Celebrities When They Were Young - Photos Of Then and Now
"Celebrities Without Makeup!" "Celebrities Before They Were Famous!" "Celebrities, They're Just Like Us!" No matter what the headline was, anything that normalised celebrities splashed across the cover of magazines (when they were still a thing) had me seriously flipping pages back when I worked the check-out at a grocery store.
There was just something about seeing celebrities in normal situations that just kinda thrilled me. Below, you'll see a bunch of well known celebrities when they were young.
Before fame, before plastic surgery, before, well... money. It's pretty entertaining. I'm not going to say I ever wondered what Doctor Phil looked like as a young man, but I'm glad I know now.
