This musician had every girl in America wanting to be 'Jessie's Girl'. But did you know that Rick also starred in 'General Hospital' in the early 80's, playing the part of Dr. Noah Drake? This was before he made it big in the music scene. He even returned shortly to 'General Hospital' in early 2000 to reprise the part.

You've probably seen him on 'Nashville', but before Jonathan made his mark on the hit television show, he was playing the part of Lucky Spencer in 'General Hospital'. He joined the cast in 1993.
