2. Molly Ringwald
She was the ultimate girl next door who mixed a cuteness, wry sense of humor, intelligence and that bit of charisma that made every guy want to date her and girl want to be here. With movies like Pretty in Pink and The Breakfast Club on her resume, she could have easily never worked once she got too old for roles as a teenager. She didn’t make the transition into adult roles in blockbusters, but did OK the following years in straight-to-video and independent films. In 1995, she went topless for about two seconds in the movie Malicious and that’s the only nudity she has ever done in film. These days, she’s doing well in basic cable TV series like The Secret Life of the American Teenager, finally playing Mom roles with actresses who were her age when she made it big.
