When a person has some kind of physiological defect, he often seeks to hide or correct it with the help of plastic surgeons. Unfortunately, sometimes both options are not possible. This material will tell about celebrities from all over the world, whose physical disability made them recognizable and became one of the reasons why they became famous.
1. Big breasts Anna Semenovich - the result of a hereditary genetic disease
Many observant people noticed that when pop singer Anna Semenovich was a professional skater in her youth, her breasts were not as big as they are now. And they suspected the star of having enlarged her breasts with silicone to a huge size. That's just not the case at all. At the end of 2019, the star admitted in the SECRET FOR A MILLION program that she suffers from hereditary gigantomastia. This is a genetic malfunction, due to which a woman's breasts continue to grow throughout her life (it is diagnosed on the condition that each woman's breast weighs more than 2.5 kg).
Interesting fact. When Semenovich's breasts reached size 10 a few years ago, she plastically reduced it to size 6. But even after the operation, the breasts continued to grow. The artist is very upset, as she is planning a pregnancy next year, and the doctors cannot give her any comforting forecast: they fear that during lactation, each singer's breast may begin to weigh 4 kilograms, and this is a great risk to the woman's health and life.
2. Joaquin Phoenix's hare lip made his acting image recognizable and tragic
The most sensational film of 2019 was the film JOKER, starring the actor Joaquin Phoenix, who is currently receiving awards such as OSCAR and GOLDEN GLOBE for Best Actor. At birth, Joaquin Phoenix had such a congenital defect as a cleft lip. His relatively wealthy parents partially mitigated this deficiency by performing an operation on the baby to reduce this defect. But the problem has not completely disappeared. However, becoming an adult, the actor did not consider it necessary to hide this flaw to the very end. And it became his calling card. Until adulthood, Joaquin did not have iconic roles. However, in 2019, the actor became iconic thanks to his role in the movie JOKER. He now has millions of fans. And the physical defect on the face of the actor / character added sympathy to his on-screen image.
3. The unearthly voice of the SCORPIONS soloist - the result of surgery for throat cancer
The voice of the lead singer of the German group SCORPIONS makes us feel butterflies in our stomach. His vocals are among the top 5 most recognizable voices of all time. But the soloist did not get this voice from birth and not due to genetic reasons. This is the result of surgery after … throat cancer. These unearthly notes were a fluke after the artist underwent a series of surgeries to save his life due to a diagnosed throat cancer.
4. The facial expressions of Nagiyev are so funny to us, because he … experienced paralysis of the facial nerve in his youth
When we see Dmitry Nagiyev, we are … already funny. But it was not funny more than 20 years ago to a young student of the acting university, when one morning he woke up and realized that … he did not feel half of his face. The young man was diagnosed with complete paralysis of half of the face due to a facial nerve injury of unknown origin. The actor was treated for several months, as a result of which he regained the ability to speak clearly and move his face. But the problem was not completely resolved. As a result, we have an actor whose facial expressions are so unusual that he has earned the status of a terrific comedian. That's for sure: every cloud has a silver lining.
