That voice. That incredible, otherworldly voice. Whitney Houston was born with a gift so exceptional she was convinced it came from God. This bright-eyed kid from New Jersey — daughter to acclaimed soul singer Cissy Houston, cousin to Dionne Warwick and close family friend to Aretha Franklin — seemed destined for pop music royalty, and for more than a decade she bestrode the world as one of its biggest hit makers and Hollywood box-office draws.

...230) Celine Dion
Celine Dion has been such a consistent force in pop music for so long and was declared a legend so early ("My Heart Will Go On" from 1997's Titanic came out before Dion’s 30th birthday) that it is easy to take her for granted.

...From the moment they first met on July 6, 1957, John Lennon and Paul McCartney forged a bond that would change music forever.

...Michael J. Fox has stood tall among his peers for decades as one of the most beloved stars in the business. That’s not just because he’s an award-winning comedic genius who can wring a sly laugh out of any line of dialogue, or a charismatic presence on screens small (Family Ties) and big (Back to the Future). The truth is, the doting father of four (and husband to his TV sweetheart, Tracy Pollan) is also a public health crusader, tirelessly
...234) LIFE Betty White
Perhaps no one in American show business was more beloved than Betty White. Whether as the lively and bodacious Sue Ann Nivens on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, the naive but wholesome Rose Nylund on The Golden Girls, or the blunt Elka Ostrovsky on Hot in Cleveland, she commanded the screen with her perfectly timed humor and winking charm. But there was much more to Betty White than the vibrant icon who graced us with her presence for almost a century.

Don’t get us started on
...236) LIFE The Eagles
Days spent soaking up the Laurel Canyon vibe and nights spent jamming at the famous Troubadour bar in Los Angeles led the Eagles - whose founding fathers include Glenn Frey, Don Henley, Bernie Leadon, and Randy Meisner - to become the quintessential California band. Their music navigated dark desert highways, tequila sunrises, and beyond. Take it easy? The Eagles, unfortunately, failed to follow their own advice. They had glorious harmonies on
...Turning love and heartbreak into hit songs isn’t new—but arguably no one does it better than Taylor Swift. In 2023 alone, the singer’s career-spanning Eras Tour became the first to gross over $1 billion, she became the first living artist to have five top 10 albums at the same time on the Billboard 200, and she was named Time’s Person of the Year.
