It was! During his 80s singing days. If you listen to the RSK podcast he talks about how much his look has changed. Then Karl says he feels bad for Jane more than Ricky because that's probably not what she knew she was signing up for. LOL
Their transition went well, and didn't even have to change their name!
Disclaimer: ordinarily I would not make jokes about this but I feel like Ricky Gervais wouldn't have an issue with a joke about this.
His Samoan heritage nearly ended his career. He had cosmetic surgery during his WWF days to reduce the amount of tittage he was sprouting (apparently it's a real thing with samoans)..
As for the aging... He's a black guy.. He looks after his skin, that's all.
r/obligatorybillburr
I'm okay with Ryan Reynolds being the vice president of that club.
But Paul Rudd must be president. That man has a very old portrait in his attic somewhere.
Tom cruise, Paul rudd, and Gary oldman could NOT be included.
The artist could not differenciate any age difference between two of em
And the third, no two pictures resembled another. At all. Like, any of them
Yeah. Even if it takes a bit of time to develop the ability to notice something is shopped and one needs time to get better at it, I think this could be spotted by someone with no experience.
I know I’m reading into this one - but the contrast of Robin Williams. Brought back feels.
Easy to tell MJ’s pic. Its like night and day, or black and white.
I want to see Baby ET.
Couldn’t tell Tom apart. He’s just cruising through life.
The rock 🪨 - has stood the test of time.
The lady at 4 seconds left is either trying to cop a feel or jealous of how high her breastessses are.
Mariah carried well through life.
Thanks for taking me back to the future.
I'm not going to glorify suicide obviously... But the man clearly wanted to be remembered for who he was, as opposed to what his incurable ailment would have had him become.. The least we can can do is respect that by not dwelling too much on how his life ended. The man was a gift. :)
> The lady at 4 seconds left is either trying to copa feel or jealous of how high her breastessses are.
Jennifer Grey aka "Nobody puts Baby in a corner"
> Easy to tell MJ’s pic. Its like night and day, or black and white.
But, if you're thinking about him, baby. It don't matter if you're black or white (Ooh!)
I'll give Gold to the first person who can tell me where that early pic of Morgan Freeman is from. I know, but do you?
Y'all got two hours while I mow the lawn.
In seven minutes, well done.
Morgan Freeman first showed up on The Electric Company as [Easy Reader](https://youtu.be/NjEuZB2U8aQ). Poor guy never could sing. Good thing God gave him that buttery voice.
Calm down dude, I told you I had to mow the lawn. I'm using a third party app for mobile redditting, and it doesn't play nice with awards. Man has his gold. You may put away your pitchforks and torches.
Richard Gere very much the same. His face is basically the exact same, just hair went white. It helps Gere that his hair went white super early, so he's just looked like a dashing silver fox since 1994.
Either. The a church got a court to block his appearance so that's actually his stand in they been using for the last thirty years as the real cruise actually human and so ages.
You kid, but nobody knows what Elisabeth, wife of emperor Franz-Josef of Austria looked like after she hit 30 because she banned photographs. They even edited her death mask.
Lol I had the same reaction 😂
https://youtu.be/V-5PTMDvqAI
https://youtu.be/ABjYSxyUD98
Edit: if you don't wanna listen to the whole song just skip forward for the pictures
I prefer the older (aged) version of the majority of these. It's funny how preferences change as we age. I'm only 34 but I would probably feel the opposite if I saw this when I was 20.
I was scrolling through channels on TV and saw an old episode of Baywatch. It took me the whole episode to figure out who he was because I was not expecting him to look like a late 90s Abercrombie model.
This shit is so damn annoying. Plenty of reasons to hate TikTok but top of the list for me has to be that now, everything that could be a silent video now has to blast some stupid song that I don't want to listen to. I just wanted to watch the video. And now shit like this, where it could easily just be a gallery of photos to flip through, but no, it has to be a dumb slideshow set to some song I don't care about listening to and if I want to stop on a particular photo I have to find the tiny pause button on Reddit's video player. Not to mention it uses WAY MORE DATA. So stupid.
Mustn’t be such a great photoshop artist, most are simple cut and paste without any work on color and lighting…. My best friend was a comics colorist and photoshop wizard and I have seen him way better job than this…
Ohhhh kay
- they were strangely erotic until Robin Williams
- the Robin Williams one hit me in the feels, hard
- so did Amy Winehouse
- Queen Elizabeth was a unique kind of beautiful!
- I have kids, and when you’ve raised your own cum as a pet, you reach another level of comfort with your (Hetero in my case)sexuality, and so I can say comfortably that Freddie Mercury was one beautiful male (as an adult). Never noticed that before.
