Every state likes to claim its most famous sons and daughters.
In some states with a lot of celebs to choose from, like New York and California, it's a bit of a toss-up. Others are intertwined with their home state (think Virginian Sandra Bullock or Georgia native Julia Roberts).
Others may surprise you — for instance, we totally forgot Channing Tatum is originally from Alabama. And we would have guessed Matthew McConnaughey would be tops in Texas, but he's not. (Robin Wright is.)
And then there are cases like Idaho, where if you can only name one star who hails from there (ahem, Aaron Paul), it's probably that person.
So how did USA TODAY content partner Graphiq.come up with the list? It's based on a weighted average of actors' Wikipedia page views over the last month, the number of award nominations each has received and the number of IMDB reviews for their work.
