21 – Selena Gomez
While she’s perhaps best known from Wizards of Waverly Place, this year marked Gomez’s official departure from all things Disney with her role in the very adult Spring Breakers opposite a cussing, gun-toting James Franco. Up next? A leading role in William H. Macy’s directorial debut, Rudderless.
Big number: Gomez hit No. 1 with her debut solo album, Stars Dance, which sold 97,000 copies in its first week in July.
