WTF Happened to RENEE ZELLWEGER!
Фильм және анимация
In our latest episode of WTF Happened To... we take a look at the career of the multi-talented actress Renee Zellweger, who won our hearts (and had us at hello) with Jerry Maguire, took the romcom genre by storm with the Bridget Jones Diary franchise, danced her way to the top with Chicago, brought the laughs with Jim Carrey in Me, Myself & Irene and took home the gold for her supporting role in Cold Mountain.
But then, Zellweger seemingly disappeared and was gone for years before re-emerging on the scene out of nowhere, prompting everyone to wonder what had happened to the shooting star. The answer may (or may not) surprise you, but we take a look at where she was and where she's going.
Now, Zellweger is back on the big (and small) screen with a starring role in Judy, playing the legendary actress Judy Garland and fronting the Netflix series What/If, showing that you can't keep a great actress down.

I have the same kind of eyes as her. I had always felt weird and different and because Renne Zellweger was beautiful, admired it gave me some self acceptance but I see why she felt she wanted to change given that one would feel different and she probably got a little bit of taunting as a child. ( lol we’re even more victims than red heads) Like Renee I got those eyes from a German father whose ancestry is on the Baltic coast. About 6% of Europeans have them. Genetic markers supposedly suggest that they come in via the Sammi people of Finland and Sweden from Inuit like races from around Siberia who migrated over the arctic circle in warmer times. If you’ve got them don’t worry about it. I’ve been to towns in Europe where most people are like this and it is very normalising. Once you’ve seen that you’re not a freak you don’t need it anymore. Be glad that you are more resistant to snow blindness.

Actually she changed her look very much when she showed up on that red carpet but than changed again somehow to look more like her old self. And she does. Honestly she looks good. Her body is smoking and in WHAT/IF she looks great. Renee is brilliant actress and we love her.

Archduke of Belgrade At that red carpet, she had fillers. She probably chose not to continue them after they dissolved and that’s why she looks like herself again. Her eyelids are different as well. Her kids were very hooded and that gets worse with age and effects your vision so that probably wasn’t cosmetic. But of course, she is still aging so they are becoming hooded again like before so she is looking more like her younger self in that area too.

@Jay Cee exactly - what made Rene unique was her hooded eyelids - gave her that sleepy cute look. The new eyes look like anyone from down the street - unmemorable. If someone changes their eyes (like at all) they don’t look like themselves. I think Mathew McConaughey has his eyes done too - they look older because it’s not what we’re used to seeing.

I would say, that more then half, much more.
She's mad talented. My favorite performance of hers was in Cold Mountain. I haven't seen Judy yet but am planning to. Pretending to be other people all the time and working in Hollyweird would take its toll on even the most grounded people but actors tend to be a bit nuts to start out with. Renee Zellweger is a fantastic actor and that's all I have to say about it.
I always loved her "cuteness" She is adorable. With her eyelid change, I miss seeing the smile in her eyes. That's what drew you in. ❤

Even with your snarky comments and somewhat over the top delivery, you made quite an honest and surprisingly affectionate tribute to Renee. I really appreciate that.
she looks more like her old self in the judy movie, besides that she looks great in judy.
If you had said she had been gone 16 years, I still would have had trouble believing it was the same person. But, she is a great actress and I hope she continues to perform.
Thank you so much for this one! She is one very special spirit and hope she can pace herself back into more amazing performances!
Thank you so much for sharing this here. I love it. And I love Renee all my life.
Maybe she changed her appearance so people would stop recognizing her and shouting "you had me at hello!"
She’s so good. I’m glad she’s back.
Thank you for making this and thank you for being nice. I really enjoy these short videoes and I _really_ allriciate the work that goes in to them. You must work hard. You go girl!
Well done! I wasn’t sure what to expect, but you presented this nicely and respectfully. Love her. ❤️
Then she had a huge comeback and won another Oscar this time for Best Actress for Judy!!!
She looks stunning. One of my favorite.🌹🌹🌹
What a respectful and complete review about such an amazing actress, I loved your video because of your approach. Thanks!
Thx 4 sharing! I also love Judy! Now I really need to see it.

