There are so many reasons to visit Hawaii, and most of them are very plain to see, even for those who have never set foot on the islands. It plays a major role in the imagination as a place where clean, white beaches and luxury settings are all that the eye can see. It’s a spot for vacationers and honeymooners, with some of the most relaxing places and hot romantic spots in the world. Many people are also drawn by the five star Hawaiian hotels because of the star-gazing possibilities here. And this isn’t just the stars that come out at night.

In the world of show business and entertainment, audiences seem to favor looks that are exotic and interesting. While every place has an exotic appeal to someone who’s not from there, making it a kind of a relative term, in Hawaii there is a mix of culture that the Hollywood industry seems to find particularly attractive. There are large numbers of people from Hawaii who find careers in modeling, that soon move into the acting industry. Tia Carrera , Naveen Andrews, and Keiko Agena have found their way into the homes of millions with their television and film appearances.

There is also the Rock. Born Dwayne Johnson to Samoan and Black Nova Scotian Heritage, the star got his big break in the field of pro wrestling, until the cameras couldn’t ignore his good looks and infectious smile. He is now an icon of cinema, crossing many barriers and borders, even in film style. He might be one of the few actors around who can appeal to both action lovers and children in the same film. Nicole Kidman also hails from the islands. Born in Honolulu, she’s proven over and over to the world that good looks can also accompany the spark of genius, and her performances have moved audiences from tears to laughter, and everything else in between.

These stars may not be coming soon to a Hawaiian beach near you, but there are new talents emerging constantly on the island, and the next big thing might be standing on your towel.
