She's 21? All of the surgery ages younger girls - I'm so used to ladies in their late 30"s and 40's looking like her from the surgery. It's very scary that people don't want to be young and fresh faced anymore. Wish I could just give her a hug myself!
I think she smokes - the voice and sagging skin gives it away
I didn’t care for the title of the show, beauty and the beast. However it was well made and glad to see they became good friends
Soooo.. are we really going to ignore the fact that the show is called "Beauty & THE BEAST" ????! wtf
Which is the beauty and Which is the beast? May differ from what you think. But i agree terrible choice.
It should be beauty or beast if anything. It points the person with differences as “the beast” 😖
Absolutely agree. It's an awful name, either way around. Somebody thought that this was a witty, clever, play on words. That's where we are at.
Felt the same way too! Very disrespectful and just purely hurtful title!!!
But the film shows you the real beast. You subconsciously labeled someone a beast. She is not the beast. 🙏
It's horrible to call it beaty and the beast. Both girls are wonderful.
it's not literally .The beast represents prejudice and biases in society beauty represents authenticity and acceptance
I actually cried watching this. These two girls are SO beautiful and I hope their friendship lasts - I think they are good for each other!
Both Nelly and Hollie are beautiful, sweet, bubbly, intelligent and driven. I hope both ladies are happy and continued to live thier lives to the fullest 🕊️💎⭐
P.S. I also admire how both of them speak thier minds but without being cutting/snide/judgemental towards each other.
I felt the same way, I cried, both are beautiful young women. Holly straight away accepted Nelly. That showed real empathy, she’s not just a pretty face. Nelly’s confidence really makes me look at myself and how I try to hide my imperfections and being self conscious. I learned a lot. ♥️
I wasn't aware there were adult sufferers of harlequin ichthyosis. Staying alive takes a good part of her life, bless her for her cheery outlook.
These two have a beautiful friendship. I would love a follow-up.
Two beautiful souls who exemplify the real thing - inner beauty.
What a beautiful comment ❤
Holly is a lovely person inside and out. I hope she does well in her life. Nellie is as well, difference is it's own form of beauty as well.
I love how much they got along
Hearing Holly’s father, I can see why her father supports her cosmetic procedures.What ever it takes to make her feel beautiful, and not starve herself. They both have in common, that how they physically care for themselves, is what keeps them going.
I feel sorry for Holly she hasn’t accepted herself or her body and she is seeking validation from the outside, her dad works in an image based industry and this has had a huge influence on her self value. Nellie has had to grow up in an image obsessed society that judge her on appearance she has been able develop her personality rather than her body. The crux is Holly accepts being a cookie cutter glamour model and Nellie has to be one in a million 💎
I know this program is extremely old now because I remember watching it every week on Channel 4 but the way the world has since gone with social media and reality TV people being OBSESSED with how they and other people look is probably even WORSE in 2022 sadly.
I really like both these women. It’s great that they became friends. Really good people.
I thought Nelly was younger than holly! Nelly has such youthful energy even her voice.
nelly is so cute
I LOVE that Nelly has her nose and Monroe pierced! As someone who loves piercings and has 13 of her own I want to know if it took her longer to heal or anything because of her EB.
I feel like these people shamed Holly repeatedly about her decisions and looks. I feel bad for her. There's nothing wrong with being in the adult industry. As long as you are safe and happy then why not? That being said, I do think it's important to know why you're doing it and who you are, but that's true for everyone.
Honestly holly is so so sweet.
the biggest issue here is that nelly is trying to tell holly what she should and shouldnt do with her body or life. thats never ok no matter your condition. dont tell people what to do with their bodies.
Love this, such a beautiful and emotionally impactful video...
I HATE TO MY CORE how at the start of the film this is called beauty and the beast !!!
Me too!!! When I saw that is was like wtf?!
@@Moonlight_Sun01 Nellie is t a beast she is beautiful I absolutely adore her!!
@@janetlynn9346 Yes she is and she’s such an inspiration and strong woman
This video is so well needed.
Very touching programme. ❤I wish both ladies the best in life x
Holly is blessed with a lovely spirit and beautiful face...she is open to people and experiences...she is a gift to everyone she meets
I’m so happy that Nelly was able to inspire Holly to see the bigger picture of who she is and more. Well done both of you! ❤
Nellie is SO PRETTY! Her mouth is gorgeous… ❤ both girls are lovely. It’s a shame Holly doesn’t see how beautiful she is
Aww Holly is so lovely, bless her and so is Nelly
Holly looks 32, not 21 hahaha
Yeah, that’s what Botox does to young girls - it ages them prematurely.
Terrible name of the show because of what it could imply but in my opinion they are both such lovely people. They are the Beauty. The industry is the Beast.
What a beautiful relationship!
