10. John Travolta
John Travolta was an icon of the latter part of the 1970s, and came to prominence in cult classics like Saturday Night Fever, Grease, and Urban Cowboy. John also had a budding musical career with the Billboard single, “Let Her In.” Unfortunately, Travolta struggled to remain relevant throughout the 1980s, but got a second chance at fame after appearing in Quentin Tarantino’s hit flick Pulp Fiction for which he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor in a Lead Role. He wound up landing some other A-list gigs in Get Shorty, for which he won a Golden Globe, Face/Off, Thin Red Line, and Swordfish. He even had the chance to return to his singing and dancing roots with the film production of Hairspray, which earned him a Golden Globe nomination. This year he will appear in American Crime Story, I am Wrath, and In a Valley of Violence.
