John Travolta got the world disco dancing - and helped sell white suits everywhere - as the hip-thrusting Tony Minero in "Saturday Night Fever" in the 70s; then he broke hearts as Danny Zuko in the musical made for the screen, "Grease," in the early 80s. Then came a string of flops in the 90s, and it seemed as though the once promising career of the Italian-American actor might be over. But it would be the comeback of the century when Travolta teamed up with Quentin Tarantino to produce the violent, quirky and ultimately, classic film, "Pulp Fiction." Since then Travolta's career seems to have gone from strength to strength and there has been no shortage of work for the actor with movies like "Wild Hogs," "Hairspray," "Ladder 49," and "The Punisher."

An incredible acrobat, Jackie Chan has been wowing audiences since the 1970's with his improvisational martial arts fighting style and comic timing. He still manages most stunts himself, a fact that has endeared him to fans of action films worldwide. He worked for ten years as an actor and stuntman in his homeland of China, enjoying great success, but never really established a foothold in the international market until 1995 with the movie, "Rumble in the Bronx, " which was followed by the hugely successful movie with Chris Tucker, "Rush Hour." After that, "Shanghai Noon" established Jackie as an action/comedy hero. Then it was back to the sequels to "Rush Hour," which have made him a household name - as well as a multi-millionaire.

As the gang from Disney's extremely popular High School Musical franchise prepare to graduate in the movie, "High School Musical 3," tweenies everywhere wonder what's to become of the actors that brought their favorite characters to life. This bio charts the rise of Zac Efron, from a school kid who had to chase girls to get them to go out with him, to the heart throb he is today, adored by millions of fans around the world. From the moment it was broadcast, "HSM" was a hit, propelling Efron, his co-star and girlfriend, Vanessa Hudgens, and the rest of the cast into the stratosphere. Soundtracks and sequels followed, and merchandise sales soared. Efron didn't stop at "HSM," however, joining the cast of the film "Hairspray." That movie was a hit, ensuring that Zac had a career outside of the franchise. At the premiere of "High School Musical 3," Zac and Vanessa told reporters they hoped that teens could relate to their characters' trials and tribulations in high school. For Efron, Hudgens, and the rest of the cast, however, it's off to the next challenge: establishing a career after "graduation."
50 Cent is an American rapper, entrepreneur, investor, and actor, whose rise to fame and fortune is an incredible story. Born Curtis James Jackson III on July 6, 1975, in a very poor and dangerous neighborhood in Queens, NY, his mother, Sabrina, was only 15 at the time of his birth; sadly, she reverted to dealing drugs to support her child and was mysteriously murdered when the boy was only eight. Curtis moved in with his grandparents, but spent most of his remaining youth dealing drugs, which made him a lot of money, but also landed him in jail, where his dream about making a career in music was born. After his release, he adopted his stage name "50 Cent" to reflect the change he was making with his life, and he began to record original Rap music. Somehow in 2000, he survived being shot nine times; then through sheer determination, he continued to record and in 2002 he collaborated with rappers Eminem and Dr. Dre to rapidly rise to fame with the release in 2003 of his album, "Get Rich or Die Tryin'," which has been certified platinum eight times, and "The Massacre," in 2005. Arising from a life of drugs and crime to become one of the biggest artists on the planet, his journey, as we see here, is an inspiration.
