Is there a human on this earth whose first Instagram post wasn't cringeworthy?

Since Instagram debuted almost a decade ago in October 2010, the way we post photos online has changed significantly. For instance, a lot of celebrities' first posts would today be relegated to the Story function — if they made it to Insta at all. Check out this incredibly random photo of Gary Vaynerchuk and a woman on Oprah's Instagram, captioned "me and my friends."

Me and friends

Suffice it to say, the things we post have changed a lot. And we've all gotten a lot better at Insta. Even the celebs had to start at the bottom. Check out how celebrities' first-ever Instagram photos compare to their more recent pics.

1. Channing Tatum was a regulation hottie...

These two genius composers came to hear my potty mouth tonight. I was blessed enough to go to high school with Anthony Cheung. When we were juniors in high school, he wrote a symphony that was performed at Davies Symphony Hall! My yearbook page was a collage of me partying in a tube top and a shrug (remember those and the Rocket Dog sandals?) Anthony’s yearbook page was a photo of himself at the age of 7, smiling, sitting crossed legged in front of Beethoven’s grave. So proud of him and Wong Lu!

14. Naomi Campbell dedicated her first pic to Nelson Mandela.

View this post on Instagram

Nelson Mandela has stood as a figure of strength, hope, freedom, selflessness and love, and I join everyone across the world in mourning his passing. However, he was much more than just a figurehead to me - he was my mentor, my honorary grandfather, my Tata. Since meeting him in 1993, he's guided me and gave me a reason for being in the tough times of my life. He changed my perception of the world. It will take time to come to terms with his absence, but I know his energy and impact will forever be in the core of my spirit My heart goes out to the entire Mandela family - Mama Graca, Mama Winnie, Zindzi, Malengani, Josina and the rest of the family. #RIPNelsonMandela

Life and all the responsibilities it brings - father, husband, boss, friend etc - it all drives the never ending strategy to do our best to find balance, which is always much easier said than done. Drive, work ethic, ambition, focus, accountability, harmony, humility, gratitude, love. To me, it will always come down to your family, the quality people you surround yourself with and the culture you create.
