The Funny yet Charming Ashton Kutcher

I don't believe that old cliché that good things come to those who wait. I think good things come to those who want something so bad they can't sit still. - Ashton Kutcher



Ashton Kutcher is a great young actor who has been known for romantic movies that fall under the comedy/drama genre. He stands at a towering height of 6’2 ½ and was discovered by a talent scout when he was still a biochemical engineering student way back in 1997. By 2010, he was already included in the Top 100 Most Influential People of Time Magazine. Who would ever thought this young guy who used to donate blood just to have money and who worked as a job sweeper would be able to reach the peak of career in acting and make him even the new husband of the ever lovely Demi Moore?



The two even created a foundation that helps stop child sex slavery all over the world. He grew to be more than an actor but also as a co-founder of a studio for social media that is called Katalyst. Many say that his first big break that caught everyone’s attention was his role in the hit television series That 70’s Show and also for MTV’s Punk’d where he was the host. He also was one of the creators of that show along with his good friend Jason Goldberg.



Not many know that he was supposed to be the one to play the role that Josh Hartnett had in Pearl Harbor. He also has two toes right on his left foot which are webbed together and has the same birthday as Chris Rock. He was an ex- of the late Brittany Murphy.



When he and Demi got married, researchers say that there were only just about 100 guests and among them were Bruce Willis who is the ex-husband of Moore. His relationship with the couple’s kids is smooth and easy that they even call him as MOD, short for My Other Dad.







Unraveling Jodie Foster



Jodie Foster started her career as a child actress in tomboyish roles. She was known for portraying complex characters in film which include of course the most popular Silence of the Lambs. Unlike other stars who started as a child actress, she did not have a hard time making a very smooth transition to taking mature and more adult roles. It was in 1988 when she portrayed the role of a rape victim who fights the injustice of the law system for women. It was for this performance and the one as Clarice Starling in the first mentioned movie that made her win two Best Actress trophies at the Academy Awards.



When the 90s came, she started venturing out to film making and it was for the movie Little Man Tate that she started working as a director-actress. She was the co-producer for the film Nell where she also got another Oscar nomination for best actress. Her other amazing films in her acting resume include Panic Room, Inside Man, The Brave One and The Beaver.



It was in 2007 when she made huge news in the headlines due to her acceptance speech in one prestigious event where she paid tribute to her long time partner Cydney Bernard. Some press thought this was her way of coming out. Both were never seen being affectionate to each other but it was frequent that Bernard was seen with the actress’ kids on almost every occasion. A year later, news spread that the two have separated.



Johnny Depp - His Acting Depth Is More Than Just His Pretty Face


Johnny Depp is more than just a good looking actor. He also is a good director and a very talented musician. His real name is John Christopher Depp, Jr. and was born in Kentucky. He admits that as a kid, he was very withdrawn and is considered as odd doing always weird things all the time.


He started at 16 as a member of a garage band from when he also dropped out of high school. He was 21 when he was first introduced to Nicolas Cage who introduced the young actor to a Hollywood agent. He then became an overnight teen idol for the hit TV series 21 Jump Street and became very memorable by landing the title role in the Tim Burton classic Edward Scissorhands.


From then on, Depp did not stop making hit movies in the likings of Don Juan DeMarco, Donnie Brasco, Sleepy Hallow, Once Upon A Time In Mexico, and a lot more. He was a sure fire hit for the role of Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean and each of its every film sequel. He worked with Tim Burton once again for films like Sweeney Todd and Alice in Wonderland.


Johnny Depp has a total of 13 tattoos which includes his very popular tattoo called Winona Forever which he altered to Wino Forever when he broke up with Winona Ryder.
