Jennifer Grey
Now, Jennifer Grey is definitely one of the biggest stars of the decade. Her success can be attributed to two of the most popular 80’s films: Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and Dirty Dancing. She was nominated for a Golden Globe when she played Baby in the latter. She has not taken on many acting jobs since then, though she brought home the bacon when she appeared on the reality show Dancing with the Stars in 2010!

Phoebe Cates
Remember Phoebe Cates of Gremlines and Fast Times at Ridgemont High fame? We bet you do! Everyone missed her when she quit acting back in 1991, though we were glad when she came out of retirement in 2001 to appear in The Anniversary Party. Apparently, the actress only did it as a favor for a friend.
