Age takes it toll on all of us. No matter how rich or poor that's a universal truth. Some may try to stave off the effects of aging with surgeries and beauty products but eventually, age wins. That's just the way it goes. Let's take a look at some celebs who have been hit harder by aging than others.
Formerly Beautiful Celebs Who Have Turned Into Monsters Over The Years.
#1 Pamela Anderson
The former Baywatch beauty has lived a hard, stressful life between substance abuse and terrible relationships. Her looks have suffered for it.
#2 Axl Rose
Axl has earned millions of dollars throughout his long career but aging and lifestyle choices have made him almost unrecognizable at this point.
#3 Melanie Griffith
Melanie Griffith fell into the cosmetic surgery trap. After a few bad procedures, she looks nothing like she used to. You can only fight age so long.
#4 Macaulay Culkin
In his defense, Macaulay has cleaned up his act, shaved and is looking a bit better these days but no one could have imagined that the cute kid from Home Alone would grow up to look like he does.
#5 Ozzy Osbourne
Ozzy is living proof that drugs and alcohol are bad. His looks were not the only thing that suffered. If you have ever tried to listen to the man talk it's like listening to slurred mumbling rants.
#6 Nick Nolte
Nick used to be a go-to leading man in Hollywood. Once his drinking got out of hand his looks gradually went away.
#7 Jessica Simpson
Jessica Simpson has gone through so much throughout her career that it's hard to imagine it wouldn't have affected the way she has aged. At her lowest point, she looked like the image on the right. Thankfully she has gotten her life back together and is looking stunning again.
#8 Matthew Perry
The former Friends star isn't looking too friendly these days. Maybe that's why the years haven't been too kind to him.
#9 Lindsay Lohan
Drugs, alcohol and the fast life in Hollywood almost got the better of Lindsay. She has gotten her life back on track and is looking much better these days. She is a far cry from the days of looking like a strung out crack head trying to find a fix.
#10 Kirstie Alley
Kirstie has been fighting a never ending battle with her weight. One minute she's huge, the next minute she is thin. Lately, age has made it so the weight struggles are a bit more one-sided as it has become harder for her to keep the weight off.
#11 Prince William
Prince William was once considered one of the sexiest men alive. As he's aged though, the charming good looks have begun to fade and now he looks more like your creepy uncle.
#12 Val Kilmer
During the 80's and most of the 90's Val was one of Hollywoods go to stars. Then he dropped off the face of the earth and when he resurfaced no one recognized him due to considerable weight gain. Aging hasn't been kind to him, to say the least.
#13 Goldie Hawn
Once the Hollywood standard of beauty she was the girl next door. Unlike most of the ladies on this list her decline wasn't due to surgery, it just so happens that she hasn't aged well. There is no shame in that.
#14 Chevy Chase
One of the funniest men to ever appear on screen, Chevy has had a hard life. Drugs and alcohol combined with age to transform the Vacation star into an unrecognizable shell of his former self. Still, he's the funniest man in almost any room he enters so he has that going for him.
#15 Janice Dickinson
The self-proclaimed "first supermodel" isn't even a shadow of her former self. Between the drugs, alcohol, relationships and botched surgeries, Dickinson has truly turned herself into a monster. With her attitude and the way she treats people, it couldn't have happened to a more fitting person.
#16 Donatella Versace
Donatella may have an eye for fashion but she has no clue when enough is enough. Once she was a beautiful woman but due to countless surgeries, she looks more like a creature you would find lurking in a basement than a high-end fashion designer.