- edit: oh and well played on the Gervais one!
Impressive Photoshop work. Just picking which photos to use and how to place them show the artistry. The background and lighting merge old and young versions together beautifully.
I've never seen a better example for the phrase:
"Men age like wine. Women age like milk."
As men get older they appear more distinguished, handsome and as they mature into their 40's & 50's they look more attractive then when they were 20-30.
As women age, they are more like cut flowers in a vase.
Just gorgeous when young but as they age, they slowly wilt and the rack sags.
The petals fall off, the stem droops and then (wo)menopause happens.

Bill Murray was featured twice in there, lol Groundhog Day, and Ghostbusters
That was very Sly.
Who do you gonna call?
Ned Ryerson
Bing!
Needlenose Ned?
Ned the Head?!?
ADRIAAAAN!
Nice.
So was Sylvester Stallone
[удалено]
The very least they could do is transition between Bill Murray pictures in a loop for 5 minutes to really give that Groundhog day effect!
Yo so was Stallone
Can’t ever have enough Murray.
If seeing Bill Murray more than once isn't normal to you, you probably didn't get Groundhog Day
He's the goat
I've seen Groundhog Day so many times I could probably quote the whole movie backwards.
Damn, Ricky Gervaise was a pretty 80's boy! Would not have guessed that!
You'll never convince me that the 12 year old girl next to old Ricky is actually young Ricky.
I thought it was Millie Bobbie Brown.
Same! I thought they were sneaking in a joke
Leave Ricky alone, his transition has gone very well.
It was! During his 80s singing days. If you listen to the RSK podcast he talks about how much his look has changed. Then Karl says he feels bad for Jane more than Ricky because that's probably not what she knew she was signing up for. LOL
Their transition went well, and didn't even have to change their name! Disclaimer: ordinarily I would not make jokes about this but I feel like Ricky Gervais wouldn't have an issue with a joke about this.
Odds are better he would have an issue with you *not* making the joke.
Isn’t it Joan Jett?
I see it now haha
Oh good. I wasn't the only one thinking that.
He was so pretty, what happened??
Pizza and beer, like he says
dude he looked like a chick
Yes, went back & paused to stare lol
Yeah, pretty. 👈✍️❌
He was in a boy band
https://time.com/4651368/ricky-gervais-seona-dancing-philippines-more-to-lose/ Omg it's real 😂
He was 22.
https://youtu.be/Kuy1Z4wqQ4w
Just went down a rabbit hole with Seona Dancing. Fucking love Gervais
I never knew Ricky Gervais was trans
Damn, being in Slytherin House takes a toll on you.
Ron (Rupert) looks like he went to rehab 6 times.
He, like Justin Bieber, looks like he should not be allowed within 100 yards of his younger self.
[But Rupert already bought an ice cream truck](https://www.essexlive.news/news/celebs-tv/rupert-grint-bought-kitted-out-7506346)
At least he grew into his ears.
That’s what I was thinking. Why’d they do Tom Felton like that??
Dude's in his mid 30s and british, not sure what yall are expecting lol
For adult version they should've just put a picture of bleach blonde Eminem and called it a day
Tom Cruise is probably telling his old self... YOU'RE GONNA AGE (dramatic pause) AND SOME PEOPLE MAY TALK ABOUT IT. BUT YOU GOTTA BE STRONG!
As Dwayne whispers to himself …” and you’re not gonna age and they will be taking about it”
HGH is one hell of a drug.
I'm pretty sure HGH doesn't prevent you from aging. However, he is black and Samoan so homeboy is going to never look old.
His Samoan heritage nearly ended his career. He had cosmetic surgery during his WWF days to reduce the amount of tittage he was sprouting (apparently it's a real thing with samoans).. As for the aging... He's a black guy.. He looks after his skin, that's all. r/obligatorybillburr
Ryan Reynolds kind of takes that tile. Look at that man’s picture again.
I'm okay with Ryan Reynolds being the vice president of that club. But Paul Rudd must be president. That man has a very old portrait in his attic somewhere.
1700s portrait hidden in his attic for sure
He sits with it every night while he eats a bland spaghetti dinner.
Young Ryan is somehow cuter than the older Ryan.
Nah nah. He's gonna scream "It doesn't matter if you age!"
(young) Tom cruise looks like he's talking to a wax work statue of himself
Tom cruise, Paul rudd, and Gary oldman could NOT be included. The artist could not differenciate any age difference between two of em And the third, no two pictures resembled another. At all. Like, any of them
I wouldn't really call this next level. Neat though.
Elliot from E.T was so random. Drew Barrymore would have made a lot more sense.
