You don't have to be perfect to be popular. Small flaws can be turned into a highlight, and flaws in appearance can be compensated for by charm. Here is a photo-list of actors who are not shy about their teeth, although orthodontists and dentists would gladly take on them.
Keira Knightley
- Doctor Zhivago, Pride and Prejudice, Aftermath, The Nutcracker and the Four Kingdoms
The demand for Kira in the modern world of cinema proves that the world needs individuality, not an ideal. The actress naturally has a malocclusion, but Knightley never planned to correct it. The British actress admits that she never wanted to have an unnatural Hollywood smile. She happily bares her teeth in a smile and visits the dentist only for preventive purposes. Leading brands call her for commercials and photosets, and directors and fans do not appreciate her for her teeth.
Steve Buscemi
- The Big Lebowski, The Dead Don't Die, Reservoir Dogs, Fargo
Actor and director Steve Buscemi is completely indifferent to fashion standards and concepts of beauty. He is what he is, and that is why each of his characters is remembered by the audience for a long time. Buscemi admitted in an interview that many dentists wanted to fix his teeth, but he categorically refused such offers, because with a perfect smile he would cease to be an individual and simply lose his job.
Vanessa Paradis
- "Girl on the Bridge", "Cafe de Flore", "Eliza", "Witchcraft Love"
Vanessa is one of those actresses who smile with their teeth. Despite the congenital diastema - the gap between the front teeth, the actress simply conquers the representatives of the opposite sex with her appearance. For a long time, the French actress was the woman of one of the finest actors of our time, Johnny Depp. She inspires many, and her chink has become a kind of highlight - in 2011, a limited series of lip-shaped brooches with a Paradis chink came out in France.
Benedict Cumberbatch
- "Good Intentions", "Doctor Strange", "12 Years a Slave", "Sherlock"
Briton Cumberbatch cannot be called handsome, but how much charm this actor has! Benedict gained real popularity after the release of the series "Sherlock". He has acquired a whole army of female fans who completely ignore the flaws in the actor's appearance. Cumberbatch overcompensates for his crooked teeth with a beautiful body and breathtaking charisma.
Tom Cruise
- "Rain Man", "Mission Impossible", "Interview with the Vampire", "The Last Samurai"
Many viewers know how sensitive this Hollywood actor is to his appearance. As a teenager, Tom suffered from terrible teeth, and when he became a star, he immediately ran to fix the problem to the best specialists. Now it may seem that Cruise has a real Hollywood smile, but this is not entirely true. The fact is that now the actor has become the owner of the so-called "mono-tooth" - a defect caused by numerous dental interventions.
Brigitte Bardot
- "Women", "Three steps in delirium", "Dance with me", "Parisian"
Style icon and sex symbol of the last century Brigitte Bardot also refers to the actors with bad teeth. It's hard to imagine, but as a child, the actress suffered from squint, malocclusion and a number of not very pleasant problems with her appearance. Strabismus was corrected in her teens, and Brigitte's dental problems became her calling card. The slightly protruding lower lip after the image created by Bardo was considered a sign of sensuality.
Anna Paquin
- "Piano", "Brave Heart of Irena Sendler", "Irishman", "She's Grace"
Oscar-winning actress Anna Paquin has no worries about her imperfect smile. The actress admits in her interviews that she really likes the gap between her teeth. Anna never wanted to change anything in her appearance and is very annoyed when she is asked questions about her teeth.
Kirsten Dunst
- Mona Lisa Smile, Little Women, Spider-Man, Jumanji
The actress is not at all shy about her bite, and this is not surprising - it was the problems with her teeth that brought real fame to Kirsten. At the age of 12, Dunst played in the cult film "Interview with the Vampire" without any false fangs, and after the premiere she woke up famous. She never had the thought of making her smile perfect. Moreover, according to Kirsten, her sharp fangs look sexy. She is very glad that as a child she did not give in to her mother's persuasion to correct her teeth with the help of special plates.
Charlie Sheen
- "Two and a Half Men", "Wall Street", "Hotheads", "Twisted City"
Once a popular actor who has appeared in scandalous chronicles more often than on screens in recent years, Charlie Sheen also has dental problems. More precisely, the actor has problems with their absence. Charlie has gold dentures in place of teeth lost during drunken parties. The actor decided to resort to the cheapest way to restore what was lost, and he is completely indifferent to what others think about it.
Johnny Depp
- Edward Scissorhands, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Cocaine, From Hell
One of the most coveted Hollywood actors, Johnny Depp, will be a worthy completion of our photo list of actors who are not shy about their teeth. His crooked and non-whitened teeth do not spoil the overall picture at all. In addition to birth defects, Johnny added some acquired ones to himself - after participating in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, the actor kept the metal teeth of his character, Jack Sparrow, and after the role of the Hatter in Alice Through the Looking Glass, he installed metal grizzlies.
