2. Cameron Diaz & Snoop Dogg

Diaz reminisced about those teenage years, mentioning Snoop was already pretty fly and had a burgeoning reputation for being involved with some of the leafy green stuff even back then. It's a small world, especially in Hollywood, where two people from a typical high school in California could rise to such staggering fame. Despite their vastly different career paths—Cameron with her charming on-screen presence and Snoop with his iconic flow—they share a common thread in their high school history, living proof that sometimes future stars really do walk the same hallways as the rest of us.
