If you miss the days of Tiger Beat and all the hotties from Saved by the Bell, check out where all your crushes are now!

When I was a kid, I never told anyone my crushes. Not even celebrities. I liked to keep my love life private. No one needed to know that I spent most of my 1st grade journal time planning my wedding to Jonathan Taylor Thomas. But I could not hide my fury when I found out that JTT was rumored to be dating Christina Ricci (via Tiger Beat, obvi). I was furious he would betray me like that, and even vowed to boycott Home Improvement (which lasted about a week.) In retrospect, I'm glad things didn't work out. My husband turned out to be alot cuter than Jonathan, so as far as I'm concerned, I dodged a bullet there. Check out the list below to see how he, and all our other 90's crushes turned out!

 

JONATHAN TAYLOR THOMAS (AKA JTT)

THEN:

JTT starred as middle child Randy Taylor alongside Tim Allen in Home Improvement. He went on to star in films like The Lion King (voice of young Simba, Adventures of  Pinocchio, and Wild America (which I rented 345235 times from Blockbuster).

TIFFANI-AMBER THIESSEN

THEN: 

For many men, including my husband, Kelly Kapowski was their first love. If you were a girl, you probably wanted to be her (or at least have her killer style). No wonder Zack and Slater always fought over her!

NOW

After saying good bye to Bayside and 90210, Tiffani dropped Amber from her name, got married, and had a baby. She now stars on USA's White Collar and lends her voice to Jake and the Neverland Pirates.

NOW:

Umm in case you've been living under a rock, he's one of the biggest movie stars ever, recently starring in films like The Great Gatsby, Django Unchained, and The Wolf of Wall Street to name a few. And he's still just as attractive.

DEVON SAWA

THEN:

I'm pretty sure my parents suspected Devon Sawa was one of my celebrity crushes when I rented the movie Little Giants every single Friday night. He also made my heart go pitter patter in Casper and Wild America.

NOW:

Sawa plays a regular role on the CW series Nikita. He also starred in Final Destination 5 in 2011. He is also much less attractive as an adult.

MARIO LOPEZ

THEN:

For those who didn't like clean cut Zack, there was bad boy AC Slater. (I personally, was always torn between the two.)

SARAH MICHELLE GELLAR

THEN:

I'm just now realizing that if you wanted to be a star in the 90's, you needed three names. Anyway, all my guy friends watched Buffy the Vampire Slayer just because they were in love with SMG. I preferred her work in teen movies alongside bf Freddie Prinze Jr.

NOW:

SMG starred in a string of films after Buffy ended. She also ended up marrying Freddie Prinze Jr! Gellar now stars in the new tv comedy, The Crazy Ones, alongside Robin Williams.

JOHN STAMOS:

THEN:

Stamos stole our hearts as bad boy Uncle Jesse on Full House. He was definitely the first older man I crushed on as a kid.
