This Is Us star Chrissy Metz took to Instagram to take part in the 10 Year Challenge, and followers were stunned by the difference in the pictures. Metz, who rose to stardom on the hit NBC show, has changed a lot over the last ten years.
The side-by-side photos show off Metz’s style evolution, from clothes to hairstyle. “I am still obsessed with makeup it’s just that now I know how to apply it,” she joked in her caption. In the older picture, Metz is showing off some serious winged eyeliner. She also has darker, curly hair and is wearing a pink tube top and a choker.

Metz has been starring on This Is Us for the last six years, but that’s soon coming to an end. The critically-acclaimed show is airing its final season, and fans aren’t the only ones who are sad to say goodbye.
“Ain’t nobody mentally prepared [to say goodbye]. You can’t be!” Metz told Page Six on the red carpet for the show’s premiere at Paramount Studios in Los Angeles. “I personally cannot be mentally prepared for something that’s completely changed my life in ways that I never, ever, ever thought it would.”
Justin Hartley, who plays Metz’s brother on the show, along with Sterling K. Brown, agreed, saying, “I’ve decided I’m not going to say goodbye to him. Nope, I’m going to keep my trailer here, and I’m moving in! He’ll be with me forever, I think.”
Obviously, it’s sad to think that you’re not going to play Kevin Pearson,” he continued. “I love him, and I love playing him. I love this family, I love the show, but life goes on. And we have a lot of good stuff coming up for you all.”
That “good stuff” includes lots of plot twists for the characters. Metz teased what’s coming next for her character, Kate, after the Season 5 bombshell revealed that she and onscreen partner Toby split — and that Kate’s preparing to walk down the aisle with someone new.
“Oh, [Kate’s] gonna have a season!” Metz shared. “I think that’s what’s so amazing, is the way that they both have impacted each other’s lives. You keep that with you forever. You’re forever changed by moments and memories and people.”
“So, I think they’ll always be in each other’s lives and always respect and love each other,” she continued. “But the unraveling, it’s going to be hard, and I think people are going to understand that nobody’s right, nobody’s wrong. It’s like, you either grow together, or you grow apart.”
