In addition to Moore’s acting career, she became a beauty icon. She famously pioneered the trend of nude maternity photoshoots with her 1991 Vanity Fair cover, shot by Annie Leibovitz.

Among these comments is from a post of Moore’s appearance at a 2023 Brunello Cucinelli brand event. “How does Demi Look even better than she did 10 years ago. [sic] Gorgeous,” an onlooker exclaimed. Another occasion where Moore’s ageless charm was on full display was during an outdoor river trip, where she sported a black bikini.
Fans expressed astonishment with comments like, “Demi looks 20″ and “How do you look so good???? I swear you’re Benjamin Button.” Others simply stated, “Never ages” and playfully inquired, “Who’s the 25 years old girl on the first picture [sic]?”

Her stunning appearance in a sparkling silver dress at the CFDA Awards also left fans in awe. One admirer hoped to emulate her agelessness, writing, “I hope I age like you!”
However, despite the overwhelming praise, fans believe one particular detail betrays Moore’s real age. At a February event hosted by Carolina Herrera, where Moore dazzled in a plaid red, black, and white dress, certain onlookers pointed out that her knees seemed to show her age.
Comments such as “Face 48 legs 65” and “Her knees are old” highlighted this observation. Curiosity and concern were evident as another remarked, “Oh my why her [sic] knee is all wrinkled?” One person even suggested, “It is better to cover up old knees.”
Another onlooker elaborated on the inevitability of aging. The person stated, “It’s obvious, that she spends a lot of money on her face but there are still areas of our body where the age will [be] obvious.“
There were eight times when Moore’s knees caught the public’s attention. Some of them feature the actress in short skirts or dresses during special events, while others were photographed candidly

Clarifying these rumors, she revealed she had something done but not on her face. She expressed a wish for less public fascination with her appearance, whether the opinions were positive or negative.

She said, “Not being defined by a number and instead being defined by my experience.” She reflected on the freedom and liberation she felt, contrasting her vivacity with the resigned demeanor she recalled in her grandmother at the same age.