These documentaries were filmed years ago, I'd love to know an update
These girls need their own show. They’re wonderful together
Holly looks so much better with no makeup, she doesn't need any.. hope she go's natrual...
Both of them are very beautiful ladies I both like their confidence
I've always found that those who grew up only depending on their looks, never grew spiritually & mentally.
Holly looks like she is in her 30’s rather than 21. The ironic thing about getting plastic surgery at a young age is it ages you… not that anything is wrong with aging but most wouldn’t want to speed up the process! She does seem like a sweet enough woman though. With the trend of all these “instagram filter” looks, I would hope that with time, the world comes to appreciate natural beauty again.
43:45. Wow she actually really seemed happy to be a dancer but I think she finally got it that she was masking pain it worked but it was slowly depressing her even more
Both girls are amazing. Holly being used by the industry at such an early age and totally unaware what is going on??? Nelly is so smart and pure hearted....just love them both. Both innocent in different worlds😊
Should have been called the beauty and the gorgeous🤗
I thought the title was disheartening!
@@Moonlight_Sun01 I did too
They are both great
Shes very beautiful
Two sweeties ❤❤ what a lovely show! God is very good..
thanks for share this perspective 🙏🏼
I’m happy holly didn’t take Holly’s judgment so personally.
Yay, Nelly! You have a brilliant attitude and you are a most lovely person. God bless.
I love holly and Nelly. What sweet girls bless em❤
The young black man already looks perfect.
People saying they feel sorry for Holly 🤦🏻♀️ Girl making her own money and living her life! Like she said even *after* the attempted ‘intervention’ or whatever it was, “I stilI love what I do.” I personally felt bad for Nellie. She’s likely to be stuck with her family - who I don’t doubt are lovely - all her life and will never know some of the…let’s say *fun* things.
The fact that she’d never spent a night away from home except on the school trips is so so sad. She never stayed at friends’ houses? And her reaction to the club 😂 I can’t help but want to coddle her and I think that’s what the crux of the matter is: everyone sees her as innocent and I think her projecting her feelings onto Holly are because she simply wants to be like everyone else 😔
I think the name of this series is soo horrible.. The Beauty and the beast.. My god, nelly is no beast!!
Be your own norm, the way I see it ye.
Imagine you invented a look right or a patent for something then this corporation ( Aka society ) comes along and tricks you to selling it off for dirt cheap and the now own everything.
This is the McDonald’s movie in a nutshell smh things people do for image
WOW
I enjoyed the episode but the NAME of this show...🧐
Who decided to call this The Beauty and The Beast?
I find that awful, prejudiced and cruel.
It reflects no sensitivity.
It's why we have young girls filling this skin with injections instead of there minds.
A body will change, our minds must be enriched to give our women professions that pay well and will be there for them for decades, not a few years.
Holly has a fleeting career. It's sad.
Why not choose naturally good looking people for the show? I lost interest realising that they are fake, anyone can pay to have all that stuff done.
That's the point of the show. To show that people don't need cosmetic surgery
Seems a bit gross referring to them as beauty and the beast 😮
Is that a serious?
"If i had the money id look like Michael Jackson" girl..... really?
How can you name it beauty and the beast 😢
this is what happens when you have kids with your first cousin, i have two members in my extended family with the same condition.
The fact they had 4 children with this condition. At no point did they think to stop
@@LadyCheshire95 I don't understand why they didn't realize that maybe they should try something else.
Oooo my the toxic avenger lives
You look like you smoke meth for a living.
🤮
Everywhere in Europe sounds like a fairytale! Honestly is there anything awful about living over there?!
Fairytale? It's a war in Ukraine.
I mean there is the war between Russia and Ukraine
@@olivia6063 that’s totally fair! Not being over there and it dying out on the news I have had the privilege to not think about that everyday! I imagine a lot of Europe is going about their everyday lives.
Holly, unfortunately, is just another vain person that doesn't love herself. If she truly loved herself, she wouldn't get those procedures done.
Our lord and saviour Leslie has spoken.
But seriously how is stating this going to help anyone? She is clearly working on it. How about use encouragement rather than rudeness and pointed words. Idk. You don't look as tall as you think from your high horse love.
I see a young woman who has battled with an eating disorder and has self image issues. When she was talking to the photographer, she was pointing out what she saw as imperfections. That’s not someone who is vain.
I’m happy that you have never experienced BDD or extreme body insecurity, but many girls do, we want to love ourselves. It’s not so easy 😢
Holly is like a lot of young girls. The beauty industry affects girls by telling them they need to look a certain way. It’s what ever is popular at the time. There is nothing wrong with wanting to look your best. Having had an eating disorder shows how deeply she was affected. One botched surgery could destroy her when your hyper focused on any perceived imperfection. I hope she finds a balance with in herself and learns to love herself the way she is.
