You may find this hard to believe, but at one point in time, your favorite celebrities started out as little humans. I think the correct term for that is children. To balance the universe in terms of cuteness, some would-be Chinese celebrity children were cuter than others before they became famous stars. It’s only fair, right? See for yourself.

Zhang Ziyi looking very much the mini version of the actress she is today. This kind of upsets me. Her beauty is the kind you secretly wish was surgically enhanced so you wouldn’t feel bad for the way you turned out.

Who would’ve thought that the baby in this picture would turn out to be Jackie Chan, international action movie star and soon to be Spy Next Door?

Given Yao Ming’s adult height, I’m sure that the picture of him posing on the Great Wall was when he was about 2 months old. Give or take.

Bowl cuts happen to EVERYONE. I cannot stress it enough. And neither can popstar/actor Jay Chou.

Not much has changed for popstar Lee Hom Wang — still adorable!

Tony Leung as a child on the left, contemplating whether or not he’ll be sticking to the same hair style for the next few decades. Whatever gets you called the Asian Clark Gable, I guess.

Check out this hot celebrity. Still as cute as ever! Oh wait…that’s a picture of me. I’m not even Chinese. (Or a celebrity for that matter.)

Are we surprised by how these people turned out in life? Were you cuter as a child?
