Anthony Weiner Is Not Ashamed That He Used to Look Like Jennifer Grey

Most of the time, celebrities do not willingly reveal their yearbook photos to the world, because they are inherently embarrassing and horrifying. But Congressman Anthony Weiner has gone a different route, putting his yearbook photo up on his Twitter page, as the Daily Politics noticed today, so that the world can marvel at him in all his poufy-haired, possibly lip-glossed wonder. Nobody puts Anthony Weiner in a corner.

1. Maybe we should all have to show our yearbook photos.

That would put us in a new light, I'm sure. Here's one from my 1963 senior yearbook:

4. Oooh, what a cutie

I love to look at old yearbooks, sigh. The hairdos and clothes are especially interesting.

When I was in high school, girls could not wear pants to school; it was a dress every day. There were no back-packs for carrying. You stowed stuff in your locker & carried your books on your hip. Girls wore bee-hive hairdos, circle pins indicating they were virgins (but most weren't), and waist cinchers. Fun times. Yea Womens' Lib.

6. "circle pins indicating they were virgins"

I wonder if Sarah gave one of those to Bristol. :shrug:

2. K&R -- Even then he gave off that "don't fuck with me" vibe. nt

7. I say that's been photoshopped - unless he used to wear lipstick and mascara.

Anthony - anything you're not telling us?
