The 28-year-old, who has once spoken out on the ridiculousness of her Shameless character’s sexuality, showed that it’s not just her popularity on the hit show that landed her a spot on the list — the actress also has an impressive array of charity and public service titles under her belt.

Emmy is a YouthAIDS ambassador, an official spokesperson for the breast cancer awareness organization PiNKiTUDE, and is an active environmentalist, among other things.
