The star of the top-rated Turkish TV series "The Magnificent Century" Meryem Uzerli posted her photo from the 90s.
The actress of mixed German-Turkish origin became famous after starring in the TV series "The Magnificent Century", where she played Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska, the beloved wife of Sultan Suleiman, known in Europe as Roksolana.
The creators of the series believed that Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska, a Slav by origin, who got into a harem at the age of 15-16, should look like a red-haired, blue-eyed beauty with curvaceous forms. This is exactly what Meryem appeared in front of the viewers, quickly conquering their hearts, although at the time of filming she was 27 years old.
However, an archival photograph published on the actress's personal instagram shows that at the age of 16, Meryem looked completely different. Dark-haired, thin, with bangs and pearl lipstick - nothing to do with the usual serial image.
Fans were surprised at this transformation and even compared her to Britney Spears. However, now the actress has once again changed her image - now she is a blonde with noticeably enlarged lips, although they have always been quite plump.
