Born: September 29, 1968 in London
Best Known For: Being in Bros.
Early-life: Born on September 29, 1968, in Peckham, London, minutes before his twin brother Matt. According to their mum, they were both natural performers from an early age. In 1987, they formed the band Bros with their school friend Craig Logan - Luke was the drummer. The group soon scored a massive hit with the single When Will I Be Famous, while the twins attracted an army of female teenage fans, who dubbed themselves Brossettes.
Career: Even after Logan left the band, Bros continued to enjoy chart success, selling 16 million records worldwide. But by the early 1990s, the hits dried up and they split in 1992 amid rumours the brothers had spent all their earnings. Luke penned a biography called I Owe You Nothing, and continued to make records with a new backing group, Band of Thieves, before deciding to concentrate on acting. He believes his fame was initially a drawback, but his career picked up when he decided to try his luck in America, where Bros had never made an impact. Since then he's appeared in movies including ZigZag, Blade II and Hellboy II: The Golden Army.
