-- Joe Jonas, Bebe Rexha and Mike Posner are among the artists who have made Forbes’ 30 Under 30 list in the music category, while actors — including Zoe Kravitz, Alia Shawkat and Yara Shahidi — have landed on the magazine's general entertainers list.
Each year for the past seven years, the magazine publishes what editors call an "encyclopedia of creative disruption" that spotlights 600 young adults in 20 fields.
Many celebrities were selected for their various contributions to their industries.
Jonas, 28, who began his career performing as part of the Jonas Brothers, was recognized for reinventing himself as the frontman of DNCE. Rexha, also 28, is noted for writing her own hits, including “Me, Myself & I” and “No Broken Hearts,” as well as songs for others, including “Monster” for Eminem and Rihanna.
