Drew may have had her well-publicized struggles with drugs and alcohol, and a couple of short-lived marriages, but her troubles seem to be well and truly behind her now. Her first film as director was well-received, so it looks like a bright future is ahead for Drew, both professionally and personally.

5. Donny Osmond

Unlike their contemporaries the Jacksons, the Osmonds have barely put a foot wrong. Donny continues to make TV and stage appearances, has been married for over 30 years, and comes across in interviews as a charming guy not afraid to laugh at himself.

6. Anna Paquin

However, she has moved on to equally successful adult roles. After playing Rogue in the X-Men franchise, she is now wowing fans as Sookie Stackhouse in True Blood on TV.
