Over four decades after she was snapped as a kid, the silver screen star took to Instagram to post the throwback photo in celebration of her birthday.

In the black-and-white photograph, a young, brunette schoolgirl with bangs and a cute summer dress.

The elementary school kid appeared to be standing up in her classroom while her friends sat down in chairs placed beside her.

With the same bright-eyed expression and girl-next-door look she is still known for today, the young child and future starlet smirked and raised her hand to flip her hair.

Can you guess who she is?

It’s A-lister Jennifer Aniston!  

The snapshot showed Aniston, now 56, when she was just a young child who did not know she would go on to become one of most well known actresses in Hollywood.

Although she has starred in many rom-coms and, most recently, in the award-winning Apple TV series, The Morning Show, she is famous for starring in Friends as the effortlessly stylish Rachel Green.

Aniston — who is perhaps also known for her timeless beauty and everlasting youthful glow — marked her 56th birthday on Tuesday, February 11.

On her Instagram page, she thanked her 44.6 million followers for their well wishes, which comes shortly after revealing her secret to aging so well and opening up about her favorite cosmetic procedures.

‘Thank you for all the beautiful birthday wishes! This kid is feeling very grateful and very loved,’ she wrote alongside confetti and red heart emojis.

This comes after Aniston admitted to dabbling with cosmetic procedures to accentuate her beauty and keep herself looking youthful.

Aniston, who was previously married to Brad Pitt for five years and then Justin Theroux for three — confessed she used to get Botox in the past but later said those injections were not for her.

Nowadays, she turns to peptide injections and salmon sperm facials for her fresh-faced glow, she confessed to Jimmy Kimmel last year on his late night talk show.

She also opened up about having an intense daily workout routine and how she does intermittent fasting to stay fit.

She also previously admitted that she got a nose job for a deviated septum in a 2007 interview with People.

‘Best thing I ever did… As far as all the other [rumors], as boring as it sounds, it’s still mine. All of it.’

Two years ago, Aniston also expressed her distaste for a specific compliment.

She told British Vogue in June 2023 that she dislikes being told: ‘You look good for your age.’

Her first roles were in TV shows during the late 1980s and early 1990s. She made her acting debut in 1988 with a guest appearance on the series Molloy before later appearing in 1990 sitcom Ferris Bueller and the 1992 comedy series The Edge

She told the outlet that she would rather be told: ‘You look great. Period.’

‘It drives me bananas. I can’t stand it.’

‘That’s a habit of society that we have these markers like, “Well you’re at that stage, so for your age…” I don’t even understand what it means,’ she said at the time.

‘I’m in better shape than I was in my twenties. I feel better in my mind, body, and spirit. It’s all 100 percent better,’ she said.
