Does miley even count? That pic is from like, 2-3 years ago lol
[info]peela 4th-Mar-2009 04:08 am (UTC)
that's what I was thinking lol
[info]swagoutthawazoo 4th-Mar-2009 04:09 am (UTC)
ikr?
[info]jennafurrrr 4th-Mar-2009 04:10 am (UTC)
mte wtf
[info]flowrs4ophelia 4th-Mar-2009 04:12 am (UTC)
Yeah...There's not much difference between the two pics of Anna Paquin, either.
[info]piratesswoop 4th-Mar-2009 04:19 am (UTC)
yeah and the sad thing is that she actually was a child star, so idk why they're using a picture that looks recent
[info]jayel_05 4th-Mar-2009 04:33 am (UTC)
mte. She totally was a child star. I'm sure there are plenty of pics from when she was nominated for an oscar years ago.
[info]honey_bee_buzz 4th-Mar-2009 04:13 am (UTC)
that's what I'm saying!

Miley was in Big Fish in 2003, so at the age of 11... Hmm.

[info]chibi_pink 4th-Mar-2009 04:16 am (UTC)
I thought the same thing too.
[info]lushieaciid 4th-Mar-2009 04:16 am (UTC)
lol o god i thought that too
[info]enjoyyourbunny 4th-Mar-2009 04:18 am (UTC)
Seriously, she's not an adult.

LOL, seriously.
[info]gwennaelle 4th-Mar-2009 04:26 am (UTC)
Srsly. What, age 13 to age 16? Oooooh.
[info]tx5mym5 mte4th-Mar-2009 04:36 am (UTC)
and the same for Dakota Fanning. It's grown up when they can legally drink.
[info]seashellz 4th-Mar-2009 04:39 am (UTC)
thats what i was thinking.. shes still a child star!
[info]cherisheddreams 4th-Mar-2009 04:48 am (UTC)
i saw and was like are you serious?
she should not be on this list, and i'm a miley fan.
[info]misspinkkate 4th-Mar-2009 04:55 am (UTC)
She totally doesn't. Neither does Dakota. Once they started getting work as adults, then we'll talk.
[info]tribulation 4th-Mar-2009 04:57 am (UTC)
Seriously.
[info]ohhkathleen 4th-Mar-2009 04:59 am (UTC)
K, glad I wasn't the only one thinking that.

[info]buckshotwon 4th-Mar-2009 05:32 am (UTC)
LOL my thoughts exactly
[info]prfssr_chaos 4th-Mar-2009 05:37 am (UTC)
I was gonna say how those pictures look maybe 8 months apart.

[info]jillirific 4th-Mar-2009 10:23 am (UTC)
lol srsly, they'll be using that "after" picture when she's washed up, rehabbed 4x, performing in bars in tennessee and 30 years old.
[info]coffeenmorphine 4th-Mar-2009 08:06 pm (UTC)
ikr? Dakota counts more that miley even!
[info]stephsayss 4th-Mar-2009 08:51 pm (UTC)
exactly. when I think of actors who SUCCESSFULLY made the transition from child star to leading actors are Elizabeth Taylor, Natalie Wood, etc. It doesn't happen in 2-3 years. it takes a lot more than that.
[info]justxjess 4th-Mar-2009 10:48 pm (UTC)
she still IS a child! LAWL
[info]irene82 31st-Mar-2009 06:30 am (UTC)
I KNOW!
[info]nomoneyfun 4th-Mar-2009 04:08 am (UTC)
the fuck? miley cyrus is like 16. was that first pic taken a year ago?
[info]grande_latte 4th-Mar-2009 04:59 am (UTC)
mte. its like wtf? is miley there
[info]mindofthebeheld 4th-Mar-2009 05:28 am (UTC)
Dakota Fanning is 14. I personally don't think those two should be on the list.
[info]rediculouslyon 4th-Mar-2009 04:08 am (UTC)
i love ryan gosling.
[info]pandaklr 4th-Mar-2009 04:08 am (UTC)
i never found lohan cute.
[info]coolandpopular 4th-Mar-2009 04:09 am (UTC)
legendtina looked legendary as a child

