Actress Angelina Jolie’s recent appearances on the red carpet for her Maria Callas biopic have sparked widespread concern among fans.
The Hollywood longtimer is being called out for her noticeably slim frame and prominent veins.
While fans and critics alike have praised her portrayal of the legendary opera singer, the conversation about her talent has been overshadowed by growing worries about her health.
Social media has been full of comments, with users sharing extreme and unhealthy dieting methods inspired by Jolie’s appearance.
The Times of India stated: "One user reportedly asked how to achieve a ‘bulging vein’ look, while another suggested avoiding hydration and reducing body fat to make veins more visible."
“Others praised the appearance, calling it ‘sexy’ and ‘impressive,’” the outlet stated.
Jolie’s biopic, which debuted on Netflix on December 11, has been celebrated for her “stunning portrayal of Maria Callas,” with audiences applauding her ability to bring the opera legend’s life and struggles to the screen.
Despite this praise, her recent red-carpet appearances have triggered what outlets have called an “unsettling trend” of fans obsessing over her look.
“Concerns about her health have started stealing the spotlight,” one observer noted, as fans speculate whether the stress of her “messy divorce battle with Brad Pitt” is taking a toll.
This speculation is nothing new, as Jolie’s slim frame and visible veins “have often been a subject of public speculation,” with rumors suggesting stress-related health issues linked to her personal life.
Though Jolie appeared radiant on the red carpet, “observers noted that Jolie appeared frail and unwell at some events.”
