Soulja Boy - My how fast they've grown! It may be hard to believe but several of today's brightest stars were born in the 90s. That still might sound young but these stars are growing before our eyes, perhaps a little faster than we'd like. For instance, Soulja Boy, the head of the '90s Babies class was only 16 when his self-produced "Crank That" topped the charts for seven non-consecutive weeks back in 2007. Now the once bright-eyed teen is fighting off drug charges in Georgia at age 21. Although he's not the exemplary model for youthful fame, here are some of the other 90s babies. (Photo: Robb D.

Jaden Smith - Since his breakthrough role in 2006's The Pursuit of Happyness, Jaden Smith is perhaps best known for his starring role in 2010's remake The Karate Kid. Although he dabbles in rap most notably with his friend pop superstar Justin Bieber, he's an established actor even if he was only born on July 8, 1998.(Photo: Kevin Winter/Getty Images)
