We celebrate the actors who’ve made us laugh, cry, and question, as well as those whose career-defining performances have become timeless classics.Īnd let’s not forget the comedians who’ve had us in stitches, revealing a unique and homebrewed brand of humour, reflective of our local sensibilities. The silver screen has its own share of luminaries, those who’ve left an indelible mark on our screens, and in many cases, around the world. From a rock god who’s electrified stages to a pop princess who’s touched our hearts, we explore the artists who’ve woven themselves into the fabric of our unique pop culture - a culture that continues to cross borders. In the realm of music, we delve deep into the anthems that have resonated with Aussies and Kiwis for generations. In this exclusive collector’s edition of Rolling Stone AU/NZ, we embark on a journey across the Southern Hemisphere to unveil the 50 most iconic stars of Australia and Aotearoa. What makes a celebrity an icon? It’s not just talent it’s a magnetic charisma, enduring influence, and that unmistakable Antipodean spirit that sets them apart.
