Demi Moore has done it again. At 62, the Hollywood icon has been named People magazine’s ‘World’s Most Beautiful’ for 2025.
The announcement set social media ablaze, with fans and critics weighing in.
COVER STAR DEMI MOORE
For fans who grew up watching Moore in classics like Ghost and G.I. Jane, her new title is both a celebration and a conversation starter.
Moore graced the cover in a teal Schiaparelli dress with gold accents, her dark hair flowing, according to Parade.
Instagram exploded with praise. “Stunning,” wrote one fan. “Gorgeous,” said another. Others kept it simple: “Wow!” and “Queen!” flooded the comments.
GOLDEN GLOBE WINNER DEMI MOORE
This honour caps a whirlwind year for Moore. She recently won a Golden Globe for her role in The Substance, a film about ageing and identity.
In her acceptance speech, she urged people to stop comparing themselves to others.
“You can never be enough by someone else’s standards. But you can know your worth when you stop measuring,” she said.
GETTING OLDER IN HOLLYWOOD
Demi Moore opened up about her journey with ageing in Hollywood. She admitted, “I have a greater appreciation for all that my body has been through that has brought me to now.
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”.
DEMI MOORE ON BEAUTY
When asked how she defines beauty now, Moore replied, “In a way, beauty just is. You can look at a flower and see its beauty.
On a human level, I find its authenticity and positivity. Beauty comes out of comfort with being exactly who you are”.
DIVIDED OPINIONS
While many fans celebrated Demi Moore’s authenticity, others were divided. Some questioned her history with cosmetic surgery, sparking debates about what beauty means.
One critic commented, “Plastic is not beauty.” Another said, “Pick someone that represents a true beauty that hasn’t had work done.
Set an example for young girls that they can be beautiful without cosmetic surgery”.
But the overwhelming response was positive. Words like “Diva”, “Goddess”, and “Icon” dominated the conversation.
POWER OF SELF-ACCEPTANCE
Demi Moore’s story is a reminder that beauty evolves. It’s not just about looks, but about self-acceptance and resilience. As Moore herself put it, “Beauty comes out of comfort with being exactly who you are”.
Demi Moore’s journey proves that age is just a number—and beauty, real beauty, is timeless.
