Popular Hollywood Child Stars We Used to Adore – Find Out Who Grew Up To Be A Huge Success

Jennifer Connelly

While Jennifer Connelly originally tasted stardom by becoming a child model, she quickly turned to acting, and since then, she’s never looked back. She starred in many commercials until finally landing her debut role in the 1984 film Once Upon A Time in America. That role gave her the boost she needed to skyrocket her credit report and her reputation, and in 2001, she won an Academy Award for her spectacular performance in A Beautiful Mind, where she played Alicia Nash alongside Russel Crowe. Another notable part of hers is in the movie Requiem For A Dream, and Connelly has proved many times that she was destined to become Hollywood material.
