Oh hey there. Remember Stanley, the annoying kid from That's So Raven who loved cheese sandwiches, had a very creepy crush on Raven, and lived next door to Eddie? Cast your mind back. Yep, that kid. The small one.

WELL. He looks pretty different these days, as first noticed by experts of 'child actors growing up notifications', Buzzfeed. Because, time. And the aging process. But seriously, we did not expect this. Here's what he looked like before, as Stanley on That's So Raven, in the form of a video clip to jog your memory:

And here he is today:

Oh.

His real name is Bobb'e J. Thompson. He's still acting, but now calls himself a rapper, too.

Here he is doing #4BarFriday.

And looking all grown up in glasses. And not much else.

TIME IS WEIRD.

On a related 'OMG that child actor I used to enjoy watching has aged and looks different and it's a reminder of my own oldness' note, Bobb'e is also up for some TV-themed nostalgia, saying he is whole-heartedly on board with a That's So Raven reunion, if anyone's interested.
