Now, who needs an introduction for one of the most known faces of the 90s and one of the most sought-after actresses in film history? Ryder did her most notable and memorable works during the 90s and took the world by storm with her innocent face and fierce acting. She made thousands of fans after her appearances in ‘Edward Scissorhands,’ ‘Mermaids and Girl,’ ‘Girl, Interrupted,’ ‘Bram Stoker’s Dracula,’ and ‘Reality Bites.’
Her extraordinary performance in ‘The Age of Innocence’ won her the prestigious Golden Globe in 1993 for Best Supporting Actress. Oh, and girls, wanna go green with envy? Ryder dated heartthrob Johnny Depp for quite some time, and the two were even engaged for a while but never married. She is now in a relationship with businessman Scott Mackinlay Hahn.
Naomi Campbell
Campbell started her modeling career at the young age of fifteen, and it brought her overnight stardom. She reached fame so quickly that within a year, the prestigious British Elle magazine had her for their cover! However, unfortunately, she was subjected to racial discrimination by a few people, although many in the industry stood in support of her.
Though she tried her hand at singing and writing, Campbell was never as successful as she was in modeling. From then onward, the famous model decided to take the matter into her own hands and launched her own line of perfumes, judged reality shows on TV, and acted in series like ‘American Horror Story,’ and ‘Empire.’
Jenna Von Oy
Jenna stormed into our lives in the late 1980s through a number of films and TV shows. But her rise to stardom was not instant like some of her contemporaries. Jenna’s breakthrough role was when she portrayed Six Lemure in ‘Blossom’ for five long years.
Right after that, much to the disappointment of her fans, Jenna decided to take a break from acting after ‘Blossom.’ She went to university to study film, but didn’t finish the degree! Ironic, eh? Though she returned to the silver screen after an interval of two years, sadly, her career never bloomed again.
Gwyneth Paltrow
Born to actress Blythe Danner and producer Bruce Paltrow, Gwyneth was born in a silver crib! In 1996, she got the offer to act in the cinematic adaptation of Jane Austen’s ‘Emma,’ and the world welcomed her into the film industry after seeing her incredible talent. Two years later, Paltrow did the romantic drama, ‘Sliding Doors,’ and got many dynamic offers since then.
This Hollywood starlet had her name attached to the likes of ‘Se7en’, ‘Shakespeare in Love,’ ‘Great Expectations,’ and ‘The Talented Mr. Ripley.’ She has also acted in the Marvel hit ‘Iron Man.’ Many people remember her for the spicy gossip about her hook-ups with high-profile Hollywood men like Ben Affleck and Brad Pitt. Though she married Coldplay’s lead singer, Chris Martin, in 2003, her marriage ended in 2016. In 2018, Gwyneth married longtime partner Brad Falchuk, an American television writer, director, and producer.
Janet Jackson
Jackson could never reach the stardom level of her late brother, the phenomenal Michael Jackson. Now, that is indeed difficult, isn’t it? However, she did deliver some fantastic hits in the 90s, with two of her albums — ‘Janet’ and ‘The Velvet Rope.’ After this, people came to know her name slowly because of her own creations, and not just because of her sensational brother.
Right in the initial phase of her career, she acted in two record-breaking films, which hit the multi-million club! Alongside Tupac Shakur, she co-starred in ‘Poetic Justice.’ Jackson married Wissam Al Mana and had her first baby at the age of fifty! She has since separated from her husband in a very public divorce, and the two now share custody of their son.
