Disney Stars Then and Now Pics Break Millennials' Brains

Seeing these pictures of Disney stars as they were in the 1990s, then how they look today, is a real trip. This collection of some of your favorites from that decade was gathered together. Thanks to the Instagram account “Only Nineties Kids Know,” we have some friendly faces saying hi to us.

Hilary Duff

We start out by taking a look at Hilary Duff, who became famous thanks to Lizzie McGuire. Duff said in an interview that she was 13 years old when the series started. But Duff didn’t want to keep going down the acting rabbit hole and switched to music. She finds herself, though, among the Disney stars.

Ryan Merriman

Ryan Merriman played Kyle Johnson in the Disney movie, Luck of the Irish. But this movie came out in 2001, so technically it should not be in this batch of photos. In the 1990s, though, Merriman appeared in the TV series The Mommies and The Pretender. He also appeared in another feature film in 1999 titled Deep End of the Ocean.
