Linda Gray

Linda Gray had quite the unusual tale. She was actually the body double for The Graduate’s Mrs. Robinson and she was able to become a star of her own after filming the movie. Fun fact: she was paid $25 for a shot of her leg in the promotional posters of the movie. Yup, you are mistaken if you thought the leg was Anne Bancroft’s. She then received the lead role of Sue Ellen on Dallas and she went on to reprise the role in the remake. You will also see her in The Entertainers, Oscar, Star of Jaipur, and Prescience.

Barbara Streisand

Come on now, who doesn’t know Barbara Streisand? She first experienced success after her parts in the musicals Funny Girl and Hello, Dolly! These productions were staged in the late 60’s but she would enjoy even more success in the 70’s. She has also dabbled in composing, directing, producing, and writing! Keep an eye peeled out for The Politician, where she will be starring alongside Gwyneth Paltrow. Of course, let’s not forget that she’s always on the list of the best-selling musicians of all time!
