Ben Affleck: is another of our Burger King kids apparently he starred as a fresh faced 15 year old before a break in Dazed and Confused and then later Good Will Hunting when "beefy ben" become an A-list celeb.

Seth Green: Theres very little Seth didnt try and hawk as a child before going onto fame as a hairy thing Willow sometimes kissed in buffy and Scott, Doctor Evils son in Austin Powers. Lee Jeans a health service advert on smoking, Wendys, Froot-Loops and he was yet another future star to find his way onto a Burger king commercial along with Ben Affleck, Lenny Kravizt, Sarah Michelle gellar and Jason Biggs.

Morgan Freeman: Although he'd already been in the film A Man called Adam, I really know Freeman from the Shawshank redemption and Seven. Back in 1974 though he was tackling slightly less gritty roles in an advert for McDonalds and in a tv show "Who Says I Can't Ride a Rainbow" the precurser to Barney. I can only imagine the bathos an actor like Freeman managed to put into his role as a purchaser of hamburgers.

Matt LeBlanc: Joey possibly the king of the pre-fame commercial, hes one of the few prefame commercials stars to come out with any credibility although he often played man candy in cheesy ads including Heinz ketchup (1987)for which he won a Gold Lion Award at Cannes, Coca cola and cherry 7up, Doritos,Fruit and fiber not to mention his levis 501 ads pre friends.

Britney Spears: Back when it was actually appropriate for Britney to be wearing a schoolgirls outfit in her pre mouskateer days she made her tv debut in a TV commercial for barbecue sauce (early 1990s).

Lindsay Lohan: Lindsay Lohan's claims to fame or infamy begin at an early age she managed to rack up quickly ads for Jello which included Bill cosby, for the gap, for Wendys and pizza hut. Her commercial career began before her and her mother appeared in a tv series called "Healthy Kids" and then regular appearances in Another world 96 and then the Parent Trap and later Mean Girls

Melissa Joan Hart: Melissa's tv debut came in a commercial for Splashy bathtub toys (1980) aged about 4 I thought about tracking the video down to put up here but then decided I was too pretty for prison life. After "Clarissa Explains It All" (1991) came sabrina the teenage witch and a few commercials for Jazzy Jewelry and Frosted cheerios.

Fred Savage: Savages first words on TV were "say goodbye to Fred" aged 6 in a commercial for Pac Man vitamins. . The fred he was referring to was from Flinstone vitamins the Pacs main rival at the time. Pacman was a game in which your objective was to munch as many pills as possible making it the ideal tie in for vitamins. Savage later went on to star in the Wizard and of course wonder years.
