Now Known As: Demi Moore
Demi traded in her stepfather’s surname for that of her first husband, Freddy Moore, and though the third time married wasn’t a charm (in case you live under a rock, she was also married to Bruce Willis), the former Mrs. Kutcher has more than just a few good men to fall back on. This sometimes-controversial age-defying beauty also has an impressive list of credits under her very tiny belt, like St. Elmo’s Fire, Ghost, A Few Good Men, Indecent Proposal, G.I. Jane, and Charlie’s Angels. If that’s not enough, in 1996 she also became the highest-paid actress in Hollywood, paving the way for higher salaries for women in the biz.
