Jacques Yves Cousteau
Born: 11 June 1910
Birthplace: Saint-André de Cubzac, France
Died: 25 June 1997
Best Known As: Underwater explorer and filmmaker
Jacques Cousteau was the most famous undersea explorer in the world, known by his dozens of books and films from the 1950s until his death in 1997. The co-inventor of the aqualung (an underwater breathing apparatus) in 1943, Cousteau also pioneered techniques in underwater photography and explored the oceans of the world aboard his vessel Calypso. His filmmaking career included three Oscars, frequent television specials and the series, The Undersea World of Jacques Cousteau (1966). In his later years Cousteau devoted himself to educating the public on environmental issues, and working with the Cousteau Foundation, founded in 1973 to further marine research and exploration.
American singer John Denver paid tribute to Cousteau in his 1975 song "Calypso"... Cousteau is unrelated to fictional detective Jacques Clouseau... Cousteau won an Oscar as producer of the 1959 short film Histoire d'un Poisson Rouge (Story of a Red Fish).

Jennifer Lopez
Born: 24 July 1970
Birthplace: New York, New York
Best Known As: The much-married star of Selena and Maid in Manhattan
Jennifer Lopez was a dancer (or "fly girl") on TV's comedy sketch show In Living Color before landing the title role in a 1997 biopic of the singer Selena. Appearances in the films Blood and Wine (with Jack Nicholson, 1997) and Out of Sight (with George Clooney, 1998) made her a bona fide movie star and the highest-paid Latin actress in Hollywood. In 2000 she appeared in a famously skimpy peacock-colored dress at the music industry's Grammy Awards, and began a much-discussed romance with rapper P. Diddy (aka "Puffy" Combs). Lopez also launched a music career with the albums On the Six (1999) and J.Lo (2001), but she has generally had more success in the movies and as a regular in the gossip sheets. Her engagement to actor Ben Affleck in 2002 resulted in the of-the-moment combined moniker "Bennifer." The pair never married, and ended their relationship in January 2004. A few months later, on 5 June 2004, Lopez married singer Marc Anthony. Her movies include Anaconda (1997, with Ice Cube); the animated feature Antz (1998, with the voice of Woody Allen); The Wedding Planner (2001); Angel Eyes (2001, co-starring Jim Caviezel); Maid in Manhattan (2002); and Gigli (2003, co-starring Affleck).
Lopez's popular nickname is "J. Lo"... Her marriage to Marc Anthony is her third: she was married to waiter Ojani Noa from 1997-98 and to dancer Cris Judd from 2001-02.
