LINDSAY LOHAN

While she was by no means a newbie by then, Lindsay Lohan became a household name when she starred in Mean Girls in 2004. The hilarious high school flick made her the teen queen of that era after it grossed $67 million. The actress has been working in the industry since she was three years old and has since appeared in more than 60 commercials for Wendy’s, Ford, The Gap, and more. She edged out Scarlett Johansson to play the twins we all know and love from The Parent Trap. In 2003, she was also in Freaky Friday with Jamie Lee Curtis. She went on to star in Herbie: Fully Loaded and Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen. The actress worked on Project Runway and Ugly Betty as well. Did you know that she launched a line of jeans called 6126? Sadly, the actress has been dealing with many personal problems.
