The Meteoric Rise of Brittany Anne Snow

At the tender age of three, when most kids were still grappling with tricycles, Brittany was already striking a pose for Burdines department stores. But, her star truly began to rise when she landed a three-year stint on CBS' Guiding Light, portraying the tormented teen Susan ""Daisy"" Lemay. Her talent didn't stop at soaps.

And who can forget the hilarious heartbreaks in ""John Tucker Must Die"" (2006), opposite the dashing Jesse Metcalfe, ringing in a cool $68 million worldwide?

Transitioning seamlessly, Brittany lent her voice to ethereal characters in Kingdom Hearts II and the poetic Studio Ghibli's Whisper of the Heart in 2006.
