Justin Timberlake and Ryan Gosling, 1994
It’s crazy to think that two of the biggest stars in the world – Justin Timberlake and Ryan Gosling – got their start on the Disney Channel’s The All New Mickey Mouse Club. During their time on the show in the ‘90s they showed off their singing and acting chops.
While speaking about his time on the show with Ellen DeGeneres, Gosling noted about how inadequate he felt when he watched Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera perform:
I remember when we first got to the show, they sort of had all the kids perform for one another. I remember it was Christina Aguilera and then Britney performed and I remember thinking, ‘Oh, OK, so they’re like freakishly talented.’ I was used to working with talented people, but that was another level.
