From Hollywood hunks to chart-topping music stars - can you guess the celebrities from their high school yearbook photos?
They might be rich, famous and some of the biggest names in Hollywood, but celebrities were also once just high school students with a dream to conquer the entertainment world. As Gwyneth Paltrow's yearbook snap recently hit the headlines amid reports that her teenage 'nightmare' was 'obesity,' according to a new bombshell biography, the old school photos of other big names have once again come into prominence. Nowadays they sport megawatt smiles, polished hair and designer clothing, but back when they were teenagers, some of the world's most famous stars owned dodgy haircuts, cheesy grins and a questionable fashion sense - and there's photos to prove it. Some of these stars have gone on to become huge Hollywood film stars, starring in the world's biggest blockbusters. While others have gone on to dominate the music industry, lighting up the charts with their distinctive voices. Meanwhile, others have raised eyebrows and made front-page news with the goings on in their private lives. Here, we take a look back at the humble beginnings and illustrious careers of some of showbiz's biggest stars, but can you guess who they are? An Academy Award winner who landed his big break in the early 90s on a medical television drama This 64-year-old Hollywood megastar has not only starred in some of the industry's biggest blockbusters, but he also writes, directs and produces them. Born on May 6, 1961 in Kentucky, this actor attended Augusta High School and has previously stated that he earned As and a B. He also played baseball and basketball. He went on to attend Northern Kentucky University from 1979 to 1981, majoring in broadcast journalism, and very briefly attended the University of Cincinnati, but did not graduate from either. As an actor, he rose to fame starring in the NBC medical drama ER from 1994 to 1999 and for his work on the series, he earned various award nominations including two Primetime Emmy nods.

In terms of movies, he's racked up plenty of credits in films such as From Dusk Till Dawn, The Perfect Storm, Ocean's Eleven, and won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for the 2005 thriller Syriana. It's none other than George Clooney! The O Brother, Where Art Thou? actor has an estimated net worth of about $500 million and often spends time at his Lake Como home with his wife, Amal Clooney, and their two children, Ella and Alexander. A multi-award winning Hollywood actor with one of the strongest marriages in showbiz This other Hollywood big hitter, 69, was born in Concord, California and attended Skyline High School, in Oakland, California, where he was an active member on the track team. He went on to study theatre at Chabot College in Hayward, California and after two years, he transferred to California State University, Sacramento.

A multi-platinum selling artist, this singer has scored a total of eight top 10 singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart.

They initially crossed paths on the set of the 1968 film The One And Only, Genuine, Original Family Band when she was 21 and he was just 16. Meanwhile, her daughter, whom she shares with ex-husband Bill Hudson, has followed in her actress footsteps and has carved out a successful film career of her own.

However, he then achieved global success as he starred as Hans Solo in the hugely popular science fantasy franchise Star Wars, a role he played across five of the films. This wasn't his only iconic role as just a few years later, he starred as adventurous archaeologist Indiana Jones, playing the part in five movies beginning with 1981's Raiders of the Lost Ark. While his film career has spanned 70 years, he continues to shine, having just landed his first-ever Emmy Award nomination for his performance as Dr. Paul Rhoades in the second season of Apple TV+ series Shrinking - just two days after celebrating his 83rd birthday. The Chicago-born grandfather-of-three made history as the second oldest nominee in that category after The Kominsky Method actor Alan Arkin scored a nod at age 86 in 2020. Meanwhile, in his private life, he's married to an actress, 60, best known for playing the titular character in Fox series Ally McBeal. The couple met at the 59th Golden Globes in 2002 – but it wasn't exactly love at first sight when Harrison sidled up to her table. Speaking to The Times last April, the actress admitted she was initially underwhelmed when Harrison endeavored to introduce himself 'because I had never seen Star Wars, which I know sounds really crazy.' Yes, it's Harrison Ford, who has been married to Calista Flockhart for 15 years. The Hollywood stars wed in 2010 in Santa Fe, New Mexico, one year after Harrison proposed. An actress and talk show host known for her turbulent marriage to her Hollywood star husband The actress was born in Baltimore and famously went to Baltimore School for the Arts with the late rapper Tupac Shakur, where the pair were inseparable. She started off her acting career in 1990 with an appearance in an episode of True colours, going on to appear in TV shows Doogie Howser, M.D and 21 Jump Street before getting her big break in 1991 on the sitcom A Different World. Her career then saw