Which '90s Stars Have Disappeared Today?
The '90s had plenty of breakout stars who are still booked and busy today, like Jennifer Aniston and George Clooney. However, some major players who were poised to be the "next big thing" seem to be enjoying life mostly out of the spotlight these days. For example, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, though once a teen heartthrob, decided to leave Home Improvement in 1998 so he could go to college. He never returned to the spotlight in quite the same way, but he later said that exiting the show had been a "good decision." Or Yasmeen Ghauri, the model who was scouted while working at McDonald's. She retired from the fashion world after getting married in the mid-'90s, and now she's an advocate for breast cancer research and environmental causes. Or A Little Princess star and heiress to the family who founded Hyatt hotels, Liesel Matthews. She retired from acting in 2000 and went on to co-found an impact investment organization with her husband. So, in your opinion, which '90s star once seemed destined for greatness, only to be basically "forgotten" today — whether by their own choice or not? Why do you think their careers turned out the way they did? Let us know in the comments or in the anonymous comments box below, and you may be featured in an upcoming BuzzFeed Community post!
