Ever had some scary hair? This gallery reveals high school and before-they-were-stars photos of celebrities hiding beneath some seriously bad bowl cuts. Too bad for them they were captured on film, but with age, wiser chop choices, and probably a professional stylist, these A-listers look a lot more clean-cut.

Once there was a time when MILFs were just a weird combination of letters, and when the words “This one time, at band camp…” didn’t strike fear into the hearts of flautists everywhere. This was, of course, the murky time in our history known as BAP: Before American Pie. Then, in 1999, director brothers Paul and Chris Weitz decided to unleash the blockbuster American Pie into our consciousness. The story of four teenage boys who make a pact to lose their virginity by prom night soon became the Porky’s for a new generation. Now they’re back with American Reunion, where Jim, Michelle, Stifler, and the gang have returned for a new assault against warm baked goods and our sense of well-being. See what the American Pie cast really looked like in high school, and find out what they’re up to today.