her star in films such as Menace II Society, The Nutty Professor, Set It Off, Scream 2 and The Matrix Reloaded. In recent years, she's also had success as a talk show host thanks to her Facebook Watch show Red Table Talk, for which she bagged a Daytime Emmy Award. Notably, she's married to another Hollywood star, with her Oscar-winning spouse starting out as a rapper before landing a famous sitcom role that then kicked off his huge acting career. The prominent Hollywood couple married in 1997 and share two children together, Willow, 24, and Jaden, 27. In recent years, the pair have been plagued with marital troubles. In 2020, the actress confessed to the world that she'd been unfaithful to her husband with singer August Alsina in 2016 in an on-air interview that left her spouse 'humiliated'. While during an appearance on the Today Show in October 2023, she told Hoda Kotb that they made the decision to separate seven years earlier, after feeling 'exhausted with trying' to work on their marriage. 'I think we were both still stuck in our fantasy of what we thought the other person should be,' she explained of what caused them to drift apart. In her memoir book, Worthy, she described the separation as a 'divorce,' but clarified they never filed any paperwork. That's right, it's Jada Pinkett Smith, married to Men In Black and Independence Day star Will Smith. Reality star and businesswoman worth over $1billion with an Instagram following of a whopping 356 million The reality star and business woman, 44, was born in Los Angeles and attended Roman Catholic all-girls Marymount High School. Her younger years already saw her having a brush with fame, with her late Armenian lawyer father famously representing O.J Simpson in his murder trial, while her step-father was an Olympian. While she became known for her friendship and job as a stylist for socialite Paris Hilton, it was her 2003 sex tape (released in 2007) with then-boyfriend Ray J that catapulted her to fame. Instead of shying away from the spotlight, she capitalised on her popularity, with her and her family going on to star in their eponymous reality show that thrust them all into the limelight. With the help of her 'momager' mother, she and her siblings went on to carve out a successful reality TV career with various spin-offs, while they also launched their business empire with various enterprises in fashion and beauty. Emerging as the breakout star of the famous family, this media personality also became known for her high-profile relationships and marriages, with one union to a basketball player lasting just 72 days. While her marriage to a controversial rapper, with whom she shares four children, is still making headlines three years after their divorce. Of course, it's the one and only Kim Kardashian. Almost 20 years after first soaring to fame, Kim continues to be one of the most famous names on the planet, with a net worth of over $1 billion dollars and millions of social media followers. And she's not done with expanding her career yet, having recently graduated law school while she's beginning to build an impressive acting portfolio with roles in projects such as CSI: NY, American Horror Story,Paw Patrol: The Movie and All's Fair.

Where are the cast of Skins now? How stars of the E4 show have enjoyed varying success - from becoming neuroscientists to OnlyFans fame - as alum Nicholas Hoult wows in latest Superman movie
It's launched the careers of some of Britain's most hyped actors of the noughties. But before it brought the glittering talents of stars like the latest Superman villain Nicholas Hoult to the screen - Skins was the hot new E4 show that cast bright-eyed, fresh-faced teens in its edgy drama. Now a large portion of the alum boast a myriad of award-winning projects, Oscar nominations, BAFTA wins and Hollywood-laden film credits - while others have ventured to pastures anew, including one fan-favourite who became a neuroscientist, while another moved to teaching. Considered revolutionary television today, the programme captured the imaginations of an entire generation of millennials when it debuted, as audiences watched its characters indulge in outrageous sexual escapades, go on drug binges and skip school. Although it was a satire at heart, viewers responded to the 'realistic' characters and how they represented teenage life in Britain. Created by Bryan Elsley and his son Jamie Brittain, the programme was the launchpad for a handful of the cast, including Nicholas Hoult and Kaya Scodelario, who have wowed with hits like Nosferatu and Guy Ritchie 's The Gentlemen respectively. Elsewhere, Dev Patel, who played Anwar Kharral and Daniel Kaluuya, who starred as Posh Kenneth, have each earned Oscar noms - with the latter snagging Best Supporting actor for his part in Judas and the Black Messiah in 2021. Nicholas Hoult - Tony Stonem Nicholas' character Tony Stonem was as cool as he was manipulative - a stud with a harem of doe-eyed admires at his heels. And while morally ambiguous in the series, the actor, then just 17, stole the hearts of viewers with his devilishly handsome looks and outrageous scheming. Having previously starred in About a Boy when he was 11-years-old, Skins was Nicholas' second big role before reaching adulthood. The star, now 35 - who