Young Hollywood hopefuls

Starlets is the plural of starlet, a young actress being promoted as a future star.

The term implies someone with potential but not yet established: Hollywood starlets vying for attention at premieres.

It carries a slightly dated, mid-20th-century feel, evoking studio-era glamour and the machinery of fame-making.
