Brat Pack: Then And Now

Ally SheedyDon't you... forget about them.

Well, how could you? My, how we hearted those hot 80s kids.

For the younger generation among us, first a little history lesson.

Way back in the day, when hair and shoulder pads fought for space in a crowded room...

A phenomenon was born.

Yes, the Brat Pack were a bunch of young, attractive American actors who made teen living look uber-glam and nothing to do with spots and period pains.

There's a downside to being so cool as a young 'un though - everyone wants to know how you'll age.

While there were certainly a number of other actors whose names were linked to the Brat Pack - Matt Dillon, Matthew Broderick, Tom Cruise - what we're really interested in is the core group.

So step back with us to a time when mp3 players were walkmans and blue eyeshadow was in no way ironic, as we ask, how have the Brat Pack fared over time?