is originally from Wokingham in Berkshire - has now more than settled into his leading man charm. Through the noughties, he went on to star in a string of blockbuster flicks, including the X-Men series, Mad Max: Fury Road, The Favourite and The Menu. In his most recent project, he is playing Lex Luthor in the new Superman film. He has been in a relationship with model, Bryana Holly, 31, for seven years, having recently made their relationship official red carpet official. In November, he seemingly confirmed that the couple were secretly married. The pair previously sparked speculation that they'd tied the knot in 2023, when they were spotted wearing wedding bands at Anya Taylor-Joy and Malcolm McRae 's wedding, though nothing was confirmed. Speaking to E! News on the red carpet, Nicholas made a rare comment about Bryana, remarking: 'Afterwards, I remember I had my wife's nails imprinted on my hand. I was like, 'Oh my gosh, this was tense.'' The pair also share Joaquin, six, and another child born in 2022, though they have mostly kept details of their relationship private. Before finding love with Bryana, Nicholas also dated Hollywood actress, Jennifer Lawrence, who he was in an on and off relationship between 2010 and 2014. Effy Stonem - Kaya Scodelario Effy, Tony's little sister, often partied more than her brother in the coming-of-age show - and was often seen sneaking off at night to indulge in revelry. She quickly became a fan-favourite, hence launching Kaya Scodelario's successful on screen career; despite her being cast in the role at just 14, having never acted a day in her life. But despite her lack of experience, she became one of the only characters to star in every season from one to four - becoming the lead in the latter series. Since then, Kaya, now 33, has gone on to star in a number of career defining roles such as Wuthering Heights, the Maze Runner series and more recently, Netflix's The Gentlemen. After the show ended, Kaya dated her Skins costar, Jack O'Connell for around a year before the two split - though they remain strong friends. Later in 2014, she began dating Benjamin Walker and the two later went on to have a son in 2016. Having grown up in the same area as her Skins costar, Daniel Kaluuya, Kaya made him the godfather of her first child. Kaya and Benjamin went on to have a second child in 2021, though their relationship wasn't to last, as they ended up splitting in February of this year. Sid Jenkins - Mike Bailey The loyal sidekick to protagonist Tony, Sid was known for his love of beanie hats, his sweet nature, and most importantly, pining after his best friend's girlfriend, Michelle. However actor Mike Bailey, who was 18 at the time of filming, decided acting wasn't for him after his second season on the show, despite its incredible success. His final appearance in a film was in 2013 in a coming of age film called, We Are The Freaks - though he left the industry shortly after. Now 36, Mike dedicates his time to coaching new young talent; working as a drama teacher in his native city of Bristol, where he lives with his wife. Speaking about moving on from acting, Mike told Radio Times back in 2017: 'I kind of thought 'what the f**k am I doing with my life?' and ended up getting in a conversation with the wife a couple of years ago and decided that those who can't act, teach. 'Ten years ago I never thought I'd still be talking about it, but [Sid] still does pop up every now and again. 'I mean, it's always kind of been there. It's kind of fizzled out over the years, but I mean, it was always a good thing.' Michelle Richardson - April Pearson Bristol native April Pearson is best known for her performance as Michelle in Skins, where she played the doting girlfriend of the high school heartthrob. April, 36, previously told The Sun that she managed to bag the part after turning up early to the audition and 'chatting teenage b****ks' to someone whom she later discovered was a director. After the first series ended, April continued to pursue a career in acting, taking on parts in God's Petty You, The Kindred, Doctors, Disconnected, and BBC comedy feeds, as well as a stint on Casualty. In 2014, she met film director Jamie Patterson while working on the set of a movie called Home for Christmas - and the pair got married three years later. However, she has since opened up about struggling to progress in her career beyond the small screen, finding that 'no one was really interested' in her following her Skins heyday. She told the publication she had had to taken on other jobs here and there to make ends meet and struggled to rely solely on her acting work. In 2022, the actress began recording her own podcast, Are You Michelle From Skins, where she discussed the highs and lows of being associated with a show with such a cultural imprint. The show ran for a number of episodes but came to a close in 2022. April is now a mother to an adorable little boy, who she regularly shares sweet snaps of on Instagram. There, she also documents the highs and lows of being a mother. In a 2023 post, she detailed struggling to sleep when her 13-months-old was 'waking every two hours and being fed back to sleep' and how a sleep support group helped her. 