Raw footage never lies.

When China TV aired the unedited interview, the entire entertainment industry was shaken. Known as the "truth mirror," this network never provides celebrities with any filters or special treatment.

The camera revealed Nicole Capra's carefully crafted makeup for what it truly was. Her dull complexion and dark circles were a far cry from her usual glamorous image.

But Susan Thompson was breathtakingly beautiful.

In close-up shots, she appeared completely natural. Her translucent skin and limpid eyes could captivate millions with just a faint smile. Such peerless beauty could only be matched by Catherine Capra and Bella Lucas in the entire industry.

Netizens went wild.
