HOLLYWOOD’S MOST ATTRACTIVE FAMILIES
Keeping up with the Joneses has a whole new meaning when the Joneses pose together on the cover of Vogue. Is there any way mere mortals can compete with the sheer beauty of the Beckhams? Would we even be able to subsist on a diet of bee pollen and hours-long workout routines? Let’s face it: there’s pretty and then there’s Hollywood pretty.
Hollywood beauty knows no bounds, and when gorgeous people fall in love at A-list events (or even on the set of their blockbuster hits), they tend to eventually have gorgeous offspring. These offspring are somehow blessed enough to skip through the awkward phases of puberty (braces be darned) and end up walking runways at the same age we awkwardly tried to cover our acne with ill-matching concealer.
No matter how you put it, these families are the most attractive in Tinsel Town — from the Hadids to the Smiths. Let us bow down at their Louboutin-clad toes.
The Kardashian-Jenners

The Kardashians are basically the royal family of Hollywood — or in the very least, the E! network. Their look launched an army of Instagram models and a cottage industry of fast-fashion, designer rip-offs (here’s looking at you Fashion Nova). Kim even once x-rayed her famed behind to let the world know, once and for all, that it’s not an implant.
Ever since the family burst into the spotlight after Kim’s video leak, the girls have been making millions from their good looks and business savvy. Kim doesn’t just spark modern fashion trends, which are sometimes ripped off before she even wears her outfit outdoors. She’s Kanye West’s muse. West told The Hollywood Reporter the reality star was the “Marie Antoinette of our time.” But she’s not the only one of the sacred five sisters to inspire with her beauty. Kendall Jenner was named the highest paid model of 2018 by Forbes; Kylie Jenner built a $1 billion beauty empire from her famously plumped-up lips; and Khloe Kardashian snagged the reality series Revenge Body after an incredible weight loss transformation.
Their coveted looks also have some serious selling power. Collectively, Khloe, Kourtney, and Kim command $1 million to lock down sponsored Instagram posts, according to US Weekly. Meanwhile, CNBC reports that a single post from Kylie alone costs $1 million, making her the highest paid celebrity influencer on all of Instagram.
The Hadids

For the Hadids, beauty runs in the bloodline. The ladies are bona-fide supermodels, starting with Real Housewives star Yolanda Hadid, who came to New York City from Holland with just $55 to pursue a career in modeling, according to Money. The star, who was discovered by Eileen Ford, then spent the better part of the ’80s and ’90s traveling the world perfecting her craft for high-profile clients like Vogue and Grazia.
If you don’t recognize Yolanda for her modeling, you probably recognize her as mom to her uber-famous model children, Gigi, Bella and Anwar Hadid. Once the trio turned 18 they were allowed to jump into the fashion industry. Both Gigi and Bella graced Forbes’ 2017 list of highest-paid models in the world. Bella even went as far as to bleach her eyebrows for Prada.
Regardless of Gigi’s epic modeling credits, the true testament to the star’s good looks is the Taylor Swift stamp of approval. To officially join her girl squad, you’ve basically got be a wildly talented musician or so gorgeous it hurts (and we haven’t really heard much about Gigi’s musical prowess).
The Beckhams

The Beckhams basically hit the genetic lottery, not that they needed anymore cash. The family reportedly has more money than the Queen (and therefore should probably also own all the unmarked, wild swans in the UK, but that’s a debate for another time). When it comes down to it, there’s a reason Victoria got the role of Posh rather than Ginger, but keeping up appearances isn’t easy. It requires a strict workout regimen and more than a few spoonfuls of bee pollen (because “we can’t have wrinkles,” she told Vogue). If there was ever a reason to save the bees from extinction, it might just be Posh’s face.
The fashion designer, whose brand was worth an estimated $133 million in November 2017, also has gorgeous offspring. That’s apparently just what happens when a Spice Girl shacks up with a footballer-turned-underwear model (Elle even called David Beckham the “underwear model of the century”). According to Vanity Fair, Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz and Harper were all “developing their personal brands” (yes, even a kindergartner can have a “personal brand” if their parents are famous enough). Harper could reportedly run in heels by the time she turned five, and Romeo made his modeling debut with Burberry at the ripe age of 10.
The Rosses

