Our proudest Australian celebrity exports!

With Australia Day fast approaching, our minds are on the Aussie celebrities who are currently taking over the Hollywood scene.

While we are proud to see our own doing well, it’s even more humbling to see them keep the down-to-earth attitude we’re famous for, even when taking home Golden Globes. We’re looking at you, Cate Blanchett!

Check out who made the list of Aussies we’re admiring right now…

There’s no better way to demonstrate the Thor mega-star’s Down Under humility than his recent banter at the Golden Globes.

The hunky ex-pat was presenting an award with retired Formula One champion Niki Lauda when Niki took off his hat, showing his bald head, and complained of looking bad.

Chris was quick to embrace him in a manly hug before saying in his thick Aussie accent, “You look bloody good to me, mate!”

The relative newcomer has kicked off her international career with a bang after landing a part beside Hollywood heavyweight Leonardo DiCaprio in the Martin Scorsese film, The Wolf Of Wall Street.

The 23-year-old is following up her breakthrough performance with a starring role in Craig Zobel’s Z For Zachariah, a comedy with Will Smith called Focus and a romance, Suite Francaise.

Talent like this doesn’t come around too often and in this case was born in a little suburb called Toowoomba, Queensland.

This unrivalled Australian actor and producer has landed almost every movie industry award achievable, including the acting triple crown of Oscar, Emmy and Tony award.

In 2012 Geoffrey was named Australian of the Year and is the president of Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts.

Most of us have been following this Aussie beauty since her first Australian movie roles, where she appeared as a young, innocent-faced girl with curly, red locks.

We’ve watched her grow up through her movies from, BMX Bandits, Days of Thunder, Far and Away, Moulin Rouge, The Others and Cold Mountain.

Aside from being made a Companion of the Order of Australia, we love her because she married our other favourite export, singing legend Keith Urban.

This Australian heart-throb is no stranger to the acting world.

Simon got his start on Australian television cult classics E Street, Home and Away and Heartbreak High. But it was his good looks, charm and undeniable talent for acting that made him a big name in Hollywood.

He has starred in the popular television series The Mentalist and The Guardian and appeared in the movies, Land of the Dead and The Devil Wears Prada.

This Aussie model has certainly made a name for herself as one of the most beautiful women in the world. She was the highest paid model in 2013 and exploded onto the celebrity scene after scoring Orlando Bloom as her leading man.

Although the couple are separated, Miranda is star enough in her own right to still be photographed wherever she goes. She most certainly isn’t doing Australian tourism any harm either!

When he and Miley Cyrus ended their engagement after her overtly sexy performance at the MTV Video Music Awards, gentleman Liam walked away without spilling the beans, much to the disappointment of Miley’s detractors.

And old-fashioned charm seems to be Liam’s theme. He has made a name for himself playing likeable leading men – in The Last Song and The Hunger Games franchise. His international star is on the rise and we can’t wait to see what 2014 has in store for him.

We first fell in love with Kylie when she was playing little Charlene Mitchell on Neighbours and watched her take over the music scene with her catchy tunes.

She’s had us spinning around, doing the locomotion and infatuated is with her famous gold, hot pants.

And even though this Australian icon no longer lives here, she will always be Australia’s darling child!

Jesse’s big break came to him unexpectedly when he landed the role of Dr. Robert Chase in the huge American television hit House.

From humble beginnings, Jesse grew up on the set of Neighbours before finding international success and we haven’t been able to lure him back home since.

He’s now working on another American drama series Chicago Fire, this time as Lieutenant Matthew Casey.

This funny girl has floored us with her continued rise to fame in some of Hollywood’s biggest comedy blockbuster films.

Isla started off her acting career, as so many other Australian actors did, on the set of Home and Away. She has gone on to star in Scooby-Doo, Wedding Crashers, Confessions of a Shopaholic and most recently The Great Gatsby. We will be keeping an eye on her to see what she lands next.

This Aussie face needs no introduction. Most of us can’t see Olivia without humming the soundtrack to the movie Grease.

She is a breast cancer survivor, a doting mother and a four time Grammy Award winner. It wouldn’t be a far stretch to declare that she is probably the most well-known, and liked, Australian export of all time.

Born into a working-class family in the western suburbs of Sydney, Toni’s is the Australian success story we’ve all loved following. And while her talent has always been undeniable, no-one could have predicted the extent of her achievements.

She has earned her stripes with extraordinary performances in Muriel’s Wedding, The Sixth Sense, About A Boy and Little Miss Sunshine. And she won Best Actress at the Emmys and Golden Globes for her role in US TV phenomenon, United States Of Tara.

Remember Vinnie Patterson from Home and Away? That’s right, the man behind the loveable Australian television character took over US screens in the hit HBO series, True Blood.

Ryan landed a lead role in the vampire hit playing Jason Stackhouse and as a result, has become a household name in America.

We are excited to see what comes next for this exciting Aussie actor.

Golden girl Cate Blanchett recently collected two of the most distinguished awards in the US movie industry, winning Best Actress in a drama at the Golden Globes and the top Screen Actors Guild award for her role in Woody Allen’s film Blue Jasmine. She is now tipped to take home her second Oscar.

Cate’s poise, elegance and professionalism has earned her respect from some of Hollywood’s most powerful players, and raised the bar for all other Australian actors who are following in her footsteps.

We don’t really need to explain why Hugh Jackman ended up on this list. The handsome Aussie can sing, dance, act – and also happens to be a great husband. This Academy Award nominee and philanthropist is the perfect man to be representing us.

Hugh is known for his leading roles in such films as Wolverine, Van Helsing, Australia and Les Miserables, and has also long been adored for his stage work in the likes of The Boy From Oz.

Hailing from the same town as Toni Collette, loveable Joel Edgerton made it out of the suburbs and into the big time.

With parts in Star Wars, Warriors and The Thing, Joel then followed up with a role in Baz Luhrmann’s remake of The Great Gatsby.

Despite his success, Joel is a humble man who loves to spend time in Australia and is an active ambassador for Aussie non-profit The Fred Hollows Foundation.

You could be forgiven for missing Keith in his early days, when his country music star shone brighter in Nashville than at home, but we’re sure you know lots about him now.

The smooth and talented musician married Australia’s sweetheart Nicole Kidman, melted our hearts as resident Mr Nice Guy on The Voice, and now sits as a judge on one of the world’s top talent shows, American Idol.
