Celebrities are nailing the #10YearChallenge, and the glow-up is real
On the off chance you haven’t noticed it taking over your Instagram feed, the latest social media craze has already emerged in the New Year. The 10-year challenge, a.k.a. the “How Hard Did Aging Hit You? Challenge,” involves posting a photo of yourself in 2009 next to a photo of yourself in 2019. It’s a chance to show off your glow-up and reflect on how you’ve changed in the last 10 years—all for the better, hopefully!
Even celebs are jumping on the 10-year challenge bandwagon, giving us mere mortals the chance to see how our favorite actors and musicians have gotten more beautiful with age. It’s super unfair if you ask us, but that’s okay. We still love seeing how far the likes of Reese Witherspoon, Nicki Minaj, and Mariah Carey have come since 2009, which seriously feels like a LIFETIME ago.
Without further ado, here are some of our favorite celebrity 10 Year Challenge photos:

They’ve aged gorgeously, amiright? Maybe it’s all that Fiji water they’re drinking.
