Amy Winehouse told us her life story through her songs, and did it like no other artist had before. The song ‘Rehab’, which literally talked about her experience in going to drug rehabilitation, became instantly famous, breaking several world records.
Winehouse joined the infamous 27 club when she passed away in 2011. She was revered by greats, like Bob Dylan and Tony Bennett, and definitely left us way too early.
Eminem
“Slim Shady” is not only an incredibly skilled storyteller and rapper, but also a great actor.
He surprised us all in his debut performance in ‘8 Mile’, which was loosely based on his life growing up in Detroit. Whatever he decides to do next, we hope he keeps that hair short and blonde!
Wait…. it’s… it’s…
She may look like an awkward little girl with messy hair and funny teeth, but she had the same sparkle in her eye back then - that crazy beautiful gaze that made her so special. It’s the one and only, Amy Winehouse.
She quickly grew out of those pigtails and went on to become the first ever female British singer to win 5 Grammy Awards. She went on to win several other awards; Winehouse was beloved for her one-of-a-kind, heartbreaking soul vocals and her crass, honest personality. She didn’t apologize for who she was, and we loved her for it.
One Crazy Transformation
Could you ever have imagined that this chubby, serious looking kid would go on to become one of the most famous British stand-up comedians and movie actors in the world?! We couldn’t have! Russell Brand definitely went through a big transformation since high-school.
Brand has admitted in several occasions that he was a very lonely child with a very difficult upbringing. He suffered from Bulimia, an issue he’s been struggling with over the years.
Russell Brand
To us, Russell Brand is a perfect example of how you can do anything you put your mind to. He has not only become a great actor, a hilarious comedian, a famous radio host and involved political activist, but he’s dated the stunning Kate Moss and is married to the talented and beautiful Katy Perry.
And if you’ve ever seen him alongside Jonah Hill in ‘Get Him To The Greek’, you’ll love him forever for making you laugh so hard.