I hope Nelly continues to travel and doesn’t let her skin condition stop her from living her life to the fullest.
I agree and both of them have such a nice personality
its not. a healthy look is attractive, which is a defined face, visible jawline, proportional shape.
These two are so precious and sweet. I loved this episode, thank you.
This video was awesome because it just highlights so many areas surrounding Beauty, glamour and the industry but actually it was so nice because there was mutual respect from Holly and Nelly. I think the glamour industry could be more inclusive to those people with disabilities, impairments or medical conditions, representation is very low. As a totally blind person I tried to get into the industry to show that blindness doesn't define me as a person and to have the representation there but sadly was turned down so many times. Thanks Holly and Nelly for sharing your journey and for allowing us to follow your lives. I found it really interesting. Siobhan and Guide Dog Marty. Xox
I think the big moment was when Holly realized she has been doing this since she was 17, it's what she was exposed to at 17 and went with it and never really tought about it. Coming from an eating disorder which can often be about control, and then starting this at a young age, she has never really given the thought to who she really is and what she may really want. Those were formative years all given to that business, so it may be difficult to look inward and find out who she genuinely is.
Great comment!!!
It's the beauty industry, modeling, cosmetics, fashion, that sets the standard for all. If we just didn't buy into their idea of what THEY think beauty is, we'd all be more accepting of other peoples' appearances. And we wouldn't be wasting money on trying to make ourselves perfect.
Or if they were more inclusive and open to all, people in society would feel they are represented. I agree with this, definitely. Smile. X
@@BlindGirlVlogs
Yes, inclusion is so, so important to everyone! 💙
Truth!
@@lovingmayberry307 it really is. Definitely agree with you there. Everyone deserves to be respected in all walks of life. after all we are all human. We all unique and we all bring different perspectives to things to. That's why I'm so passionate about equality and inclusion in everything. Better representation in media for sure.
Let's just imagine you wake up one day and you clearly know -fashion is the last thing in the world you can think about. I live in a country with horrible war, believe me half a year I thought about fashion too, but now ...there are so many other things which bother me.
I'm grateful Holly was able to gain internal peace but I'd rly love to see her use her income rn toward her future via college and a career that will support her when she's older. The beauty industry is brutal. It chews women to shreds then spits them out for the next young girl. I'd like to see her have a solid foundation to fall back on AND know she's not going to fall in to deep depression due to natural aging. She's clearly intelligent and can have a full, happy life but she needs to plan now. Thank goodness lil Nelly showed her there's so much more to her than her appearance. ❤️
Holly was more open and accepting it seems. She's an adult capable of making her own decisions. She's aware of the dangers and flaws in the industry.
She is vain. She needs to learn how to love herself. She doesn't love herself.
She is isn't she. I thought she is an amazing person. Both girls are really.
Decisions or dysmorphia ?
The fact that you refer to them as beasts is out right disrespectful and demoralizing. Only human you should really look at how this effects others.!
Thanks for highlighting these lovely ladies and informing people about rare genetic conditions. I have a rare genetic condition and they are under-researched, underfunded and poorly understood.
This is a great video. At 27 Nelly is a complete miracle. Holly is beautiful inside and out. I’m glad they were brought together & gave each other strength. They’re both a joy to watch.
Shes nearly 40 now. This video was made back in 2012
It breaks my heart that nothing can be done for Nellie’s skin.
Holly's lip's look botched. She would look so much better without all the facial filler's. She has beautiful green eye's! She's a naturally pretty girl so it's a shame that she feel's the need to change how she look's but i guess everyone's defintion of beautiful is different from one person to the next right?
When they showed Holly with no makeup in the morning, she truly looked beautiful! Especially without the eyelashes and heavy foundation! I wish both women lots of self love and blessings ❤
Nellie -you are an absolutely refreshing person- with your positive energy and relentless spirit ! Wow !!!! You have changed my personal insights on so many of these issues you brought into the light with this doco. Holly - You are an absolute doll ! It’s nice to see that you were willing to accept this caring and loving ladies advice about your future . Ever how you choose to take it . You two ladies have made an awesome connection that will always be something to be treasured :)! ❤️ from Nashville TN 🇺🇸
yes, Holly may exaggerate about certain things. especially when it comes to botox and breast surgery ect Holly really doesn't need that at the age of 21. Nonetheless. Holly has a lot more empathy than Nelly Holly is so open, friendly and you can tell she can empathize with others she is so helpful to nelly and never judges her for a second when it comes to empathy, Nelly can learn a lot from Holly. I've been working with people for a long time, who have a handicap of some kind. I noticed that unfortunately a lot of people who have a handicap are not very empathetic and open towards others. It seems to have something to do with the fact that more and more attention has been drawn to her since birth , because of her handicap. be it in the family, where the handicapped child gets more and more attention. be it that the siblings always stand behind the sibling with a handicap, they automatically learn to be considerate of their sister/brother with a handicap. On the other hand, the child with the handicap often does not automatically learn to be considerate. on the one hand logical, because such a child is always the focus of attention. Unfortunately, this often leads to such children being less empathetic in adult life, less open to other people's problems. Because there are handicaps that are not obviously visible. Nevertheless, they are no less dependent on help than a person whose handicap is immediately obvious. Not all people with a handicap have a lack of empathy. But unfortunately you can see a lot of it. This example shows very nicely that Holly is much more open and empathetic, Like Nelly.
