Whatever Happened To... Brandy

Moesha Mitchell was a Los Angeles girl struggling to cope with a difficult stepmother and the increasing pressures of becoming a woman - boy, did we love her.

She disappeared from our screens in 2001 and while the actress who portrayed her, Brandy Norwood, continued her acting and singing career, we're not 100% sure what's become of her since the early Noughties.

A Texas charity filed a lawsuit against Brandy in January 2014 for backing our of a show last minute.

4. Kim Kardashian styled her

After singer Brandy appears on a worst-dressed list in 2004, Kim Kardashian was hired as her personal stylist. Riiight. We're not sure we'd trust a woman who dresses like this to dress us...
