Los Angeles: In a moment that is being widely discussed across the entertainment industry, Hollywood veteran Demi Moore has been named People Magazine’s Most Beautiful Woman of 2025. At 62, Moore has edged past global celebrities including Jennifer Lopez, Julia Roberts, Beyoncé, and Angelina Jolie for the prestigious title.
The announcement was made in People magazine’s May issue, where Moore appears on the cover in a striking yet understated portrait. The recognition places her among the oldest celebrities to receive the honor, drawing attention not only to her appearance but also to evolving conversations around beauty, age, and self-acceptance.
Speaking candidly in the magazine, Moore reflected on her long and often public struggle with body image. She acknowledged that self-doubt has not completely disappeared with age, but her relationship with herself has changed. “I still have moments where I look in the mirror and think, ‘I look old,’ or ‘Things are changing,’” she said. “But I don’t let those thoughts define who I am anymore.”
The response to Moore’s selection has been swift and largely positive, with fans and industry figures praising the decision as a refreshing shift away from narrow beauty ideals. Many have described the moment as symbolic, highlighting confidence, resilience, and lived experience over conventional standards.
Moore’s renewed presence in the spotlight follows a successful comeback driven by her performance in The Substance, a critically acclaimed film that earned her an Academy Award nomination and a Golden Globe win. In recent interviews, she has spoken about listening to her body and prioritizing health over external validation. “I trust it now. I take care of it instead of fighting it,” she shared.
Born in 1962, Demi Moore began her career as a model before rising to international fame with films such as Ghost, A Few Good Men, and Indecent Proposal. By the mid-1990s, she had become the highest-paid actress in Hollywood following the release of Striptease, cementing her place as one of the era’s defining stars.
Nearly four decades after her breakthrough, Moore’s latest recognition reflects a career that continues to evolve — one shaped by reinvention, longevity, and a growing cultural shift in how beauty is perceived.
