The Brightest and Best of Famous Hollywood Actresses

By Chris Channing

When it comes to Hollywood acting, it isn't uncommon to find some of the most famous actresses of all time. Many Hollywood actresses are extremely famous and recognized by people around the world. These actresses are elite, and stand out from the rest.

Acting skill is what generally makes an actress famous. If she can take on a role and make the audience believe what they are seeing - she is considered a good actress and will likely become more famous. The older actresses of Hollywood have likely performed in many more films than younger stars, and therefore receive more recognition and fame. Sigourney Weaver is well known for her astounding roles in movies like Avatar, Wall-E, and Aliens. Her wide range of acting skill makes her one of the most famous actresses in Hollywood.

Of course, fame and fortune isn't everything. Despite all of the fame in the world, many of these actresses fall into traps of depression and substance abuse. Lindsay Lohan and other famous actresses have become better known for their bad habits than their good acting. Unfortunately this happens when too much fame takes hold and destroys their life.

Modern movies are quickly attracting Hollywood's youngest and brightest actresses. Kirsten Stewart is quickly gaining fame due to her role in the Twilight films. She is already a superstar to many teenagers and some adults. Her acting and tough exterior seem to draw in fans from around the world. Emma Watson is also one of such famous actresses, who has played in all of the Harry Potter movies as Hermione Granger. She isn't in many other movies, but she is quite famous for her acting and modeling.

Child actresses such as Abigail Breslin and Dakota Fanning continue to wow audiences with their astounding roles. These two actresses were known for profound roles, but as they get older their roles get darker and more grown up. In the future these two will likely continue to amaze viewers with more intense acting. Important roles Abigail Breslin fulfilled includes Little Miss Sunshine, and Zombieland. Dakota Fanning has made a spot for the Twilight Saga, and will also perform in The Runaways.

Hollywood Icons differ from Hollywood actresses. The Icons are the women that have been acting for years upon years, while the famous actresses are usually just well known. These A-List stars set themselves apart from the crowd because of their skill, personal life, and fashion. It's a combination that creates the 'wow' factor when they perform in movies.

Closing Comments

Even though they are famous, Hollywood stars are also regular people. They have more money and fame, but they still love the same things the rest of the world does. Their hard work and determination pay off - and their movies reflect that. - 29967
