1. Michelle Phillips -- John Phillips
   Michelle Phillips actually sang better than “just fine,” and her sweet and soaring soprano would become an important element in the trademark Mamas & Papas sound. But it was John’s creative spark that would drive the quartet to its artistic heights.
2. Ben Stiller -- Owen Wilson
   On today's "Ellen", Ben Stiller comments on the health of longtime friend and frequent co-star Owen Wilson, who was hospitalized in August after attempting suicide. Stiller says Wilson is doing "really well".
3. Luke Wilson -- Brothers
   Luke Wilson and his brothers Owen and Andrew may not be this century's answer to the Barrymores, but they do represent a new comedic dynasty in Hollywood. Born Dec. 21, 1971, in Dallas, middle brother Luke got his big break when a short film he collaborated on with his brothers and Wes Anderson caught the attention of director James L. Brooks.
4. Nancy Wilson -- Years
   Nancy Wilson is a dynamic speaker and author who combines a zest for life and people. Nancy has over 25 years of experience in youth work. As a result, she clearly communicates with conviction and compassion.
5. William Baldwin -- Alec Baldwin
   For college William attended the State University of New York at Binghampton from 1981 - 1985, where he majored in political science. He even became an aide on Capitol Hill to New York Democrat and U.S. Representive, Thomas J. Downey, but sadly though in June of 1983, his father, a highly respected history teacher and beloved football coach, died of lung cancer at the age of 55. Soon after, seeing the success of older brother Alec’s new acting career, William had a change of heart and decided to give acting a try. And so while studying acting and trying to pay the bills, William got a job as a bartender and as a male model for Calvin Klein, ( who ... hired his younger brother Stephen ). Then in 1989, William got his first role as an actor, playing killer Robert Chambers in the ABC tv movie, ” The Preppie Murder “.
6. Julie Brown -- Music Guide
   Julie Brown is a singer, a songwriter, a comedian, an actress, and a television personality. In addition to her recordings, she was seen in the film Earth Girls Are Easy (based on one of her songs) and on her own MTV show, Just Say Julie. ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide
7. Sean -- Sean Lennon
   As the son of John Lennon, perhaps the most beloved Beatle, and avant-garde musician Yoko Ono, Sean Lennon was a celebrity before he had even begun his recording career. That may be the reason why he didn't choose straight-ahead pop as his musical vocation, like his half-brother Julian did. Instead, he cleverly positioned himself between pop and experimental, taking his cue from such kaleidoscopic '90s multiculturists as the Beastie Boys, Beck and Cibo Matto. To many ears, his 1998 debut album, Into the Sun, had unexpectedly eclectic roots and a laid-back vibe, earning him positive critical reviews and securing a modest place in the post-alternative hierarchy.
8. Gia
   Gia has minimal extras. Cast and crew bios and a photo gallery of stills from the movie are all that supplement the film. Apparently, only the R-rated version is available on DVD (it's surprising that the option to view the unrated version wasn't included). Additionally, the DVD is sorely lacking in any sort of substantial extras — a commentary with Christofer and/or Jolie would have been worthwhile and, since the film [I]s based on a true story, some additional information on the source subject (such as the TV interview Gia gave, claiming to be drug-free when in reality she was shooting up only minutes before) seems to be in order.
9. Michael Bay
   Michael Bay ... directed the summer 2003 hit Bad Boys II, his fifth collaboration with producer Jerry Bruckheimer. Prior to that, he directed Pearl Harbor, on which he shared producer credit with Bruckheimer. The film grossed over $450 million worldwide. His first feature film, the original Bad Boys, starred Will Smith and Martin Lawrence; it wowed critics and audiences alike and grossed over $140 million worldwide, making it Columbia Pictures' top-grossing film of 1995. The following year saw the release of Bay's second film; starring Sean Connery and Nicolas Cage, The Rock eclipsed Bay's blockbuster debut, taking in more than $300 million worldwide. His third directing effort, Armageddon, which he produced with Bruckheimer, starred Bruce Willis, Ben Affleck, and Liv Tyler; it took in over $550 million around the globe.
10. Patti Smith -- Recordings
    Patti Smith is the last person easily compartmentalized…or reduced to a list of trivia. But leaving the more expansive and exploratory pieces to those like thatof Greg Villepique of Salon.com, Steven Foehr of Shambhala Sun, and Dave Marsh at Rolling Stone, I offer highlights of the life and person–to place a special lens of interest on the ballsy, bombastic, and literary genius of a madwoman as she lived her own statement, came to know suffering as she defined it, and turned to saving others from such suffering…with the very poetic hand she suggests be extended to others suffering, now.
