4. Joaquin Phoenix – Scarred Lip

There has been much skepticism about Joaquin Phoenix’s upper lip, as it appears as though he may have had a cleft palate. Some say that the scar is from cleft palate surgery and others say that it is simply a birth mark that he’s had his entire life. Whatever it may be, it is noticeable enough to get people to talk. Here again, this minor “defect” does not take away from Joaquin’s charm, nor has it affected his brilliant acting career. His breakthrough role in Her received a lot of attention and he has been working on several other films since.
