We all go through those awkward years; braces, baby weight, awkward kissy-face photos, and all the like. They are the coveted moments that re-surface on Instagram on Thursdays and make us thankful for puberty. Luckily for us normal people, we can hide these moments as much as possible. But for celebrities, their awkward years are on display for all to see. Check out some of the best celebrity transformations.
Miles Teller
Miles Teller came onto our radars in the remake of Footloose alongside Julianne Hough and in That Awkward Moment alongside the ever-beloved Zac Efron. While not a huge transformation, he has made a huge improvement from the dweeby, funny guy to a major hunk. Hubba hubba, I’d run miles and miles to get to those abs. Pun intended.
Ariana Grande
Ariana was formerly known for her red-haired, squeaky-voiced role as Cat on Victorious. Since then, she has ditched the red hair and has picked up an all-natural vegan diet that has given her a rockin’ bod. With her signature big ponytail and an even bigger voice, Ariana has transformed into one of the biggest pop stars of 2015.
Kylie Jenner
It wouldn’t be a list of transformations without Kylie Jenner on it. It’s unclear if she attained her new look naturally, but there is no doubt that her look has certainly changed. Not only have her lips magically gotten a lot plumper, but her face, body, and style has seen an insane transformation over the past couple years. Maybe she lost the baby weight and puberty treated her well, or maybe she used mommy’s plastic to get her new look. Either way, I think she looks hot.
Josh Peck
Josh Peck is high on the list of transformations because of his incredible weight loss since his Drake and Josh days. He lost an incredible 100 pounds in less than a year with the help of a trainer and a healthy diet. Now you can find him being laugh-out-loud funny on Vine and making hilarious jokes about his former weight loss days.
Miley Cyrus
Well, Miley, we can’t say this was necessarily a good improvement. Although she is staying true to herself and she claims this is what she was destined to be her whole life, I’d take her previous luscious brown locks and boho-chic style over her new hippie lifestyle any day. The day she chopped her hair was the day I lost all hope. But hey Miley, you do you.
These celebs are among the many that continue to amaze us with their transformations. They give us hope that maybe the Freshman 15 is not permanent and that maybe, just maybe, we have an amazing transformation yet to come.