Here we have ob iosly two people with a handicap. Nellys is very visible and Hollys are not......
I worked with diasbled and handicapped people. They can be extremely selfish. Their whole lives they get every ones attention which makes them spoilt and they can be quite bitter and jealous of other people that don't have disabilities.
@@melbromley929 yes, I can unfortunately confirm that too.
Nelly is such an inspiration to us all! And I hope Holly finds the beauty within herself and continues to evolve. Their friendship is lovely. 💕🌱
We just don't cherish our normal appearance.we used to say I am not good enough, I am not beautiful enough, but looking at those people I think we should start love and cherish ourselves.
21? Geez I'm 35 she looks my age. She seems to have a good heart and I totally get where the dad was coming from. As a parent you'd rather see them this way than in a coffin. I just wish she never had such a dark image of herself as a whole that lead her to this. Hurts to watch her hurt so much inside, constantly chasing something that boosts her self esteem.
Holly looks old for her age
Ironic that she probably made herself older. I would have guessed 24
Nelly is so cool. She's truly concerned like a mother figure
WOW, this was very informative! Both of the young ladies has such sweet spirits! I'm happy they had an opportunity to take a look inside each other's world. Prayerfully Holly has planted a seed in the mind of her new friend, concerning natural beauty stemming from the inside!🙌🏾 It is so true, one must get down to the root of the problem! Also to love self, and not take on things that are not really helping to solve the issues. Thanks 4 sharing such a Deep & Profound video!❤
It’s not a good argument to tell someone to stop getting Botox because they don’t “need it” because they don’t have lines, but the point is that it’s preventative to stop wrinkles forming, not take them away once they’re already there.
Botox isn’t preventive. That’s a lie to get money from stupid people. Chemical peels are preventive. I’m 41 years old and I have no wrinkles on my face.
🤩 Wow this was eye-opening! 🙏🏾
OMG Holly is 21?I thougt shebis in her 30ties.I don't wan 't to watch all of it cause it makes me ill how dump some women are-butbok i know the buisness and it can destroy you inside&out.They are both sweet womens and Nelly shines soo bride i like her really much.
These ppl just look awesome in my opinion
No they do like they would make some killer friends
I always go by personality, I'm totally blind so seeing someone is obviously not an option for me which I think has made me a much more understanding and non-judging human. I take people for who they are, and even if I wasn't blind, I feel the same way. To be honest the media have a lot to answer to because young girls aspire to be like the glamour models portrayed all over magazines, online, on television, in books, it's everywhere and this glimpse and video really highlights that beauty is not everything. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
@@BlindGirlVlogs that's a good mindset , keep rockin and rolling with that , we need more ppl like you
@@BlindGirlVlogs what a beautiful mindset ❤
@@mikeadams9374 thank you so much. I don't think I did reply to this message so many apologies.
I didn't get a notification. I think it's important to remember that we are all human and whatever the definition of beauty is, in my opinion, it really is in the eye of the beholder, because Beauty is so different to each person. Everyone has something to offer this world, regardless of the way they look or what they wear or how they have their hair, that's irrelevant, it's about the person inside.
Why is it necessary to embarrass those who use plastic surgery to "tweak" their looks? They're not responsible for someone else's disfigurement.
Good story and message
Yes I think so too. :-). Important to talk about these topics and raise awareness. x
Nellie has a beautiful smile!
This two girls are awesome, like they are so nice and loving
Best wishes to both ladies 💘☀️🥰
Is it a glamour career?
I was impressed that Holly wasn't scared, but felt compassion, and was very open asking Nellie about her condition. Beautiful that they are both so open sharing about their lives, both are negatively judgedmany times.
I never understood why people are afraid of people who look different.
We've actually seen that the scariest people were people who were considered good looking or like ordinary people. Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, etc.
A very touching story.Beautiful.
Nelly is such a beautiful and good human being💗💗💗 sending all my love to you Girl. and also Holly 💗💗💗
I miss being in my 20's and saying things that I could get in trouble for nowadays.
Wtf you sound wrong
🙄🙄🙄
I really enjoyed watching this epsiode. Both are very lovely women, with good hearts.
Nelly is just so amazing❤
Holly is not even cute
