Over the past week or so, the good people over on Twitter have been sharing their glow-ups from 2012 to the current day, and some of the results have really shocked people. After all, six years might not seem like a very long period, but, if a person happens to experience the joy of puberty during that time, they could go from looking like a skinny little kid to a fully-fledged grownup.
But, when you see that person on a fairly frequent basis - either up close and personal or on TV - it's difficult to really appreciate the difference between their former selves and how they are now. Just take a look at these 10 former child stars and you'll understand what I mean...
1. Emma Watson must've used some sort of magic for this transformation 2. Georgie Henley's trip to Narnia has clearly kept her looking youthful 3. Jonathan Lipnicki ain't so Stuart Little anymore 4. Zac Efron went from a goofy tween to a serious heartthrob 5. Alexa PenaVega might've been a Spy Kid once, but now she's married with a child 6. Josh Peck might not have been the hotter brother before, but he definitely is now 7. Alfred Enoch started life in Hogwarts, now he's trying to get away with murder 8. Tania Raymonde has the most stunning glow-up from the Malcolm in the Middle cast 9. Abigail Breslin might have been Little Miss Sunshine once, but not anymore 10. Matthew Lewis took on the challenge of puberty and wonWhile it's amazing to see all the stars of our childhoods all grown up and living their lives as adults, it's also sort of scary to see how much has changed in such a short period of time. It only seems like yesterday that I was settling down to watch Spy Kids or Harry Potter with my family - and now those actors are probably sharing their work with their own kids.
