No matter how nostalgic you feel, it’s hard not to admit that the 2000s were a decade of cringe. Recently, the BuzzFeed Community shared the pop culture moments from the ’00s that they shudder the most thinking about, and it’s low-key impossible to make it through the list without going into full body cringe…
1.
“Christina Aguilera’s style choices “
2.
“Britney and Justin. 2001 VMAs. All that denim.”
3.
“The Superbowl where Justin Timberlake ripped off Janet Jackson’s bra. Unexpected and cringey. Why would they invite him back to do the 2018 halftime show?!”
4.
“Britney being chased by paparazzi constantly. Truly awful.”
5.
“Literally any time a teenage girl was asked about her virginity.”

“Ashley Simpson being caught lip-syncing on SNL.”

“[The Office episode] ‘Scott’s Tots.’ Full stop”
10.
“It crosses over into the 2010s, but How I Met Your Mother has aged terribly.”

15.
“So many movies that haven’t aged well, but the one that comes to mind most is Shallow Hal. Can’t believe I thought it was funny at the time.”
16.
And finally, “Definitely Tom Cruise jumping on Oprah’s couch. Everything about that relationship with Katie Holmes, really.”
