Kathie Lee Gifford

Thanks to her superhit show Live! With Regis and Kathie Lee, she became a household name in the US. Even though Kathie was born in Paris, she moved to Maryland with her parents when she was just four years old. But at fourteen years old, she was the leader of her high school cheerleading team.

Not only this, but Kathie also won a junior pageant in the ’70s, and it would be fair to say that this was the event that opened the way for her success. Given her passion for dancing and everything stage-related, Kathie decided to study drama and music in university.
