Although this should’ve been taken care of during the design of the site, the more fun way to view the pics is to scroll to the bottom of the page, and then slowly work your way up. That way you can try and guess who is pictured before you read the name (I didn’t do too good…maybe 50%). ---

I have to question the Jennifer Love Hewitt picture. Hewitt was an established teen actress. She was born in 1979 so she presumedly graduated around 1997. Coincidentally, she played a high school senior in 1997 in _I Know What You Did Last Summer_. She looked like [this](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v515/bloodylamer/bastardly-photos/0505/album108/jennifer-love-10100701.jpg) at the movie’s premiere. This was [her](http://www.jenniferlovehewitt.es/jlh/archivos_usuarios/bio_house_arrest.jpg) in _House Arrest_ in 1996. This was her first Maxim [cover](http://images1.fanpop.com/images/image_uploads/Jennifer-Maxim-1999-jennifer-love-hewitt-1180676_559_728.jpg), in 1999. And we’re supposed to accept that she looked like [this](http://yepyep.gibbs12.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/jenniferlovehewitt.jpg) around this same time? ---

Looks like the same girl to me. Same chin, nose, and cheeks. Maybe her eyes look different due to a goofy smile. ---

> [@](#): > > Looks like the same girl to me. > Same chin, nose, and cheeks. Maybe her eyes look different due to a goofy smile. I’m not really disputing that the picture is Hewitt. I just don’t believe that the picture represents the way she generally looked in the late nineties - she was not a dorky looking adolescent. ---

Actually, Fergie’s picture made me go wtf. I had no idea she used to look so normal. And I don’t know who Lil Jon is, but his photo reminds me of Kermit the Frog. ---

The site is very badly coded, it looks like. I can see pics but no text explaining who they are meant to be. ---

> [@Oslo\_Ostragoth](#): > > Another linky no worky for me. This makes more sense, since it’s from the same site as the OP. I have the same problem on one of my computers, but not another. Since they both use the same Internet connection, the only difference I can come up with is that one does not use the Google DNS server. The IP must have not propogated to the other source. A way to get around it is to go to [this link](http://www.ninjacloak.com/index.php/1010110A/8ee18180e0cfb7292c00e26138be30b5bdd4710f33215d88f342f72d080526ea8e88a3e1fc5e9bbd09ed950d1bdcbb85f3a94dd08c5e1572f33605a7c116359), or, if that doesn’t work copy the URL in the first post, and paste it into [http://www.ninjacloak.com/](http://www.ninjacloak.com/). The picture you missed above is, of course, the one offered of Ms. Hewitt. ---

Axl Rose (aka Bill Bailey) looks like a kid I went to jr high with. He also looks baked out of his mind in that pic. Nice mullet on Eminem. ---
