#21: Melissa McCarthy
Melissa McCarthy, the comedic tornado with a heart of gold and a knack for turning everyday situations into riotous escapades, is a force to be reckoned with in the world of comedy. With a delivery that can make even the driest punchline burst into flames, McCarthy’s comedic genius knows no bounds.
If you were a sitcom fan in the early 2000s, then chances are that you saw Melissa McCarthy pop up from time to time, especially in the show Gilmore Girls. However, it wasn’t until she was cast in Bridesmaids at age 41 that she became far more recognized by people everywhere.
