As a child star, Corey Feldman took Hollywood by storm with his beady eyes and cherubic face. He appeared in countless commercials, landing his first for McDonald’s at the age of three. He snagged parts in primetime TV shows like Mork and Mindy and One Day at a Time, and by the 80s, his rascally, no-holds-barred persona landed him film roles in Gre...
Who knew that chubby Vern Tessio, who dug like a prairie dog in search of his pot of pennies and loved cherry-flavored Pez in Stand By Me, would turn into a muscular, deep-voiced hunk of a man and marry a model in real life?

(After all, his father is the inimitable Do...
