MICHELLE TRACHTENBERG

Not many people can say that they became a celebrity when they were only three years old. This is the case for Michelle Trachtenberg, who has gone on to be a familiar face. The actress made a name for herself by starring in Harriet the Spy, Meego, EuroTrip, and All My Children. She landed her first TV appearance for an ad for Wisk detergent when she was still just a toddler. A lot of people will also remember her performances in TV shows such as Gossip Girl, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and The Adventures of Pete & Pete. While you do not often see her in recent projects, we bet that this is nothing but a temporary hiatus.
