EW has assembled a list of the:

It includes actors and musicians-

Robert Pattinson (who until reading this article it totally slipped me by that he too played Cedric Diggory in the Harry Potter films)

Demi Lovato

Russell Brand

Estelle

Shailene Woodley

David Cook

Tristan Wilds

Kat Dennings

Chelsea Handler

Angel (chihuahua from Beverly Hills Chihuahua)


Who else do you think belongs on this list as a breakout star of the year?

    hmm why isn't kristen stewert on there? Or I think Taylor Swift should be on there. She's only 18 and has 2 album and her 1st album is still a chart topper! And she writes most of her own songs.

    I think James McAvoy is a great selection. He obviously has been around for a few years...but all of a sudden...Atonement/Wanted, etc. - he's a household name!

    Kristen Stewart is a decent choice too...but maybe they didn't want to skew the list too Twlight...and Robert Pattinson definitely wins on that one. I think in terms of Taylor Swift, that while she's had a great year, she's already too established to be considered a breakout star; her debut album 2 years ago broke all kinds of records.