Diana Ross didn’t just pass her beauty (and stunning jawline) onto her five children — she passed on her talent. 44 years after her mom won a Golden Globe, Black-ish actress Tracee Ellis Ross took home the award for best actress in a comedy or musical for her role on the ABC series. Diana’s equally as handsome son (and husband to Ashlee Simpson) also inherited some massive skills. Evan has credits in The Hunger Games and 90210 and graced the Billboard charts with his wife in 2018.
Despite the family’s obvious talents, there’s one definitive trait Diana passed down to her offspring: looking totally glam under pressure. Tracee told the New York Times, “My mom had beautiful clothes; my mom is elegant; my mom is glamorous. But my mom is also really real, and I grew up with a mother who had babies crawling on her head and spitting up on her when she was wearing gorgeous, expensive things, and it was never an issue.”
The Stallones

Sylvester Stallone is just about as attractive as you’d expect for a notorious action star. Seriously, we’ve all seen him in Rocky. His glorious abs somehow catapulted the franchise into eight (eight!) different films. He passed his fit frame onto his trio of incredibly gorgeous daughters. Though an elderly Stallone still managed to take home a Golden Globe in 2016 for Creed, the seventh Rocky film, it was his three teenage daughters who stole the show the following year. According to People, Sophia, Sistine, and Scarlet, collectively won the title of Miss Golden Globes in 2017.
“I think that just being able to be with my sisters, [having] my best friends by my side, is going to make this experience absolutely memorable and something I’ll never forget,” second daughter, Sistine, told People.
That same year, the Stallone sisters graced the cover of Harper’s Bazaar, an honor reserved for the most beautiful stars on the planet. It’s not Vogue, but it’ll do. Did we mention their mother, Jennifer Flavin, is also a model?
The Gerbers

Cindy Crawford is one of the most famous models on the planet. Years after her iconic, Daisy Dukes-clad Pepsi commercial debuted, the then-middle-aged star recreated the look for Town & Country magazine. It was as stunning as ever, and as it turns out, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
Crawford’s daughter Kaia Gerber is her spitting image, and while she might not be prancing around in Daisy Dukes yet, the teenager took the globe’s various fashion weeks by storm. According to USA Today, the star “walked dozens of runways” for designers like Longchamp, Anna Sui, Michael Kors and Marc Jacobs in New York, Milan, and Paris for each city’s respective fashion weeks in 2019. After an undeniably long month of jet-setting and walking in heels, the star was scooped from the airport by her brother and chowed down on fast food on the way home. Hey, that In-N-Out was well deserved.
Crawford’s son Presley Gerber is also a model. According to TMZ, the star has been signed to IMG for years and worked on campaigns for Calvin Klein, Dolce & Gabbana and Paris Vogue.
The Smiths

Admit it: most of us grew up having a crush on Will Smith. The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air was indeed fresh — and he still is. Both Will and Jada Pinkett Smith seem immune to the unfortunate but painfully human trait of aging (Hello, Illuminati). The reigning couple of staying eternally youthful has passed the crown onto their offspring Jaden and Willow Smith, who consistently make the fashion world scratch their heads in the best possible way.
Jaden has a knack for breaking down gender barriers, like when he modeled Louis Vuitton dresses in 2016. He also wore a Batman suit to Kim Kardashian’s wedding, leading most of us to believe he confused the American phrase “fancy dress” for the British phrase for costume party. Though really, he shouldn’t have been wearing white.
Jaden isn’t the sole Smith child taking the fashion world by storm. In 2015, Willow signed to The Society Management (the same folks who manage Kendall Jenner) and became the face of Marc Jacobs’ 2015 fall-winter campaign. She also starred in a 2017 Chanel advertisement.
The Harveys

Steve Harvey has a large family. According to Essence, he became a father of seven when he married Marjorie Harvey in 2007. He basically doubled his family’s attractiveness by adding Marjorie’s three children into the mix. Here’s the whole rundown of the insanely attractive Harvey clan:
Lori Harvey, the youngest of the crew, is a muse to celebrity makeup artist Pat McGrath. You might know him by his $125 eyeshadow palettes. She told W Magazine that one must “always cleanse and moisturize your neck and decollete, not just your face,” so we’re already assuming she’ll probably never age. Jason, who is married to a model and runs the luxury footwear company Yevrah, walked a Dolce & Gabbana show alongside Lori and his mom in 2017.
Twins Brandi and Karli are a fitness instructor and fashion columnist, respectively. In other words, they teach people how to look good for a living. Wynton, Steve’s youngest, has also dabbled in modeling and styling like Lori and Jason. According to Essence, Broderick is a “fashion enthusiast” (which totally shows), and Morgan Hawthorne is a food blogger (which means she undeniably knows her way around a camera). Finally, there’s matriarch Marjorie, who wore no less than 10 ensembles to Paris Fashion Week in the fall of 2016. Of course her kids have style.
The Braxtons

