It is a given that many of today’s biggest stars all have connections in the industry prior to starting their own careers. However, even this cannot guarantee success if they don’t have the talent and work ethic to carry them through. These are the things that set apart actresses like Brooke Shields from other celebrity family members. She started out as a child model and actress, slowly establishing a reputation for herself and maintaining that all through adulthood. Did you know she even won Favorite Young Performer at the People’s Choice Awards for four years in a row!

The actress didn’t just inherit a fair amount of wealth from her parents; Shields also got their talent. After all, her mother is former model, Teri Shields, while her father is businessman Frank Shields. We’re sure she’s even learned excellent money management tips from them.
