...chart success in the U.K. and U.S., where Bedingfield's the only Briton to have scored two Top 20 singles in the past year (take that, Robbie Williams). The musical superlatives mask a major part of Bedingfield's nonmusical appeal: his averageness. He looks like a plumber, not a pinup. He laughs (often too) loudly.

...alternative-rock station KROCK, which led to Daly's MTV job. For the short time he was at the station, when he was one of the first people to play shock rocker Marilyn Manson, guys actually thought Daly was cool. He says the experience makes being a Tiger Beat pinup more palatable. "I've already been in that too-cool-for-school world, and I didn't like it. It's so judgmental," he says...
