1. Eddie Murphy -- Michael Jackson
   As an entertainment institution powerful enough to call his own shots, Murphy branched out from movies into the recording industry. His first album, 1984's How Could It Be?, went gold and featured a spin-off hit, "Party All the Time," and his 1989 release, So Happy, displayed his perfectionism and musical gifts. "While most of the songs are as sexually raunchy as anything ever put on vinyl, Murphy's vocal talent and the overall quality of the recording are better than 95 percent of the stuff flooding record stores these days," Charles L. Sanders wrote in Ebony. A third album, Love's Alright, debuted in October of 1992 and featured the single "Yeah!," a collaboration with such pop superstars as Paul McCartney, Janet Jackson, and Hammer. The song's proceeds were to be donated to Yeah!, the charitable foundation that was founded by Murphy.

5. Brittany Murphy -- Alicia Silverstone

6. Audie Murphy -- North Africa
   The role movie star Audie Murphy played in front of the cameras in 1955 was the same role that he played as a real combat soldier in North Africa, Italy and France a decade earlier. The big difference was that the first time around the guns were real, there was no script and the ending was not known.
7. Audie Murphy -- War
   [One] notable aspect of Audie Murphy's legacy is the collection of films in which he appeared,[1] some having been re-released as DVD videos. [4] Because of Murphy's initial fame as a war hero, his military influence is often more noted than that of other contemporary Hollywood-actor servicemen, such as James Stewart, Karl Malden, and Elvis Presley. Audie Murphy appeared in 33 Hollywood westerns,[1] but those films are not all formula-style pictures, as they include a range of productions spanning 20 years, including The Cimarron Kid, Destry, The Duel at Silver Creek (1952), No Name on the Bullet (1959) and A Time for Dying (1969).
8. Christopher Michael
   Christopher Michael Sullivan’s practice is a theatrical exploration into the production of culture.

10. Michael Landon -- Highway To Heaven
    After producing both the Father Murphy TV series and a movie, Sam's Son, Landon went on to star in another successful television series. On Highway to Heaven, he played Jonathan Smith, a probationary angel whose job was to help people in order to earn his angel wings. His co-star on the show was Victor French (who previously co-starred on Landon's Little House on the Prairie) as ex-cop, Mark Gordon. NBC didn't feel the show would last very long, but it too proved to be another hit for Landon.
