Beauty

Elle Macpherson is a model of genetic superiority.

Here's the then 25-year-old Sports Illustrated cover girl at a New York City event back in 1989 (left) and 25 years later -- the now 49-year-old mother of two at a fashion event in Paris earlier this year (right).

Elle-oh!

Erin Andrews took a break from being yelled at by NFL superstars to remind you ... she's actually in pretty good shape.

Andrews and L.A. Kings star Jarret Stoll are on a little couples retreat at the moment -- and decided to spice things up with a stand-up paddle board session.

Not as exciting as getting screamed at by Richard Sherman ... but still, impressive.

Bruce Jenner was his old self Wednesday night, motivating college students with a pep talk about achieving your goals.

Bruce -- a very successful motivational speaker -- had the crowd at Mercyhurst University eating out of his hand. And speaking of his hand ... check out the wedding ring.

Also check out what Bruce is wearing. His hair is pulled back into his signature ponytail and he's wearing a traditional suit.

Bruce spent a good chunk of the hour talking about his 1976 Olympic victory ... a frequent topic of conversation for him.

We got a short clip of the speech. During another part he told the Erie, PA crowd, "Steal, lie, cheat and gamble ... but in a good way" ... and then went on to explain what he meant.

Bruce Jenner is NOT changing his identity ... he's just going through a mid-life crisis and is addicted to plastic surgery -- this according to sources close to the Kardashian family and Jenner sons.

Family sources say the klan does not buy what increasingly looks like gender reassignment. They say Bruce is changing his look because of his "Michael Jackson-like obsession with plastic surgery."

They say he is struggling to re-gain his youth. They point to the fact that he's moved to Malibu, grown his hair long and had a ponytail for a long time, drives a Harley, and has changed his nose and neck.

We're told the family has actually counseled him against all the surgery, saying he was a good looking man to begin with, but he wouldn't listen.

They also echo the story TMZ posted Tuesday -- that Bruce is "super manly," the family saying, "He loves sports, helicopters and cars."

It's interesting ... because we also know that when Bruce golfs at the Sherwood Country Club he constantly talks about the '76 Olympics where he won gold. It's also when he was young and great looking, which kind of supports the family's position.

Jennifer Lopez's ass went all "Fatal Attraction" in a tiny pair of tropical shorts ... shouting to the world: "I'm not gonna be ignored."

The 44-year-old mother of two flaunted her endless legs and famous cheeks while filming a music video with Pitbull and Brazilian singer Claudia Leitte in Ft. Lauderdale for the song "We Are One."

Or, in this case ... two.

Former Nickelodeon boy band star James Maslow no longer looks like Donny Osmond's stunt double ... these days he could nearly pass for Captain America.

Maslow's transformation in the last year is unbelievable ... going from some 70s mop-haired baby-faced cheeseball to a Chris Evans look-alike in a matter of months.

A good move ... especially if he wants to keep getting jobs in Hollywood ... and not at some Atlantic City variety show.

Kurt Russell's looks are "The Thing" that dreams are made of.

Here's the then 38-year-old "Captain Ron" star at a movie theater in Universal City back in 1989 (left) -- and 25 years later... the now 62-year-old A-lister at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year (right).

Bruce Jenner is changing his look in an arguably radical way, but day-to-day Bruce is a man's man.

At the time of this post, Bruce is having lunch in the men's only dining room at the Sherwood Country Club in Thousand Oaks. He's a fixture at the club, golfing almost every day -- typically wearing khakis and golf shirts.

People at the club tell us ... Bruce -- who is one of the best golfers there -- talks about sports all the time. He regularly recounts his glory days at the '76 Olympics. And he loves talking about helicopters.

Bruce is very outgoing, helping people out -- especially kids -- giving them pointers.

It's a pretty sharp contrast -- Bruce's physical appearance and his masculine personality.

NY Fashion Week is looking like an episode of Wild Kingdom .... only with tortured, dead animals.

With NYC temps in the 20s ... the glam squad is breaking out expensive fur coats made of wild beasts -- sable, lynx, mink, fox.

Mary J. Blige ... Debra Messing ... Kenya Moore... Chrissy Teigen ... all offenders.

Bruce Jenner was out and about Monday near L.A. ... with a new, shaved Adam's Apple and a very popular woman's hair style.

Check out the pic ... Bruce got himself an ombre hair coloring where the color reverses the norm. It becomes lighter toward the ends. In other words, it goes from dark at the root to light at the end. It matches Khloe and Kylie's hairdos.

As for the Adam's Apple -- it looks pretty clean ... and smooth.

Heidi Klum basked in a make-shift banana hammock as she watched her son's soccer practice.

The "America's Got Talent" judge made it typically difficult for soccer dads to focus on the Brentwood, CA field.

Legendary wrestling villain Paul Heyman recently hacked off his iconic ponytail ... but he insists it was NOT because the WWE's head honcho wanted him to update his look.

Heyman recently returned to the WWE with Brock Lesnar ... but his signature ponytail was nowhere in sight.

In Thursday's WWE Inbox Paul was asked if Triple H ordered the chop.

The ECW pioneer blanched and said he had a very good reason that had nothing to do with HHH.

R.I.P. -- Heyman's Ponytail

Lebron James' cuticles are going to look FABULOUS when he squares off against the Clippers tonight ... 'cause TMZ Sports has learned, LBJ and teammates dropped $500 at a Beverly Hills nail salon yesterday.

LeBron -- along with at least 3 other teammates including Ray Allen, Roger Mason Jr. and Udonis Haslem -- hit up Bella Nails and treated themselves to manis, pedis, and massages.

King James proudly posted the photo evidence online right after the outing ... with the explanatory caption "Have to take care of your dogs Men! It's part of our life blood!"

Pampering -- it's not just for chicks anymore.
