Nowadays, Ryan Reynolds is one half of a crazy-cute Hollywood couple, but Ryan first found fame in the '90s, long before he became Blake Lively's significant other. In the era of Two Guys and a Girl and Van Wilder, he made multiple appearances on MTV's TRL, wore some very '90s tinted glasses, and hung out with stars like Keri Russell, Jessica Biel, and his ex Alanis Morissette.
