1. Sharing the screen with Brad Pitt in the movie Fight Club (1999) before he gets his face beaten to a pulp. Brad and Jared side by side - that's what dreams are made of.

2. Starring as the legendry runner Steve Prefontaine in the movie Prefontaine (1997). You may not agree unless you have a thing for men with facial hair.

3. Playing the high school hottie in the television series My So-Called Life (1994) despite being in his early twenties at the time.

1. He was engaged to none other than Cameron Diaz but the couple split for undisclosed reasons in 2002.

2. He gave up sex for two months when preparing for his role as a heroin addict in the movie Requiem for a Dream (2000). This is doubly impressive when you consider who he was dating at the time. Yes, it was Cameron Diaz.

3. He performs in a band called 30 Seconds To Mars along with his brother Shannon Leto and two friends.
