18. Justin Timberlake
Justin Timberlake is able to croon out ballads and stomp out smooth R&B hits like no other. He totally killed it in the boy band NSYNC and then he morphed into his own superstar singer with a solid solo career. And he does tons of other stuff, too! So it was a bit of a surprise to learn that JT had ADHD. But he does! He also has OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder.) Wow. How does he manage to still be amazing on top of it all? Well, it is frustrating, but with the right treatment, he is able to live an ordinary life (or rather, an extraordinary life!) While he keeps it under wraps, he is not ashamed to speak out about it.
17. Jim Carrey
With his wit and comedic vigor, Jim Carrey stole the hearts of moviegoers everywhere. He has appeared in tons of funny movies and is one of the most comedic actors in Hollywood. Yet he has said that his ADHD has kept him up at night and made him feel like he is about to explode. It is hard for the actor to concentrate, and that can be a real bummer when he needs to be on the set for hours at a time. However, many people with ADHD are often the creative type, and are very good with being extroverted and willing to explore. So there is a trade-off.
