My Secret Teen Past

Nostalgia alert! See the (sometimes cheesy) ways stars – from Ian Somerhalder to Julie Bowen – got their start

SARAH MICHELLE GELLAR

Before she won a daytime Emmy for All My Children, Gellar played bratty rich girl Sydney on 1992's Swan's Crossing, where she found the Romeo to her Juliet in Garrett (Shane McDermott). And if their parents were to find out, "my mother would ground me ... your dad would take your bike away," she tells him. The horror! Also appearing on the soap? Mira Sorvino!