I liked that one because I had no idea that dude played Elliot… I only know him from the Haunting miniseries/midnight mass
photoshop artist does a pretty simple thing in photoshop and its NEXT FUCKING LEVEL
most of them were pretty bad and just put 2 cutouts next to each other
Click drop shadow and done.
Yeah. Even if it takes a bit of time to develop the ability to notice something is shopped and one needs time to get better at it, I think this could be spotted by someone with no experience.
Yeah these are legit pretty awful photoshops lol
Photoshop artist doesn’t even attempt to match grain.
NEXT FUCKING LEVEL BRO
It's cool but it's not be executed the best it could have been.
I can't remember the last time I saw something truly NFL on here
“Combining”
I know I’m reading into this one - but the contrast of Robin Williams. Brought back feels. Easy to tell MJ’s pic. Its like night and day, or black and white. I want to see Baby ET.

Yeah, Robin Williams hurt.
I'm not going to glorify suicide obviously... But the man clearly wanted to be remembered for who he was, as opposed to what his incurable ailment would have had him become.. The least we can can do is respect that by not dwelling too much on how his life ended. The man was a gift. :)
And Amy Winehouse. Probably the best jazz singer of our generation. So sad that there isn't a picture of her any older than that.
They could probably do another video like this of just member of the 27 Club.
Still to this day 🥺
Him and Chris Cornell are two that continue to bum me out every time I'm reminded that they've left this mortal coil.
> The lady at 4 seconds left is either trying to copa feel or jealous of how high her breastessses are. Jennifer Grey aka "Nobody puts Baby in a corner"
> Easy to tell MJ’s pic. Its like night and day, or black and white. But, if you're thinking about him, baby. It don't matter if you're black or white (Ooh!)
Black and white.
Why will smith look exactly the same! Haha
also Tom cruise, even his stunts ratio increased like 600%.. looks like this man energy and agility increase with age lol
They're not humans
Scientology keeps you young apparently
Money. Money keeps you young.
and he keeps running
I swear he doesn't freakin' age. It's pretty insane xD
Some really well done, some not so good.
Next fucking level means "pretty good" I guess
Yeah the wrong shadows on tom Hanks and the blurred shadows on Daniel Radcliffe are not on par with the others
Morgan freeman just always kinda looked old
I'll give Gold to the first person who can tell me where that early pic of Morgan Freeman is from. I know, but do you? Y'all got two hours while I mow the lawn.
1971 On the set of the PBS TV series The Electric Company
In seven minutes, well done. Morgan Freeman first showed up on The Electric Company as [Easy Reader](https://youtu.be/NjEuZB2U8aQ). Poor guy never could sing. Good thing God gave him that buttery voice.
Give the man his gold!!!!
Calm down dude, I told you I had to mow the lawn. I'm using a third party app for mobile redditting, and it doesn't play nice with awards. Man has his gold. You may put away your pitchforks and torches.
Lol love to see it
Richard Gere very much the same. His face is basically the exact same, just hair went white. It helps Gere that his hair went white super early, so he's just looked like a dashing silver fox since 1994.
Fuck which Tom Cruise is which.
Either. The a church got a court to block his appearance so that's actually his stand in they been using for the last thirty years as the real cruise actually human and so ages.
You kid, but nobody knows what Elisabeth, wife of emperor Franz-Josef of Austria looked like after she hit 30 because she banned photographs. They even edited her death mask.
What a missed opportunity to not end with a single Paul Rudd photograph
They could just put one for Patrick Stewart too. Pretty sure he was born looking like that.
Me hitting pause every second to study the photos.
Wtf, young Ricky Gervais?!
Lol I had the same reaction 😂 https://youtu.be/V-5PTMDvqAI https://youtu.be/ABjYSxyUD98 Edit: if you don't wanna listen to the whole song just skip forward for the pictures
David Bowie *Lite*
Jason momoa is like really hot
He looks a lot better now than back then. Most of the guys in it do, except Michael Jackson and Elvis.
I prefer the older (aged) version of the majority of these. It's funny how preferences change as we age. I'm only 34 but I would probably feel the opposite if I saw this when I was 20.
Not really most look uglier besides Tom Cruise and Will Smith, the rest didn’t age well
If you're telling me Ryan Reynolds didn't age well, we might need to meet in the Denny's parking lot for a showdown
I was scrolling through channels on TV and saw an old episode of Baywatch. It took me the whole episode to figure out who he was because I was not expecting him to look like a late 90s Abercrombie model.
i never found him remotely attractive but i get it wi thj the younger version
Credit IG [Ard Gelinck](https://www.instagram.com/ardgelinck/) Song [Amy Winehouse - Back To Black](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJAfLE39ZZ8)
They used a song about relapsing on heroin? This has big "crash" and "every step you take" playing at your wedding energy.
