James Blunt

Blunt’s father served as a colonel in the British Army Air Corps, which may explain his own involvement in the army before his music career. As a child he attended the prestigious British independent school Harrow. Following a military subsidised university education Blunt served in the British Army before achieving worldwide fame with his hit debut single, ‘You’re Beautiful’. He has since sold over 20-million albums worldwide and has accrued a huge Twitter following thanks to his sharp wit and cutting putdowns to haters.

While Blunt argues growing up in wealth does not advantage people to gain a head start in the entertainment industry, looking at this list it is difficult to argue it does not help just a tiny bit.
