22. Naomi

Naomi might have one of the better entrances out of all of the current WWE superstars. It also doesn't hurt that she's wildly talented and one of the better athletes of this current generation of pro-wrestling talent as well. Watching her wrestle is an experience because there isn't anything she can't do with her body. Everything she does in the ring is all action from Running Hurricanranas, Diving Block Busters, to Split-Legged Moonsaults off of the top turnbuckle. Naomi is just miles ahead athletically in comparison to this current generation's roster of WWE Divas.

Prior to outperforming her competition in the ring, Naomi born, Trinity McCray, was a cheerleader for the Orlando Magic and a backup dancer for hip-hop artist Flo Rida. In August 2009, McCray signed a developmental contract with the WWE and instantly became an impacting personality winning the inaugural (Florida Championship Wrestling) FCW Divas Championship in 2010. After becoming a mainstay roster member Naomi became the first Black woman to win the Smackdown Women's Championship in 2017. She was forced to give up the title due to injury but won it for a second time at WrestleMania 33. To this day, she plays an integral role in the WWE and one of their most talented athletes.

Did You Know...

Chefs made their way into celebrity land a while ago. But how many celebrities that weren’t trained as professional cooks are actually whizzes in the kitchen? Here are several that come to mind.

Actress Julia Roberts is confident about her cooking skills. “I’m quite a good cook,” she told E! News. “I’m like a closet home ec teacher…I can really cook anything.” Roberts has said she often cooks fish for herself and her kids. And speaking of her three children, “They think that I’m a good cook,” Roberts told People. “They actually told me that I should open a restaurant.” She also relishes cooking for the holidays, particularly shredded Brussel sprouts. Roberts hasn’t published a cookbook, but we did find recipes attributed to her for peach crisp and banana hemp muffins. Or you can make the same summer salad the actress supposedly eats.

Chrissy Teigen started off as a supermodel. Then her love of cooking filtered into her professional life too. At this point, she’s created recipes for a limited Blue Apron release and also just launched her own home and cooking line at Target named “Cravings,” after the two cookbooks she’s released. Teigen describes cooking as “a time of peace” for herself. So maybe peace out to her tuna melt sandwich or the fried chicken wings that are a favorite of her husband, John Legend.

Lady Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, comes from a cooking Italian family. Her father started his own restaurant in New York and also published a cookbook. And apparently, Lady Gaga has inherited the family’s cooking genes. Her Instagram account occasionally features photos of her culinary activities. Sure, sometimes it’s topless cooking. But other times it’s more poignant like in the post she shared about her bringing food to the family of her dear friend who passed away. Want to try a Gaga/Germanotta family favorite? Check out her recipe for whole wheat pasta with a sweet fennel sauce.
