Each episode of Made, which premiered in 2002, focused on one person who wanted to fulfill their ultimate dream, from being a dancer to being a ladies’ man. With help from a celebrity coach, the participant was given just two weeks to fulfill their superstar goals. We watched as tomboys walked in their first pair of high heels and cringed when we watched nerds try to ask the popular cheerleader to the dance. For a time when reality TV was still fresh and new, it was endlessly captivating.

But more importantly, as viewers watched each participant struggle, cry, and fight through all the hardships to make their goals a reality, it became impossible not to cheer them on and develop a close connection with them — one that was hard to forget.

Curious to see what the rest of the Made kids are up to? Check out the gallery below to see where they are today.

Ryan Bowers (Season 11)

Ryan was the class clown who wanted to become a rapper. With a little help from rapper Homeboy Sandman, he was able to write and perform an original rap song by the end of the show. And apparently, his experience on Made paid off!

Today, Ryan raps professionally. You can check out some of his music here.

Tony (Season 3)

He was a nerd who wanted to be turned into a ladies' man — and he was one of the first participants to do so. Today, he's a married dad of three — and it looks like he no longer has any problems with the ladies.

Chris “Fronz” Fronzak (Season 7)

He was a bearded rocker who wanted to be made into a model to boost his self-esteem. Today, he's the frontman of metalcore band Attila and is a legit celebrity. The glow up is real!

Michelle (Season 9)

She was the shy, pig-tailed student who wanted to become a bass player in a rock band. She even got a cool makeover at the end of the show. Today, she lives in Dallas where she works as a claims adjuster.

Brian (Season 6)

He was a nerd who was super into games and wanted to be made into a ladies' man. With help from coach Tariq Nasheed, he managed to trim a few pounds and even get the courage to ask out a cute girl (who rejected him).

Today, it looks like the lessons have paid off! He now lives in Arizona where he's the co-founder of Game Kingdom, which is—you guessed it—a games store.

Bryttni (Season 6)

She wanted to be made into a dancer, but viewers might remember her best for her wigs. On the show, she revealed she suffered from a disorder that made her lose all her hair.

In 2008, she was arrested and charged with prostitution at a strip club. In her defense, she said she wasn't selling sex, she was simply charging for lap dances. Today, she lives in Austin, TX where she works as a server.

Hallie (Season 8)

She was the friendly but preppy ginger who wanted to be made into a hip-hop dancer. Today, although she doesn't have much of a social media presence, she's currently engaged and looks to have given up her hip-hop aspirations.

8 of 11

Andrew (Season 8)

He was a Star Wars nerd who wanted to be made into a rocker. With help from coach Sammy James, Jr., he managed to gain enough confidence to rock out in front of his entire school. In fact, the experience went so well, it went straight to his head.

"Yeah, I went from being quite nerdy, wearing plain tennis shoes, to very expensive jackets and a $400 haircut with red gold through my hair," he said in 2016.

However, these days the South Carolina native says he tries to remain more humble. And no, he no longer makes music.

9 of 11

Angie (Season 11)

She was the tomboy who wanted to be made into a beauty pageant winner. Even with a nickname like "Mangie" she managed to compete in a pageant and even walk in heels! Today, she lives in St. Louis where she's the general manager at Andy's Frozen Custard

10 of 11

Julia

She was the shy, bullied girl who wanted to become a hardcore metal vocalist to boost her self-confidence. She was the only Made kid who wanted to be a professional metal screamer, which made her episode particularly rememberable.

Today, she's an aspiring graphic designer/artist who lives in Missouri.
