Young Love: Our Celeb Crushes From Back in the Day That Fell Off…Hard

December 1st, 2011 - By MN Editor

"Bobby Brown"

How bad does it suck to have crushed on someone hard only to see them years later looking more busted than a crusty truck on the side of the road?

Happens all the time! Not only does it happen with everyday people we went to school with, worked with or lived around, but it definitely happens with our celebrity crushes (oh, MJ…). One minute a star can look so fine, be so talented, or so funny that you swoon over their posters, then the next, they can end up looking like Humpty Dumpty after the great fall. The ladies around here have all had us some Slick Rick-ish “Teenage Love” moments with men we knew we would never get our hands on, but now that they’re older, that might have been a good thing…

    Chris Tucker still the man,
    BUT BOBBY BROWN LOOK CRAZY AS HELL!

  • Tam0115trina

    DeVante looks like a lighter skinned Dave Chappelle right here…WOW : {

  • Tam0115trina

    Yeah, Jason Weaver, really was so adorable.

  • Heyahiya

    Bobby Brown was fine as hell when Don’t Be Cruel came out in 1988 and had fallen off by the time he released Bobby in 1992.  I swear that man slipped so fast, he left skidmarks. 

  • Ramon Suarez

    Three words for Bobby: 

    CRACK.
    IS.
    WHACK.

    That is all…

    Oh D’Angelo, WTF happened to you?

  • Kashbmaryd

    Ok I can see Tevin Campbell and even Devante but Vince Vaughn? He’s still straight. He is still big in hollywood so I don’t see how he fell off.

  • Msmykimoto2u

    And when they get older I see R.Kelly, Tyrese, Chris Brown, Terrence Howard and Trey Songz following in their footsteps.

  • Msmykimoto2u

    Geez, black ppl dont usually change that much. Are yall sure thats Tevin Cambell?

  • Tiyonda1218

    OMG! Devante looks like a light skinned ‘Dave Chapelle in this pic!”. I used to luv Dalvin back in the day, even though he didn’t much… 90s R&B was the truth, I miss it…

    • Tiyonda1218

      And don’t forget Keith Sweat, Joe, Al B Sure, & Heavy D was my first ‘big boy’ crush! But right now, Idris Elba, Michael Jai White, Tyrese & Paul Walker (yeah, white boy from ‘Takers’) are on top of my list..If hubby gives a free pass! :-)

    Child, I never thought a time would come when I would say “What the hell did Angie Stone see in D’Angelo!?” Two words, A and Mess!

    • Camera

      LMAO! I use to say what does Deangelo see in Angie Stone and now I say What did Angie Stone see in that man? Wow, he truly is the definition of a HAM!

  • NikkitaMichelle

    Most of these brothers fell off because of drug use.  The others started looking old and fat because they aren’t  working as much so there’s no need to keep in shape.  Chris could get it back he just looks older with the added weight.  He could drop a quick 30 and be fine again.  It’s still there BABY.

    LOL! I thought I was the only one who had noticed Vince Vaughn! But dang! I would NEVER have recognised D’Angelo!

    You know who else has been fallin’ off. Pharrell. He had just the most beautiful angelic voice and face. Now everything looks sunk in. Too much booger sugar.

    Girl I’m only 23 so i didn’t understand the hype about Bobby Brown but one day I came across that “Every Little Step” video and I really shouldn’t be lusting but…i about to go watch that again…Bobby could’ve got it with the blinds up!

  • Jean_Harlow

    I used to crush on Tevin back in the day, but now he looks like Dave Chappelle’s twin, but not in a bad way.
