The Game of Thrones actress, 36, looked positively radiant as she posted a fresh-faced snap on her Instagram, yet some people online criticized her for her aging face. Luckily, Emilia’s fans jumped into action to defend the stunning beauty, and they were quick to celebrate her all-natural look.
The actress shared an adorable selfie where she has minimal makeup on. The pic showed her grinning as she proudly held a mug her mom gifted her. But Emilia’s wholesome post soon gathered a number of negative comments.
One person wrote, “What’s happening with those hairs, they’re worse than mine right now.” While another added, “Big forehead and looks 50 years old now.” A third person continued to criticize Clarke for her all-natural features, and commented that she “hit a wall.”
In response, the actress’s fans rushed to shower her with compliments and defended her by saying, “It’s not cool to put someone down for aging!”
One fan wrote, “Thank you for laughing so much Emilia, you make the world brighter” and another commented, “This is by far the most beautiful woman in Hollywood.” Someone also gushed about Clarke’s stunning, all-natural features saying “Beautiful — actual smile lines in an IG pic.”
This is not the first time that the actress, who rose to fame at just 23 thanks to Game of Thrones, has received comments about her looks. In 2021, she recalled that, at only 28 years old, she was told by a facialist to get fillers.
Emilia then opened up about the dilemma we have to face as we grow older, saying, ’’You’ve got this idea of aging, and then you’ve got the idea of what aging makes you look like.’’
However, Clarke herself believes that those aging signs should be embraced and celebrated. She said, “At 34, I am wiser, more intelligent, I’ve had more experiences, I’ve done all this stuff, and I’m proud of that.” She then noted that, ’’You can only do that because you are the age you are.’’
The star went on explaining that looking older doesn’t bother her at all, saying, “If my face is gonna reflect the time that I’ve spent on this earth, I’m down for that.”
And just like Emilia, many famous women are refusing to have work done and are looking fabulous as they embrace their wrinkles and gray hair. Having said that, other celebrities have admitted to having had plastic surgery, and they have zero regrets about their decision.
And we celebrate all these women equally. After all, we should all do what brings us comfort and happiness because feeling good in our own skin is what matters most.

Joey from ‘Friends’ Resurfaces at 57 – His New Look Has Everyone Talking
Matt LeBlanc, famous for playing Joey on “Friends,” recently appeared in public again at 57, showing a big change in his look. After staying out of Hollywood for years, his new appearance surprised fans, leading to mixed reactions online.
LeBlanc became very popular for his role as Joey Tribbiani on “Friends,” where people loved him for his humor, good looks, and memorable lines. But after the show ended, LeBlanc started to step away from the spotlight.
Let’s look at Matt LeBlanc’s journey and changes over the years — from playing the lovable Joey Tribbiani on “Friends,” going through what he described as the hardest time of his life, to his recent public appearance that left some social media users concerned about him.
1994 – 2000
Matt LeBlanc became a major star in the mid-90s thanks to his role as Joey Tribbiani on the hit sitcom “Friends.” The show, which first aired in 1994, quickly became a global sensation, winning over millions of fans and making LeBlanc a household name.
LeBlanc’s character, Joey, was a struggling actor with a big heart, known for his great sense of humor, his simple yet lovable personality, and his iconic catchphrase, “How you doin’?” Joey was the ladies’ man of the group, combining his good looks with a childlike charm that instantly made him a fan favorite.
With his sharp jawline, thick dark hair, and a smile that could brighten any room, LeBlanc’s good looks played a big role in his character’s appeal. Fans were captivated by his natural charm and the boyish innocence that made Joey both relatable and impossible to resist.
2004 – 2006
After “Friends” ended in 2004, LeBlanc tried to keep Joey Tribbiani’s story going with the spin-off show, “Joey.” While the series aimed to recreate the success of “Friends,” it struggled to connect with audiences.
Running from 2004 to 2006, “Joey” only lasted for two seasons before it was canceled due to low ratings and poor reviews.
During these years, LeBlanc went through personal struggles that made this time even harder. He was dealing with a painful divorce, and the pressure of trying to save the show added to his stress.
“My marriage was maybe doomed anyway, I don’t know,” LeBlanc admitted. On top of this, his young daughter was diagnosed with a health issue, adding to the emotional weight he was carrying.
Sadly, the challenges continued. LeBlanc also faced betrayal when a nanny sold a story about his daughter’s health to the media.
He described this time as one of the darkest periods of his life, feeling torn between his responsibilities as a father and his efforts to make “Joey” a success.
LeBlanc often struggled to be funny on set, with his mind constantly distracted by worries about his daughter’s health and the turmoil in his personal life.
Despite these challenges, he pushed through, later reflecting on how these tough times helped him grow. “But I got through it. Don’t they say, ‘What doesn’t kill us, only makes us stronger?’” he shared.
2007-2011
After “Joey” was canceled in 2006, LeBlanc made the surprising choice to leave the entertainment industry. For five years, he stayed out of the spotlight, taking a break to focus on his personal life.
Looking back on this time, LeBlanc said, “For years and years, I barely left the house. I was burnt out. I wanted to not have a schedule, not be somewhere. I was in a position to do that.”
LeBlanc described this period as a dark chapter in his life, where he nearly faced a nervous breakdown. “My agent was bummed. Most actors call their agents and say, ‘What’s going on?’ I’d call mine and say, ‘Please lose my number for a few years,’” the actor revealed.
In 2011, LeBlanc made a surprising return to television, playing a fictionalized version of himself in the series “Episodes.” “None of it’s me. Even the parts that are me, are not me,” LeBlanc explained cryptically.
LeBlanc’s comeback in “Episodes” highlighted his natural comedic talent, a key part of his personality. “I like to laugh. I’ve been like this my whole life. I have funny bones. If there’s ever any kind of tension, I’ll always be the one to try and be funny to loosen things up,” he shared.
2017
After eight years of playing his unique character, LeBlanc bid farewell to “Episodes” in 2017. Looking back, he expressed his gratitude, saying, “I’ve just been so, so lucky to be a part of it.”
During this period, LeBlanc’s appearance had notably changed. He had a fuller figure and a more rugged look compared to his earlier days as Joey, with his hair now turned a distinguished silver.
In 2022, LeBlanc made one of his final public appearances before stepping back from the spotlight once more. He showcased a distinguished look, blending his signature casual charm with a touch of mature elegance.
