Emma Roberts
Then the star of Nickelodeon's hit series Unfabulous, Roberts' turn as Clare was her first starring film role. The same year, she fronted the Nancy Drew movie and went on on to appear in slew of films, including Valentine's Day, Hotel for Dogs and Twelve before landing one of the lead roles in 2011's Scream 4.
And in 2013, she joined Ryan Murphy's TV world when she made her memorable American Horror Story debut as meme-able witch Madison Montgomery in the third installment, Coven. She went on to appear in more seasons of the popular FX anthology series (kissing Kim Kardashian in the latest) and lead Murphy's Fox horror dramedy Scream Queens as Chanel Oberlin, another meme queen. Most recently, Roberts starred in Madame Web.
After seven years in an on-again, off-again romance with her Adult Life and American Horror Story costar Evan Peters, Roberts connected with Garret Hedlund in March 2019. They welcomed their first child, son Rhodes in 2020 and ultimately split in 2022. She now dates Cody John.
Sara Paxton
The same year she played the titular mermaid, Paxton also took over the role of teen witch Marnie from Kimberly J. Brown in Disney Channel's Halloweentown franchise.
She went on to appear in horror movies like The Last House on the Left and Shark Night, as well as star in the shortlived CW series The Beautiful Lie: TBL. She's also made appearances on This Is Us, How to Get Away With Murder, Twin Peaks and NBC's Good Girls.

JoJo
After turning down the role of Hannah Montana to focus on her music career, the singer made her acting debut as Hailey in the 2006 movie and also appeared in the family comedy R.V.
While she made history as the youngest solo artist to earn a No. 1 hit with "Leave (Get Out)" in 2004, JoJo's career came to a halt when her record label refused to release her new music while she began pursuing acting endeavors. This lead to a years-long battle as the then-18-year-old fought in court to be released from her contract. Her case with Blackground was finally settled in 2013, though Jojo later told UpRoxx, "I didn't get any money. I didn't get any damages or anything like that. I just walked away being able to sign another record contract. I was like, 'Let's go!' I was free."
She went on to re-record her first two albums and singles owned by Blackground, launch her own record label through a partnership with Warner Records and drop her critically acclaimed album, Good to Know.
In 2021, she announced her engagement to actor Dexter Darden.

Then, he played Murphy Brown's adult son in CBS' shortlived revival of the iconic series, before appearing on What We Do in the Shadows, Hulu's holiday romcom Happiest Season and the critically accalimed Dopesick.
