Ah, young love. 

Jaden Smith and Kylie Jenner are the latest young stars to actually become a couple.

But with this small step towards love, they have some big shoes to fill. You see, the youngsters have always made up some of the best couples in the Hollywood game. 

From Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears, to Bow Wow and Ciara, and even Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez, young hip-pop pairs get us excited at the prospect of seeing iconic couples blossom from the beginning.  

We decided to take a look back at some of our favorite young couples. While this love normally doesn’t last, it does help our hip-pop heroes lay a foundation for love in the future.

So here’s to helping out!

Young Nick Cannon dated young Christina Milian back in the day, before Nick admitted to cheating on her. These two ripped the red carpets together before he settled down Mariah Carey. 

Jordin Sparks and Steph Jones were a hot item back in 2009. Unfortunately they didn’t last, but when they were together they did a ton of cool stuff, like dressing up as characters from “Thriller,” hanging courtside and even snapping flicks of people taking their flick.

Brandy was with Kobe Bryant shooting in the gym, and the superstar even went to the basketball player’s high school prom. Then they broke up, Kobe met Vanessa and they’ve been together ever since. 

Miley Cyrus and Nick Jonas were the prince and princess of personal photos together during their Disney days. Then they grew up, Miley started dating Thor’s brother and eventually he asked her to marry him. 

Back in 2007, Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens couldn’t keep their hands off each other. They met on the set of High School Musical and were quite the popular couple until Zac grew up, and Vanessa became a bohemian wild child with Austin Butler. 

Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez were the cutest couple of them all and there’s no doubt that Jaden bagged some dating tips from his bro JB. Sadly, these two recently called it quits after trying very hard to make it work.

Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears sparked a revolution of young love. The world just couldn’t get enough of these two and they pretty much laid the groundwork for iconic pop star couples. But like most celeb couples, these two ended when Justin told Britney to cry him a river.

Who knew that when Ciara was dating Bow Wow, Future would be in her future? Bow Wow and CiCi made their love known for one another with a duet “Like You,” but moved on as they got older.

Alright, Blue Ivy and Egypt were never officially an item; Hov shut that down when the young son of Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz kissed Blue. But who knows what could blossom in the future…
