Tip: save this article for that rainy day you are feeling lousy and crappy, it’s sure to give you that so very needed confidence boost…
Many of our school photos are buried deep in our parent’s attic because, let’s face it, no one wants to see spotty teens with dodgy hairstyles and even dodgier braces. Even though we thought fringes that covered half our faces were cool at the time, looking back, there was nothing cool/cute/sexy about those sweeping fringes…
These photos may occasionally be brought out to show “look how much they’ve grown!” which basically translates to: “Thank goodness they don’t look like that anymore!”
School photos are embarrassing for all of us, unless you’re part of the 0.01% of the population that actually looked decent at that age! To make the rest of us feel a bit better, here are some school photos of celebs from before they were famous and before they could spend so much money on looking picture-perfect!
Lucky few
Some of these celebs actually looked decent in their photos, not jealous at all! But don’t worry, others are completely unrecognisable!
Taylor Swift
I’m sorry, the old Taylor can’t come to the phone right now. Why? Well because she’s grown up now!

Tay Tay (or her team) have put a bit more work into her hair and make-up since finding fame, but this photo shows they have a good base to work with!
Kanye West
It’s hard to believe Kanye West was ever a student at school! Surely he’s always been an adult and never a child?

In this photo, he looks equally familiar but also weirdly unfamiliar in his uniform and without his facial hair!
Rhianna
This fresh-faced Barbadian beauty clearly had the looks from an early age. She may not have the make up, but that face is unmistakeable!
