Reese Witherspoon, Brad Pitt, and More Stars’ High School Yearbook Photos
Most people would like to forget their high school yearbook photos, lest they be reminded of the time they thought big hair and hair streaks were cool. Unfortunately for celebrities, their pre-fame days are immortalized for eternity thanks to the Internet. From Reese Witherspoon to Brad Pitt, these throwback photos will have you missing your hairspray.
In the case of Brad, his teenage days have been revealed by his former high school sweetheart, who revealed what it was like to date the star before he became America’s heartthrob.
“He was a good first boyfriend,” former classmate and girlfriend Kim Hubbard said in 2014. “That was a lifetime ago. Now he has six kids and I have two. I think everybody knew he would be successful in whatever he would do. I just knew. He just had a personality that attracted people, he had leadership skills and he was sweet and kind.”
But despite his obvious star potential, Brad was still just a regular high schooler.
“[We liked to go to] the skating rink,” Kim said. “When you’re that young you don’t even have a car, you go to parties and sporting events. He was good at tennis. It was just part of growing up.”
