Anna Faris, 49, has once again drawn attention from fans concerned about her well-being following her appearance at the "Spa Day" premiere in Las Vegas on Saturday night. The actress's demeanor during a red carpet interview with E! News has ignited a discussion on social media, with some users questioning if she is alright.
Concerns were amplified by observations that her eyes appeared red and "bloodshot." "What is up with her demeanor? Something's not right," one social media user commented on a clip of the interview. Another noted, "I haven't seen her do an interview in forever where she appears not intoxicated."
This is not the first time Faris has sparked such reactions. In early June, a video of her at the Los Angeles premiere of "Scary Movie 6" went viral, leading to similar expressions of concern online. Users on X voiced worries about her health, with one writing, "Love her, but really worried about her health here. I hope she's ok."
During the recent interview, Faris, who shares son Jack, nearly 14, with ex-husband Chris Pratt, spoke about motherhood. She admitted to sometimes questioning her abilities as a parent, stating, "I'm an older mom," and "I hope I'm doing ok. I didn't always feel like I fit in with the parents of [Jack's] friends. I always felt like I was kind of messing up somehow."
However, many social media users came to Faris's defense, interpreting her appearance and comments in a different light. Some suggested that her red eyes might be due to tiredness, a celebratory drink, or the general buzz of a premiere event. They also defended her speech, stating that her words came across "crystal clear."
Others praised the actress for embracing a natural approach to aging, rejecting the perceived pressure of modern beauty standards. "I think the new age ‘beauty standards’ have been forced upon us, so heavily, that when we see a woman aging naturally we jump to concern and worry..." one user wrote. Another commented, "One Instagram user gushed that she looked 'beautiful' as she ages 'without Botox, filler, and plastic surgery.'" Supporters lauded her "100% natural, 0% Botox" appearance and her "aging naturally."
Faris has been married to cinematographer Michael Barrett since 2021. She and Pratt finalized their divorce in 2018, a year after their separation.
