Country Yearbook Photos

Somehow we knew this country giant played some basketball in high school. He played football too, but ultimately he'd find his fame and fortune singing tender country love songs.

This picture looks much older than it is. The singer was born in the late '70s and attended high school in Georgia before taking an unconventional route to country fame. He's missing two things in this photo that he's know for today. Do you think you can identify the artist in this yearbook photo?

Clean-cut and smiling are two things you rarely see from this country music superstar today, but back when this yearbook photo was taken he had a much cheerier disposition. That crooked grin and his dark eyes might be enough to let you figure out who this is.

Had this future country artist been famous while in middle school, she surely would have landed an Aqua Net sponsorship. Seriously, you could climb those bangs all the way to heaven! The mystery singer tells Taste of Country that her mother told her she'd regret this hairstyle one day, and as is always the case, mom was right.

Can you guess whose yearbook photo this is?

One would never have guessed this country singer to be a Tommy Hilfiger fan, but in the early '90s, everyone was dressed in Used Jeans, B.U.M sweatshirts and Hilfiger shirts. Well maybe not everyone, but that was certainly the style of that day. Today, one is more likely to find this mystery superstar in a black cowboy hat and leather jacket.

This young country cutie in the making grew up to become one of the most beautiful women in country music. No longer does she have the adorable gap between her two front teeth. You'll be able to recognize her easiest if you focus on the eyes. Any guesses?
