    10 cute baby photos of celebrities when they were little

    Life

    by Ruman Baig
    34 mins ago

    While we usually see celebrities in the spotlight, juggling their careers and lives in the public eye, it’s fun to remember that they too were once wide-eyed children full of dreams. We often lose touch with our inner child as adults, bogged down by responsibilities, but a glimpse of these baby photos can remind us all to embrace that part of ourselves.

    Let’s start with a few adorable throwbacks. Who can forget that viral baby photo of Kendall Jenner in her tiny, frilly dress, grinning at the camera? Or Sheikha Mahra, as a curious toddler with bright eyes, long before he became the poised Princess? Seeing Alia Bhatt as a bubbly little girl with her infectious smile or Karen Wazen daydreaming with those big eyes, brings us right back to that innocence and wonder of childhood.

    These photos remind us that before their red carpet moments, all celebrities were just little kids figuring out the world. It’s a comforting thought. Growing up, we tend to suppress that part of ourselves in the name of maturity. The pressures of adult life—work, bills, responsibilities—often make it hard to indulge our inner child. But sometimes, reconnecting with that playful side is exactly what we need.
    Studies have shown that keeping a bit of our inner child alive helps reduce stress, boosts creativity, and even increases resilience. Those carefree moments of laughter, curiosity, and imagination can re-energize us in ways we may not expect. So, let’s take a cue from these celebrities and remember to nurture that playful side.

    It’s always fun to see stars share a slice of their childhood. In a world where we see polished, curated images on social media, there’s something endearing about seeing them as babies with untamed curls, chubby cheeks, and wide smiles. So, this Children’s Day, take a moment to look at your own childhood photos, laugh at those early memories, and let your inner child shine a little brighter. Whether you’re daydreaming, dancing in your living room, or simply playing, remember: the inner child never really leaves – they’re just waiting for you to have a little fun

    Embracing the inner child on Children’s Day

    Children’s Day is here, and there’s no better time to take a trip down memory lane – starting with our favorite celebrities’ baby photos. While we usually see these stars in the spotlight, juggling their careers and lives in the public eye, it’s fun to remember that they too were once wide-eyed children full of dreams. We often lose touch with our inner child as adults, bogged down by responsibilities, but a glimpse of these baby photos can remind us all to embrace that part of ourselves.

    Let’s start with a few adorable throwbacks. Who can forget that viral baby photo of Kendall Jenner in her tiny, frilly dress, grinning at the camera? Or Sheikha Mahra, as a curious toddler with bright eyes, long before he became the poised Princess? Seeing Alia Bhatt as a bubbly little girl with her infectious smile or Karen Wazen daydreaming with those big eyes, brings us right back to that innocence and wonder of childhood.

    9 famous celebrities with their lookalike children

    Life

    by Sarah Joseph
    1 hour ago

    From an uncanny resemblance to an undeniable touch of familiarity, the offsprings of these celebrities are a spitting image of their parents.
    So much so, some of them could even be twins. Hence, we take a look at celebrities who have inherited their looks from their mother’s including similar mannerisms.
    Emirates Woman has rounded up a list of A-listers and their lookalike kids, some of which you’ll have to do a double-take.
    Chrissy Teigen and Luna

    Luna, daughter of Chrissy Teigen and John Legend, is regularly seen with her A-list mum. Luna is regularly seen on her mother’s Instagram, from pool selfies to celebrating occasions, they look absolutely chic, every time they pose for the camera. The duo definitely stand out in the world of celebrities.
    Catherine Zeta-Jones and Carys Douglas

    When the actress shared a breathtaking snapshot of her daughter by the beach, fans were stunned to see the resplendent features of her little one.
    Reese Witherspoon and Ava Phillippe

    With a photo shared on the actresses’ Instagram page, her fans found it hard to believe the age difference and mother-daughter relationship. With this holiday-themed image breaking the internet, the duo almost look like twin sisters.
    Gwyneth Paltrow and Apple Martin

    The founder of Goop and her daughter have been seen on social media numerous times, with her little one also promoting the beauty brand’s new eCommerce line while she also embarks on a career of her own. From bonding during at-home workouts to lounging under the sun, the two get along really well while we can’t get over how alike they look.
    Elizabeth Hurley and Damian Hurley

    By inheriting his mother Elizabeth Hurley’s striking looks, Damien has followed in his mother’s footsteps starting a career in modelling and acting.  By taking after his mum, as shown in different campaigns, this model is also known for his long tresses and soft features.
    Cindy Crawford and Kaia Gerber

    While taking after her supermodel mother, Kaia Gerber and Cindy Crawford could easily be mistaken for sisters. Just like her mother, Gerber has gone on to make a name for herself in the fashion industry working with big brands including Versace, Marc Jacobs and Chanel.
    Zoë Kravitz and Lisa Bonet

    While turning heads as they walked the red carpet together to sweet snapshots shared on social media, Lisa Bonet and Zoë Kravitz share a striking resemblance, taking twinning to a whole other level.
    Yolanda and Bella Hadid

    With Yolanda passing down her Dutch genes to her famous daughters of the moment, there’s no doubt that Bella Hadid has received her mother’s strong features and grit when it comes to pursuing her dreams in the modelling industry.
    Kate Moss and Lila Grace

    With near-identical model looks inherited from her mother, Lila Grace quickly entered the industry by already becoming the face of Marc Jacobs Beauty at a very young age as she embraces her mother’s flawless features.