'I however, have taken months and months to let go. The anxiety I had around sleep had such a tight grip on every single aspect of my life,' she expressed. 'I woke every two hours for months, I had panic attacks at bedtime for months. I couldn't trust for months. But now, I can say I have moved forward.' Posh Kenneth - Daniel Kaluuya Breakout British acting star - and Oscar winner - Daniel Kaluuya was only 18 when he was already charming Skins viewers in his charismatic portrayal as 'Posh Kenneth'. Next came a flurry of performances, all of which continued to build up the actor's clout, including roles in Black Mirror and Black Panther. In 2017, he was the lead in Jordan Peele's horror flick Get Out, which earned him international acclaim. He then starred in the directors 2022 flick, Nope, before lending his voice to fan-favourite Hobart 'Hobie' Brown in the animated Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse movies. Jal Fazer - Larissa Wilson Violin-playing Jal battled tricky family dynamics for the duration of Skins, all while being the primary caretaker for her warring friends. Since the show ended, Larissa Wilson, now 35, had some success with her acting career and went on to have stints in a number of shows including, Holby City, Kingdom, The Sparticle Mystery, The Town, and Suspects. She was also involved in a short drama, We Move. Discussing the project on her social media, she said: 'In the last few years I've developed a multifaceted approach to my career, which has seen me gain accolades across the arts and science. 'However, my journey began with acting and it's always heartwarming to return here [...] Now that I've dipped my toes back in, I'm ready to explore further opportunities as they come. I like it here.' Though her successes haven't just been onscreen. The multitalented actress recently earned a Master of Science in neuroscience. While gaining the qualification, Larissa was selected to present her final project to a conference at the trauma Research Foundation annual conference, in Boston in the US. In an Instagram post from last year, she penned: 'As a trauma thriver, this felt like a full circle moment to be in a room whereby the recovery of trauma, is a central focus. 'As a student of neuroscience, this extra curricular opportunity highlights my unwavering commitment to my studies. 'This presentation happened prior to the completion of my academic endeavors, (which has led to a revision in my latest poster) however the findings and results are still valid.' She also routinely posts sweet pictures of her young daughter, and her experiences raising her as a single mother. Chris Miles - Joe Dempsie Before he was given the role of party boy Chris aged around 20, Joe Dempsie was on the verge of giving up on his career. But since then, Joe's career has gone from strength to strength, having now taken on a number of starring roles including Doctor Who, England '89 and more recently, Game of Thrones and The Fades. While he has taken on a steady stream of roles, Joe has previously admitted he had felt 'envy' towards some of his costars who had enjoyed more lustrous careers. 'I've realised that every role or job is memorable in different ways and for different reasons,' he told Tatler Asia in 2022. 'Chris, my character in Skins, is the role that turned acting from a hobby and a pastime into a career. He's also a character that I think has been the most enduring out of any I've played. He's one that people still want to talk to me about. 'Then there's Game of Thrones, which has been enjoyable for different reasons. There's the spectacle and the scale of it, but it never really felt like a real character study. I never found out enough about Gendry.' He added: 'Going forward, I just want to keep taking myself out of my comfort zone. The thing about acting is that you never feel complete... I'm going to keep trying to switch it up and keep trying to take roles that you haven't seen me play before.' His most recent role was in 2025, playing alongside Jodie Whittaker, Aimee Lou Wood and Robert Carlyle in the mini-series Toxic Town - about the Corby toxic waste case. Cassie Ainsworth - Hannah Murray The apple of Sid Jenkin's eye, Cassie was a character fraught with sadness, longing and incomprehensible struggle. However Hannah, now 35, reflects on her stint in Skins as the 'happiest time' in real life, as it helped her fall in love with acting. After her role in Skins, Hannah took a short break from acting to focus on her education, going on to complete an English Literature degree at Queen's College, Cambridge University. Speaking about the decision on Loose Women in 2019, she said: 'I just wanted to do it. I really loved literature and I wanted to take a bit of time out from the industry. I've got friends who are doctors and lawyers. I think an English degree really helps with acting.' Hannah then went on to follow in the footsteps of her co-star Joe Dempsie in scoring a role in the acclaimed HBO series, Game of Thrones. She also had roles in a number of other productions including Agatha Christie's Why Didn't They Ask Evans?, Womb, The Number's Station and God Help the Girl. In amongst her acting successes, Hannah has also endured her own struggles, much like her in her debut role as Cassie. Ahead of the release of her autobiography, Hannah revealed that she had been