#18: Bruno Mars and Dave Franco
Born: 1985
Bruno Mars and Dave Franco, both born in the groove-filled year of 1985, embarked on their professional journeys around the same beat in 2006 at the ripe age of 21. While Franco dipped his toes into acting, taking cues from his brother James, with a debut on The CW’s 7th Heaven, Mars made the leap from the laid-back vibes of Honolulu to the bustling energy of Los Angeles.
Fast forward to today, and Franco has left his mark with standout performances in The Disaster Artist and The Lego Ninjago Movie, while Mars is setting the charts on fire with chart-toppers like the irresistible “Uptown Funk,” a global sensation crafted alongside Mark Ronson. It’s like destiny orchestrated a symphony of success for these two talents, each hitting their own dazzling high notes along the way.
