1989: Joey and Jordan from New Kids On The Block

Joey was always my favorite New Kid On The Block, which is not a controversial opinion. But LOOK AT JORDAN'S HAIR. You could hide a puppy in there.

1989: NKOTB

Oh, Donny Walhberg. Wonderful in Band of Brothers; then married Jenny McCarthy. He burned through so much goodwill so fast.

1992: Joey Lawrence and Jenna Von Oy

I am way too hacky to avoid saying "WHOA" to this photo.

1994: Brandy and Ray J

Look at Ray J. Look at him. He grew up into the person who helped launch Kim Kardashian, because he was the other party in her sex tape. THANKS A LOT KID.

1996: Kirsten Dunst

White fishnets?!? Oh, Kiki. She's so cute -- she reminds me of a Fanning, which is actually apt because they grew up in the same general area of L.A. I believe (I'm basing that on the schools they went to).

1996: Paula Abdul

Look at that newscaster haircut. She's chasing Jane Pauley realness here.

1996: Mary-Kate and Ashley

The Olsens were a LOT harder to tell apart at this age. It's before the eyebrow code was a factor. If I had to guess, I'd put Ashley on the left, but that's just... pure gut.

1997: Amanda Bynes

This is the segment dedicated to LOOK HOW LONG WE HAVE KNOWN WHO THESE PEOPLE ARE.

1997: Jean Claude Van Damme

I assume he's doing a back bridge to show off his belt.

1997: Fran Drescher

Subtle as Nanny Fine.

1997: Cindy Crawford

That hair reminds me of Jennifer Aniston a bit.

1997: Damon Wayans

And who among us HASN'T worn our Umbros on our head at a formal event?

1997

Well THAT'S a time capsule: Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Jonathan "Jerry Maguire" Lipnicki.

1997: Tyra Banks

I swear I owned this dress. Well, the knockoff of it, anyway.

1997: Bethany Joy Lenz

I'm not completely sure why she was there, because in 1997, she had very few credits to her name and was still awaiting her big break -- which came a year later when she was cast as Kim Zimmer's clone in Guiding Light. And then, turned out to be so popular that they brought her back as a recast Michelle Bauer when Rebecca Budig left. I love soaps. BRING BACK CLASSIC SOAPS, YOU DUMMIES. Stick 'em in prime time and get people hooked! Play Reva's clone on CBS! Marlena being possessed on NBC! We can do this.

1997: Teri Hatcher and Jon Tenney

And look at these two. MEMORIES. She was still wrapping up as Lois Lane at this point.

1997

Oh Jewel. Who will saaaaaave your shiiiirt.

1998

Remember when Madonna's face had natural texture?

1998: Drew Barrymore

Drew naming her company Flower is about the most perfect thing I could imagine.

1998: Alicia Silverstone

Oh, Cher. Just don't button it, then.

1998

You may recall Larisa Oleynik from 10 Things I Hate About You, and if you don't, DEFINITELY find it and watch it immediately. That movie holds up.

1998: Katie Holmes

Can you imagine anyone on Riverdale turning up to an event looking like she'd borrowed everything from her older sister's work wardrobe? Did stylists just not EXIST then?

1999: Drew Barrymore

I wonder if that's a skirt, or just massive jeans. Neither one changes the fact that she's wearing a necklace on her head.

1999: Jessica Biel

Why on EARTH did they stick a chair on the red carpet?!? This works for NO ONE's photos.

1999: T-Boz, Lisa Left-Eye, and Chilli

I need to confess something: I looked at this photo about three times before I noticed that T, L, and C are each wearing their letter on their chests.

2000: Carly Pope and Leslie Bibb

Ah, the first blush of true fame. These two were cresting the wave on Popular, and while Leslie Bibb could probably embellish that now and convince you it wasn't just a bridesmaid dress, Carly Pope's shirt is made of gaffer tape.

2000

Is that a J. Pederman coat, Elaine?

2000: Jessica Simpson

I mean, I guess if you hope to get slimed, this is for sure what you wear.

2000: Will Smith

I think those are Uncle Phil's jeans.

2000: Jamie Foxx

So are THESE, actually.

2000: LL Cool J

Did he bike there?

2000

Priscilla Taylor here was a Playmate, and Ricky Paull Goldin was a soap actor. My question here is: Which kids were choosing EITHER ONE of them at this point? And why the hell is he wearing leather shower slides?

2000

And while we're here, did Sinbad come straight from the airport?

2000: J.Lo

"Hola lovers. I still have this Pashmina. Now I use it as a dress."

The Kids' Choice Awards From Waaay Back: NKOTB, Young Kirsten Dunst, and... Sinbad? Sure!

From the eighties to the new century.
