Lauryn Hill/Rita Watson

If we’re gonna start this, we’re gonna start strong, with the wonderfully talented Lauryn Hill.  Revealing her beautiful voice and acting chops, Lauryn portrayed the stubborn but hopeful student Rita Watson who was against Sister Mary Clarence’s desire to change their “bird” class into one that they actually learned.  But she was eventually persuaded to give it a shot and had all types of solos.

I mean, seriously, we all pretty much know her music history, but did you know that she continued acting?  In fact, she was an actress in “As The World Turns” before she did Sister Act 2.  She had a few bit pieces here and there, but turned down big parts like in the last two Matrix movies.  After Sister Act 2, Lauryn’s group the Fugees made multiple albums, winning awards and accolades.  She then went on to make her first solo album that won her Grammys on top of Grammys.  The following year she won a Grammy for co-producing Carlos Santana’s album “Supernatural. ”  She took a small music hiatus, but released the MTV Unplugged album (which was AMAZING, I don’t care what ANYONE says).  She was involved with Wyclef and Rohan Marley, having multiple children with the latter.   She also released multiple mixtapes and continues to tour and perform.

In 2012 she plead guilty to tax evasion charges and will be sentenced in November.  (Sad face)
