She’s one of Australia’s best actresses and for three decades Nicole Kidman has been widely regarded as one of the world’s most beautiful women.
But the Aussie beauty’s look has dramatically changed since she burst onto the scene as a 16-year-old, starring in 1983 children’s adventure film BMX Bandits.
Looking at photos from then and now, it’s hard to believe it’s the same person.
With an unruly mane of ginger hair, a plump face and unkempt eyebrows, the young star couldn’t look less like the preened and perfect screen goddess she has become.
Let’s look back at Nicole’s amazing transformation.
