In this city, you don't drive in the fast lane; you drive in one of the fast lanes. So it's no surprise that record-breaking Indy 500 winner Helio Castroneves calls the Magic City home. It's also not terribly surprising he's a Dancing With the Stars champion. Whether landing spreads in Cosmopolitan or holding a private audience with the pope, the charismatic driver has proven he can beat anyone at anything and look flawlessly attractive while doing it.
