Starlight, played by Erin Moriarty as one of the crucial members of The Boys, underwent some physical changes, as depicted by her before-and-after pictures, garnering negative comments from the netizens.
The actress’s facial structure changed significantly, especially her nose, lips, and jawline, which was evident in the numerous Instagram posts.
Moreover, the tip of Erin’s nose appeared more refined, with a bump removed, hinting at a possible rhinoplasty. She also had a Botox procedure for her cheeks, lips, and forehead to smooth out her fine lines.

Soon, the comments started flooding in, as fans claimed she had ruined her natural beauty instead of enhancing it.
Her transformation was evident in The Boys series as Starlight appeared different from before and after the rumored surgery, which the actress denied with her full potential.
After receiving backlash for her changed look, Erin turned to her social media, sharing a post captioned, “We’re all subject to levels of bullying throughout our lives, but I am horrified, and I felt that I deserved to take a second to address these things.“

The hate didn’t stop even after Erin addressed it, as people created Reddit threads discussing her imperfections compared to her old self.
Previously, she had a rounder facial structure with an innocent look, which she enhanced later with a refined jawline, arched eyebrows, and fuller lips.
After the rumors of her plastic surgery escalated, Megan Kelly, an American journalist, chimed in on the conversation and added, “Now look at her, she’s got Kim Kardashian lips. She made her nose so skinny, it looks like a pencil now.“

Likewise, fans claimed they loved Starlight’s appearance before the unrecognizable surgery, a point later highlighted by a plastic surgeon from New York.
However, such transformations could be the result of natural aging, makeup, weight loss, and other factors, as Erin was only 23 when she was cast as Starlight in The Boys.
Now, at 30, Starlight looks different in the series but is grateful for all her supporters who stood by her when the bullying escalated out of control.
