If you’re anything like me, you’ll have to rack your brains to recall the name Angus T. Jones.
Yet the moment I say “Jake” from Two and a Half Men… that’s right, if you’ve ever watched that show, you’ll instantly remember the adorable, witty young man who lived with his father, Alan Harper (Jon Cryer), and uncle, Charlie (Charlie Sheen).
You also might get to wondering just what happened to the actor who played him (the aforementioned Angus T. Jones). At one point in time, it seemed as though the child actor was a burgeoning star with a terrific career ahead of him in the entertainment industry.
Yet these days sighting for Jones are few and far between. He practically dropped off the radar after his time on Two and a Half Men ended more than a decade ago, and his last credited TV appearance was on a 2016 episode of Horace and Pete.
That could be why a recent shot of the now-30-year-old is causing such a stir. The former child star looks absolutely unrecognizable in the picture in question!
It appeared to be one of TV’s great mysteries at the time, why Angus T. Jones went dark after leaving Two and a Half Men.
During his run with the show, the previously unheralded Jones had become one of the highest-paid child actors on television – he reportedly made $300,000 for each episode during the height of the sitcom. Then, over ten years ago, he left the show, before announcing in 2012 that he had no intention of returning for its 11th season.
Speaking in a 2014 interview with KHOU, he Jones said: “It was making light of topics in our world that are really problems for a lot of people.
“I was a paid hypocrite because I wasn’t OK with it, but I was still doing it.”
As per reports, Angus did a lot of soul-searching in 2012, which led to him finding a new religious path and rediscovering his faith.
He joined the Seventh-day Adventist church, a Protestant Christian church known for its decidedness to diet and health and its conservative principles and lifestyle.
These days, many have forgotten about the fresh-faced youngster who entertained millions with his charm and philosophical lines. Angus reportedly moved to Colorado and studied religion at the University of Colorado Boulder.
“Going to college was something I was really, really excited about,” he told People in 2016.
He added: “I wasn’t the center of everyone’s attention, and that was nice.”
Recently, though, a new image of the ex-child star has surfaced, and it’s one that has got a lot of people talking online.
In the picture, the once fresh-faced, clean-shaven Jones sported a thick beard and glasses, with many shocked by the apparent transformation he’s undergone over the years!
According to Page Six, Jones looked, “unrecognizable.”
One commenter claimed that he, “Doesn’t look healthy.”
One user wrote, “[…] What happened to him!!” “He became one and a half men,” remarked one individual.
However, many of his fans also defended Jones writing, “Of course, he’s unrecognizable…he was a kid on the show and it’s years later.”
What do you think? Has Angus T. Jones changed that much since the ending of Two and a Half Men?

Man Spends $70K To Tattoo His Full Body And Eyeballs, Reveals What He Looked Like Before
In an astonishing testament to his unique spirit, Quest Gulliford, a TikTok sensation known for his resilience as a cancer survivor and adorned with a vast array of tattoos, is capturing attention with his latest viral video. Not only does he reveal his intricate full-body artwork, but he also showcases his bold choice of dyeing his eyes.
Having triumphed over Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, Gulliford has poured a staggering $70,000 into his tattoo collection since embarking on his inked odyssey in 2009. His recent TikTok post provides an immersive glimpse into his journey, particularly highlighting the intense mental preparation required for undergoing eyeball tattooing.
Reflecting on the risks involved, Gulliford emphasized: “It was a gamble, but one that I had been longing for… and I’m still absolutely delighted with the outcome three years down the line”.
His dedication to his distinctive mode of self-representation surpasses the $70,000 mark, with an eye-popping $10,000 designated solely for the metamorphosis of his gaze.
Recalling the mental endurance needed during the eyeball tattoo session in Houston, Texas, Gulliford confessed: “It was quite the internal battle, even after stepping foot into the studio, to muster the courage to proceed”. This nonconformist process entails a needle traversing all angles of the eyeball, resembling more of an alteration or enhancement than a conventional skin-deep tattoo.
In an unexpected development, Gulliford unveiled his intention to revisit the same tattoo artist next month, signaling his unwavering dedication to exploring the boundaries of self-expression.
Amidst the intricate tapestry of ink decorating his body, Gulliford proudly bears symbols of his victorious battle against cancer. From the inaugural tattoo, a cross etched on his chest bearing the inscription ‘God First’, to a poignant purple ribbon commemorating his seventh-grade confrontation with Hodgkins Lymphoma, each design narrates a tale of resilience.
Reflecting on the health journey that inspired his tattoos, Gulliford recounted: “I noticed a sizable lymph node… I didn’t think much of it. It led to about six months of chemotherapy. After that, I felt like I possessed superhuman strength”.
During a candid conversation with Inked magazine in 2019, Gulliford shared his venture into facial tattoos, a decision made at the tender age of 18, much to his mother’s initial dismay. Though she gradually came to terms with smaller facial inkings, the prospect of larger designs on a more prominent canvas sparked her concerns, leading to interventions at tattoo parlors in hopes of dissuading artists from executing extensive facial artwork.
Quest Gulliford’s unabashed odyssey of self-expression, forged through trials and tribulations, continues to enthrall audiences, underscoring the notion that sometimes, the most extraordinary tales find their canvas on our skin.
