Come on, that was the style back in the day. It shouldn't have been but it was.
uh.
Eww.
That's not "hot" in high school. I've seen hot in high school. That's cute/borderline dorky.
You can see the beautiful face behind those glasses. she looks like one of those repressed librarians who takes off the glasses, shakes out her hair, and turns into a vixen all in one move.
WHY does everyone feel the need to bleach their hair blonde
Its hard to tell with her hair up like that. She looks pretty cute tho.
if i didn't know any better, i'd think this was a boy
she looks like that lesbian chick from last seasons ANTM.
Sooooo pretty w/out the glasses.
haha - jizz comment make me laughy.
Doogie Hauser lookalike
Anon: Because dirty dishwater blonde hair is gross! She looks to have had that mousy blonde color and wanted it to look better. Believe me, I would much rather have dark, shiny hair but when you are used to golden blonde and then all of a sudden around age 17 or 18 it goes dark and looks like dirty barn straw, you have to dye it lighter. That's my excuse anyway.

That's a good fucking question. Personally, I'm sick of blondes. Give me a brunette any day of the week.
Wow- nosejob.
WOW
Come on, in the 80s didnt any of you have bad frames?
she looks cute, I think.
there is hope for us all 
The glasses come off. She has a pretty face.
Those glasses look fake. Charlize studious? I don't think so.
She's been a party girl since wayyy back. (he he he)
Remember she grew up in South Africa so the trend there may gave been a little bit different, so play nice. She is still a total hottie and I would hit it so hard her grandmother would feel it.
Something looks different on her face. I propose that there be side by side comparison of people from then and now. That would have helped on the Angelina nose job thread.
Her eyebrows are well manicured.
She was cute - minus the Sally Jessy Glasses - but I remember I had those when I was in high School - not because it was cool - but glasses back then sucked! haha
It's nice to see someone who doesn't look like they've had a nose-job (or 6)
In 6th grade, my glasses were about that big, maybe a little bigger, and blue! They didn't have cool glasses back then.
Who'd have thought she'd grow up to be such a knockout?
She looks like the girl in middle school who used to give hand jobs in the back of the bus and got pregant at 14 trying to be popular.
Awww, she's cute in a Clark Kent sort of way. She kind of looks like Linda Purl there.
Wow looks like Charlize pulled a fucking Clark Kent on our asses! She took those glasses off and she's Superhot! Love her!
MAN!
she WAS hot in school.
i wonder what happened...?
I think she's got that naughty librarian thing going on in this picture, she's a classic beauty.
OMG!
She was really cute, glasses and all, gave her a dorky look but she was still a beauty!
It's not the blonde hair I don't get...it's that freaking orange fake tan. 
I think she looks adorable! My grade school glasses were so much worse than that, I can't even look at my fifth grade picture.
Yeah, she looks much better human colored and not bright orange. Orange is not a shade found in nature on human beings, just oranges.
Amazing what money can do for a person's looks! (What a change!)
she looks really good for a high schooler! (or whatever she was)
Bonnie Blu-
The 80's? How old do you think Charlize is? I'm guessing this was taken around 1992. We are close to the same age.
She was born in 1975 I think
The question is, did she lick them clean afterwards?
ewwwwwwwww
jesusAITCHchrist, you perverts - she's like 12 in that pic!
And definitly hot.
Hot? lmao. She looks real bad.
She was beautiful, but hiding her good looks behind glasses. You could already see some gorgeous bone structure and features, but she hadn't grown into her full hotness yet. But, at that age, who had?
She looks WAY better than most people do at that age, give her a break!
dont sweat it, joey is the brangelina stalker.
blonde is getting old fast, and its extremely annoying too see everyone out there with blond hair.
she was very cute but nothing special imo.And ditto to the orange fake tan. She was gorgeous in Devil's advocate, but for some time she just doesn't do it for me anymore.I blame it on the tan.
i dont think its a nise job, its just make up. the good stuff at best
i meant nose job...(sorry)
she is stupid hot with those glasses total lilf.
What do you expect? She was raised in South Africa where Bailey Quarters from WKRP is considered a national style icon.
the cutest 'thing' i've seen in a while. i bet ya she was all tall & akward, shucks!
She was gorgeous, even back then. Fuck the dorky glasses, you can see that she has perfect bone structure and beautiful features.
Oh joy, I finally have a Gravatar!

Agitprop Bart>>
Fuck. You. Asshole. we have more style than you ever will,not that you'd know, probably never having been out of your state. you don't get to insult an entire country just because you don't like her, you ignorant twat.
She's very pretty behind those glasses.
Aww! She looks the same now - more or less. I think she was very cute and the huge glasses makes her all more endearing.
THAT looks like her. I think she's pretty cute in the awkward teen kinda way there.
I think LA at 5:13 got it right. She's a beauty behind those glasses
HER LIPS LOOK SO MUCH MORE POUTY NOW THAN BACK IN HER SCHOOL PICS. collagen?
The glasses are bad and almost everyone looks better blonde, but you can see her features are beautiful!
She was just some drama club loser back then.
Probably miserable to be around.
