Beauty
Sophia Loren: Good Genes or Good Docs?

Sophia Loren is an Italian goddess.

La Loren

Here's the 31-year-old Oscar-winner back in 1965 (left) -- and 44 years later, the 75-year-old version at some event in London this week (right).

Ciao bella.

1. What a stupid question to ask.

2. She looks damm good surgery or not, but is it just me or do her lips appear THINNER. Weird. The bottom looks about the same but the top lip looks thinner. At least she doesn't look like a blow up doll or like she can't close her eyes. Her eyebrows actually look more natural now, too.

3. Holly....as a person ages, the lips become thinner while the tip of the nose and earlobes continue to grow. Weird, I know.


I think Sophia looks AMAZING at any age! She is a true beauty and is as beautiful on the inside as the outside. She is the real definition of a LADY.

5. Lost lass:
I am in the medical profession and understand the aging process. Sorry, that was my lame attempt at being a little facetious in that she has actually NOT tried reversing the process too much. Most people get injectables and I was amazed that she hadn't, that's all.

6. I'm sure she's had a few things done, you have to if you are famous but at 75 NO amount of surgery can make you look that young, she takes very good care of herself. She never over exercised (which wastes your skin and facial muscles away ) ,she always ate three meals a day with no snacks and she always sleeps 8 to ten-even when she was in her teens. Sophia's body is fabulous too. She has better figure than most woman a quarter of her age : 38C-26-37! Who in Hollywood has a waist that tiny?

7. Sophia Loren and Raquel Welsh are two timeless beauties that the heavens and good living have been kind to. Good genes offered a good start, but you know that self-respect and an informed lifestyle have much to do with that kind of persistent health. Not sure about Loren but Welsh has for years always talked about a very healthy lifestyle. Hope some others follow that path, those vibrant youngins, like Carmen Electra the health and acting dynamo. Now who else, let me see, well who cares about a list, it's essentially for everyone to get on the health plan and not the neglect plan. "Eat thine fibre, SPF thine face and limbs, you'll look 40 when you're 80 if you stick to good livin'". And that's the last time I'll ever issue the word "thine", which isn't a word anyway, dammit. Tomorrow our guests will be Number 3, the letter L and we'll talk about Nouns. Bye for now.

Well everything that you can see
and everything you can be
well they're called nouns

8. yeah right, she must have a good sugeon and at the same time her good genes helps, if you look below her neck is a bit loose. either way she looks good

9. Sorry people, but this woman is who you would see if you looked up "class' in a dictionary ! The absolute top example of it ! No one,except maybe Jackie O, even came close ! She reeks of it! A shining example of class to all those up and coming stars. A woman who came from nothing,but became a world wide "star",back when there were stars that is.She attracted stars like Cary Grant,Peter Sellers,even John Wayne,etc,who all became besotted by her.One dam fine actress too!!!!!!!! Look and learn people,look and learn!!!!!!!!!

10. i'll say it's a combination of both but either way she still looks gorgeous, classic beauty

11. Natural beauty needs no touch-ups.....and she IS a natural beauty. Ciao!

12. She never was and isn't now a beauty. My husband was speaking in Rome five or six years ago and she was at a restaurant with a very drunk Trini Lopez (I think). Any how it did cause quite a stir when she entered. She was dressed totally inappropriately. Here is the weird part later I need to use the restroom. I went into a stall as Sophia vacated. She did not FLUSH and there sat the largest corn filled stool hanging over the toilet seat. Every time I see her I think of the stench of that stall.

13. Her jowls drape interestingly around her ears for her years....which suggests a face lift to me.

14. Fire, this moron! This is not news or any thing?

15. Good docs, then again, the poll should just say "Docs" nothing good about the work she's had done!... She looks like a haloween mask. Now in a "Who'd you rather?" between her and Joan Rivers?? What you think TMZ?? Do it!!!