sectioned in 2017 as a result of her having been involved in a 'wellness cult'. Speaking about her upcoming memoir, Hannah admitted that she had realised now was the time to come clean about the ordeal. She said it was a 'deeply personal story that has lived inside me for many years and which it now feels vital to share'. The Bookseller reports that Hutchinson Heinemann is set to release the book in 2026. The publisher told the website: 'This is the story of the blurred line between what is real, and what is an illusion; what we must accept and what we wish to be true; between solid earth beneath your feet and a world where anything is possible if you only commit.' Maxxie Oliver - Mitch Hewer The only gay character in the first generation, Maxxie's sweet nature, striking blonde hair and impeccable dance moves. Shortly after finishing filming the show, Mitchell appeared on the cover of the March and October 2007 issues LGBT magazine Attitude - as part of a 'Gays on TV' feature that included stars from Hollyoaks, Coronation Street and Shameless. Now 35, the Bristol native went on to enjoy a fairly successful acting career, having starred in the music drama, Britannia High, and had stints on TV shows Extra Factor, This Morning, Richard and Judy's New Position and BBC comedy show, Never Mind the Buzzcocks. In 2009, he also appeared in the music video for Take That's Never Forget. Not his only appearance in a music video, Mitchell was also in the music video 'The Club' by Lisa Morgan. Mitchell is now in a relationship with his partner, Tash, with whom he welcomed a daughter, Aria Isabella, at the end of 2021. Ever the doting father, Mitchell now often shares posts of his daughter on his Instagram account, posting pictures of the pair enjoying cuddles and quality time together. Anwar Kharral - Dev Patel Then 16, Dev Patel had never done a day of acting when he arrived on set to film Skins in 2006 - having first applied for the role of Anwar after being encouraged to by his mother, who saw the listing in a newspaper. The actor had hit the ground running after closing his role on the E4 programme. After the show finished, he was immediately offered a role in Danny Boyle's critically acclaimed film, Slumdog Millionaire, arguably making him one of the most successful actors to come out of the hit series. The director's daughter had watched Skins and was such a fan that she encouraged her father to give him the career defining role. The film won Dev more than just a BAFTA. During filming, he met Frieda Pinto who he went on to date for nearly six years before calling it quits in 2014. He also added several Hollywood notches to his belt performing in hits including the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, HBO series The Newsroom, Lion, and The Personal History Of David Copperfield. He made his directing debut this year when he co-wrote, produced and directed the action thriller, Monkey Money, a production so successful that it landed him in Time's list of the 100 most influential people. Dev has now been with the Australian actress Tilda Cobham-Hervey since 2017. Abigail Stock - Georgina Moffat Georgina Moffat initially auditioned for Michelle was instead given the role of Abigail, who she claimed she based off of the 'posh psychos' she met while at boarding school. Georgina went on to study art history at UCL bur switched to a focus on magic production and composition after the show ended. Snagging herself a recording contract, Georgina then went on to pursue a career in music where she became a successful singer-songwriter, topping the dance charts with Sail With Me in 2018. She even went on to assist in producing songs for Dido, Keane and Japanese Pop stars. Speaking to The Sun in 2022, the singer insisted she didn't regret changing her focus to music and that working in Skins had helped her to realise her true dreams. As well as a lustrous career, Georgina has spent her life jet setting to all parts of the world. She has previously lived in LA, London, Australia and Tokyo. Speaking to The Sun in 2022, the now 35-year-old claimed she never date people who were her age because she was concerned that people were only after her because she was famous. 'Playing the only villain in the show was difficult,' Georgina, added. 'A lot of fans didn't like what Abigail was doing and thought she was really a b***h.' She told the publication that she felt as though her identity was been 'erased' and that people saw her differently because of the love-rival role she played in the show. Katie Fitch - Megan Prescott Katie was the chaotic half the Fitch twins - known for her aggressive nature and at times frustrating decisions. Playing alongside her real-life sister Kathryn, Megan Prescott, now 34, was already in the industry after getting her first role on BBC soap opera Doctors - but burst onto the spotlight after the E4 show aired. While she has continued to pursue acting work, Megan - who is originally from London - has also recently revealed how she first began using OnlyFans - which she used to fund her Edinburgh Fringe Festival show last year. The actress explained how she has been using the X-rated platform since 2020, after her boss initially refused to furlough her from her bar job. Speaking to The Sun, Megan spoke