Where’s ‘Felonious?’ Asking for a friend. ;)
That is a really nice list of big, beautiful stars.
Are any of these ‘stars’ actually SUNS for other Solar Systems?

If you include small planets and planetoids, probably all stars have a “solar system” of planets and other debris from their formation. Various estimates between half and 3/4 for stars with large planets.

Yes, they are suns, but mostly unlike our own. Ours is a “ Main Sequence” type star, which means it’s middle-aged and a fairly average star.
The blue stars are young and hot, and the reddish stars are older and cooler.
Betelgeuse is a red supergiant witch is 10-20 times larger than our sun.
