Considered to be one of the world’s most popular travel destinations, the state of Hawaii, came into existence only as recently as 1959. Thus, it was declared the 50th state of the USA. Its volcanic mountains and dirt free, exotic beaches make it a tourist’s paradise. Thus, this American state attracts thousands of visitors from all over the world every year. Apart from its natural beauty, there’s another reason why Hawaii has been in the news during recent times – its famous faces. Former American President and noted Democratic Party leader Barack Obama was born in the island state. Most of you would probably know how he went on to script a whole new chapter in history. Likewise, singer Bruno Mars, Academy Award winning actress Nicole Kidman, actor and former model Jason Momoa as well as American football star Manti Te’o are other distinguished personalities from Hawaii.
