The story of the ugly duckling is immediately remembered when you look at the children's photos of some popular and highly paid stars, who are considered the embodiment of beauty and style icons.
But they were not always as attractive as they are now.
Ryan Seacrest
Today, this is a handsome and successful man, and as a child he was an awkward, fat-faced man with glasses. All his younger years, Ryan suffered from extra pounds, for which he completely ignored the girls.
Victoria Beckham
There is an expression that a woman does not paint a year. In the case of Victoria, quite the contrary. Age only went to the benefit of her appearance.
Julia Roberts
Known throughout the world for her dazzling smile, a charismatic and sought-after Hollywood actress, in her childhood had an ordinary appearance. She complexed because of her red hair and big mouth, and also because of hateful glasses.
Matthew Lewis
Since childhood he has become known to the general public, since he was shot in the sensational film "Harry Potter". And many know firsthand how Matt was unattractive at his young age. But what a surprise for everyone to see an adult Lewis, he just transformed and became a real handsome.
Drew Barrymore
This is now Drew sparkles like a pearl on the red carpet, and in childhood she was, to put it mildly, unattractive. A large chin and protruding cheekbones did not make the little girl look pretty, and at the adolescence, Drew was addicted to drugs. But having managed to overcome all difficulties, she became a "wonderful swan" and a wonderful actress.
Sarah Jessica Parker
Sarah still has a specific appearance, not everyone will call her a beauty, but she could beat her image so that she became just a trendsetter, she has a chic figure and a sea of charm. And in school years, Parker had an unsuccessful haircut and strange blouses.
Cristiano Ronaldo
How disappointed his fans, knowing that their idol and the sexiest football player in his childhood "was friends" with pimples and crooked teeth.
Chloe Kardashian
Now in Chloe do not recognize that fat and embarrassed girl, whom she was at school. But perseverance and work helped her make a beauty that many would envy.
Tina Kandelaki
From the first class and almost all school years Tina was immersed in studies, and sports did not pay the slightest attention. She grew up in a well-groomed and fed mother's child, until she told herself at age 16 - enough, and took up her appearance. Therefore, only by the age of 25 she was able to safely wear a mini-skirt.
Demmy Moor
We all know Demi as an amazing actress with an excellent figure and beautiful appearance. But when Moore was little, she had to wear horny glasses, in which she looked ridiculous. Of course, plastic surgery did not do without, but her colossal work on her image brought fruit.
Kesha
On the school photo Kesha can not be learned, rough features, baggy clothes, well, just a gray mouse. But now thousands of people are imitating its images and style.
Kate Moss
Some people, seeing Kate's baby photo for the first time, wonder how she was lucky to become one of the most popular models in the fashion industry. Just at 16, she began to grow up and turn into a sexy and attractive girl, who is now.
Scarlett Johansson
Sex symbol, beauty, talented and sought-after actress in adolescence was an indistinguishable girl. She had the usual appearance of a gray mouse.
Joe Manganello
Joe could easily lead the ranking of the most beautiful men on the planet. But it is now, and in the childhood this actor was an inconspicuous "ochkarik" who had no popularity among girls.
Megan Fox
The star of the film "Transformers" played a popular high school student with a model appearance. In real life at school she was very shy because of her unattractiveness, crooked teeth and ugly eyebrows only aggravated her appearance.
Jennifer Garner
Jennifer at school was more engaged in studying, sports, playing the saxophone and wanted to become, like her father, a scientist, so there was no time left for the appearance.
Goldie Hawn
In school, Goldie could not boast of popularity, but from a young age she shone on stage as a dancer, and so she simply got used to applause and applause.
Dwayne Johnson
In his childhood, Johnson was a bit overweight and wore a funny hairdo, so today, in comparison with children's photos, he hardly recognizes.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
The favorite of all women, the handsome Jean Claude was a real "botanist" as a child.
Of course, such cardinal changes did not come to everyone from mother nature, someone fell under the knife of plastic surgeons, someone sat for hours in a chair with a stylist, and someone has to sweat regularly in the gym. But all the same, it is a tremendous effort that has been made to become what they are today.
