Jacob Elordi’s Beard, MGK’s Tattoo & More Stars’ 2024 Transformations

In the world of weight loss journeys and personal transformations, it seems like every week brings a new story of triumph and resilience. However, among these tales, some stand out due to the sheer magnitude of change and the inspiring backstory that accompanies them. One such person is Kathy Bates, a Hollywood veteran who has proven time and again that age is but a number when it comes to achieving one’s goals.

When Jan. 1 rolls around, many will tout the phrase, “New year, new me.”

But there are plenty of stars who already decided to make some changes in 2024.

These changes might not have been significant transformations, but they certainly created quite a stir. For example, take Jacob Elordi’s new beard or the one Prince William grew last summer. However, it should be noted that the Prince of Wales himself mentioned not everyone in the royal family approves of his fresh look.

William, who is father to Princess Charlotte, Prince George, and Prince Louis with wife Kate Middleton, expressed this during his visit to Cape Town, South Africa on Nov. 7, as reported by People. He said, ‘Charlotte didn’t like it the first time I tried it.’ He further added, ‘I cried for the first time I tried it, so I had to shave it off.’

Still, he noted he wasn’t going to bow down to the 9-year-old’s request.

William allegedly added, “I managed to regrow it, you know. For a moment, I hesitated, but then I reassured her everything would turn out alright.

Other famous personalities underwent various hair style changes instead. For example, Khloe Kardashian went from blonde to brunette, while Austin Butler opted for a bald look, and Zendaya made a bold statement by sporting fringe on the red carpet at Paris Fashion Week.

Some artists are eager to embark on a fitness transformation, similar to “Jelly Roll”, who has publicly discussed shedding over 100 pounds and his aspirations for the future. Specifically, the “Son of a Sinner” singer expressed his desire to grace the cover of “Men’s Health” by March 2026 during an episode of his wife Bunnie XO’s podcast “Dumb Blonde”. He stated, “That’s my new goal. I want to have one of the most remarkable transformations.

“I think I was so determined to lose weight that I lost sight of myself,” Tammy explained in the Instagram video. “I lost who I was, and I turned to alcohol instead of food. At the same time, I was still eating. So, I was damaging myself in two different ways. It would be all too easy to slip back into old habits and regain all the weight, [but then] what was this all for? A waste of time, a waste of money, a waste of effort.”

She also mentioned, “It’s not about dieting, but rather a shift in lifestyle, and I encourage others who are on a similar journey.
