Once upon a time, Claire Danes (who played Angela Chase) and Jared Leto (who played Jordan Catalano) co-starred on a ill-fated TV series called My So-Called Life which managed to strike a cord with viewers with its stark and honest portrayal of teen angst despite the fact that the show only lasted for one season. All these years after the show ended it’s run, Danes and Leto ran into each other again in London this week at the Elle Style Awards. Here are photos of Claire and Jared back when they were on My So-Called Life together and then at the Elle Style Awards this week:
I LOVE these two together … I am one of the legions of So-Called Life fans that still fondly remember the show. I didn’t watch it when it aired on ABC but became a fan when it ran in re-runs on MTV shortly after the show was canceled. My So-Called Life was the show that introduced the world to Jared Leto … and I dare you find a So-Called fan who wasn’t in love with Jordan Catalano. They both sure look different all these years later … but I think they still make a perfect match :)

I was so sad when this show was cancelled. I was in middle school and had pictures of Jared plastered all over my wall. I was so disappointed when he disappeared and then came back w/ the whole goth phase that he went through.
Man I am so friggin into his mohawk…dude rocks it like a hurricane.
Is it just me or does Jared Leto look like Jake Gyllenhaal in the recent picture? I mean, he doesn’t usually, but in profile, in this picture… and I still miss My So-Called Life.
in 9th grade I dyed my hair red like hers. I took some heat from my mom for that one…oh memories.
Oh man, I have such fond memories of that show! I used to make sure I was home every week to watch it. None of my friends were into it when it first came out, (but they fell in love later on) but my little 7th grade heart beat for Jordan Catalano :)
Awww Jordan Catalano. My heart belongs to him.
Thanks man funny stuff see you again on your blog
