Scrolling through NJ.com, I spotted an article referencing a map of stars (celebrities) that are from New Jersey! Many people that are from the Tri-State area know there have been various singers, actresses, writers, comedians, etc. who grew up in New Jersey or currently reside there. But, there were actually a ton more that I had no clue lived in Jersey at one point, or even still do!!
You can check out this interactive Map of Stars to see if there are any surprises you did not realize grew up not far from where you did, or might even currently live in areas you may be familiar with!
Some popular figures you may already know about on this list are Bruce Springsteen, Meryl Streep, Steven Spielberg and of course I have to mention the Jonas Brothers!
