Jennifer Grey, co star in "Dirty Dancing", she had a messed up rhinoplasty, went into oblivian.
Yeah. I thought Jennifer Grey was prettier after the nosejob. But I couldn't tell she was Jennifer Grey, lol.

Jim carrey needs to take time away from movie for a while. He tried to get away from the spastic comedy he started his career with but people didn't buy him in those (though for the record i think the truman show is an amazing move). He needs to take a few years, sit back, and then get into the more serious stuff, kind of like bill murray did.

What about billy crystal? I know he just had a movie come out but i can't remember the last movie he had before that one. Same with martin short. When is the last time you saw him in a movie?

Back in the early 90s anna chlumsky was the next big thing in my girl and my girl 2. Then i think she did some movie called golddiggers with christina ricci, another 90s child star that has fallen away somewhere. Someone mentioned thora birch which i would agree with. I was in love with her! Speaking of thora birch and christina ricci, they were in now and then with gaby hoffman, who was also in field of dreams, uncle buck, and volcano and then disappeared.

Freddie prinze, jr was in several movies and then scooby doo hit and nobody cared anymore.

all this and yet david spade is still allowed to make movies and tv shows. Just sad.
lmao

I never knew who Lindsay Lohan was except that she was famous for going to rehab. I guess my daughter wasn't the right age to have seen those movies, because I don't remember any of them--I didn't even realize they remade Parent Trap.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned Sherilyn Fenn who, if you've seen her in Twin Peaks, was really something.

What happened to Bridget Fonda's career? She was hot for awhile and then just sort of disappeared (Ditto her dad Peter)

An oldie from the '80s, but what happened to Irene Cara? Vanity (not that she was particularly talented) and Appollonia?

I loved her in Rude Awakening. It was a good show,but they messed with the formula for the third season and that killed it.

Halle Berry and she is still the prettiest and best dressed woman in Hollywood but who is making her movie decisions?

I think the problem with some actors is while they may be good actors, they stink at picking movies that are right for them.

Ice Cube comes to mind...he made a move from the "thug" roles (Boyz in the Hood) to the silly ones like "Are We There Yet?"
Are you seriously saying you didn't like Anaconda (one of my faves on TV) because that's just wrong and he wasn't a thug, either.

I was just thinking the other day that David Boreanaz must be one of the most successful TV actors ever that no one ever talks about. How many can say they were in 3 successful TV series and are still relatively young so they might be in even more? I know zero about the guy.
