At 59 years old, George Clooney has reached a level of stardom few actors ever will. While the medical drama E.R. was undoubtedly his big break, Clooney has gone on to star in (and direct and write and produce) several films, become an influential activist and humanitarian, co-found a tequila company, marry human rights lawyer Amal Alamuddin, and father twins. But prior to achieving all that, Clooney was just one of countless actors trying to crack into the business. In the '80s, becoming People's Sexiest Man Alive was just a twinkle in his eye, but he was already working quite a bit, appearing on shows like The Facts of Life, Murder She Wrote, and Baby Talk. At some point during that era, George Clooney also posed for this incredible vintage photoshoot, featuring wardrobe, props, and poses that are delightfully dated. Click through to see some of our favorite images of Clooney ever taken, and remember that most A-Listers weren't born that way.

Is this backdrop meant to be the young actor's home? If so, are we meant to think he has framed copies of his own headshot decorating his walls? We'll let the Facts of Life cast photo slide, because who wouldn't brag about being on that show?

There's big Vanna White energy in this photo. That tracks, considering Clooney has gone on to do commercials for several high-end brands.

Hmmm yes! That hair and chin. He loves the camera and it loves him. But those shirts!

Katie, I'm with you! His wardrobe was a lot more colorful back then. Now he's just a bit too fashion-icon chic. I wonder if he even owns anything that isn't a neutral color.

Re: You Have to See This Incredible, Totally '80s George Clooney Photoshoot HE WASN'T ALWAYS THE SUAVE A-LISTER HE IS TODAY.
I dunno if he's intentionally fashion icon chic. I think it's more that he discovered the safe clothes to wear back in the 90s and hasn't changed anything since.
If I remember rightly, it was Sarah Larson who possibly talked him into the 'slim fit' men's shirts that he occasionally still wears. And so far no woman - not even Amal! - has been able to get him out of his grandpa jeans. Sigh.
