45+ Celebs In Their Oldest And Most Recent Paparazzi Photos That Are Actually Pretty Wild
In general, the paparazzi will stick with a celebrity throughout their entire career. This can make for some interesting comparisons in the future as different artists change their performance style, fashion, or even just evolve in their careers. When compared to what our favorite celebrities look like now, these are some of the earliest photographs that the paparazzi have managed to get off them.
Paul Rudd
Paul Rudd is an actor who has been working in Hollywood for some time. The actor has appeared in a wide variety of films and television shows, ranging from “Anchorman” to “Ant-Man.” When he was only 26 years old, the paparazzi managed to get a picture of him at a premiere. This photograph is one of the earliest ones they have of him. The second image is an up-to-date portrait of the actor, who is now 53 years old. In the time that has passed since these two photos were taken, the celebrity’s career has gone from strength to strength. Not to mention the fact that he is renowned for having a youthful-appearing appearance despite his apparent age.
Jennifer Lopez
Jennifer Lopez has had a long and successful career in a variety of fields. She has performed on stage as an actress, as well as a singer and a dancer. This adds a lot of credibility to her profile! Jennifer Lopez attended the premiere of the film Selena in 1997, the same year that this picture was taken. In the film, Lopez played the role of Selena Quintanilla-Pérez.

This was a major factor in helping Lopez achieve superstardom as if her prior success wasn’t already impressive enough. The fact that she has released music appeared in movies and done other things keeps the paparazzi busy today.
Oprah
There are some celebrities whose names are familiar to almost everyone. These people are known as household names. There are very few names that are as instantly recognizable as that of Oprah Winfrey. “Household name” almost seems like an understatement. At this point in Oprah’s career, you will most likely see her most frequently on her talk show.
Oprah
You might, however, see her in a few acting roles or catch her writing a book at the same time. She wasn’t always the household name that she is today, that much is certain. The first image reveals the host of the talk show to be only 24 years old.
Jennifer Aniston
Jennifer Aniston has emerged as one of the most recognizable faces in Hollywood. Nevertheless, when the first picture was taken of her in 1990, she had not yet starred in either Friends or Leprechaun. After so many years in the business, Aniston now has a filmography that is so extensive that it would be impossible to list it all here.
Jennifer Aniston
The celebrity has also put her fame to good use by working with charitable organizations such as St. Jude’s, and she was awarded the GLAAD Vanguard Award for her efforts. Even though her performance as Rachel was a major factor in her rise to fame, it is hardly the only role that Jennifer Aniston has played that is beloved by her audience.
Leonardo DiCaprio
It is safe to say that Leonardo DiCaprio is one of the most famous actors working in Hollywood today. Additionally, he has spent a significant portion of his life working in this industry. The very first photograph was taken all the way back in 1989, during the time that Leonardo DiCaprio was making appearances on the television shows Funhouse and Parenthood.

Now 47 years old, the actor can look back on a long list of achievements. This includes a lengthy filmography as well as a multitude of honors and awards for his work in various fields. In recent years, he has also focused a significant amount of his attention and efforts on promoting environmental awareness.
Beyoncé
Beyoncé is one of the few pop singers who wields as much influence as she does. She has amassed quite the following thanks to both her work as a member of Destiny’s Child and her work as a solo artist. Beyoncé is shown in the first photo just beginning her career with Destiny’s Child when she was 16 years old.
Beyoncé
Since 1998, the magnitude of the star has increased significantly. She has been the recipient of numerous accolades, which serve to highlight her talent. Her place in music history is unquestionably cemented, as evidenced by the 28 Grammys and 24 NAACP awards she has received.
Dylan Sprouse
Many people are familiar with the Sprouse Twins as a result of their time spent performing on the Disney Channel. After all, it’s impossible to forget about shows like “The Suite Life of Zack and Cody.” However, prior to that, both actors had appeared in a few other roles.
Dylan Sprouse
Here is a picture of Dylan Sprouse at the premiere of Big Daddy when he was only six years old compared to a picture of him today. This Sprouse twin has remained active in the acting world, contributed to the creation of a comic book, and recently finished earning a degree in video game design.
Cole Sprouse
When they were just starting out in their careers, the Sprouse twins were rarely seen apart from one another. Therefore, it should not come as much of a surprise that Big Daddy was also the source of the earliest paparazzi photo of Cole.
Cole Sprouse
Cole Sprouse has maintained his career as an actor while at the same time devoting time and effort toward earning a degree in archaeology in recent years. In recent years, the actor has become the focus of a great deal of attention due to his performance as Jughead in the CW series Riverdale.

