‘Kate Looks So Strange’: Users Stunned after Seeing ‘Unrecognizable’ Kate Beckinsale on the Red Carpet – Photos & Video

The 51-year-old “Underworld” actress stepped out in a daring mini dress, complete with a laced corset and a dramatic puff-ball skirt.

She paired the look with her signature towering platform heels, all in matching pink.

Beckinsale completed the ensemble with a black bow in her hair and statement earrings, balancing classic elegance with a bold edge.

Despite the star’s striking appearance, her look sparked a wave of reactions online. Social media lit up with comments, as many users expressed surprise at her unexpected style.

“Never thought she’d go this route; she looks so robot-like,” one person wrote, while another remarked, “She looks in pain!” The critiques continued, with some fans calling her “unrecognizable,” and others suggesting she looked “like a mannequin.”

Another viewer even confessed, “Kate looks so strange I almost didn’t recognize her 😧.” Someone else noted, “She does not look like Kate Beckinsale!” The actress’s bold choice left many curious, with one user asking, “What’s wrong, Beckinsale? She looks weird,” and another voicing concern, “What happened to Kate? 😨”

Some fans couldn’t help but see a nostalgic twist in Beckinsale’s look. One person stated, “She looks like that tiny ballerina that spun when you opened your childhood jewelry box.”

Others weren’t as sentimental, calling her appearance “fake and plastic.” A few viewers even did a double-take, mistaking her for other celebrities. “First I thought it was Fergie, then Meredith Grey, but I never even thought this could be Kate. She looks so different,” one user commented.

Amid the criticism, Beckinsale’s fans rallied in her defense, with many applauding her daring look. “She looks AMAZING! Why are people so jealous?” one user wrote. Another fan gushed, “Wait, this is ICONICCCC[SIC].” A different admirer added, “Don’t know why everyone’s hating… I would kill to look like this at 50.”

The Variety Power of Women 2024 event took place on October 24 at Mother Wolf in Los Angeles. The event honors influential women in entertainment and their philanthropic endeavors. Among the distinguished honorees were Amy Adams, Carol Burnett, Zoe Saldaña, and Sarah Hyland.

While some netizens reacted critically to Beckinsale’s appearance, suggesting she looked different, the actress has her own perspective on aging. In a 2021 interview, Beckinsale expressed that aging means little to her. She attributed this partly to her family’s youthful appearances, saying, “Even my dog is nine and looks like a puppy.”

Her awareness of mortality also shapes her view. She reflected on her father’s early passing and noted that she has always been conscious of how quickly life can change. “I’ve been so aware of the possibility people can drop dead at any time,” the actress explained.

Beckinsale recalled how people began to worry her about turning 40 when she was just 33, stating that if one fixates on such concerns, it can lead to indifference.

Despite her relaxed attitude toward aging, Beckinsale adheres to a strict fitness regimen, working out five or six days a week. She mentioned how remarkable it is, considering she was hardly active as a child and didn’t want to stand up at all.

When discussing cosmetic procedures, Beckinsale firmly stated that she hasn’t had any, though she doesn’t oppose them for others. However, she expressed frustration over the assumption that she has undergone such treatments, insisting that she hasn’t.

The English actress also revealed her fear of the potential side effects associated with these procedures. She recalled that her mother was always wary of such things, refusing even facials and maintaining her radiant appearance.

While Kate Beckinsale is cautious about Botox, she does appreciate PRP treatments. This procedure involves reinjecting her blood plasma into her skin. She emphasized that it is a natural process from her own body, unlike “scary poisonous things.”
