30 Wonderfully Old Photos of Famous People From Back in the Day
Time stops for no one, not even for the rich and famous. One day you are a teenager goofing around in front of the camera in your parents living room, and the next moment you are one of the richest people on earth. One second you are nervous about taking your yearbook photo and the next you have become a rock and roll legend. It's fun to look back at old pictures of famous people and see them as they were before their life had become something else entirely.
A young Barak Obama splashing at the beach, not aware of the crazy twists and turns his life is going to have in the next couple of years or a 10 year old Robin Williams posing for a school photo, oblivious to the exciting journey his life is about to take him on. We just wonder what brought Steve-O and Nikki Sixx to pose for the same picture.
