Viola Davis

Viola Davis is arguably one of the most famous women in the world right now. As the recipient of the Triple Crown of Acting, it’s safe to say that her talent knows no bounds. Yet, she hasn’t always been at the top of the Hollywood food chain. Viola landed her first professional acting gig in 1996 when she took on minor role of “Woman” in the NYPD Blue episode, “Moby Greg.” Since then, she has wowed us all over as the lead role and producer of How to Get Away with Murder.

Milo Ventimiglia

Milo Ventimiglia seems to have risen through the ranks over the past few years. Whether you know him as Jess Mariano from Gilmore Girls, as Jack Pearson from This Is Us, or whether you just know him for the rather impressive ‘tache he’s now sporting, there’s no doubt about the fact that he is super famous. However, before he became a leading man, Milo took on the role of “Party Guest #1” in the Will Smith sitcom, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