Another performer who has been in the public eye ever since she was a child is Ariana Grande. Her appearance on Victorious left a lasting impression on a lot of viewers. However, even before this, Grande worked as an actress on Broadway; here, she is featured in the production of 13: The Musical.
Ariana Grande
Since then, Grande, who was only 14 years old at the time, has established herself as a pop star who possesses an astonishing vocal range. She has also made a few appearances on television, the most notable of which was her part as a judge on the show The Voice.
Gigi Hadid
Gigi Hadid has an extensive portfolio to back up her claim that she is a successful model. Nobody has ever been featured on the cover of Vogue 35 times, much less in the span of fewer than five years. The celebrity model began her career when she was still a young child; however, when she was a teenager, she took a break from the industry.
Gigi Hadid
After she had returned to the country in 2013, she saw rapid advancement in her career. It’s interesting to note that the model has also been a guest on multiple shows on the Food Network and has tried her hand at a few different acting roles.
Kanye West
Ye, formerly known by his stage name Kanye West, has been active in the music industry for a considerable amount of time. Even before he started making things under his own brand, he was already working in production.
Kanye West
Since then, Ye has been catapulted to the status of a superstar, receiving praise from both fans and critics alike. In 2022, he made the announcement that the follow-up album Donda 2 would be released soon, despite the fact that a significant amount of media attention is focused on the artist’s personal life in addition to his music career.
Mariah Carey
It’s difficult to conceive of a time when the paparazzi weren’t interested in Mariah Carey’s antics in some capacity or another. There is no doubt that the pop star has left her imprint on the industry. Nevertheless, even Mariah Carey had to begin her career at some point before she could earn titles such as “Songbird Supreme.”
Mariah Carey
She got her start in the music industry in the late 1980s when she presented herself to producer Tommy Mottola and gave him a tape of her work. Since then, she has established quite a name for herself in the music industry by becoming the solo artist who has achieved the number-one singles.
Megan Fox
Megan Fox’s professional life can be broken down into two distinct categories. The actress and model have appeared in several films, including Jennifer’s Body and Transformers, in which she has played both roles.

The first films produced by Fox were released in the early 2000s and included titles such as Two and a Half Men and Holiday in the Sun. However, her major debut was marked by the publication of the book Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen. Since that time, the actor has experimented with a wide range of roles and styles.
SZA
SZA’s music has carved out a unique space for herself in the R&B genre, and her fans adore this. She began her career by releasing two EPs under her own name, which ultimately led to her being discovered by Top Dawg Entertainment.
SZA
Since then, the musician has put out an album recorded in a studio, has another one in the works, and has worked on projects with other musicians like Doja Cat.

Rihanna
Since the beginning of her career, Rihanna has amassed an incredible amount of success. In addition to that, she has been able to significantly broaden the scope of the work that she does as a musician.

Kristen Bell
Her work as an actress has brought Kristen Bell the majority of her fame. Even though it wasn’t her very first role, her work in Veronica Mars was a huge factor in the rise to fame that she experienced.
Kristen Bell
She has also appeared in a number of other well-known shows, including Gossip Girl and The Good Place, among others. In the first picture, Bell is seen walking the red carpet for the very first time; by this point, the experience must feel a lot more normal to her because she has done it so many times.
The Jonas Brothers
When they made their public debut, the Jonas Brothers were still in their younger years. During that time, the majority of promotion for their music came from Disney and their show that aired on the Disney Channel. In 2011, the band went on hiatus, which enabled Kevin, Joe, and Nick Jonas to concentrate on developing their individual careers.
The Jonas Brothers
Early in 2019, much to the delight of their respective fan bases, the brothers got back together. Since then, the band has announced not only a tour but also a residency in Las Vegas, which is a clear indication of how successful the reunion has been.
Tom Holland
Many people, in this day and age, immediately think of Spider-Man when they see Tom Holland’s face. After all, the star has now made an appearance as the web-slinger in six different movies that are part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Tom Holland
Prior to this, the star had a career that consisted primarily of stage work as well as a few roles in films such as the movie How I Live Now. Nevertheless, the contract that he signed with Marvel was the impetus that propelled Holland to superstardom when he took over the role of Peter Parker.
Bella Thorne
Another actress who became famous thanks to her work on the Disney Channel at the beginning of her career is Bella Thorne. She became quite well-known due to her role as a primary protagonist in the film Shake It Up. The actress has been in a number of different productions since she left her role at Disney.

The singer is consistently releasing new music despite the growing attention that is being paid to her career.
Billie Eilish
In addition, she has gained quite a bit of notoriety for her fashion sense in recent years, despite the fact that she has altered some of her most recognizable characteristics, such as the color of her dyed hair. The star is only 20 years old, but she already has an impressive number of accolades behind her name, including seven Grammy Awards.

When Shawn Mendes first started posting covers online, it was on Vine. After that, things unquestionably took a successful turn, and by 2018, the musician had been named one of Time magazine’s 100 most influential people.

