There's something different about Egyptian actress Laila Elwi but her fans just can't put their fingers on!
She's looking more fabulous than usual, and dare we say, younger?
This is Laila in her younger years:
But what's the 54-year-old starlet's secret? Are her Greek genes (from her mamma) keeping her looking youthful, or is there more to the story?
In a recent interview with the actress, she admitted to have lost a lot of weight thanks to a strict diet and exercise regime.
Laila promised her fans that she's never been under the knife, nor has she done any procedures to shed off the pounds. She further denied using Photoshop to make her look skinnier in pictures.
The diva also said that good makeup plays a big factor in keeping her looking young and pretty.
Even after this convincing explanation, the interviewer teased the glowing actress by saying that "only being in love can make someone look this good."
She laughed off his comment and said "I hope I will be and I hope everyone else will be in love and happy," adding that she's in a really good place in her life right now that's reflecting on her outer appearance.
Does that mean that Laila will never resort to plastic surgery when she gets older? She said that when the time is right she might consider it.
