Who wore “young” better? Celebrity moms and daughters side-by-side.

Dylan Frances Penn really looks like her mom.

I always think this when I watch movies from the 40s and the 50s. Women as young as 23-25 just look so so poised and polished and glamorous. I think it's the posture, speech, clothes hair and makeup all rolled into one!

I am PP - and for me this is so different from movies from the 40s and 50s! (Though my lord were women glamorous there, too.) Here it's more the 70s, 80s, and 90s. They have wild hair and big smiles, and just look like they are actually having fun. It's one of the things that looks so sad in photos of young people, today - they looks so uptight. Overly sexualized (but not actually having sex), overly made up, and then taking just constantly taking photos instead of enjoying their young lives. I'm sure they're having a better time than I realize. It was - of all people - the photo of Kris Jenner smiling, with the pic of Kim K at the same age, that really drove that home for me. Kris just looked free in a different way than Kim did.



But yeah the women in movies in the 40s and 50s are amazing looking.

I think the main difference is that Kris Jenner was more naturally good looking than her daughters. That's why a candid of Kris Jenner looks better than Kim all made up. The counterpoint is Zooey Deutch and Lea Thompson - both very attractive women.

Ok, Robin Wright and her daughter look so alike that it's freaky. Less so the longer you look at the pictures but when I first saw it, I did the Pam Beasley "It's the same picture."

Oh gosh Lea Thompson - my youth comes back. Even she and her daughter, you still sort of see it - though her daughter doesn't look overly sexualized or miserable, at least. But she's still styled and coated with makeup in a way that looks like armor, while Lea looks like she could get up from this photo session and go out and do something fun.

Maybe what I'm just saying is that I miss being able to see people's actual skin instead of an air brushed, glazed, botoxed to death coat of armor.

AFAIK Kris's parents didn't sell her sex tape and pimp her out to the world. I feel sorry for Kim.

I'm impressed the whole family committed to the same plastic surgery nose. They could have had anything and they chose this.

My favorites are those with Susan Sarandon and Meryl Streep.

PP here - I agree completely. It's sort of boring now that everyone is styled within an inch of their life.

Also, they weren't having all the extreme plastic surgery.

That’s Kathy Hilton? She’s had so much work done since then.

Me again - and (because now I can't stop clicking) it's clearly not true across the board. A lot of the kids look fantastic, and look like normal people. It probably is just mostly me being an old and liking styles better from when I was young.

But still, like it's just striking to look at how natural Lisa Rinna (! - not known for looking natural!!) looks here compared to her kids

I would never have recognized Lisa Rinna in a million years.
