Some of our younger readers may not remember this, but there was a time when Macaulay Culkin was one of the most famous people on the planet.
You'll note that we didn't say "the most famous child star" or "the most famous 9-year-old" -- no such qualifiers are necessary when describing Culkin's A-list status circa 1991.
Based on the direction of their careers and their outward appearances, it likely comes as a shock to many readers that Mila Kunis and Macaulay Culkin were once a romantic item.
We don't mean to be rude here, just factual.
Remember when Macaulay Culkin first slapped shaving cream on his face in Home Alone?
Remember the face he made?
Remember when Brenda Song and Trace Cyrus were a couple? They seemed, to many people, like a bit of a mismatch.
And it wasn't that long ago, really, when Macaulay Culkin and Mila Kunis broke up. Well ... it's been almost a decade, but still.
You may have heard that Macaulay Culkin recently cut his long, wonderful hair pretty drastically. But he's also working as an actor again, which is great.
Well, that's not the only change that he's made to his appearance -- and this one's a little more permanent.
We're very glad to see that Paris Jackson is feeling better these days.
The only daughter of Michael Jackson has really been through the emotional ringer since her famous father passed away, battling a substance abuse problem and even considering suicide.
He's doing great, everyone. Nothing to worry about.
UNEXPECTED SELFIE ALERT! UNEXPECTED SELFIE ALERT!
TOTALLY UNEXPECTED SELFIE ALERT!
Thanks to MTV, viewers now have a firm grasp on how difficult it can be to live at a teen mom.
But what about life as a teen bride or a teen groom? Turns out, this is no walk in the relationship park, either.
Well, it's Christmastime, which means crowded malls, in-laws, travel expenses...Wait, why does anyone like this holiday again?
Oh, right, the movies! (And the office parties that provide an acceptable excuse to get sloshed in the presence of your co-workers, but that's a different story.)
And the winner of the Internet this weekend is...
MACAULAY CULKIN!!!
Macaulay Culkin is not dead, despite another fast-spreading Internet hoax indicating the Home Alone star's demise ... for the second time this year alone.
The troubled and sometimes reclusive actor, 34, who at one point was reportedly in the throes of heroin addiction and appeared gaunt, is alive and well.
We talk frequently about celebrity look-alikes who we swear have to be distantly related, but this set of mind blowing photos has us questioning everything.
Somewhere in a bygone era, was there a historical figure who looked JUST like us? Are we all reincarnates of others who walked the Earth ages ago?
When Kim Kardashian and Kanye West got together, we gave them our best side-eye, but it didn't seem that far-fetched that people so in love with themselves and attention would gravitate toward each other.
Not so with some of the other big couples in Hollywood, particularly those of the May-December varieties where the age gap is so great one could be the other's parent.
Macaulay Culkin probably wishes he spent this weekend home alone.
At least then he could have just worn his Ryan Gosling shirt in peace.
Prepare to have your minds shattered, people.
What we have here is a photo of Ryan Gosling ... apparently wearing a shirt emblazoned with a photo of Macaulay Culkin wearing a shirt of Ryan Gosling.
Macaulay Culkin has just gone meta, and won the Internet.
The former child star turned musician, who's made more headlines due to his changing appearance than his career lately, has done so again here.
Hollywood has a bit of a Peter Pan complex sometimes never wanting its child actors to grow up. But grow up they must as people do.
Occasionally, the actors and actresses we love as children make the transition to adult stars ... sometimes making a pit stop as amateur porn stars ... before going on to transition successfully into adult actors known for more than just their childhood roles.
Remember when Kevin was left Home Alone and he ordered pizza and used a movie to tell the delivery driver to "keep the change, partner..."?
Macaulay Culkin didn't forget Kevin's love of pizza, apparently. Now he has a cover band dedicated to everyone's favorite cheesy pie and Velvet Underground.
As Macaulay Culkin once proved, slapping after shave on one's face can be a traumatic experience.
But that's nothing compared to the jolt fans received over the weekend at New York Comic-Con when this reclusive actor made a rare public appearance... rocking some serious scruff, long hair and bunny ears.
