See some of our favourites below…
Lisa Wilkinson
The Project host might be known for delivering powerful monologues in sharply tailored blazers, but back in the day she was fond of drinking cola in the local RSL while rocking a peasant blouse. How the times have changed!

Reese Witherspoon
With the same big smile and wide eyes still, it’s not hard to pick that the below photo of a 10-year-old actress is Reese Witherspoon.
Georgie Parker
The iconic Australian star revealed her first headshot was taken by a friend, after she got a dramatic spiral perm at the local hairdresser.
Drew Barrymore
The actress revealed her incredibly cute old headshot reminds her of both her daughters now, 5-year-old Olive and 4-year-old Frankie.
Lynne McGranger
“Circa 350BC,” the Home and Away star captioned this stunning throwback photo.
Melanie Vallejo
Clearly, Winners and Losers star Mel has never taken a bad photo in her life.
Dan McPherson
Nothing says ’90s show-business like some golden highlights, a silver chain and an unbuttoned shirt. Dan McPherson scored the bad headshot trifecta with this beauty back in 1998.
Merrick Watts
He might be busy trying to score laughs on stage as a comedian nowadays, but way back in the ’90s Merrick was trying his very best to be ~serious~ for the camera.
Sarah Hyland
It looks like the Modern Family star and His Royal Highness Prince George were separated at birth in her adorable old headshot.
Melissa McCarthy
The Bridesmaids actress offered up her own take on one of 2018’s hottest memes, joking in the caption of her snap: “If you can’t handle my scowling headshot you don’t deserve my tiny cowboy hat headshot.”
Gerard Butler
Somehow the Scottish star has always been dreamy, even in his awkward teen ‘wild floppy hair’ years.
Viola Davis
“I was feeling myself during this shoot,” the How To Get Away With Murder star joked on Twitter, and we can see why. The flawless skin, her killer smile, no embarrassing features here!
Sarah Michelle Gellar
Long before she was slaying vampires, SMG was slaying headshots with fluffy Farrah Fawcett style bangs and a piercing stare.
Karlie Kloss
Unlike the rest of us, it seems Victoria’s Secret model Karlie Kloss never really had an awkward phase. At just 16 years of age, she already had the natural grace and charisma to take on the runway.
Osher Günsberg
Remember back in the early 2000s when beloved The Bachelor host Osher Günsberg was named Andrew G? Yeah… It was a simpler time, filled with blonde highlights, string necklaces and graphic print ‘tees.
