They are revered for their good looks and superb sense of style almost more than their talent as entertainers. But what would the world’s most famous faces look like if they didn’t have the best make-up artists and stylists that money can buy?

Thanks to the handiwork of one artist called Danny Evans, we now know exactly what a number of stars including Rihanna, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston would look like if they were average Joes. In an age where quick-fix diets, personal chefs and Botox keep the beautiful looking radiant, New York artist Danny Evans has stripped them back to humdrum.

The full-time artist takes celebs and presents them as duller versions of themselves — maybe a little frumpier, heftier or a little plainer. He told the MailOnline: “Basically just stripping away their cool personas I always find it interesting to see what’s left after the Hollywood has been scrubbed off.

My intention wasn’t necessarily to age them, but to strip them of their ‘Hollywood’ facade. That has more or less been my general goal with this series all along.”
