Emma Bunton

Bunton will always be Baby Spice to a generation, but I think that nickname undersells her. The Spice Girls remain the best-selling female group ever with over 100 million records sold, and she was a real part of that engine, not just the cute one. What impresses me is the long second act: a durable career as a television presenter and broadcaster, plus a karate background that hints at more grit than her image suggests. Staying genuinely liked and on the air for decades after a teen-pop peak is rare. To me she is a study in turning a moment into a lasting livelihood.
