Childhood friends in Hollywood

Ryan Gosling and Justin Timberlake
These handsome boys first met while starring in the Mickey Mouse Club in their tween years. In fact, when Ryan Gosling first moved to Orlando, Fla., in the early 90s, to appear on The All New Mickey Mouse Club, he lived with Justin Timberlake. Timberlake's mom, Lynn, even signed on to be Gosling's legal guardian for six months while his own mother, Donna, returned to Canada for work!





Kim Kardashian and Nicole Richie
In one of the most epic throwback pictures ever, Kim Kardashian reminded everyone that she was buddies with fellow Hollywood kid Nicole Richie during their teen years. Kardashian posted a picture of the pals with the caption: "#ThrowbackThursday @nicolerichie and I being oh so cool at 13 years old." The girls grew up near one another, running in the same circles with powerful dads Lionel Richie and Robert Kardashian.





Tobey Maguire and Leonardo DiCaprio
Tobey Maguire and Leonardo DiCaprio were buddies long before starring in The Great Gatsby together. In an interview with Huffington Post, DiCaprio revealed, "After I met Tobey at an audition, I felt like I wanted this guy to be my friend. I remember driving back from school and he was doing Hot Rod Brown Class Clown with Whoopi Goldberg outside Hollywood High. It was a high school. And I jumped out of my car in the middle of the scene, as they were shooting, practically. I was like, `Tobey! Tobey! Tobey! Give me your number.' He was like, `Yeah, who are you again?'"





Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez
Long before Justin Bieber entered the mix, Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez met on the set of Barney & Friends as kid actors in the late 90s and became fast pals. In an interview with Seventeen magazine in January 2014, Gomez revealed despite a falling out while Lovato was in rehab in 2010, they remain close friends. "I've known her since we were 7, and we did fall apart for a while. She was going through things and I was so young and it was confusing. I processed it saying, 'OK, I don't understand what she's going through so I'm just going to do this.' I don't think it was fair, and I'm so happy that I have her back in my life now."





Jonah Hill and Adam Levine
Jonah Hill and Adam Levine have been pals way before they became household names. In an interview with Playboy, The Wolf of Wall Street actor gushed growing up, "Adam was like family, and he still is... I don't see him as a rock star. He's just a great person to me... Adam has been there for me and my family, and his family has been there for my family more than anyone else. That guy has all my love and respect forever."





Kate Hudson and Liv Tyler
Kate Hudson and Liv Tyler grew up running in the same famous circle thanks to their famous parents, Goldie Hawn and Steven Tyler, but they become super close while attending the same high school together, Crossroads School for Arts & Sciences in the 1990s. The BFFs then went on to star in Dr. T & the Women together, where they shared an onscreen kiss!





Naomi Watts and Nicole Kidman
These two Aussie A-listers have been BFFs since high school. "Naomi Watts and I are very, very good friends and have maintained that through many things…I think that's really rare, particularly for actresses, and I take a lot of pride in that," Kidman told the Telegraph. "We share a naughty wicked sense of humor," Watts told Jane magazine.





Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie
These two socialites go way back. After growing up together in the posh Bel-Air neighborhood, Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton then documented their wild early years on reality show The Simple Life. Despite not remaining as close as they once were, Richie said in 2014 on Watch What Happens Live, "Paris is somebody that's been in my life since day one. I haven't spoken to her in a while technically, but, if you really want to get into it, my view of a friendship is someone that you don't necessarily have to talk to you every day."
