Just as trends change, actors, actresses and musicians have their heightened moments and then unfortunately sometimes fall. What once was popular eventually fades and suddenly these once overly famous people are now out of the spotlight.

We don’t hear about what happened to certain people after their shows got cancelled or they stop making music. Did they retire? Or are they just staying behind the scenes producing? Are they simply laying low?

Actors like Chad Michael Murray and Freddie Prinze Jr. were teenage heartthrobs at one time but what happened to them? Gwen Stefani was known for being the lead singer of No Doubt in the 90s and had a stellar solo career but since then hasn’t been heard from.

TheCelebrityCafe.com is counting down the top 10 celebrities we were obsessed with who haven’t come out with anything new in a while and we’re also breaking the silence about what’s rumored to be happening in the near future.
