If you’ve been on social media lately, you would’ve seen many #throwback pictures of your friends from a decade ago. That’s because the #10YearChallenge is currently trending and everyone including international celebrities and famous Malaysians are taking the time to dig up their old snaps to show their followers their “glo-up” process.
Since our local personalities and notable leaders are also hopping on the bandwagon, we figured now’s the perfect time to take a look at how some of them have changed over the last 10 years.

Look at that baby face when he was featured in CLEO!
Who would’ve guessed that he would be a leading Asian actor in Hollywood’s Crazy Rich Asians 10 years later? Those years have done Henry well because all the ladies are now swooning over his dashing good looks.

11. Rosmah Mansor (Former First Lady)
Rosmah seems to be more fond of sporting a head scarf in recent years instead of showing off her locks. Also, we don’t know if our eyes are playing tricks on us but we also think her eyebrow arches look a little higher now!

12. Najib Razak (Former Prime Minister)
Meanwhile, our former PM has gotten more grey strands on his head over the years. That said, at least he’s motivated to stay young and fit by hitting the gym more often!
