It’s been awhile since the Yearbooks Blog took a look back at an old celebrity yearbook photo, but we found one today on the website popcrush.com that we just had to share.
Any ideas who that Canadian singer is, based on her yearbook photo?

Take a look at this recent column by Gayle Faulkner Kosalko from The Times newspaper in Whiting, Ind., all about yearbooks and the interesting perspective they can provide on previous generations.
While doing some work at a museum, Faulkner Kosalko was able to go through yearbooks for local schools dating back to the 1940s, 1950s, even as far back as 1913.
The season premiere of Fox’s hit TV show Glee is only a week away. As part of the promotion of the new season, last week the network put out a series of “yearbook” class photos of the cast.
As a show about a high school choir group, it’s not the first time Glee has used a yearbook reference.
It’s always fun to go back to your old yearbooks and flip through the photos of you and your friends, just to see how times have changed.
Just as popular are old yearbook photos of celebrities, so we can all get a glimpse of their school days before they were famous. SI.com has done that this week with a new photo gallery of some famous athletes and images from their high school yearbooks.
It’s summer, and school might be on break, but yearbooks are still getting plenty of mentions in the Twitter-verse.
Things we learned this week – heartfelt signatures are always the best, the yearbook is a great place for aspiring photogs to show off their work and the yearbook can even help cure boredom during these dog days of summer.
May means yearbooks are starting to get delivered at spring distribution schools everywhere. In our latest Twitter update, you can see from the Tweets that students are excited about getting the book, looking back on the year and cherishing the memories.
@katesnow94 Today was the best ever! passed out yearbooks, had a pizza party, and looked at the yearbooks for hours:) #lifesgood
Recently on the JEA Digital Media blog, Jonathan Rogers posted a list of 118 informative Twitter feeds designed specifically to be a resource for high school journalists.
The list includes the Twitter feeds of several high school publications, organizations and advisers.
Plenty of people know model Brooklyn Decker, now that she’s one of the stars of the current hit movie Just Go With It starring Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston.
But not as many people probably know that Decker was a passionate yearbook staff member in high school not that long ago.
Our first yearbook update from the Twitterverse for the new year contains the normal dose of poignant reminders about what makes the yearbook so special. However, the Yearbooks Blog most certainly always endorses all fire safety practices!
@joeybroyles Going through high school yearbooks. Don’t miss high school? These yearbooks are one of the first things I’d run into a house on fire for.
Our frequent looks through the Twitter universe for all the chatter on yearbooks always show just how valuable they are in preserving memories. Besides, as this week’s entry shows, you will need that yearbook 10 years from now when your classmate ends up famous on TV.
@twhyrock BAHHHH! I just saw someone I went to MIDDLE SCHOOL with on TV. ripped thru all my yearbooks til i found her. C R A Z Y!
