Top 10 teen pop stars

Yesterday nominations for the 2015 Teen Choice Awards kicked off and instantly took over your social media channels, so this week it’s all about the teens! Some of the world's biggest pop stars once took to the stage with a mouths full of metal braces and not a single hair on their chest - but they soon shed their teenage skin and blossomed into super shiny, white-toothed, glossy-haired pop stars, with screaming fans falling at their feet!

Take a look at our top ten teens at the start of their careers...


1. Justin Bieber

Little baby Bieber. Discovered singing away on YouTube aged 13, what an innocent looking thing - butter wouldn't melt, right?


2. Taylor Swift

Plucked from the country aged 14, this week Taylor made Forbes’ 'Top 100 Most Powerful Woman' list. Not bad for a progress for a ten year career!


3.  Britney Spears

She was just 17 when she recorded ‘Baby One More Time’ which was an unbelievable 17 years ago! It’s been a bit of a roller coaster for old Britney since then!


4) Christina Aguilera

Britney’s rival of the 90’s. Here’s Christina aged 19 singing 'Genie In A Bottle' at the 1999 Teen Choice Awards...




5) Michael Jackson

Well he wasn't even a teenager when he started out, but his teenage solo career sent him flying, straight into a legend-hood. Here he is aged 14 on the cover of his single ‘Be


6) Avril Lavigne

She was a girl, dressed like a boy, could she have made it any more obvious that she was just 18 when Sk8er Boi came out.


7) Miley Cyrus

Once upon a time when she wore clothes and didn’t shave her head, this was Miley Cyrus.


8) One Direction

Never underestimate the power of 5 teenage boys. They were a chubby-cheeked group of boys as young as 16 when they first stepped onto the X Factor stage, and it only took them two years to take over the world


9) Destiny's Child

They formed as teenagers, and recorded ‘Bills, Bills, Bills’ when they just 17! That fourth one that know one really knows is Farrah Franklin is you were wondering...


10) Rihanna

Little Ri Ri was only 19 when she released ‘Umbrella’ - shooting her into stardom, and she’d already been singing years before that!
