Idk if you consider this fake or not, but there's considerably more plastic surgery, Botox, veneers, teeth bleaching, and appearance oriented behaviors these days. Especially in movies, but also in real life. There's not a single actor with natural teeth now, except for Steve Buschimi. Even he probably bleaches his teeth. You used to see people everywhere as they were naturally. Now it's very common to see people who have had cosmetic procedures done. There's also a lot more bodybuilding and body sculpting now. That one is possibly a positive, since it contributes to a person's overall health. Go watch a movie from the 70's. The actors look like real people. Now every actor looks like digitally sculpted perfection.
