Before They Were Stars: Jennifer Aniston was born to Days of Our Lives star John Aniston and actress Nancy Dow. The girl who would launch a million “Rachel Green” haircuts (ladies, am I right?) began studying acting at the Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts in New York City. After parts in several short-lived series like Molloy and Ferris Bueller—and (how could we possibly forget?!) her role in the cult horror film Leprechaun—Aniston landed her big break on Friends.
Where Are They Now: Aniston married movie royalty Brad Pitt in 2000 in a lavish Malibu ceremony only to see the marriage dissolve in 2005. Career-wise, Aniston is on fire. She’s an Emmy- and Golden-winning megastar who seems to have a new film out every three months. After starting in critically acclaimed movies The Good Girl and Office Space, she hit box office gold with Bruce Almighty and The Break-Up (famously on the heels of her real-life split with Pitt— Oh, snap!). Coming soon, Aniston gets her naughty on in Horrible Bosses alongside Jason Batemen and Colin Farrell, as well as the Judd Apatow-produced Wanderlust.

Time to put on that lip ring and dust off that copy of Donnie Darko while you fire up some punk metal! Before these celebs were famous—and glamour-pusses on the red carpet— they had donned goth clothes, punky hair, and some seriously alternative looks. Now excuse us while we put on The Cure and curl up into the fetal position.

When Forbes magazine recently released their list of Hollywood’s Top-Paid Actresses for 2012, everyone was buzzing on who made the list and who didn’t even come close. While the following actresses in our gallery landed the coveted Top 10 spots, out of all of the big (and small) screen actresses out there, you may be surprised which newbie film star landed on the list and is ahead in earnings than a more established and well-known and beloved actress. But, these ladies all have one thing in common: before the fame, they all started somewhere, and often it was a high school drama club or early modeling gigs or taking on much smaller roles to pay the bills. Snakkle dug up pics of these top earners during their more humble beginnings.

Doesn’t it sometimes seem like celebrities all know each other? Well, that’s probably because most of them do. Off the top of your head, you can probably name any number of famous Hollywood families—the Gyllenhaals, Baldwins, Arquettes, Robertses—but the connections aren’t always so obvious. Can you guess, for example, who Mirror Mirror star Lily Collins’ famous parent is?

If there’s anything Hollywood hates more than rain, it’s aging. Wrinkles and a sagging anything are more terrifying than long-term unemployment, so it’s no wonder celebs young and old are always trying to keep the march of time off their faces. They’ll tell you the secret to the fountain of youth is the right makeup artist, some subtle plastic surgery, and a great personal trainer, and then it doesn’t matter how many candles are igniting that birthday cake. Snakkle is seeing a whole lot of mature faces looking way better than they did in their youth, so we honor the celebs defying their digits with some stellar DNA… (wink!)

Let’s take a journey back to the sexy lady’s days of ’80s boy hair, mom jeans, and heavy makeup.
