Do you remember the 90s? Everyone had a pager, played Tetris and watched MTV. It’s hard to believe that almost 30 years have passed and everything has changed dramatically: today, we all have broadband Internet, instant messaging and social networks that can post hundreds of photos a day. But the clichés that we find in this selection are really pieces of the anthology. Behind each of them hides a story and a series of authentic emotions. These are archival images of the stars of music, cinema, and sport with a look that will speak to a few people.

At BuzzDestination, we have selected a slew of photos of famous personalities from the 90s that show the most heartfelt moments in celebrity life and how life can change in the space of a few years.

#Hollyweird @treytylor The Story You Didn’t Know About Nicholas Cage’s Mother: Nicolas Cage’s mother, Joy Vogelsang, was plagued with a double whammy of mental illnesses: schizophrenia and severe depression. For most of Cage’s childhood, beginning when he was six years old, she was housed in mental institutions and would receive electroshock therapy. “Sometimes she would go into Rip Van Winkle mode and forget everything that had happened,” Cage reportedly admitted about their rare encounters. “Even when things got really bizarre, I was able to detach and look at it with a scientific curiosity. I’m sure it had some impact on me, though. Maybe her illness was behind the nightmares I had.” Cage was mostly raised by his father, August Coppola (yes, brother of The Godfather director Francis Ford Coppola) in Long Beach, California. Coppola and Vogelsang got a divorce when Cage was 12. He told US magazine in 1998 that children of schizophrenics “tend to become overachievers and become this super-vigilant, overachiever type of personality.” They even have a name, he explained. “I am a ‘superfrenetic.’ Superfrenetics happen rarely, but they happen… Offspring of schizophrenic people. Charlie Chaplin was a superfrenetic.” Instead of being derailed by his mother’s illness, Cage remained passionate and channeled his feelings into his acting work. “For me, acting was a way of taking destructive energy and doing something productive with it, and in that way it was quite a life saver,” he told The Guardian in 2007. “Instead of turning it on myself or on somebody else, I put it on film and created characters to express anger or express sadness.” Link in bio.

As a child, Victoria Beckham used to be embarrassed, about her wealth. She used to ask her dad not to drop her off for school in his Rolls Royce in front of all the kids. Her father was an electronics engineer. She was also bullied a lot. “Children were literally picking things up out of the puddles and throwing them at me. And I just stood there, on my own. No one was with me. I didn’t have any friends.”
