Gwen Stefani became the lead singer and songwriter for No Doubt. They wrote the “Just a Girl” and “Spiderwebs” songs. During her vacation, Stefani established a solo career and gained equal success with her chart-topping singles “What You Waiting For?” and “Cool.” Stefani is lauded for her flair and beauty in addition to her singing. Her incredible body could also be attributed to her experience as a swimming team member at Loara High School in California. She is still known to swim regularly as part of her training program, according to Ocaquatics.

Hugh Jackman’s iconic portrayal of Wolverine in the “X-Men” film series has almost become synonymous with him. He now holds the Guinness World Record for the longest career as a live-action Marvel character, which he will keep until 2021. Aside from his onscreen appearances in plays like “Les Misérables” and “The Greatest Showman,” Jackman has been vocal in his support and interest in the sport. He played rugby union, cricket, basketball, kayaking, and swimming during high school. Despite his focus on filmmaking, he has long been a fan and supporter of the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles of the National Rugby League.
