Where Are They Now: ’90s Crushes
Oh come on, we all did it—ripping apart every Tiger Beat and Teen People for that perfect picture of Leonardo DiCaprio to put on the ceiling above our bed (what…just us?). Lovely Leo’s back on the big screen the way we first fell in love with him, as romantic rascal Jack Dawson in Titanic 3D. We all know what happened to post-Titanic Leo (fame, fortune, Oscar noms, Blake Lively), but the return of crush-worthy Jack got me thinking—what happened to all those other hotties that made our hearts skip a teen beat in the ‘90s? Luckily for you, I’ve tracked all your favorite ‘90s heartthrobs down, so see how the man of your teenage dreams has fared over the years!

Justin Timberlake
Then: Setting teen hearts aflutter with that signature falsetto as 1/5 of ‘N Sync
Now: Who would have thought this ramen noodle-haired boy-bander would become the entertainer extraordinaire he is today? Singing, dancing, acting, hosting SNL, bringing sexy back, looking good in vests—is there anything Mr. Timberlake can’t do?

Ryan looks so much better all grown up.
Justin looks much better now
Great slide show but there are some missing. How about Devon Sawa, Jonathan Taylor Thomas and the Backstreet Boys? Those were the loves of my life when I was a teen.
Awesome slideshow!
AC Slater was the love of my (early teen) life! <3
John Stamos. It’s the “eyes”. Still looks charming.
Luke Perry. Never attractive, just look nice.
Hanson. They look better looking like men and not women.
Jaleel White looks very, very nice.
Joey Lawrence looks hot and hot and hot!
Mark Wahlberg. Growing up can bring about a change of looks as with Mark.
Mario Lopez’s dimples will always make him look good.
Will Smith? Nice………………
Kirk Cameron still looks the same.
Ryan Gosling looks better as an adult.
Justin Timberlake has taken good care of himself.
No Joseph Gordon-Levitt? In 1996, Tommy Solomon on 3rd Rock was the only TV crush for me… and he’s definitely done nothing but improve!

Stamos def got better with age.
