          I believe Lark Voorhies had some serious drug problems...

          When I read the "Game of Thrones" books, I always pictured Rider Strong (Sean from "Boy Meets World") as Jon Snow. He's a little too old now, but he still looks like he could have pulled it off...

            On May 30, 2006, Voorhies filed a lawsuit against The National Enquirer for libel over an article that included claims she had a drug problem.

                Interesting to know Benny “The Jet” Rodriguez (Mike Vitar) from “The Sandlot is now a full-time firefighter, good for him.

                    Vorhies was a cutie...she now looks hideous.

                    Punky Brewster had breast reduction, what a crying shame, lol.

                    Pink Ranger Amy Jo Johnson on the other hand looks great.

                    That Vega chick is only 24 years old...not much of a stretch there.

                      I wouldn't think the listmakers would either.

                      It's a list of childhood crushes (presumably from if you were a child in the 80's/mid-90's).

                        Topanga from "Boy Meets World" looks almost exactly the same, which is good since they are now filming a new follow-up series "Girl Meets World", about her and Cory's daughter (with Ben "Cory" Savage as well).

                            Charlie Korsmo was left off the list?! He's the little kid from "Hook" among other movies in that era. Talk about an impressive career after acting! Look him up

                            Three of my childhood crushes (Tiffani Thiessen, Soleil Freye and Winnie cooper) all made the list, and frankly look better now than they did back then! If they would have added Carla Gugino I would have been quite pleased!
