Usher made a huge name for himself when he came on the music scene in the 1990s – and today he celebrates his 37th birthday. 

The Dallas native isn't showing any signs of slowing down though. Not only did he recently collaborate with Target, supporting their Kids in Need Foundation, it looks like he also tied the knot with his fiancée, Grace Miguel earlier this year.

What's more, the singer-turned-actor is also making an appearance as Sugar Ray Leonard in the upcoming biopic Hands of Stone which stars Robert De Niro. 

So, it looks like 37 is shaping up to be a good year for the star and to celebrate we look back at some of the cutest and funniest of his Instagram throwback photos:

Have you ever had think for a second when someone informs you that 2000 was fifteen years ago and not five? It can be pretty terrifying. Where has the time gone? Are we adults now?

If you ever needed a reminder that time has indeed passed while you were busy buying UGG boots and watching Netflix, then allow us to take you on a trip down memory lane. These gems will definitely make all 00s kids feel old.

Teens today don't even know what these are:

There are people in schools today who won't know this struggle:

Actually, the 00s was a time when all Kardashians wore mostly matching satin:

It's sad that the Kardashians no longer wear co-ordinating satin.

She's known now as the seriously sophisticated fashionista; the wife of one of music's biggest stars, and all-in-all probably the most famous face in the world.

But it hasn't always been such a wholly glamorous existence for 34-year-old Kim Kardashian. 

As well as once working as a stylist, sorting out the wardrobes of Los Angeles's rich and famous, six years ago the reality TV mega-star (she's set to earn €47m this year alone) furthermore fronted her own series of workout DVDs.

Promising a "beautiful backside," the release is playfully entitled Fit In Your Jeans By Friday.

Intriguingly, kimkardashianfitness.com is still very much up and running, providing a gloriously tantalising throwback glimpse into the the pre-Kanye world of Ms Kardashian.

"We all see celebrities in magazines and on TV and wish we could wriggle into the latest trends worn by our favorite stars.

"The thing is – celebrities work out too – otherwise they wouldn’t look as good as they do!" she writes on the site, adding: "My workouts show how easy it is to get the body you want for any style jean you want to wear.

"Fit In Your Jeans By Friday is an all access pass to my personal training sessions filled with 'How To' tips and Bonus Workouts."

Amazon describes the offering, which was first released in the US in 2009, as "a quick paced workout formulated to have you squatting, lunging and lengthening to a chiseled core in less than five days!

"This workout will isolate and condition all muscle groups of the butt, hips, legs, arms and midsection while burning 100s of calories."

On board to help her with her workouts are trainers Patrick Goudeau and Jennifer Galardi – with Jen saying afterwards in a promotional interview that it's "easy to see why people want a booty" like Kim's.

"That girl is TINY with an amazing backside and now an amazing body to go with it.

"Kim had realistic goals. She worked with what her momma gave her," the trainer added, "and while she definitely has become toned and tightened, she still maintains her beautiful feminine shape."

While performing her light weight-training, Pilates and mild cardio moves, Kim sports a trio of outfits for the DVD: first up, there is a black Spandex body-suit teamed with knee-high Puma boots, fingerless gloves and a sparkly belt.

The star can also be seen in a crop-top and leggings combo accessorised with a leather, zip-detail waist belt.

Meanwhile, her final look consists of classic, figure-hugging leggings worn with Nike booties and a black cut-out top which exposes a plunging purple-coloured bra.

Of course, to this day, the California-native – now pregnant with her second child – retains her love of fitness and exercise.

Indeed, she is often spotted heading to gyms close-by to the €17.5m Hidden Hills home she shares with Mr West and their daughter, North.

Can you believe that it’s been 20 years since Matilda went all ‘no-hands’ on that bowl of Cheerios?

Yeah, we couldn’t either, but it’s true and no one knows how fast time flies better than Matilda herself. The actress who played the child genius turned 28 yesterday and as the Huffington Post reminded us, next Sunday will be the 20 year anniversary of the film’s original release.

Based on the Roald Dahl book of the same name, the film became an instant classic when it was released.