Edited at 2009-03-04 04:10 am (UTC)
[info]grammaire 4th-Mar-2009 04:14 am (UTC)
Not really. She looks like every other child who survived the 1990s.
[info]coolandpopular 4th-Mar-2009 04:15 am (UTC)
maybe you don't have your glasses on~
[info]carriehunt 4th-Mar-2009 04:14 am (UTC)
you should call her christlegend instead
[info]bienenkiste legendtina? are you fycking serious with that shit4th-Mar-2009 04:19 am (UTC)

[info]greencancer 4th-Mar-2009 01:09 pm (UTC)

[info]choco_carebear 4th-Mar-2009 04:09 am (UTC)
lol, Dakota.
[info]choco_carebear 4th-Mar-2009 04:09 am (UTC)
BTW, not saying that cuz I don't like her - she's adorable. I just still think of her as a child star, haha.
[info]arial 4th-Mar-2009 04:14 am (UTC)
same
[info]whatiseenow 4th-Mar-2009 04:16 am (UTC)
that's exactly what i was thinking. same with miley.
[info]wesaucereyes 4th-Mar-2009 05:03 am (UTC)
pretty much.
[info]bizarrre 4th-Mar-2009 04:09 am (UTC)
My friend told me she stopped like Lindsay right after she made "Parent Trap." I'm like, you mean when she turned 9?
[info]ohyesdaddy 4th-Mar-2009 05:14 am (UTC)
What did Lindsay even do before Parent Trap? haha.
[info]happy_endings11 4th-Mar-2009 05:23 am (UTC)
Freaky Friday!
[info]this_repetition 4th-Mar-2009 07:24 am (UTC)
A soap opera that got canceled.
[info]xpoisonapplex 4th-Mar-2009 09:09 am (UTC)
I can remember her being on the soap opera Another World. My mom used to watch it all the time when I was a kid.
[info]wickedground 4th-Mar-2009 02:50 pm (UTC)
movie-vise, The Parent Trap was her first role. It is even said in the opening title of the movie.
[info]lolsohfacto 5th-Mar-2009 05:04 am (UTC)
Um

Eve's great, no matter where she goes.
Dress her up from her head to her toes

[info]ihatebibimbap 4th-Mar-2009 10:10 am (UTC)

[info]glas_smaragaide 4th-Mar-2009 09:49 pm (UTC)
lol...that atrocious British accent. Dear god...

sorry but the original was the best...even though I luv me some Dennis Quaid.

seriously, what did she do before Parent Trap? I don't remember her in anything.
[info]peela 4th-Mar-2009 04:09 am (UTC)
lulz to Justin and Ryan Gosling
[info]mondeverdes 4th-Mar-2009 04:09 am (UTC)
nice! i like how they chose some of the worst possible photos from their childhood.
[info]yourmomrecycles 4th-Mar-2009 08:08 am (UTC)
right?
as i was making my way down the list, i was like, "poor Christina Aguilera"

and then i like how most aren't even pictures from their childhood.
[info]i_was_a_camera 4th-Mar-2009 04:09 am (UTC)
lol @ Megan Fox being a 'child star'
[info]nomoneyfun 4th-Mar-2009 04:09 am (UTC)
also, i see megan fox has always looked...cheap
[info]shadyoutkast 4th-Mar-2009 04:12 am (UTC)
lol!

[info]roxi9 4th-Mar-2009 04:13 am (UTC)
LMAO
[info]plugmebaby 4th-Mar-2009 04:22 am (UTC)

[info]subeyda 4th-Mar-2009 04:37 am (UTC)
Yep.
[info]proxy 4th-Mar-2009 04:09 am (UTC)
Man, Young Hercules was the SHIT.

