Before-and-after images of two MAGA Republicans stunned the internet Friday, with some likening their transformations to "[James] Bond villains."
Mike Sington, a former senior executive at NBCUniversal, shared Daily Mail images on X on Friday with the caption: "The startling MAGAfication of Matt Gaetz and Kimberly Guilfoyle."
In the before photos (embedded below), a youthful-looking Rep. Gaetz (R-FL) has dimples, round cheekbones and flatter, less poofy hair. During his speech at the Republican National Convention on Wednesday, viewers were more concerned about his complexion than his words.
"Gaetz clearly forgot to set a Botox limit," one viewer wrote on X.

Guilfoyle, the 55-year-old fiancée of Donald Trump Jr. and former wife of Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom, also appears to sport a more youthful — and less surgically enhanced — look in her before photos. She, too, spoke at this year's convention to stump for former President Donald Trump.
The transformation left the internet bewildered and led to a mountain of mockery, with many suggesting the photographic evidence points to plastic surgery.

"The grotesque twins," wrote @KetCorrine.
"Honestly, they’ve both become Bond villains," chided @RecruitingGuy.
"More plastic there than I see at Tupperware parties," jabbed @kemppam.
"I think they both go to the same plastic surgeon," wrote @TheNicAbides.
"Matty starting to look like a cross between Joel Osteen and Tammy Faye Baker," said @ReebX1.
