Each week, you can find Instagram inundated with #WCW hashtags from thirsty men hoping to recapture that grade school magic by confessing their crushes. Since it actually helped Nick Young bag Iggy Azalea, it’s hard to knock the hustle.
In the spectrum of the more innocent types of Woman Crush Wednesdays, we take a look at some of our favorite crushes from the ‘90s and see how they’ve held up and what they’re currently doing.

Laura Winslow from Family Matters
Kellie Shanygne Jackson popped up in a bunch of titles post Family matters including Ride and The Parkers. Her last IMDB credit was for a short entitled Aide-de-Camp.
Vanity from Vanity 6 and The Last Dragon
Denise K. Matthews went the evangelical route, but she’s quite active on Twitter and Facebook if you’re looking to follow someone with inspirational quotes (or who can sell you some player’s edition Jordans).
Six from Blossom / Stevie from The Parkers
Jenna Von Oy’s last big role was in 2006’s Dr. Doolittle 3. But when she’s not parenting, you can find Von Oy in the upcoming Blossom reunion.
Jasmine Guy
Guy recently was part of Oprah Winfrey’s A Different World reunion special, but she stays busy with roles in The Vampire Diaries and If Loving You Is Wrong.
Rachel True
Roles in Half & Half and Half Baked kept True from being typecast on the strength of The Craft. She’s also credited with a role in the TV movie Sharknado 2: The Second One.
Rosie Perez
We’ll always remember Tina from Do The Right Thing, but these days Academy Award-nominated Rosie Perez is holding it down as the first Latina co-host of The View.

En Vogue
Phife Dawg from A Tribe Called Quest wasn’t the only one who had a crush on Dawn from En Vogue. Lucky for him and all of us, Dawn Robinson, Cindy Herron, Maxine Jones, and Terry Ellis occasionally still perform together as En Vogue.

Robin Givens
After starring in Head Of The Class, Boomerang and as Mike Tyson’s Wife, Robin Givens is still racking up acting credits. She’s recently appeared on The Game and on 90210.
Taral Hicks
Belly and A Bronx Tale gave Taral Hicks classic status. These days, she’s still singing, acting, and parenting (but probably not in that order).
Topanga from Boy Meets World
Danielle Fishel stars in the Boy Meets World reboot Girl Meets World and made all of our collective jaws drop by chilling with Donald Glover in his short film Clapping For All The Wrong Reasons.

Lark Voorhies
Aside from making random public appearances (sometimes with bad makeup) Lark Voorhies is still acting. She’s slated to appear in TV series The Comeback Kids.

Kelly Bundy from Married With Children
Christina Applegate beat breast cancer and got big laughs in the Anchorman movie series as well as The Sweetest Thing and Up All Night.

Alyssa Milano
Samantha Micelli from Who’s The Boss? grew up, became a mother and locked down roles in Charmed and Poison Ivy II. Alyssa Milano currently has a role in the TV series Mistresses.

Stacey Dash
Dionne from Clueless initially won all our hearts by looking ridiculously fine over 40 and appearing in videos by Rick Ross and Kanye West. Dash is currently a conservative pundit for Fox News.
“Damita” from Class Act
Aside from holding down mommy duties, Alysia Rogers from Class Act and Boyz N The Hood has appeared in a series of shorts including Beyond Merritt and Before Now.