Mara Wilson, who played Matilda alongside Danny de Vito and Embeth Davidtz (who played Miss Honey and also McDreamy's sister Nancy for any Grey's Anatomy fans out there.), has taken a step away from the acting game since the film wrapped.

Mara distanced herself from the world of Hollywood as she said the “business of acting” was something that made her really stressed out.

So, does she spend her time re-reading Moby Dick? Kind of- but not really.

Mara went to college and graduated from New York University in 2009 and has since persued a career in writing, playwriting specifically.

Although she is also currently writing a book, according to her website.

An active twitter user, she also enjoys a good throwback to her acting days and indulges fan with some sweet snaps of her former co-stars. Yes Matilda and Lavender ARE STILL BFFS AND THAT MAKES US ALL SO HAPPY!

Since Geordie Shore hit our screens back in 2011, the cast have enjoyed rising to stardom and pursuing their own business too.

But a lot has changed in a few years, most obviously, their image. 

Earlier today, Sophie Kasaei posted an old photo of the four Geordie Shore girls Holly, Vicky, Charlotte and herself, and wow do they look different. 

The Newcastle girls are unrecognisable with their black hair and colourful dresses 

They have all recently had an overhaul on their fitness and health and are in better shape then ever. Along with a few minor cosmetic treatments, they have completely changed how they look. 

Sophie, who now owns her own clothing boutique 'Off the rails' posted the photo today with the captoin "What a throwback! Haha me and the Girls when we all had black hair and when everyone called me holly and holly Sophie"

Dodgy haircuts and seriously questionable fashion choices, we've all been there – and so has Adam Levine by the looks of it!

Now, the singer, who was voted People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive in 2013 has shared probably the best throwback of all time, captioning: "1996 in the house. That HARRIBLE 90s goatee took me an entire summer to grow."

We won't lie Adam, the goatee is not your best look to date!

The Maroon 5 frontman is now married to former Victoria's Secret model Behati Prinsloo so we're not sure he's going to be bothered much by his dodgy heydays!

Still though, we're so, so glad he posted this.

Matthew McConaughey has undergone some seriously impressive transformations over the last couple of years – first as AIDS activist Ron Woodroof in Dallas Buyers Club and then as alcoholic former police officer Rust Cohle in True Detective.

His new look makes it easy to forget that Matthew was once just your standard surfer boy hottie. So we're loving this throwback Dazed and Confused audition tape from the early Nineties, featuring Matthew with his long-forgotten wavy blonde locks.

Those were the days!

The audition might seem like a bit of fun, but it's important to remember that Dazed and Confused pretty much kickstarted Matthew's entire career… so we're thanking our lucky stars that he didn't mess up his lines!

We like to keep our teenage photos hidden safely away at the bottom of the wardrobe, only bringing them out for Facebook revenge after one of our so called friends posts a snap circa 2004 captioned: “WHAT were we wearing?! So funny! Hahaha!”

Hahaha, indeed.

Not!

Well, it’s clear Reece Witherspoon doesn’t have the same problem, as she voluntarily posted a teenage throwback snap and proved that there was no awkward stage for her. No sir.

Fifteen-year-old Reece was on the set of the 1991 film Wildflower in this photo. It was only her second ever movie, but she had plenty more to come – not to mention an Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in Walk The Line, and she’s rumoured to be up for an Oscar this year for her upcoming film Wild too. That said, she will always be Legally Blonde’s Elle Woods to us – it’s a classic!

Just look at that hair, and that relaxed pose. Not even a hint of teenage angst, or an over indulgence in eyeliner! How DID she do it?!

We didn’t recognise Hollywood actor Jason Statham with hair, but the six-pack nearly gave it away!

This throwback snap is from when Kelly Brook’s ex represented England in the 1990 Commonwealth Games in New Zealand, almost 25 years before he became one of America’s biggest action stars!

Jason, seen sporting Speedos and a full head of hair, unfortunately didn’t get any medals, and only came eighth.

We’re guessing he’s not still crying into his cornflakes about that one – with millions of dollars in the bank and supermodel Rosie Huntington-Whiteley on his arm!
