The sultry Shane West -- a Gemini whose genuine handsomeness is doubly effective in combination with his mesmerizing raspy voice -- made his mark on the Hollywood scene within the realm of teen drama. Beginning with appearances on television shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Picket Fences, Shane West was soon cast as a more permanent staple in teenage tube-life, as well as on the big screen.

Huge publicity surrounding the pop superstar status of Mandy Moore brought Shane West much attention as her love interest in 2002's A Walk to Remember.
