I would like to know how to do what this site is doing with Pornstars Page (waybig.com)... by the way, it is an adult gay site so be warned...

I would like to do the same thing where when i click the page, I can see the profiles of the actors/actresses in alphabetical order and also can click a letter and it would go to a page to show all actors/actresses with names starting with that letter. Then when I click a profile it would show the actors' picture with his profile and pictures... thank you...

This is not a thing that can be solved in a small tutorial, just saying "do this, do that". It takes a lot of code... [:|] it's possible to do, but you'll need some programming skills. Start learning about Custom Post Type and Custom Taxonomies on Wordpress Codex, it will help you.
 
click a letter and it would go to a page to show all actors/actresses with names starting with that letter.
You can do this with the default categories too.
lets say you have an actor named john, for all posts with this actor you set up a john category.
Then to get a list with the posts you can use a plugin w4 post list (can be done with php too).
But you better start looking into custom post types and taxonomies like bjskid suggested because once you figured it out it easier to work.

willing to learn but just needed guidance on correct path to take... i will look up what you guys are saying and study it...thank you both...
 
Maybe you can use this plugin "A to Z Category Listing"

It's not good structure for your site but that's the easiest solution if you don't know how to code.
 
I was about to suggest "A to Z Category Listing", that will definitely do the job. And for the names, you could use the Tags as names, and edit your Tag.php or Archive.php to make it more like a profile page.
This whole thing could be done with 2-4 plugins.
