Believe it or not, Hollywood stars were once kids too! Some say that in their eyes, celebrities sometimes get stuck at the age they get famous. There are some celebs who we get to see on the screen even before their teen years, however, some don’t really come into the picture until their 30s or 40s. In these cases, it’s sometimes hard to imagine our beloved actors or singers as children.

Have you ever stopped to think about what little Beyoncé or Drake looked like? In this list, you’ll find 56 pictures celebrities have shared of themselves when they were kids, teenagers, or even toddlers.

If you’re still curious to see more little celebs, check out thisthis, and this article Bored Panda has posted before.

“Just gonna leave this Christmas throwback right here for everyone around the world’s enjoyment… 4 yrs old. Teeth bucked and discolored. Rocking a perm,” wrote Dwayne Johnson on his Instagram account when posting a throwback picture. “And for the record, EVERYONE thought I was a little girl growing up. And clearly even at a very young age, I always had 'a way' with all the girls - mainly because they thought I was one. And thanks for the awesome haircut, mom.”

This was before the fight over a girl, that resulted in his anisocoria.... that gave him the famous eyes we all know so well.

But, he was supposed to have heterochromia, wasn't he?

No, due to an injury (in a fight over a girl) he damaged his eye so the pupil was permanently dilated. The eye _seemed_ much darker than the other, but the irises had the same colour.

I heard his last name was really Jones, but he changed because he was afraid he'd be mistaken for Davey Jones of the Monkees.

The colorist screwed up. Bowie's eyes were 2 different colors.

Nope. Due to injury as a child, one of his pupils was permanently dilated. It SEEMED to be darker because of this, but it was the same.

“Meet Alicia. At her home 'studio' on 137th St in Harlem. Just a simple one bedroom. The room was so small, she sat on the bed and played the keyboard piano trying to come up with songs that matched the feelings in her heart. She sang in a closet covered with blankets through blazing NY summers trying to find her voice and show the non-believers she could do it. No matter what they said. She could do it all,” Alicia Keys reminisced about herself as a teenager.

Reese Witherspoon took a nostalgic approach on her throwback Instagram caption: “POV: it's 1987. You got your cool new Benetton sweater. You memorized all the words to 'Heaven is a Place on Earth' by Belinda Carlyle. Gonna go to a roller skating birthday party this weekend and play Dragon Slayer at the arcade. Eat Whatchamacallits and drink Cherry Cokes. LIFE IS GOOD.”

Aging and celebrities have always been two words that seem to go hand in hand. Many try to speculate what procedures certain celebs have or have not done, whilst our beloved Hollywood stars are often happy to share the secrets of their never-ending youth. Some of these tips are not as extravagant as you might think, like eating healthy, getting a solid amount of rest, or never going to bed with a full face of makeup on.

He's kinda cute here, but he got absolutely devastating when he grew all the way up. Some people look their best in maturity, and he's one.
