After the 47-year-old heartthrob teased a possible Supernatural reunion, Fallon brought up Ackles’ childhood modeling career, revealing one of the actor’s earliest shoots: a catalog spread for JCPenney.
Ackles blushed as Fallon unveiled the photos, which showed a young Jensen—then in his tweens or early teens—posing with a Sony Walkman and, in another photo, wearing a Panama Jack T-shirt with a sideways baseball cap. The throwbacks captured peak ’90s fashion, complete with shoulder pads and high-waisted pants.
