Robert Downey Jr. Junior Year at Santa Monica High School in Santa Monica, CA (1982)

We're guessing from that smirk Robert Downey Jr. was just as charming in high school as he is today. Much of that charm is what led to his MTV Movie Nomination for Best Hero for Iron Man 3.

Josh Hutcherson, Sophomore Year at Ryle High School in Union, Kentucky (2008), and Josh Hutcherson Today

Acting since he was 9, Josh Hutcherson always wanted to be an actor and he only made it through one year of traditional high school before he bowed out for homeschooling to pursue his career full-time. Now he’s got 21 feature films under his belt at the tender age of 19, but his role as Peeta Mellark in The Hunger Games has now made him a household name. He’s nominated in two categories at this year's MTV Movie Awards, including Best Male Performance and Best Fight.

Jennifer Lawrence, Eighth Grade at Kammerer Middle School in Louisville, Kentucky (2005), and Jennifer Lawrence Today

The young Jennifer Lawrence is a lot more smiley than her on-screen persona of Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games, but she certainly assured fans this year that she was the perfect actress for the beloved part. Acting since she was 14, Lawrence graduated high school two years early to go professional and earned her first Academy Award nomination by age 20 for Winter’s Bone. The MTV Movie Awards are Katniss and American Hustlescrazy this year, showering Lawrence with four nominations, for Best Female Performance, Best Kiss, Best Fight, and Best Musical Moment.

Jonah Hill (Feldstein), Sophomore Year at Crossroads School in Santa Monica, California (2000), and Jonah Hill Today

Funnyman Jonah Hill’s parents both work in show business, but he didn’t pursue the business as his profession until he started writing short plays in college in New York City. His friends were the kids of Dustin Hoffman, and the actor got Hill an audition for I Heart Huckabees, thus cementing his new career. The former roly-poly comedian appeared in 26 films before he lost a huge amount of weight, which he showed off in 21 Jump Street . He’s up for three MTV Movie Awards for The Wolf of Wall Street and This is the End, including Best Comedic Performance and Best Fight.

Michelle Williams, Sophomore Year at Santa Fe Christian School in Solana Beach, California (1995), and Michelle Williams Today

Michelle Williams was gorgeous from birth, right? No awkward high school years for Williams, who started acting in television shows in 1993. Dawson's Creek put her on the showbiz map, but since then Williams has worked exclusively in film. She’s earned three Academy Award nominations, and her role as Marilyn Monroe in My Week with Marilyn snagged her a 2013 MTV Movie nom for Best On-Screen Transformation.

That brunette hottie with the halo around her hair is comedian Kristen Wiig. Back then, Wiig wanted to be an art major and she pursued her studies after high school at the University of Arizona. However, a gen-ed acting class derailed her goals when she deciding performing was in her future. She joined the Groundlings in L.A. and is now one of the elite female comics in film and TV.

Tom Cruise, Senior Year at Glen Ridge High School in Glen Ridge, New Jersey (1980), and Tom Cruise Today

Tom Cruise is certainly aging well. The dapper high school student doesn’t look that different today at age 49. Cruise has been acting for three decades now, and action films are still his blockbuster domain. Mission: Impossible: Ghost Protocol has earned Cruise two MTV Movie noms in 2013 for Best Fight and Best Gut-Wrenching Performance.

Did this picture stump you? Perhaps imagine the young lad with two ferns, a crazy beard, and a monkey sidekick? Yes, that’s funnyman Zach Galifianakis, who left his native North Carolina to try out comedy in New York City and then Los Angeles. A frequent face in comedy clubs in the '90s, Galifianakis then transitioned into film and television but finally became a household name (okay, if you can pronounce his last name) in 2009 with The Hangover. He was previously nominated for Best Comedic Performance, in The Hangover Part 2.

Stefan Gordy (future DJ Redfoo), Junior Year at Palisades High School in Pacific Palisades, California (1993), and DJ Redfoo Today

Did you know that Stefan Kendal Gordy, or DJ Redfoo of party band LMFAO, is the son of legendary Motown founder Berry Gordy? Music’s obviously in his blood and his bandmate’s, Skyler Austen Gordy (SkyBlu), who is also his nephew. The two grew up in Pacific Palisades and formed the band in 2006, but they didn’t blow up until the 2011 release of "Party Rock Anthem,” was nominated for Best Song, from 21 Jump Street.