[info]hazyflights 4th-Mar-2009 04:13 am (UTC)
OMG YES. That and Breaker High. He can get a dozen oscars and I will still maintain that that was his best work.
[info]tamstoj 4th-Mar-2009 04:33 am (UTC)
iawtc! He'll always be Sean to me...
[info]alliemolloy 4th-Mar-2009 04:35 am (UTC)
I miss Breaker High!

Na na na na na hey hey, carry me away!
[info]hrhobo 4th-Mar-2009 06:19 am (UTC)
I miss Breaker High.
[info]_keng_ 4th-Mar-2009 03:17 pm (UTC)
Ohhhhh mannnnn Breaker High! I used to watch that everyday! I heart it so.
[info]earthfairy101 4th-Mar-2009 03:20 pm (UTC)
na na. na na na na hey hey! carry me away
[info]sparkfactory 4th-Mar-2009 04:14 am (UTC)
omg it was my favorite show as a kid. they used to have hercules/xena/young hercules all on in the same time block it was great
[info]honey_bee_buzz 4th-Mar-2009 04:15 am (UTC)
OMG I was totally in love with the Jason character, yum!
[info]dirtyknife 4th-Mar-2009 04:22 am (UTC)
OMG.
[info]awaywithpixie 4th-Mar-2009 04:49 am (UTC)
OMG, this actually made it to a dvd release? Sheesh!
[info]leggyslove 4th-Mar-2009 05:03 am (UTC)
I fucking love that show.
[info]mmepompadour 4th-Mar-2009 06:13 am (UTC)
Goddamn I love him.

I met him twice back in his Young Herc days. He hit on me at a Xena con, he was about 19ish. It was a year or two before his ~big break~ God I wish I'd gone with him.

This show is on Hulu. nom nom.
[info]eveluvden 4th-Mar-2009 07:07 am (UTC)
He was so hot as Young Hercules. I didn't know they had it on DVD.
[info]it_llbeyourname 4th-Mar-2009 05:03 pm (UTC)
omfg
[info]red_maven 4th-Mar-2009 07:34 pm (UTC)
GASP! Young Hercules is on DVD?!?! Must...Own....
[info]tsurah 4th-Mar-2009 11:46 pm (UTC)
I forgot he done that!
[info]hotcinnamonbuns 4th-Mar-2009 04:09 am (UTC)
I appreciate Justin Timberlake. He never had a huge drug/alcohol fueled shift from teenagedom to adulthood.
[info]shadyoutkast 4th-Mar-2009 04:12 am (UTC)
yeah but he's a giant asshole, though.
[info]plugmebaby 4th-Mar-2009 04:22 am (UTC)
how?
[info]ybfchic 4th-Mar-2009 04:50 am (UTC)
instead, he does drugs as an adult.
[info]mmepompadour 4th-Mar-2009 06:14 am (UTC)
Neither did Elijah, and he's not a douchebag.
[info]jillirific 4th-Mar-2009 10:29 am (UTC)
just because it wasn't public, didn't mean it didn't happen.

maybe i'm naive, or maybe no one else noticed (because no one else cared at the time) but i had no idea nick carter ever had a serious drug problem like he recently came out and claimed. i didn't know aj was an addict (and i don't think anyone else did) until he came out and went to rehab publically.

justin could very well be a coke fiend and we will never know unless he comes out with it/goes to rehab. i kind of assume all hollywood stars are hoovers though.
[info]ang_0 4th-Mar-2009 04:09 am (UTC)
omg Elijah looked so cute

and RIP Leo's hotness
[info]onepant 4th-Mar-2009 04:20 am (UTC)
lmao.
[info]chelsea2162 4th-Mar-2009 04:55 am (UTC)
in person he is a HOT BITCH
[info]x_xcmon 4th-Mar-2009 01:21 pm (UTC)
seriously! I had a mega crush on him when he guest starred in Growing Pains. mmm...! Just can't get into him anymore :[
[info]miami_vice_ 4th-Mar-2009 04:10 am (UTC)
Seriously, only a few of these people were really child stars.
