Demi Moore ( real name : Demetria Guynes "Demetria" which is the name of a 1960's cosmetics line) was born on the 11th of November 1962 in Roswell, New Mexico. Her biological father Charles Harmon an Air Force serviceman left her mother Victoria after a two-month marriage, before Demi was even born. The family moved to Pennsylvania after her father left. Her stepfather Danny Guynes didn't guarantee much stability to her life either but was Demi's father as far as she knew. He frequently changed jobs and made the family move more than 30 times, had a drinking/gambling problems. Demi also has a halfbrother on her farthers side, James Craig Harmon. She spent much of her childhood in Eastern Pennsylvania growing up. Her family moved to New Mexico years later running from her fathers debts most likely. Until her adolescence Demi did't know that Danny was not her real father. Her parents used to drink and argue, until her father tragically committed suicide by inhaling carbon monoxide from the exhaust of his car.

Demi and familly then moved with her mother to L.A. She dropped out of high school at the age of 16 to work as a pin-up-girl/model Demi and Freddyat the time. Demi's roommate was famed Natasha Kinski who had just been cast in a Roman Polanski film. At 18 she stupidly married the rock musician Freddy Moore (right); the marriage lasts only four years. On her 18th birthday barely, she poses nude in Oui Mens Magazine in a hot but less than bashful photo spread in January 1980 issue and instantly gets a role in straight to video film "Choices" in 1981, then gets a small uncredited role in
Young Doctors in Love in 1982.

She got her big break in the movie "Blame it on Rio" a romantic comedy released the following year. Demi skillfully acts in the film playing one of two under aged hottie daughters on vacation in the clothing optional samba city of Rio De Janaro, South America, starring Michael Caine and Valerie Harper.
In 1983 extra photoshoot pictures again appear in Oui Mens Magazine.

Her next break came playing the part of Jackie Templeton on the ABC soap opera, General Hospital, a role she played from 1982 to 1983. But being newly married and having a steady acting job didn't guarantee stability or success. Moore began living the rocker lifestyle and began abusing drugs and alcohol: "I got involved with drugs because I was young and not sure how to deal with my sudden burst of fame." Working as a soap actress wasn't a great acting reward but it did provide contacts for the young Mrs. Moore.

Demi partys like a hollywood rockstar for more than 3 years, until director Joel Schumacher fired her from the set of "St. Elmo's Fire" when she turned up high for a shoot. In this film her character is a drug addicted youth who learns some fast hard life lessons. She almost lost everything but agrees to drug rehab treatment and returns after a week, she stayed clean and sober apparenty through out the rest of her career. This film also launches the careers of other young actors such as Ally Sheedy, Rob Lowe and Judd Nelson. Demi claims she found a new clarity in life and begins to take charge of her career.

Demi was one of three finalists for the lead in the movie "Flashdance" by 1983 but obviously lost the role to Jennifer Beals. On the set of "St. Elmo's Fire" Demi met Emilo Estevez with whom she began a torrid romance that dipped in and out of engagement for nearly three years. She quickly divorces her first husband sometime after this torrid love affair begins. Estevez and his family are practically hollywood royalty and surely he and his family opened a few new doors for young sexy soap actress. "Estevez was definitely my first love," she told Cosmopolitan later. Dismissing her earlier marriage to Freddy Moore as something else entirely.

Estevez was not to be the love of her life as it turned out. Bruce Willis who is 7 years older (b 1955 Walter Bruce Willis in Idar-Oberstein, West Germany), met Moore at a screening of Estevez's 1987 film, "Stakeout" was apparently Mr. Right. Bruce that year had starred in his first movie "Blind Date" but was famous for the hit TV "Moonlighting" at the time. Instantly dumping Emilo the couple sees each other almost daily for just four months. They were married in Vegas at the Golden Nugget by a fittingly flamboyant minister "Little Richard" (singer) in 1987. Demi Bought A 10,000 dollar wedding dress and Bruce wrote a song for the wedding. From that over night love affair, the couple had eventually forged an old-fashioned family with three daughters, Rumer, Scout and Tallulah. The first girl Rumer born in 1988 to husband Bruce Wilis who just completed work on the film "Die Hard". The couple used 3 video cameras to record the birth of their 1st child. Demi was especially concerned whether they were all working at the time. Three years later their second child Scout is born in 1991. Finally the couples last daughter is born "Tallulah" in 1994.

