Phoebe Cates
Phoebe Cates rose to fame as one of the most beautiful women of the 1980s, playing important roles in classics like Fast Times at Ridgemont High and Gremlins.
She has largely retired from acting these days, a decision that she made in order to raise her kids, Owen, Greta and Autumn.
Owen is actually something of an actor himself, appearing in one of the best American films of the last 20 years, The Squid and the Whale.

Elisabeth Shue
If you thought that the 1980s were good for Elisabeth Shue, wait until you see her 1990s – she had Soapdish, Leaving Las Vegas, Hollow Man and more.
She was most recently seen in the starring role of Pretty Lady Who is Also Smart on the CBS police drama for people who fell asleep with the TV on, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.

Alyssa Milano
Alyssa Milano has never really left the public eye since Who’s the Boss? (spoiler alert: Mona is absolutely the boss, no question) went off the air. She most famously appeared on the show Charmed for many years and one time dressed up like a mermaid.
Lea Thompson
Lea Thompson has spent much of her last 30 years aging like a fine wine – seriously, she’s somehow prettier than she was in Back to the Future.
Molly Ringwald
Molly Ringwald doesn’t just act, starring in shows like The Secret Life of the American Teenager, but she’s also a singer. She released her debut album in 2013.

The 1980s were a much, much different time. Ronald Reagan was in the White House laying the groundwork for a financial disaster that would occur in 30 years that the country is still trying to recover from – or, depending on your perspective, creating the type of utopian society that we’ll never see again. One of the two. Pac-Man and the Brothers Mario burst onto the scene, creating a bold new medium of entertainment at the same time. A young upstart named Bruce Willis was stealing our hearts on the small screen and the large, starring in both Moonlighting on ABC and Die Hard in cinemas everywhere.
While everyone remembers exactly what happened to Bruce Willis in the decades since the 1980s (he lost his hair), there are a few notable names of the time that you might not be able to instantly identify what they’ve been up to. These are some of the biggest stars of the 1980s, who permeated popular culture in an incredible way. This begs the question: Where are they now?”
Let’s find out, shall we?