We already knew big sister Toni Braxton was the most famous of the Braxton bunch. The girl has a whopping 7 Grammy wins and a total of 11 nominations. She’s stunned on Broadway and navigated her way in and out of bankruptcy (apparently, she can un-break her bank the same way she un-break a heart). Let’s not forget the time she nearly posed in Playboy, as if we didn’t have enough proof of her stunning good looks.
“The women are beautiful. I thought about it,” she said during a 20/20 interview (via ABC News). “The money was tempting, but I’m thinking, I have kids, I have a son, I have boys. What are their friends going to say?”
The rest of the Braxtons have been living it up on reality TV since 2011 with their long-running series Braxton Family Values. Youngest sister Tamar undeniably has a face and attitude built for the genre. The reality star also co-hosted The Real for three years. In 2017, she released her final studio album Bluebird of Happiness.
The Simmonses
Russell Simmons and Kimora Lee have absolutely stunning offspring. Though sons Kenzo Lee and Wolfe Lee are undeniably good looking, the pair’s two daughters are a fashion force to be reckoned with. Both girls served as models for Kimora’s Baby Phat designs. In 2017, they posed together in Kimora’s lookbook for her eponymous line. Ming even wore one of her mother’s designs to prom. Yet, people have the audacity to tell Aoki that she’s “not as pretty” as her mom and sister. In an Instagram Stories post (via E! News), Aoki revealed the real reason she started sharing more photos of her face on the social network.
“I used to be very picky about pictures and not really show my face,” she said (via E! News). “And would often not post pictures of cool events or important moments because I didn’t like my smile or I was standing next to my beautiful sister. It’s easy to get insecure when your sister and mom are models.”
Ming reposted the message and added, “I literally aspire to be my sister.” It just goes to show you, even the most beautiful teens battle insecurity. Having such a stunning family isn’t easy.
The Hamlins
Most millennials know Lisa Rinna from her drama-filled role on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, but the actress is used to a life in the spotlight. The soap opera star spent years on Days of our Lives as the fiercely beautiful Billie Reed, reprising her role in 2018. If Reed ever needed a younger stand-in, Rinna could enlist her daughter Delilah Belle Hamlin (above middle), who’s the spitting image of her gorgeous mom. It’s pretty uncanny.
Both of Rinna’s daughters, Delilah and Amelia Gray Hamlin, are naturally stunning. That’s just happens when your DNA comes from a soap star and 1987’s sexiest man alive. Their good genes have absolutely rocked the fashion world. Amelia, who’s signed to Women 360 Management New York, strutted down the catwalk with other celebri-spawn in a secret Dolce & Gabbana show during Milan Fashion Week in 2017. Though older sister Delilah is more focused on her studies at NYU, she still rocked the runway for Tommy x Gigi (Gigi Hadid’s Tommy Hilfiger capsule collection) during NYFW in 2016.
The Baldwins

The Baldwins are so attractive that even their offspring is in awe. Ireland Baldwin signed to DT Model Management in 2015, according to E! News, and definitely got her good looks from papa Alec Baldwin and mama Kim Basinger, the sex icon from the 1986 blockbuster 9 ½ Weeks. “I have no idea how people are born this beautiful,” Ireland once captioned an Instagram photo of her famous mother.
Moving onto the other side of Baldwin family, Hailey Baldwin, daughter of Stephen and Kennya Baldwin, signed to IMG Models, who helped her land covers at some of the most sought-after fashion magazines. Think: Elle, Marie Claire and Vogue, where she posed alongside her husband, singer-slash-Calvin Klein model Justin Bieber. Incidentally, Bieber’s Calvin Klein ad was so swoon-worthy, it helped catapult sales by a whopping 13 percent, according to Racked.
Hailey’s good looks are so innate that she didn’t even try to model. “It’s not something I always wanted to do,” she told the Yahoo Style (via The Daily Mail). “It was something that just started happening naturally.”
The Hawn-Hudsons