Demi's took her career to a new level unquestionably in 1990 with the release of the movie "Ghost" starring Demi, Patrick Swayze and Whoopie Goldberg. The movie had great success and movie offers in 1991 poured in from every studio. Including less than notable "The Butchers Wife", the erotic thriller "Mortal Thoughts" co-starring with husband Bruce Willis and the bizzare comedy flick "Nothing but Trouble" with all star cast including Dan Aykroyd, John Candy and Chevy Chase. Later in
A Few Good Men in 1992 Demi works with hollywood most popular actors. She proves she has acting ability and isn't afraid to use her sexy seductive side and it pays big dividends for her career. Basically at this point she becomes one of hollywoods bigest sex symbols and A list actresses. Demi next appears playfully pregnant and compledtely nude on the cover of the August 1991 issue of Vanity Fair. in which she also media headlines, and then again in August 1992 issue, in which she posed nude in a painted mens suit. This almost begins to depict what will be Demi's womens power struggle with a male dominated hollywood persona.

In 1993 tabliods shocked everyone when Demi's mother posed nude in High Society Magazine embarassing Demi completely, clearly Demi and her mothers relationship had fallen apart. As it turned out Demi had been paying her mother's bills and at one point cut her off near this incident, they later reconsiled upon hearing the tragic news of her mother's terminal cancer.
By 1998 her mother sadly loses her battle with cancer and passes away of a rare inoperable brain cancer.

Demi ever driven to remake her image practically has pornstar sized breast enlargement surgery at 32 years old. Demi's career reaches its zenith as she films "Indecent Proposal" shocking but dazzling audiences with the question how much money would it take to sleep with someone's wife for the weekend ? Prices may vary consult your local retailer. Audiences first seeing her lusty new look in this edgy "what if" role starring Woody Harrilson. The film "Disclosure" in 1994 an erotic thriller starring Michael Douglas features her in a first badgirl role. Demi portrays a high-flying executive, Meredith, is out to ruin her former lover (Douglas), who she's just beaten to the top job in an electronics company, using every trick in the Karma Sutra book to ruin his career. Even some scenes in the film seem designed to show her incredible and perfect new breasts to delighted audiences. Demi's sort of slutty new look forever shreds her brat pack innocent girl image. She then films a string of less than great movies in the years featuring wanton nudity and Demi esque drama including : The Scarlet Letter, Now and Then and starring in the The Juror. These films pays off bigtime she is paid 16 million in these films combined, but the films dont thrill box office owners or fans alike.

That seeming bankability had helped vault Moore to the top of the A-list of Hollywood actresses. Also making her the first actress in history to break the 10 million dollar mark. But later acting choices made mainly for cash like 1996's Skin to the Max movie "Striptease" didn't make the 50 million it cost to produce. Demi gets paid 12 million to portray an exotic dancer/hot stripper. Demi researches her role by hanging out with strippers and practicing erotic dance moves for her new pet project. The film has cashed in the DVD afterlife eventually bringing back most of the money spent to produce the film. Then comes Demi as "G.I. Jane" (a picture many critics called publicity for the Army). It underwhelmed critics and movie audiences alike. However Demi and bruce become one of the richest couples in hollywood. She rakes in 23 million dollars for these 2 roles alone. In 1996 Demi won her fiirst and only award in a People's Choice Award for Favorite Actress in a Movie Drama for the film "G.I. Jane".

Alas from the start, tabloids and the rumor mill predicted Demi and Bruce's imminent rift. The couple proved the skeptics wrong for nearly 11 years. First as Moore's star rose to Willis's height, then as the hard-working couple spent more and more time apart. Perhaps the break up came because Willis had other things to concentrate on, like his still booming career in for example "The Fifth Element" and "Amageddon". The blazing sex symbol Moore, on the other hand, had few projects lined up. She also by now developed a bad reputation as an impossible actress to work with and gains the nickname "Gimmie Moore" for all the perks and cash she demands on film projects. In the early '90s her big pictures, including "Ghost" and "Indecent Proposal" had indeed proved huge with the public, critics' disapproval be damned. Meanwhile Demi's last few projects seemed to slow her career down quite a bit. Although Deconstructing Harry in 1997 was a first working with famed actor/director/producer legend Woody Allen. This role was little more than a cameo considering. Demi throughout her career really never came close to winning any remarkable acting awards.

In 1997 the couple wages a highly publicized court battle with former nanny, Kim Tannahill, who accused the pair especially Moore of being inattentive to the children and abusive employers. After more than ten years, the incessant nay saying proved right. The shockwave felt the following year when Moore and Willis split in the summer of 1998.
A few weeks after Demi's mother passed away Bruce had filed for separation and divorce. Friends called the parting amicable, though Liz Smith reported that "Demi has taken the breakup much harder than Bruce." They still remain freinds and Bruce even bought a house in the small town of Hailey Idaho (population : 2000) near Demi's elegant home.

