For you gaylings, the great Lawson starred on Broadway in Hit the Sky! and other legendary musicals.

Apparently, she's still alive and raring to go again.

R109 - Sophie Okonedo is a c-b list actress virtually unknown outside of Britain. So famous her last name is instantly recognisable? Really?

Also, "Trump" doesn't meet the criteria, since there are numerous famous people with that surname.

R181 - Shame on both of you.

That's John GarFIELD (ne Julius Garfinkel) and he was hot AF and will never be past his sell date.
