While her newest post garnered overflowing admiration from the public, her flawless reputation took a hit last month. The "Grown Ups" star faced criticism when her glamorous photoshoot sparked debates on her beauty ideals.

Amidst the breathtaking backdrop of the picturesque scenery of the French Riviera, the "From Dusk Till Dawn" actress exuded elegance as she posed on a balcony with a glass railing. As she struck sultry poses, she teasingly lowered the garment to reveal her bare shoulder in one of the images, hinting at her nudity underneath.

The "Wild Wild West" actress's distinctive facial transformation was a notable theme throughout the post, appearing remarkably younger with her impeccably done makeup. Despite amassing over 1,000,000 likes, fans expressed disappointment, claiming she no longer resembled her former self.
