From former child stars to current hit makers, these young celebs are making waves. They are the most noticed trailblazers of our generation. Whether it’s from the craziness that surrounds their personal lives or actual talent these are the top celebrity millennials who are making headlines.
Miley Cyrus
Born: November 23, 1992 (age 22)
Cyrus has made her want of distancing herself from her former Disney image very, very obvious. With her current obsession with proclaiming her love of Mary Jane to her inability to keep her tongue inside her mouth, Miley has shown that she’s no longer that quintessential, squeaky clean celeb that she once was portrayed as.
But she’s still making money. And her fans aren’t showing any signs of jumping ship, so she wins.
Zendaya
Born: September 1, 1996 (age 19)
After the whole “weed dreads” debacle this past spring, this young starlet’s fame seems to grow by the day. Zendaya is a dancer, model, and a singer. I’m sure her list of jobs also includes trash man, UPS truck driver and Johnny Depp stand-in. The girl is a quadruple threat.
Kylie Jenner
Born: August 10, 1997 (age 18) This teen starlet’s family have been making headlines since she was born. However, it wasn’t until she had an overnight extreme makeover that the spotlight shined on her.
Justin Bieber
Born: March 1, 1994 (age 21)
Bieber is probably the most famed male millennial in the game. While he’s a complete egomaniac, you can’t deny his power. He’s managed to successfully escape the swirling toilet bowl that had previously dethroned the Jonas Brothers and other former teen throbs of yesteryear.
Taylor Swift
Born: December 13, 1989 (age 25)
The obvious queen of the millennials. She is everywhere. This woman is living the high life. Whether you like her or not she has her fans and the media eating out the palm of her hand. She’s managed to “Mary Sue” her way into America’s hearts.
She’s clearly winning. Cheers to her.
