Music Stars And Their Embarrassing High School Yearbook Photos July 5, 2009

Shall we dive back into the working week with a tasty slice of schadenfreude? Think of it as a wheat grass shot for the soul via the music industry's most embarrassing yearbook photos.

From Gene Simmons and Prince to Madonna and Avril Lavigne (who surprise surprise wasn't a punk) Impact Lab have compiled a skin-crawling collection of yearbook photos which belie the superstar persona those manipulative Record Companies would have you believe.

Case in point? Lil John was once the long lost cousin of Steve Urkel. Eminem looks like a beady eyed yokel who's one defective gene away from retardation. And while currently channeling "sexually ambiguous metrosexual" American Idol host Ryan Seacrest rocked the decidedly less sexy "future pedophile" look in middle school. Thank God our yearbook photos will never see the light of day.

Tman gives me so much faith in the future of America... and I have no doubt that he's an American. White, 14, virgin, IQ of about 75, daddy messes with him after the lights go out.

Some time before, I needed to buy a good car for my organization but I did not have enough cash and could not purchase anything. Thank God my dude adviced to take the loans from reliable creditors. Thence, I acted that and used to be satisfied with my car loan.

You may have not intended to do so, but I think you have managed to express the state of mind that a lot of people are in. The sense of wanting to help, but not knowing how or where, is something a lot of us are going through.