about how she is stripping off in her one-woman show, Really Good Exposure, where she will be full-frontal during one scene. Megan said that funding the show is 'very expensive' so she has been 'selling nude photos to a few subscribers because you shouldn't be ashamed of being naked.' When the pandemic hit, Megan was working in a distillery in London on a zero-hour contract and her manager 'refused to furlough her for a while'. She explained that with only around £300 in the bank she needed to find a way to pay her rent, when her friend Haven - who co-hosts the podcast Strippers In The Attic - suggested OnlyFans as a way of earning an income. She continued: 'She said to me, 'Trust me, there are already men that are looking at your Instagram and thinking those kinds of thoughts. You're leaving money on the table,' and she was right.' Megan claimed that joining the site changed her life and she branded it the best thing she has ever done, earning her much more than her acting roles. Megan previously revealed she will sell her 'full frontal, head-to-toe naked' photos on the X-rated subscription site as the play challenges stigma faced by sex workers. Megan, who pursued a bodybuilding career in 2016, is a vocal advocate for sex worker rights and first signed up to OnlyFans during the pandemic to enable her acting, writing, and directing career to continue. Only 10 of this limited-edition nude snap will be sold on the platform to raise money. Megan's one-woman show is partially inspired by her own personal experience of child stardom. The play follows the story of Molly Thomas, a former child star whose fame peaked in her teens; audiences will first meet her later down the line as she realises her career has never matched the dizzying heights of her initial fame. In 2023, Megan also revealed that she had been diagnosed with autism four years ago. Emily Fitch - Kathryn Prescott She has continued to star across a myriad of TV shows, including Finding Carter and, most recently, New Amsterdam Kathryn played the more demure, shy twin Emily in Skins - after also getting her start on BBC's Doctors, alongside her sister. She has continued to star across a myriad of TV shows, including Finding Carter and, most recently, New Amsterdam. In 2021, the actress was left in a critical condition after being hit by a cement truck while crossing a road in New York. She was rushed to hospital following a crash, which had been revealed by her twin sister Megan on Instagram, and endured a broken pelvis, legs, foot and hand. Kathryn, who had to go to ICU at a New York Hospital was 'incredibly lucky to be alive'. Megan pointed out that, although her sister would be taken care of by medical professionals, her mobility could have been severely affected long-term. She wrote Kathryn 'narrowly avoided paralysis. The doctors are hopeful that she will make a full recovery but this will only be possible with the correct care right now.' She also pointed out her sister is currently 'alone in New York with no family members'.

Jelly Roll shows off weight loss as he guest hosts Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Jelly Roll displayed his slimmer figure when he guest hosted Jimmy Kimmel Live! for two nights this week. The star, 40, filled in for the late-night talk show host and debuted his slimmest look yet after losing 200lb. He wore all black for the gig, adding a gold chain to his look. Jelly poked fun at himself on Thursday's episode, treating fans to a parody song made up of insults hurled at him on the Internet. He said: 'I've never been the one to let my haters get me down. So tonight I'm going to debut my brand new single, and this entire song is going to be made up of comments that people have written about me online. Y'all want to hear it?' Some of the digs that made up the song included: 'Being forced to listen to Jelly Roll against my will and it sucks,' 'I used to hate Jelly Roll. I still do,' and 'Jelly Roll looks like a meth addict grabbed a microphone.' The good-humored entertained also quoted a social media snub that said, 'Jelly Roll slimmed the f*** up, lookin' more like a Fruit Roll-Up.' 'I wanna be on the cover of Men's Health by March of 2026. That's my new goal,' he announced five months ago. 'I wanna have one of the biggest transformations.' He added that he was 'so glad' to be having the discussion in front of an audience. 'I did this publicly for a reason. I wanna be honest about my struggles with it with people,' he noted. The musician explained about body image and fame: 'I think that people that become as big as I became, when they lose the weight, they're kind of ashamed. 'They're so ashamed that they go hide and lose the weight, and then they come back out [and] they don't really know how to interact with the world looking different or feeling different, and they kinda gotta find their whole new way. 'I wanted to lose it in front of everybody. I wanted to talk about it.' View this post on Instagram A post shared by Jelly Roll (@jellyroll615) Jelly added about losing weight in the spotlight: 'I wanna bring people along with me…I didn't become successful because of my weight. I became successful in spite of it.' He also acknowledged, 'I somehow managed to be this successful with carrying 550 pounds. That's insane.'
