The list of breast cancers above will grow, but already it is plainly way above the expected occurrence of the disease.  For example, there are likely no more than 500 [[Hollywood]] performers under age 30 who would publicly disclose a condition of breast cancer{{fact}}, yet 3 developed breast cancer.  But The typical incidence of that disease is only 2 out of 5000.  The incidence in [[Hollywood]] appears to be more than 10 times that of the general population.  If the population from which the above sample is drawn is twice as high, the incidence in [[Hollywood]] would still be more than 5 times the rate in the general population.

There is likely no more than 1000 in the population of [[Hollywood]] types under age 35 who would have publicly disclose breast cancer{fact}}.  The list above has 8 cases (and growing).  The expected rate is only 1.5 out of 1000 in that age group.
