'All about the look': Internet slams Kim Kardashian for hiding her face while trying out aging filter
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The internet labeled Kim Kardashian as "shallow" following her cringing reaction to a viral TikTok aging filter that aged her wrinkle-free face.
In the video posted on the social media platform on Tuesday by her makeup artist, Ariel Tejada, the 43-year-old Skims founder was seen smiling as her friend captured her entire face on camera.
Subsequently, the filter started to simulate the aging of Kardashian's face over 50 years, starting from 2023.
Kim's experimentation with filters came in the wake of Jennifer Love Hewitt's recent backlash against trolls.
Hewitt, who was criticized for being "unrecognizable" after sharing photos of her hair transformation in August, stated, "Aging in Hollywood is really hard. You can't do anything right."
Kim Kardashian's viral TikTok aging filter
In an industry where the topic of "aging" is delicate, there are only a handful of celebrities who accept it, while others express concern.
Tejada, a long-time collaborator with Kim and her family, pointed out in the outtake that the mother of four "had no clue [the filter] was gonna start aging her."
Kim, known for preserving her natural beauty and sporting her slicked-back raven hair with a side part, was taken aback as she watched her face age, with wrinkles appearing around her eyes and mouth.
Reacting to her transformed appearance, she covered her face with her hand, which was adorned with a black and nude ombre, pointy manicure, in a gesture of shock, per Daily Mail.
On the other side, Dame Helen Mirren, the 78-year-old actress, embraces aging without any limits. In an interview with Britain's Hello! magazine, she shared, "I say celebrate it, don't fight it. You die young, or you get old, and I don't want to die young."
Meanwhile, Cher, the 77-year-old singer said she would "give anything to be 70 again."
Jamie Lee Curtis, who celebrated her 65th birthday in November, confidently shared a striking photo of herself on Instagram, showcasing her legs without any hesitation.
The video featuring Kim's cringing reaction to the TikTok makeup artist’s work has garnered over 8.6 million views, per Page Six.
