Prior to making it big, Seth grew up doing stand-up in the clubs around town. Now known for his acting, writing, producing, laugh and love of the weed, he often talks about his love for the city and the jelly donuts from Lee’s on Granville Island. For a while his voice could be heard making announcements on the SkyTrain and we have an octopus at the Aquarium named after him.

Graduating from Kitsilano Secondary School, Ryan has since become one of Hollywood’s leading men. He has written, directed and starred in some major blockbusters, including Deadpool, which was filmed entirely in Vancouver. This former Sexiest Man Alive goes by @vancityreynolds on Instagram and is a huge Canucks fan.

Before wanting to become a singer, Michael Bublé wanted to become a professional hockey player. The four-time Grammy winner found international fame with the release of his 2005 album It’s Time. Bublé currently lives in West Vancouver with his wife and kids and while he didn’t make it on the ice, he is a part owner of the Vancouver Giants junior hockey team.

Known for her modelling, acting and animal activism, Pam’s big break came in 1989 at a BC Lions football game. Anderson appeared on the Jumbotron wearing a Labatt beer shirt. She was then hired by Labatt to be a spokesmodel and her career took off from there. Most notably she was a star on the hit series Baywatch and a Playboy model.

Starting his music career out of his mother’s basement at the age of 14, Adams has sold over 100 million records and is the best-selling Canadian rock artist of all time.
