Once you’re in a relationship with someone — most likely a friend — isn’t it funny to go back and look at pictures of you guys together from before you started dating? It’s like, there’s so many questions: “Who knew we would wind up together?” “Why do we look like we don’t even like each other?” “WE WERE JUST FRIENDS!” And guys… it’s probably the same with celebs.
In the nostalgic and somewhat awkward tradition of digging-up-your-old-yearbook-photos, we did the same below with some of our fave celeb couples — who were not at all couples when these photos were originally taken. From Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin and Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson to Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez, we’ve compiled the 12 shots below of celeb couples pictured before they were romantically intertwined. “Who knew we would wind up together?”
