I remember growing up and seeing Vanessa Hudgens' Bongo campaign in magazines. I think I probably put a few of her posters on my wall, to be honest. I wore Bongo growing up, as did my older sister - I would get her hand-me-downs as well as my own new pieces when I went shopping.

Lili Reinhart

Nicole Richie invited me to her birthday party, and it was at Michael Jackson's Neverland!

Gaby Hoffmann

I'm a big fan of people like Rachel Bilson and Kate Bosworth. I think they're so chic and have this cool edgy-rocker feel. For about a month I tried to do that, but what I realized is that I can't be anything other than what I am.

India de Beaufort

I didn't really have idols growing up, but some of my friends were huge fangirls.

Ella Purnell

Growing up, my idols were Lucky Luke and Jolly Jumper. And Scottie Pippen.

Dirk Nowitzki

As an actress and just as a person, I've kind of been in a little bit of a bubble. So it was so great for me to see where I could go as an actress and to be around incredible people who are much more experienced than I am, like Harmony [Korine], James [Franco], and Vanessa [Hudgens].

Selena Gomez

When I was growing up, Keane and Sheringham were my idols, and they wore 10. So it was always my dream to wear it.

Harry Kane

Hip-hop influences my talent, but I think that punk and everything else I listened to growing up was who my idols were.

Machine Gun Kelly

My football idol growing up, I was named after Walter Payton, but my idols at RB were Barry Sanders and Emmitt Smith.

Peyton Hillis

When I was growing up I loved reading historical fiction, but too often it was about males; or, if it was about females, they were girls who were going to grow up to be famous like Betsy Ross, Clara Barton, or Harriet Tubman. No one ever wrote about plain, normal, everyday girls.

Kathryn Lasky

You have to capitalise on any success you have and keep doing what you do as well as you can. But how do you define success? In my book, it's to be playing those parts you saw your idols - Judi Dench, Maggie Smith, Helen Mirren, Vanessa Redgrave - playing when they were the age you are now.

Janet McTeer

As a little girl growing up in a small farming town in Michigan, my idols were women like Marlene Dietrich and Rita Hayworth.

Dita Von Teese

Forget about 40 years in show business. Just surviving 27 years of Nicole Richie is enough.

Lionel Richie

God, what if TMZ got hold of the truth about me? What a liar I am, I mean? What kind of role model am I? I make Vanessa Hudgens look like Mother Freaking Teresa. Minus the whole nudity thing. Because I'm not about to take naked photos of myself and send them to my boyfriend.
