14) Neil Patrick Harris

Neil Patrick Harris became famous at 16 for playing a genius doctor in Doogie Howser, M.D. (1989–1993). The show made him a household name, but it also made it hard for people to see him as anything else. He spent years bouncing between Broadway and guest TV roles before How I Met Your Mother (2005–2014) flipped everything. Playing Barney Stinson made him cool, funny, and a little ridiculous, and people loved it. Since then, he’s stayed busy acting, hosting award shows, and proving he can do just about anything.