Brigitte Bardot might have popularized curtain bangs, but Goldie Hawn perfected them. The blonde beauty broke into Hollywood in the late ’60s and became known for her signature blonde hair and gorgeous smile. She won an Oscar in 1970 for Cactus Flower and was nominated for 9 Golden Globes throughout her career, but her crowning achievement might just be giving birth to Fabletics guru and actress Kate Hudson. The pair pretty much look like sisters — and they’re just as close.
“I’ve always had a really super open relationship with her,” Kate told E! News in 2016. “I talk about everything. I’m like the person who comes home and can’t hide anything.”
Though Hudson might be the spitting image of her mother, it’s actually a lot of work being that darn gorgeous. When the starlet graduated from her 20s, she started getting serious about her skincare. Previously, her skincare routine consisted of a very relatable nothing (she told The Telegraph she let her skin “take care of itself”). Today, the La Mer brand ambassador follows no less than five daily steps including applying a moisturizing cream, an anti-oxidant serum and an SPF.
The Johnsons

Melanie Griffith has been making the rounds in Hollywood since the ’70s. The Working Girl actress was nominated for an Oscar in 1989, and though she’s a time-tested star and undeniable beauty, her daughter Dakota Johnson is slowly stealing the family spotlight.
Let’s be real: anyone who’s seen any single film in the 50 Shades of Grey trilogy knows its popularity didn’t come from the franchise’s gripping plotlines. It was Johnson’s incredible beauty and steamy scenes with co-star Jamie Dornan that led the franchise to gross more than $1.3 billion worldwide. Johnson’s part was so revealing that Griffith and father Don Johnson never made it to the theater.
“It’s inappropriate for them. But they’re OK about it,” Johnson told Hello! (via The Evening Standard). “They don’t judge me on what projects I decide to do in my work. They judge me on what kind of human I am to other humans.”
The Combses

Diddy has always been a fashion icon. The rap mogul first dabbled in the world of luxury clothing with Sean John in 1998. According to Racked, his runway shows were frequented by celebs like Paris Hilton and Anna Wintour. He even purchased “a 50% partnership” in Zac Posen’s line. That kind of talent didn’t stray far from the family tree. The bad boy has an equally as stylish son who made waves after walking two Dolce & Gabbana fashion shows in Milan, according to W Magazine. Christian Combs is the spitting image of his father, who happened to teach him the modeling ropes when he first starred in a Sean John campaign.
“He was teaching me how to pose, how to look into the camera and have my swag on… that was definitely a memorable moment,” he told Essence. “He said, ‘give ’em the eye of the tiger and stay in your zone!'”
Christian isn’t the only Combs sibling making waves. Diddy’s twin daughters D’Lila and Jessie, along with sister Chance, made their break into the world of modeling in 2014. People reports the trio starred in a spring/summer campaign for Ruum American Kid’s Wear.

Accidental ‘crying horse’ toy wins hearts in China
At Yiwu International Trade City, China’s largest wholesale market, customers crowd into a small shop searching for an unlikely bestseller ahead of the Lunar New Year.
They are looking for a red plush horse with a downturned mouth, a gold bell around its neck, and eyes that appear to shy away from a viewer’s gaze. The toy has gone viral on Chinese social media ahead of the Spring Festival holiday, which this year marks the Year of the Horse in the Chinese zodiac.
Called the “crying horse” by online users, the toy was designed as a happy-faced Lunar New Year decoration, but a manufacturing mistake turned its smile into a frown.
“A worker sewed the mouth on upside down by accident,” said Zhang Huoqing, owner of the Yiwu-based shop Happy Sister.
Zhang said she offered a refund after discovering the flaw, but the customer never returned the toy. Not long after, she discovered photos of it circulating online.
“People joked that the crying horse is how you look at work, while the smiling one is how you look after work,” Zhang said. As demand surged, Zhang decided to keep making the sad-faced version.
Some young white-collar workers in China say the horse’s dour expression mirrors their long hours and workplace stress.
It also taps into a broader trend for so-called “ugly-cute” toys, popularised in recent years by characters such as Pop Mart’s (9992.HK), opens new tab toothy monster Labubu.
“These days, almost everyone who walks through the door asks for the crying horse,” said Lou Zhenxian, a Yiwu vendor who has sold festive toys for more than 25 years.
By early afternoon, racks of crying horses outside Happy Sister had sold out and employees were rushing to restock the shelves.
“We will keep selling it,” Zhang said. “This crying horse really fits the reality of modern working people.”

