    Kelly’s voice? Absolutely killer. She won American Idol but fun fact: she said no to two record deals before that, just waiting for the right fit. Now she’s rocking charts, TV talk shows, and even writing kids’ books inspired by her daughter. Multi-tasking queen!

    This guy broke all the fashion rules and made it look cool. Remember Madonna’s famous cone bra? Yep, that was him. Plus, he co-hosted a wacky British TV show filled with all sorts of oddball stuff. Style icon and TV star? Yes, please.
