根本差不遠,但beautiful是一種普通的說法,意思跟「漂亮」一樣。但是gorgeous 不常用的,所以,假如說gorgeous的話,就表示「非常漂亮」的意思。 (你們應該有很多說法,可能「華麗」,「絢麗」,「優美」等)
If you call someone 'beautiful' it just means they are pretty, if you say they are 'gorgeous' it means they are extremely pretty, it's much stronger. Usually used for women, but occasionally may be used for a very attractive looking man.
Could also be used to describe nature - "The mountains are gorgeous, aren't they?"

They both mean the same. "Gorgeous" is usually the stronger of the two. HOWEVER, it comes from the inflection in your voice:
SHE was gorgeous. She was GORGEOUS.
**You don't call men gorgeous or beautiful.

Gorgeous = Stronger version of Beautiful.
Also while beautiful is something has beauty but may not necessarily demand too much attention , gorgeous has a sense of being immensely attractive that causes a lot of attention to go to it.

No difference really. They are synonyms.
