As the daughter of Phylicia and Ahmad Rashad, Condola has picked up quite the buzz over the last couple of years. She recently co-starred (with her mom and a host of other stars) in the remake of Steel Magnolias. Her initial introduction into her own celebrity life is actually in theater; she was in the Broadway play, Stickfly, along side actors Mekhi Phifer and Dule Hill. We can’t wait to see what she does next!

Mamie Gummer
Don’t recognize Mamie? First of all, her real is Mary Willa but yes, she goes by “Mamie.” Second, she is the daughter of the actress of all actresses, Meryl Streep (is there anyone who doesn’t love her?). Now, if you’ve ever seen The Good Wife, she held a recurring role for quite a few episodes last season. Her new show, Emily Owens, MD., premiered in October and is getting warm reviews.

Cymphonique Miller
Yes, that young lady above is 16 year old Cymphonique, the daughter of Master P and Romeo’s little sister. Yes, that is her given name – Master P has a “thing” for giving his children very different names. Cymphonique is a Nickelodeon kid, currently starring in How To Rock, where she also serves as a music contributor. She also sings the theme song on another Nickelodeon show, Winx Club. Cymphonique has also been nominated for “Best Female Hip Hop artist” at the 2011 BET Awards.

Damon Wayans, Jr.
We don’t need a picture of his father for three reasons: (1) You see his name so you know who his dad is; (2) you see what he looks like so you can tell he looks just like his dad and (3) every member of the family looks alike so you know he’s part of them. Damon Wayans, Jr. co-stars in the hit show Happy Endings. He was quite the busy man last television season, having been in the pilot for both Happy Endings and New Girl; after the former was picked up, he had to back out of New Girl. Damon is also known for being quite the comedian, similar to his father. He’s handsome too…wonder if he has a girlfriend?
