Mariah Carey and Will Smith

It’s strange to think about a time when Will Smith and Mariah Carey weren’t household names, but in 1988, when this photo was taken, the two were still unknown young artists. Two years later, Carey released her debut album and Smith appeared on the hit series Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

Clueless Cast Behind The Scenes, 1995

In 1995, before Clueless was released, many executives actually passed on the chance of releasing it, believing that it would be a flop. It ended up at Paramount Pictures. Paul Rudd, one of the young stars of the film, said: “After the table read we all went and got a bite to eat. We went to a place not far, around the corner…I do remember all of us sitting around saying, ‘How cool is it that we’re all going to do a movie about kids our own age?’ And having that conversation about the John Hughes movies to our generation.”
