Jerry O'Connell: Where Were They Then?

Ellen_Fox
Jerry O'Connell plays the hot guy in "Piranha 3D," but back in 1986, he was just pudgy boy Verne in "Stand By Me." It's amazing what puberty can do for a career!

    • By now, I can honestly say, I'm probably as annoyed as Jerry O'Connell with "the fat kid from Stand By Me" reference everytime this guy does something new. He's not the only celeb to go from fat to fit, but it seems to me he's the most referenced. I agree with CJ, be unique, be Current, throw a "My Seceret Idenity" clip up there.... I'm over the "fat kid" flashbacks. Boom bada, boom bada, boom!

    • Don't forget his awesome role as a teenage superhero in "My Secret Identity". You know, where he can't *fly* but he can *float*, so he has to use aerosol spray cans to steer himself in the air. LOL...

    • I'll compromise with videos having ads around 15 seconds, but I'm boycotting 30 seconds+ ads which couple videos--especially when the video I'm about to watch is less than a minute long.

      Ad agencies will learn when their view counts go down, right?

      .... Right!?
