At age 34, she's now the toast of Hollywood with a Best Actress Oscar to her name.

Born in Sacramento, California to chiropractor parents, the future star became the youngest student ever to be admitted to a training program at the American Conservatory Theater aged just six.

She began her acting career aged eight with a comedy sketch on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno - before landing a regular role in the 2001 sitcom, Raising Dad.

The multi-talented star even launched a short-lived music career - releasing an album in 2005.

She played a sassy minor role in an iconic Jennifer Garner coming-of-age comedy in 2004 - also starring alongside Ashley Benson.

She landed an Oscar aged 25 for her role in a chilling psychological thriller. 

So can you guess who she is?

It's Brie Larson! The star's acting pinnacle came in 2015 with the release of thriller Room - in which she played a kidnap victim who has spent seven years trapped in a filthy shed where she cares for her son (Jacob Tremblay), who was conceived when her abductor raped her. 

The blonde actress was homeschooled by her parents, who were both homeopathic chiropractors.

She suffered from painful shyness but nevertheless, at the age of six, became the youngest student to train at the American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco.

'My parents were chiropractors, and I was super shy. I wouldn’t let it go. Of course, it’s changed the course of my life in so many ways,' she said of her acting class.

'But at a time when I was so shy and had such a hard time expressing myself, at six years old, I was basically given, like: "OK, here’s a script for how you have a conversation,"' she explained. 'The actual fiber of how I understand how to have pleasant conversations with people is based upon weekly acting sessions.'

After her shot on The Tonight Show, Brie landed sporadic work on such projects as the sitcom Raising Dad and the films Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World and 21 Jump Street. 

She also released an album - Finally Out of P.E. in 2005. 

The star appeared in 2004 mega hit 13 Going On 30 alongside Jennifer Garner - playing one of teen Jenna's nasty friend group, the Six Chicks.
