An "A-list " celebrity is somebody who is at the peak of his career. It very well may be a major movie star, recording artist, sports celebrity, social media figure, film director, mogul, or television presenter. Every profession or area possible has its own A-list celebrities, generally founded on greatness and notoriety in their industry, yet with ridiculously different definitions.

Brendan Fraser

FIRST APPEARANCE ON THE A-LIST: Fraser was one of the '90s' greatest young stars, similarly at home in comedies, dramas, and action roles. George of the Jungle and The Mummy were two of his greatest hits.



After the hit film The Mummy Returns (which earned $435 million around the world), Fraser featured in the widely praised The Quiet American (AFI's 2002 Movie of the Year) and Crash (2004's Best Picture at the Academy Awards).

DOWN TO THE B-LIST: Extraordinary Measures, an eventual Oscar competitor co-featuring Harrison Ford that captivated neither critics nor ticket buyers, and 2010's family comedy Furry Vengeance, which failed in the cinema world and had just 7% approval on Rotten Tomatoes, proceeded with Fraser's downhill spiral.



RETURN TO THE A-LIST: A great thing happened soon after: nostalgia for the ’90s and ’00s grew a fresh wave of adoration for Fraser, eventually on TikTok, where the hashtags #brenaissance and #brendanfraserdeservesbetter exploded.

Rosie Perez

FIRST APPEARANCE ON THE A-LIST: With her thick Brooklyn accent and strong acting abilities for drama and humor, Perez was tough not to like in the late ’80s and early ’90s. Perez made her film debut in Spike Lee’s Do the Right Thing, which is widely regarded as one of the finest films of all time, and then went on to star in the legendary White Man Can’t Jump (stealing scenes as the Jeopardy-obsessed Gloria)



DOWN TO THE B-LIST: Despite being young, beautiful, talented, and fresh off an Academy Award nomination, Perez was passed over for leading roles after her movie Fearless.
