US Weekly cover retrospective

An US Weekly photo retrospective?  Yes, please!  ::Rubs hands gleefully::   Let’s meander down memory lane, shall we? 

Jennifer Aniston’s attractive no matter how you (ahem) slice it, but this 90’s poet-shirt monstrosity does no favors.  And remember when baring your belly-button was considered chic?

Before Angelina Jolie earned her Sainthood, slimmed her nose and trimmed her lips.  Hot, but in a dangerous, “I will sleep with you and then disembowl you kind of way.”

So that’s what Nicole Kidman looks like when you can see expression in her face!

Who thought these brassy blonde highlights were a good idea on Courteney Cox’s beautiful dark hair?  So wrong!

It’s easy to forget that Justin Timberlake suffered through a decade of bad-hair days before becoming a legitimate sex-symbol.

I miss you, Britney.  I miss you a lot.  Remember Crossroads?  “I’m a Slave 4 U”?  When you said you were a virgin, and some people actually believed you?  Those were the days.

Prince William essentially looks the same now as he did seven years ago…um, he simply had hair then.

    What’s really sad is that I think I’ve owned every issue in this post. I subscribed back when it was just “Us”…and I still have that Jennifer Aniston issue because there’s a two-page spread of Ewan McGregor in it. Yeesh.

    Love this post! It’s hard to believe the mag has been around so long!

    I agree…I did have every one of these issues! And this post is making me miss the 90s!

    I bought the Royals copy (specifically for The Royals), and was fascinated with how beautiful Charlotte was/is, and from such a young age! Where was her awkward stage? I demand to know!