Mr. Deej Jones .
Thanks for this. Renee is an extraordinary talent and I hope she never stays away for so long ever again. At the age of 50 she looks closer to a 50 year old than anyone else I can think of in Hollywood; hopefully she won't do anything else to that beautiful expressive face.
Renee has a special place in my heart...I hope that she continues to do well. XOXOXOXO
I like the original Renee. Her face showed her character, she was a natural beauty and that's what I loved about her!!! Renee can tell you off in a NY minute, and with that face, it still wouldn't make you mad, it only makes her more dear to you for her honesty!
She is just fine. Everyone has their ups and downs and she will win an award.
I love her so much! Thank you for your kind and thoughtful video!
She is very talented. We don't give her enough credit. Her performance in Judy was sublime, DESERVED that second Oscar.
She seems like a good person and she’s very talented
She is a great actress!!!! I think women celebrities have that pressure of unrealistic beauty . She went for it and found out she looked so much better natural. I hope she gets the Oscar this year 🤩
Renee is one of my favorite actresses ever! Super talented and beautiful person in and out. So happy she's back. Cant' wait for new projects!
thankyou for not talking about her plastic surgery- her change in look has nothing to do with celebrity status- after-all, its not like her face was the reason she was famous. ...if she came back looking like arnold Schwarzenegger it should not be the purpose of her celebrity status. ... your indepth view of her career was unmatched, inspite of you missing out on the 6 years of her life where she became another person completely - glossing over that point was gold and a sign of great journalism.
100% agree with the host, that 'Judy' is going to be _new_ Ms. Zellweger's "breakout role" and I, for one, couldn't be happier for her. I think her portrayal of 'Roxie Hart' in 'Chicago' is one of her finest performances and another role showcasing her vocals and stage presence is exactly what she needs! It's clear she truly _has_ reinvented herself, after all.
She’s just winning an Oscar in about 1 month
What a great video..Im such a fan of Renee Zellweger..Why does hollywood want to destroy the most talented? She is a remarkable talent and I'm so excited that she gets a chance to remind everyone of her greatness...She's fabulous on Netflix and Judy Garland will prove to the naysayers SHE'S BACK...best wishes and continued success.."SHE HAD ME AT HELLO"
Thank you for respecting her - no matter what. She's a Houston native and dang! Had no idea she had done so much. I ran into her In Santa Monica afew years ago. We took a photo together. Be good to others and you will soar Mr JO Blo.

Great film!! At first, I thought you were putting her down...then I realized you weren't! Renee is super-talented, & I'm glad that she took time off for herself. She did have some plastic surgery, but she is still ADORABLE, & is in better shape physically & mentally...so good for her, & I'm glad she's back!! (BTW, I hated the movie Nurse Betty. I LOVED Same Kind of Different As Me!!) Know what else I love about Renee? She's herself. Doesn't feel the need to have breast enhancements...and she looks great as she is!!
“Me, Myself, and Irene” is one my favorite movies of hers. That shot is hilarious 🤣
She’s a talented actress who has always been beautiful!
She looks amazing !!! Leave her alone ! She lost a lot of weight. She played The great Judy garland who starved her self. PEOPLE Theirs too much JUDGING, take a look at yourself. No ones perfect!!! Instead of writing Negative comments go help someone, serve soup in a soup kitchen.... You will look at people differently. You must remember tv only portrays women in a gorgeous light. It's not Realistic..we all have hidden problems. If she would of been smiling on this pic it would of portrayed her differently But instead they pick a bad pic...these people are so ugly to do this.
I knew you could never say one thing that would make me think bad of her. I still love her and can't wait to see _Judy._
I loved your beautiful heart as you talked about this beautiful star. Thank you for your refreshing lack of judgement!!!

She had a natural beautiful unique look. She doesn’t have that anymore with the plastic surgery. She wouldn’t have become a star if she looked the way she does now. I’m not saying she isn’t talented, but people will always compare her to how she looked since she was doing so well. Why tf did she get plastic surgery
