Demi Moore, 62, Is the New “World’s Most Beautiful” — and It’s Stirring Controversy

Demi Moore has just been crowned the “World’s Most Beautiful” by People Magazine, and the internet has a lot to say about it. While many fans are celebrating the actress’s timeless beauty, others are raising eyebrows and debating whether the title was truly deserved. Let’s take a closer look at how people are reacting to this headline-making announcement.

On the cover of the magazine’s special issue, Moore stuns in a teal Schiaparelli dress with gold details. Her long, dark hair flows freely, and the bold headline reads, “Of course it’s Demi!” The photo quickly went viral, drawing admiration from many — but also sparking debates about beauty standards and age in the entertainment industry.

In her interview with People, Moore got real about the challenges of aging in the spotlight. She admitted that being famous has brought both tough moments and valuable lessons. “Fame has put [her] through the wringer,” but it also “forced” her to face “issues of self-judgment and lack of appreciation.”

Despite the pressure to stay youthful in Hollywood, Moore says she’s learning to embrace who she is today. “I have a greater appreciation for all that my body has been through that brought me to now,” she shared.

“It doesn’t mean that sometimes I look in the mirror and don’t go, ‘Oh God, I look old,’ or ‘Oh, my face is falling’ — I do. But I can accept that that’s where I’m at today, and I know the difference today is that it doesn’t define my value or who I am.”

When asked what beauty means to her now, Moore gave a thoughtful answer. “In a way, beauty just is,” she said. “You can look at a flower and see its beauty. On a human level, I find it’s authenticity and positivity. Beauty comes out of comfort with being exactly who you are.”

She also reflected on life experiences, like childbirth, to explain her perspective on growth and pain. “Giving birth is one of the only times that you can 100 percent know that pain is bringing you a gift,” she says. “And when you can apply that to other things, you start to see that that is a truth of all things that are difficult.”

People had mixed reactions to Demi Moore being named the most beautiful woman. Some praised the choice and were genuinely happy for the actress. One person wrote, “She looks amazing! She deserves it!”

Others, however, expressed their disapproval. One person expressed outrage, “Her plastic surgeon should get an award.” Another quickly backed them up, “She does not even look like Demi Moore anymore.” The third person wrote, “Not good to celebrate someone who has been rebuilt better to celebrate natural beauty. Not a good role model for women today.”

Not long ago, Demi shared a photo in a bikini, playfully enjoying time by the pool with her granddaughter — and it sparked a wave of admiration.
