JTT
Jonathan Taylor Thomas was the king of Tiger Beat Nation. Then he went to Harvard and was never heard from again (he aged pretty well, relatively speaking. Just wait).
-
Devon Sawa
Wikipedia claims that Devon is best known for a role in Final Destination. Really, he is best-known for Casper the Friendly Ghost. He is still getting work, though, so that is positive.
-
Brad Renfro
This is sad entry #1. Brad died last year after a heroin OD.
-
Jonathan Brandis
This is another sad one. Jonathan Brandis committed suicide in 2003.
-
Andrew Keegan
Moving on from the sadness: I randomly went to see this indie Irish movie with my dad a couple of months ago (we had some time to kill), and there was Andrew Keegan! He looks exactly the same.
-
Mike Vitar
Mikey here topped my extremely unscientific Tiger Beat Heartthrob poll, which is odd, because I didn't personally remember him. He's the guy from The Sandlot. He hasn't really worked since D3: The Mighty Ducks, so I couldn't even find a current picture.
-
Rider Strong
There were two types of Boy Meets World fans: Team Shawn girls and Team Eric girls (more on him later). For the Team Shawn contingent, you'll be happy to know that he's still writing and acting and also is getting his MFA, which means he is sensitive and dreamy.
-
Will Friedle
So I was obviously totally and completely Team Eric, because who doesn't love a dreamy, unthreatening, your-friend's-older-brother figure? Right. Anyway, Will Friedle got fat, which is sad.
-
Matt Lawrence
Clarification: I was Team Eric until Matt Lawrence showed up on Boy Meets World, because really, look at those dimples. He also got kind of jowly.
-
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I feel like JGL is actually more popular in retrospect, now that he is super hot and an indie star and what have you. Here he is for good measure.
-
Jeremy and Jason London
TWINS!!! (Also got fat.)

i grew up on tigerbeat and have seen many good heartthrobs come and go such as david cassidy michael gray and liegh garrett to name a few even michael jackson when he was with the jackson 5 and going through those changes . all the good ones are gone now but it seems like once they reach 20 they are history! come on tiger beat give the older guys and gals a chance too.
-
dear amanda dobbins, sad is not that people have or have not gained weight - i.e. “freidle got fat, which is sad”… sad is the definition of amanda dobbins, who clearly is a weight-obsessed internet bully… i would pity you, but i haven't the time…
-
Reminds me of how old I am…Every drop of allowance went to buying these hearthrob mags but then they had Donny Osmond, Jackson five, Bay city rollers in later years and Leaf Garrett…Wow,what memories…
-
VIVA EL RENFRO!

Does anyone else think there's a touch of the Heath Ledgers to Joseph Gordon-Levitt?
-
You have to love JTT.. he was THE top one.. and yet he wasnt only beautiful but he was smart.. went to Harvard and got a real life.. I have to say he is one person in this world I would have loved to meet.