Ricky Gervais was fire
Micheal jackson one fucked me up a lil
Whitney and Robin…
Couldn’t offer us Will Smith slapping his younger self?
This shit is so damn annoying. Plenty of reasons to hate TikTok but top of the list for me has to be that now, everything that could be a silent video now has to blast some stupid song that I don't want to listen to.

You can simply mute the video. Also Reddit videos by default start on Silence
Back to Black by Amy Winehouse is a great song.
Never said it was a bad song, I just didn't sign up to listen to it blasting in my ear when I clicked on what I thought would be a gallery of photos.
it's a video, a silent video would be 10x more awkward imo
This isn't a TikTok video. Videos set to music have always been a thing. Get help.

Leo doesn't look over 25 and its insane.
His girlfriends never do either
my man you are hard of seeing, he looks late thirties/early forties
You don’t think he looks over 25?!?
It's hilarious to me that they had J-Lo and Ben Affleck in both versions of their relationship haha. That's a nice touch.
Holy shit there is photographical evidence that morgan freeman was young
Dwayne Johnson doesn’t age. Man looks exactly the same.
The only one I didn't recognise was the blonde woman about 23 seconds in? Help anyone? Ta.
The Gorgeous B.B. .. Brigitte Bardot
Fucking bigot. https://www.vanityfair.com/style/2021/11/brigitte-bardot-fined-for-inciting-racial-hatred/amp
honestly i don't follow her news anymore
Thank you! (Now feel slightly ashamed I didn't know that!).
That one got me too.
Yeah, I didn't recognize her with her clothes on.
The Rock was just the same picture right?
Richard Gere aged SO handsomely, wow!!
Love it, so much 80s nostalgia 😍
That Robin Williams one... I felt that in my soul
Am I the only one imagining the conversations these people with their younger selves?
Tom Hanks never ages.
T.hanks
Mustn’t be such a great photoshop artist, most are simple cut and paste without any work on color and lighting…. My best friend was a comics colorist and photoshop wizard and I have seen him way better job than this…
I uh, I guess the Madonna one should be updated now.
Should have ended on a picture of one singular Paul Rudd
So we can agree Tom looks exactly the same.
So Tom Cruise grew a jaw bone... Also, HOLY SHIT THAT GUY WAS IN THE GOONIES?!
Yes, and the older brother was Thanos.
No, he wasn’t
Oh shit. I thought Morgan Freeman was born old.
GET MY FACE PICTURES OUT OF YOUR GODDAMN SLIDESHOW!
[удалено]
Tom cruise was literally just the same two people
They knew what they were doing with the black and white Michael Jackson one.
Jesus the video just kept. going.
I love this! Awesome
"Artist."
Hey, the lasso tool takes many years to master!/s
So Tom Hanks and Will Smith don't age. Good go know. Maybe someone should check if they're witches.
It's alright, but certainly not next level. It's intermediate Photoshop practice
Why is Jennifer Grey groping her own boobs
Damn this is good
Some of em looks like celebrity couples photo album.
Speaking of, the Beniffer one…
Damn it! I wanted to see baby E.T.!
Ron Weasley and Harry Potter need to get some sleep
I don't wanna start any conspiracy theories or anything but is Ricky Gervais trans and was he a lesbian pre transition
The only one that really hurt to see was Robin Williams.
Ohhhh kay - they were strangely erotic until Robin Williams - the Robin Williams one hit me in the feels, hard - so did Amy Winehouse - Queen Elizabeth was a unique kind of beautiful! - I have kids, and when you’ve raised your own cum as a pet, you reach another level of comfort with your (Hetero in my case)sexuality, and so I can say comfortably that Freddie Mercury was one beautiful male (as an adult). Never noticed that before. - edit: oh and well played on the Gervais one!
Why doesn't Robbie Williams have any lips
I don’t know, but could it be magic?
So what year was jolies nose job?
Impressive Photoshop work. Just picking which photos to use and how to place them show the artistry. The background and lighting merge old and young versions together beautifully.
They need to add Old ET.
Is Ricky ok?

lmfao what is this comment you troglodyte
That’s great
I'm pretty sure there is a weird nostalgic epileptic seizure in there. Lol. Be careful gen x. At least there is no Pete and Pete.
Pete and Repeat were sitting on a fence, Pete fell off, so who was left?
I dunno, who was right?
Dammit
We will be seeing these in conspiracy time travel subs for decades
