Bette Midler

Like some of her colleagues, Bette Midler began her career as a stage actress, appearing in notable productions like Salvation and Fiddler on the Roof. She also had quite a successful run as a singer, starting around 1970, and has since taken credit for having ten certified albums – three Platinum, three Multiplatinum, and four Gold. Soon after, she made her way to film, garnering widespread praise for her work in The Rose, Hocus Pocus, and For the Boys.

Along with inspiring fans from different corners of the world, Midler’s daughter, Sophie von Haselberg, also considers the four-time Golden Globe Award-winning actress her idol. In fact, Sophie is already making her way to the acting business, debuting with the 2014 play Billy and Ray. A year later, she got her first shot to fame on the Woody Allen-directed crime mystery film Irrational Man. Goes to show Sophie didn’t only inherit her mother’s looks, but also her acting skills.