Dubai makes stylish cameo in The Devil Wears Prada sequel
Fashion has officially clocked back in, and yes, it’s wearing Prada. We barely had time to recover from The Devil Wears Prada 2 trailer before eagle-eyed fans spotted something else: Handbags from Dubai-based luxury label Dellaluna by Silvia Paulon, carried on screen by none other than Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway.
Styled by Molly Rogers, Hathaway’s Andy Sachs is seen with the Imperial Silver Clutch, custom-made for the film, while Streep’s ice-cold Miranda Priestly grips the Louvre Abu Dhabi Bag, created as part of an upcoming collaboration with the iconic museum. For Paulon, seeing her designs land in one of fashion’s most legendary film franchises was overwhelming. “I flew to New York and hand delivered the bags myself,” she told Vogue Arabia. “After that, it’s completely out of your control. I woke up one morning and my Instagram was suddenly going crazy.”
All this buzz comes as 20th Century Studios officially unveiled the trailer for the long-awaited sequel to the 2006 cult classic. The Devil Wears Prada 2 is set to hit cinemas on May 1, bringing back the original dream (or nightmare) team: Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci reprising their roles as Miranda Priestly, Andy Sachs, Emily Charlton, and Nigel Kipling.
How The Devil Wears Prada was a fashion reset
Fashion was the main character in the film. The costume design was led by Patricia Field, who assembled a wardrobe of over 100 outfits drawn from top fashion houses and carefully sourced pieces to give each character a distinct visual identity.
At the centre was Meryl Streep’s Miranda Priestly, whose wardrobe communicated authority, wealth, and an almost icy command. Field drew on archival pieces and worked with designers like Donna Karan to build looks that felt tailored. Priestly’s signature came from a mix of high-end menswear and statement outerwear, often in muted monochromes, and was anchored by her impeccable white hair. That’s all, indeed.
In contrast, Anne Hathaway’s Andy Sachs begins the film with a deliberately uninspired wardrobe, ill-fitting sweaters and shapeless pieces that visually underline her outsider status in the fashion world. As Andy becomes more obsessed in Runway magazine’s culture, and a lot more confident while…being run down by Priestly, her looks turn innto bold designer staples from Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana, and Valentino, with pieces like Chanel thigh-high boots and a velvet Chanel coat during a key social event.
Supporting characters also wear looks that reflected their style. Emily Blunt’s Emily Charlton opts for edgier, fashion-forward pieces, while Stanley Tucci’s Nigel combines sophistication with creative flair, grounding the film’s aesthetic in real runway-level style.

Netflix to Livestream BTS Comeback Concert
Streaming giant Netflix said Tuesday it will livestream BTS’s comeback concert to around 190 countries in what could be the largest live K-pop event to date as the megastars return from military service.
The global stars and South Korea’s biggest music act have been on a hiatus since 2022 while members completed mandatory military service.
All seven members were discharged last year, and the band have confirmed they will release a new album, ARIRANG, on March 20 and stage a free comeback concert in central Seoul’s Gwanghwamun Square the following day before heading on tour.
“BTS THE COMEBACK LIVE | ARIRANG will stream live exclusively on Netflix March 21,” the streaming giant said.
It said the performance would be broadcast live to viewers in more than 190 countries.
Their new album, ARIRANG, named after a Korean folk song about longing and separation often seen as an unofficial national anthem, will be their first since the anthology “Proof”, which became South Korea’s bestselling record of 2022.
The new album “contains a deep reflection on the team’s origins and identity”, Netflix said, adding a new documentary featuring the band’s return, titled “BTS: THE RETURN” will be launched on March 27.
Their world tour, kicking off in April, will span 34 cities with 79 shows — the largest single tour by a K-pop group by total performances and the widest regional reach for a South Korean artist, according to their label HYBE.
BTS are big business in South Korea. Before their military service, they generated more than 5.5 trillion won ($3.8 billion) for the country a year, according to Seoul’s Korea Culture and Tourism Institute.
The figure is equivalent to 0.2 percent of South Korea’s total GDP.
HYBE shares were up 2.5 percent in the morning trade in Seoul.
