Have you ever been curious about the Nickelodeon stars that we used to see on our screens every day and where they ended up? We sure were, so we did some digging. Amanda Bynes, the cast of Big Time Rush and Keenan and Kel are just some names we wanted to check in on. Some people went MIA and left the entertainment biz, and some are still thriving actors today. Some had insane glow-ups. Josh Peck is handsome as heck. Did you know the little brother from Zoey 101 is hot now? Scroll to see what they looked like then versus now.
