moreover, Wang Baochuan is portrayed as a peerless beauty in the play, and several excellent men in the play like her very much.
Even after Wang Baochuan became a beggar woman, Wei Bao still missed her, and there must be Wang Baochuan who was too beautiful.
If Xuan Xuan acts in this drama with the appearance of her youth, it will be no problem at all, after all, her appearance was still very online before.
But letting Xuan Xuan, who is in her forties, pretend to be tender, not only does not highlight her beauty, but makes people feel unsightly.
And at that time, Xuan Xuan's appearance was already going downhill, and the makeup was not suitable, so the audience formed an impression of Xuan Xuan as an "ugly girl".
But momentary appearance does not become a criterion for defining a person.
In the stereotype of the public, the profession of actors is all low-educated personnel, but Xuan Xuan is different.
She graduated from Imperial College London in the United Kingdom and is a veritable top student.
Although she is not from a professional class, Xuan Xuan's acting skills have never been questioned since she debuted at the age of 23.
Xuan Xuan's debut work "Chitose Lover" made her beauty and acting skills begin to enter the public eye, and then "No. 1 Imperial Court IV" allowed her to gain a firm foothold in the circle.
Xuan Xuan has played cool roles for many years since her debut, and it was not until she entered the mainland market that she played the much-criticized "love brain grandmother" Wang Baochuan.
This drama greatly reduced her image, and the image of a strong woman created many years ago disappeared in an instant.
Charmaine Sheh, Queen of Journalism
Although Charmaine Sheh is also a TVB actress, mainland audiences are no strangers to her.
Many people think that Charmaine Sheh should not be included in the ranks of "crooked melons and cracked dates", after all, she was a beauty pageant champion.
Indeed, just looking at Charmaine Sheh's face, although it is not a peerless beauty, it should definitely not be said to be ugly.
In fact, Charmaine Sheh is called "crooked melon and cracked date", not because she is not beautiful enough, but because she did not choose the right role.
"Heaven and Dragon Slayer" has been filmed several times, and Zhou Zhiruo, as one of the heroines, has attracted much attention every time she casts.
So far, the most popular casting of Zhou Zhiruo should be Zhou Haimei and Gao Yuanyuan.
These two are recognized as big beauties in the circle, and they play Zhou Zhiruo, and the audience naturally has no objections.
In fact, Charmaine Sheh also played Zhou Zhiruo.
Although Charmaine Sheh was born in a beauty pageant, she is still a little short of a big beauty.
Therefore, when it was rumored that Charmaine Sheh played Zhou Zhiruo, the public naturally felt that her appearance did not match the role.
Although Charmaine Sheh's appearance in the play is quite beautiful, it is still slightly inferior to Zhou Haimei's version.
And Li Zi, who plays Zhao Min in the play, is a veritable beauty.
There is harm in comparison, and compared with her predecessors and colleagues, Charmaine Sheh's beauty is naturally not worth mentioning.
Later, the broadcast of "Golden Branches" let the public see how powerful Charmaine Sheh's acting skills are, and her beauty was slowly ignored in comparison.
In 2023, Charmaine Sheh's "News Queen" will once again shock the Hong Kong entertainment industry and domestic entertainment.
Charmaine Sheh used her superb acting skills to let the public see what a real heroine and a strong woman are.
This TV series also allowed Charmaine Sheh to win three Best Actress awards in one fell swoop, becoming a well-deserved Grand Slam Queen.
may not be the highest in Charmaine Sheh's appearance, but in terms of acting skills, she must be a well-deserved NO.1.
Mu Nianci - Guan Baohui
Almost every one of Jin Yong's novels has been remade many times, and the classic roles in them have been performed many times by different actors.
For example, Mu Nianci, as Yang Guo's mother, she does not have too many roles in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", but she has a decisive weight in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
Guan Baohui once played Mu Nianci.
When she was young, Guan Baohui's appearance was quite good, but for some reason her flowering period was exceptionally short.
In just a few years, her appearance fell off a cliff.
The skin is saggy, collagen is lost, and the facial muscles are extremely unnatural.
You must know that Guan Baohui also had the name of "Little Gong Li".
Of course, she can have this name not because her achievements are comparable to Gong Li, but because some photos are somewhat similar to Gong Li.
But if you really want to compare her beauty with Gong Li, Guan Baohui is probably not qualified.
Guan Baohui's facial features and facial contours are really not exquisite, she belongs to the type that is stunning at first glance but not attractive.
In addition, the aging speed is too fast, and the name of the big beauty is put together, and the audience will inevitably feel that this is a "crooked melon and cracked date".
But fortunately, Guan Baohui doesn't just rely on acting to eat, she also worked as a host.
It's just that there is an unknown bitterness behind any glamorous profession, and Guan Baohui's life as a host is not as good as imagined.
In fact, Guan Baohui's decline in appearance has a lot to do with her experience, if her life can be smoother, maybe the peak of her appearance can be maintained for a few more years.
It is said that she suffered from bipolar disorder many years ago, and it is common for her to be in a bad mood, and her career is not going well, so her state will inevitably deteriorate.
Xiao Xiao—Shao Meiqin
Compared with the above three, some netizens may feel that Shao Meiqi is too wronged here, after all, Xiao Zhao, who she played in "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", is Bai Yueguang in the hearts of many people.
But no one can stay young forever, and as the years pass, it is normal for the appearance to fall.
When Shao Meiqi played Xiao Zhao, it was the peak of her appearance, and the air bangs with the eccentric expression were rare for the audience to watch.
So much so that when the new version of Xiao Zhao appeared, the public complained that the casting was too poor, less than one-tenth of Xiao Zhao played by Shao Meiqi.
It is said that the age of thirty is a hurdle for women, because since then, the skin condition and appearance have been declining.
This statement is vividly reflected in Shao Meiqi.
Since the age of 30, Shao Meiqi's skin has gradually begun to sag, and wrinkles are slowly revealed.
Compared with actresses of the same age, she has obviously become a "crooked melon and cracked date".
As she gets older, Shao Meiqi's appearance is almost falling off a cliff, and with improper dental maintenance, she can't see the slightest shadow of beauty.
In 2011, the time-traveling drama "Palace Lock Heart Jade" starring Yang Mi and Feng Shaofeng became popular in most of China as soon as it was broadcast.
Shao Meiqi plays the role of the eighth elder brother's mother Concubine Liang in it.
When watching the drama, many people didn't recognize that this was Xiao Zhao in "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", because he didn't look like a person at all.
Compared with domestic entertainment, TVB's actresses seem to be more able to play the role of the big heroine, especially these actresses who have been labeled as "crooked melons and cracked dates".
Hong Kong dramas will not deliberately dress up female characters as white and thin wives, and the makeup is all in the style of strong women.
Of course, the acting skills of the actresses are also an important reason.
In addition, most of TVB's actresses are highly educated, not vases with empty heads, and they naturally have a more thorough understanding of the role.
Each flower into their own eyes, some people like gentle, some like unrestrained, no one is better than whom, just see if you like it.