Demi must have certianly reached a turning point in her life after so much heartbreak after 1998 a devistating year. She buys a huge ranch type property in Hailey Idaho (population : 2000) and moves the family away from hollywood spotlight to the seclusion of Montana. She remains there with the children for a sometime working only on the little seen film
Passion of Mind in 2000. In which a she stars in this psychological romantic thriller where fantasy and reality become indistinguishable for a woman leading a double life in her dreams. Later she does mange somehow to produce all the immensely popular "Austin Powers" Movies from 1999 thru 2002. Quietly turning 40 in 2002 she still looks incredibly beautiful and sexy as she takes on more soccer mom responsibilities.

In 2003 Demi makes a cameo comeback and plays the sexy fallen super angel in the Sequel to Charlies Angels dubbed "Full Throttle".
Opening in the summer of 2003, the film did well at the box office no small miracle considering it stars Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz, Lucy Liu and gueststars Demi Moore. However it didnt make as much as the original "Angels" hottie movie. Demi also turns up on the TV show "Will and Grace" in Feb. 2003 playing Jacks now grown up babysitter from the past.

As of April 2003 Demi's acting career seems poised for some type of comeback when she shocks the tabloids and begins dating Ashton Kutcher from TV's "That 70's Show". Ashton is 15 years younger than Demi and a media buzz swarms the 90s actress. That would make Ashton 4 years old when Demi posed nude for Oui Magazine. At any rate he whole family turned out for the premier of "Charlies Angels: Full Throttle" including Bruce Willis (who has a cameo in the film), the kids, and Demi's new man/boy Ashton. The Angels seemed pretty upset that Demi stole the spotlight at the movie premier. Apparantly the stars of the movie should have been first down the red carpet, not Demi and company. Rumors had it that the angels wouldn't sit or talk to Demi at the rest of the US and European openings of the movie. Evidently the new and improved Moore publicity train stops for no one, especially younger hotter Angels. Demi becomes freinds with stunning actress Lucy Liu during filming which seems like no surpise considering their "dont fuck with me" you man bastard personalities they seem to share.

Still, it would be foolhardy to ever count Moore down or out. The steel-willed actress has always seemed unfazed by the criticism and is always willing to get naked ambitions. Demi likes to be in control of any given situation and still has the dreaded "difficult to work with" label in Hollywood. The tabloids have recently blasted Demi relentlessly for all the cosmetic surgury she has under gone over the years. Sources in 2003 claim the actress, who reportedly spent over 250,000 on a total body transformation three years ago, is keen to undergo a proceedure to lift her sagging knees of all things because she wants her sexy body to be flawless. Indeed she still has an amazing figure and she certianly must have alot to offer to keep a 20 something boyfreind in her bedroom.

Demi recently exchanged her large breast implants for smaller ones for some unknown reason, probably gravity. Even more surpising rumors abound that Demi is pregnant with Ashton's baby and was recently spotted purchasing a baby crib at a celebrity charity auction. Demi and Ashton deny that the 43 year old is pregnant, but if she is she'd be about 6 months along and won't be able to hide it for much longer. The couple is still together after 2 years and marriage seemed impossible until now. Ashton is very much in love with the former power actress and in recent interviews seems to genuinely want to marry her. More than likely Demi fears the 15 year age differance between the couple may be a factor someday.

In the summer of 2005, it was rumoured Demi, 42, and Ashton, 27, were planning a secret Las Vegas wedding. Ashton and mother-of-three Demi reportedly commissioned matching wedding rings from celebrity jeweller Neil Lane and were planning to hold the ceremony at the city's famous Bellagio hotel. Demi is recently quoted saying she wants to expand her family and appears to be planning her 3rd marriage. Then on saturday September 23, 2005
the couple is married in a Kabala style wedding at a home in Beverly Hills, California. According to the media, they tied the knot in front of about 100 guests, friends and relatives including Moore's second husband Bruce Willis, Wilmer Valderrama, Lucy Liu, and Moore's three daughters. Her three daughters, Rumer, 17, Scout, 14, and Tallulah, 11, reportedly call Kutcher "MOD," standing for "My Other Dad." A website claiming to have obtained Ashton's private voice-mails, offers recordings allegedly pulled off Kutcher's cell phone, including one young lady (who isn't Demi Moore) graphically recounting a sex act she claimed to have performed with him the night before. Someone just got punk'd, but you can decide if it's Demi Moore or Ashton Kutcher.

Apparenty the couple had been planning a wedding all along and wanted to stay low on the media radar. Demi will turn 43 next month and the sexy actress marrys a man candy boyfriend 15 years her junior. Way to go Demi dosen't everyone wanna marry someone in their 20s when reaching their 40s. The hollywood jinx is on and the statisically the couple should be divorced within 3 years roughly in early 2008. The 5 year hollywood barrier is almost impossible to breach. Although Demi was married to Bruce Willis for almost 11 years.