Throughout his career, however, Barker has been best recognized as the drummer for the band Blink-182, despite the fact that he has participated in a number of other bands.
Travis Barker
Barker became a member of Blink-182 following the departure of Blink-182’s previous drummer, Scott Raynor, and subsequent tour dates with the band as a member of the Aquabats. The rest, as they say, is history!
Justin Bieber
A significant amount of time has passed since Justin Bieber was last seen performing on stage. The young musician launched a successful career in the pop music industry when he was just a child. To say that the musician’s career has flourished in recent times is something of an understatement at this point.
Justin Bieber
The celebrity was only 18 years old when he achieved record-breaking success by releasing five albums that debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart. Nevertheless, the star has been forced to deal with some controversy over the course of their career.
Kris Jenner
The Jenner-Kardashians have been in the spotlight for quite some time now. Kris Jenner, the matriarch of the Jenner family, has been responsible for carefully coordinating much of this media attention. Keeping Up With the Kardashians did not, on the other hand, mark the beginning of Jenner’s time in the public eye.

The celebrity has been in the spotlight ever since she tied the knot with reality television star Robert Kardashian. Since then, she has wed Caitlyn Jenner, gone through a divorce, and further cemented her family’s place in the annals of reality television history.

Kim Kardashian began her career at a relatively tender age. You can see her walking the red carpet with the rest of her famous family in this picture, even though she was only 14 years old at the time.

She has also been a model, in which capacity she has built quite a successful career for herself!

The young actress shot to prominence thanks in large part to the Netflix show, and since then, she has appeared in a variety of films and television shows.

However, over the course of her career, the singer has developed into a pop star in the traditional sense. All things considered, the celebrity has been able to amass a sizable fan base and maintains a high level of success.
Hailey Bieber
Before she became Hailey Bieber, Hailey Baldwin was the name that most people knew her by before she married Justin Bieber. If you’re wondering why her last name is so recognizable, it’s because she’s Stephen Baldwin’s daughter!

Hailey Bieber
In addition to this, the model has amassed quite the following across various social media platforms over the course of her career, and she may even have made a few appearances on television and in music videos.

Bella Hadid
At the age of sixteen, Bella Hadid launched her career as a fashion model. However, it did not take very long before she became somewhat well-known in her field. Hadid didn’t make her debut at New York Fashion Week until just one month after she was initially signed on with a modeling agency.
Bella Hadid
Only three years later, she would begin a run that would include a year with the most September Vogue covers. This run would begin in the year 2005. She would bring her total number of covers for Vogue to 27 over the course of the following four years.
Miley Cyrus
Previously, we mentioned Noah Cyrus. Because of this, it is only logical to also discuss Miley’s older sister’s professional life. Early on, Cyrus’s work was almost exclusively featured on Disney Channel shows.
Miley Cyrus
Even so, given the celebrity status of the star’s parents, it is highly unlikely that this was the first time the paparazzi had photographed the celebrity. Today, the musician has developed her career as an actress as well as a musician, and she has even used her position to do some philanthropy.

Even for a short time, she returned to her role as Sabrina Spellman for an appearance in Riverdale. After completing her run as Sabrina, the young actress has appeared in a variety of roles since leaving the role.
Zendaya
Another rising young star who got her start with Disney, Zendaya is a rising star. She collaborated with Bella Thorne on the production of Shake It Up and later appeared in shows such as K.C. Undercover. Since then, the formerly beloved Disney star has shed her image as a role model for children and instead taken on more adult-oriented parts.

Although she quickly became a fan favorite after making her debut in the sixth season of the show, it was her success in the music industry that propelled her to an even higher level of notoriety. The musician has also left her mark in the world of fashion, and she maintains an active presence across various social media platforms.
Kacey Musgraves
In the year 2008, Triple Pop producer Monte Robison was the one who discovered Kavey Musgraves and signed her to the label after hearing her music and being impressed by it. Since that time, it would be somewhat of an understatement to say that Musgrave’s career has flourished.
Kacey Musgraves
The musician has been honored with a total of seven awards from the Country Music Association Awards, in addition to three awards from the Academy of Country Music Awards. Not all of her awards are in a particular genre, as evidenced by the fact that she has six Grammys.
Jason Momoa
The majority of fans today think of Jason Momoa in connection with his more recent roles, such as portraying Aquaman on the big screen as one of the comic book heroes brought to life on film.

Even though the star will be leaving Saturday Night Live in the near future, he has definitely expanded his career beyond sketch comedy and standup comedy with projects such as The King of Staten Island and Big Time Adolescence. In recent times, the comedian has been the subject of a great deal of attention due to the fact that he is romantically involved with Kim Kardashian.
