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.

Willow Smith: Success Built on My Own Terms, Not My Parents’ Fame
Willow Smith, a gifted 23-year-old singer and actress, wishes to make it clear that her parents, Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, aren’t the only people who have contributed to her career. Willow has continuously worked to forge her own route in the entertainment industry and establish her identity as an independent artist, even though she was raised in the spotlight.
Early Starts and Musical Adventure
Willow’s Hollywood career kicked off early; at the age of seven, she starred in her father’s critically praised film, I Am Legend. She gained popularity in the music industry at the age of ten because to her hit song Whip My Hair. Willow, though, has always made an effort to set herself apart from her parents’ celebrity and go on her own artistic path.
Throughout her career, Willow has put out five studio albums. This weekend, she will debut Empathogen, her much awaited sixth album. She discussed her experiences in the music industry in a recent interview with Allure magazine, saying that the idea that her parents are the only reasons for her fame has inspired her to put in even more effort.
Rejecting the Label of “Nepo Baby”
Despite what some may think, Willow is adamant that she does not match the image of a “nepo baby,” or someone who succeeds only because of their connections. She has put a lot of effort into showcasing her skills and abilities. Willow said, “I don’t have to prove anything to anyone anymore,” with assurance. She is aware that despite her parents’ notoriety, her uniqueness and spirit will always come through.
Accepting Black Relationships and Identity
Willow also talked candidly about the difficulties she faces as a Black woman in the US. Regardless of her notoriety, she stressed that being Black is an integral part of who she is. Willow uses her rich complexion, which she is proud of, to connect with people. “I love being Black,” she declared. And as everyone is aware, while that’s a place of connection, it doesn’t release you from accountability.
The Self-Reliant Smith Brothers
Apart from Willow, the other Smith siblings have made the decision to forge their own careers outside of their well-known parents. Jaden Smith, her older brother, made his feature film debut with their father in the movie The Pursuit of Happyness, and he too became successful at an early age. Since then, he’s started his own clothing line and had a prosperous career as a rapper.
Willow and Jaden have demonstrated that they are more than just famous people’s kids. They have accepted their uniqueness, made their own places for growth, and pushed boundaries in their own industries. Willow’s story demonstrates the ability to succeed in the face of criticism by having resilience and self-belief.
