Answer 1

I can help you if its for Hollywood. Not bolly wood. Hope this helps you win the competition. Its a long one you asked for details here we go.



Actor is Sylvester Stallone He's an icon. So your judges will have heard of him. I don't know how old you are.



He was born july 6 1946 in hells kitchen New york . He was born in a charity ward in New york and the doctor used foreceps to pull him out and they pinched a nerve in the left side of his face. So as he was growing up he was teased sometimes.As a child his idols were steve reeves superman and herculeas. His mother never gave up on him however and had faith in him. and sent him to a school in Switzerland to give her son a fair chance. And he excelled in football and acting class there. He knew what he wanted to do . So he left school and came back to the states. He applied for acting work and got some work in small films He met his first wife Sasha and they got married. and had two children Sergeoh and Sage One night he went to a boxing match . Where he saw two men fight. One man was much stronger than the other and he was a shoe in to win . But this little guy hung in there and although he didn't win he went much farther than what he exepected. and That gave Sly an idea. So he went home that night and told his wife. they stayed up all night and worked ona rough draft . He then shopped it around to movie theatres. Many liked the concept. But they wanted other actors in it. He said no the deal is I must play in the film take it or leave it. So they offered him alot of money for the script but not him. But he said to himsself this is his chance its all or nothing they take me or they don't get anything. And they agreed and voila ROCKY was born. This film has made 5 sequals the 6th is ROCKY BALBOA which will come to theatres this December 22 he Directed and acted in these films that brought in nearly a billion dollars. And is a winner of 3 academy awards including best picture. And of course he's done much more work since then over 30 films and still going strong. Since then he has remarried to his present wife Jennifer and he is very happy. they have 3 girls together. He is a self made man. Who was from the streets and made something out of himself. the hard way. Nothing was handed to him. He wasn't born into the business. He had a dream and he was determined and had the strength to see it all the way through. And to this day he still lives by that code. He's a driven man he continues to work in hollywood. He has branched out and has his own Restaurants called planet hollywood, he has his own health products called Instone. His own bottle water. His own tv show called the Contender on ESPN. the list goes on. He won't ever quit . Its how he's made. And very important message for the judges if you want to put this down. ROCKY is much more than a film its about dreams and going after what you want in life. and that just cause your a certain age or people say you can't do it. He makes it happen. He cleares the road blocks. He doesn't know the meaning of you can't do that. He believes in being successful and never quiting and going the distance and to go after what you want in life. Thats why he is where he is today. Not everyone does that. Some of us are told we can't but he made it work to his advantage. And turned it around to benefit him. Thats rare. Thats the difference in life. you can sit and watch it go by. Or you can take the bull by the horns as they say and make it happen. He's a make it happen kind of guy. These types of people get ahead in life. and are leaders.



I hope this helps you win the competition good luck .



and don't forget to tell your friends about ROCKY BALBOA coming out this December 22 now that you have his back ground would be very good for you to see this movie. :-)

Answer 2

I'll try, since he is so much in the news lately let's try Mel Gibson.

Mel was born into a blue-collar, working class family on January 3, 1956 in Peekskill, NY, number 6 of 11 children, all born and raised Catholic. His father's name is Hutton, his mother's name was (she passed away in 1990) Anna. His father worked for the New York transit authority until he was severely injured on the job, he sued, won a large settlement and used the money to start a new life for his family by moving them to Anna's native Australia in 1968 when Mel was 12. Originally Mel wanted to be a Priest, but his older sister Patrica saw his natural acting ability and signed him up for Acting Summer Camp, he caught the bug and the rest of that is history. He first made a few TV Films in Australia and was on a short lived Soap Opera there before being cast in the lead role of MAD MAX that began filming in 1977 but wasn't released until 1979. He made several more theatrical films after MAD MAX, including ATTACK FORCE Z, MRS SOFFEL & THE RIVER before being cast in the film that would make him a mega-star, LETHAL WEAPON. For several years he had dual citizenship between Austrailia and the USA, he gave that up in 1989, choosing to his original American citizenship, he now has homes in both countries. He met dental assistant Robyn Moore on a blind date in early 1979, they hit it off very well and wed in Oct of 1980 when their first child and only daughter, Hannah was just a few weeks old. He has remained Catholic and even went so far as to build a church that wants to see Vatican One returned. Robyn was and still is Church Of England. Their 7 children, Hannah, twins Edward & Christian, Louis, Milo, William and Thomas were all raised in the Catholic faith. Mel does not hate Jews, his FATHER does, who remarried a woman just like himself named Joye less than a year after Anna's sudden death. Mel had been at his father's home a few short hours before falling off the wagon and getting arrested on PCH July 28th of this year, while he doesn't agree with his father, he refuses to speak against him or his step-mother Joye. Mel is 5'7, weigh 218 pounds, needs glasses to read and has worn lifts in his trademark cowboy boots since he was 18. His younger brother Donal is also an actor who has appeared in many of Mel's films. His entire family is of full IRISH desent.

Answer 7

Rubber-faced, hyperkinetic Jim Carrey went from a life of poverty in his native Canada to become the highest-priced comic actor in the known universe. Encouraged by his father, he began performing routines at stand-up clubs in Toronto at age 15. While not exactly winning over the crowds then, Carrey returned to the same venue two years later with a more polished delivery and caught the attention of booking agents who hired him to open for Rodney Dangerfield in Las Vegas. Again, his relative youth worked against him and he returned north where he acted in the made-for-Canadian TV-movie "Rubberface" (1981), playing a struggling stand-up comic.



After appearing on "The Tonight Show", Carrey caught his first feature role as a draft dodger whose faked death is unwittingly unmasked by a con artist in Richard Lester's quirky comedy "Finders Keepers" (1984). He fared better as a naive cartoonist in the "The Duck Factory" (NBC, 1984), a lively failure from producer Jay Tarses about life in an animation studio. Carrey began to alternate between working comedy clubs (where his impressions and pliable body language kept his star on ascent) and supporting roles in features, notably as a back-up singer buddy to Nicolas Cage in "Peggy Sue Got Married" (1986). The comic also landed parts in two Buddy Van Horn-directed Clint Eastwood vehicles, "The Dead Pool" (1988) and "Pink Cadillac" (1989), after Eastwood had seen Carrey do an impression of him. But it took his joining the ensemble of Fox's "In Living Color" in 1990 for him to have the opportunity to truly flaunt his prodigious talent. Though Keenan and Damon Wayans received the lion's share of the credit, it was Carrey's presence (as the "white guy") from the outset that was integral to the show's phenomenal success.



Carrey made the leap to feature leading man with the surprise smash "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective" (1994). A non-stop showcase for his distinctive brand of physical and verbal humor, "Ace" featured outrageous riffs, including an extended sequence where he talked out of his butt. While most critics dismissed the film, audiences flocked to the theaters and made Carrey bankable. "The Mask" (1994), filmed back-to-back with "Ace", firmly established his box-office clout as it garnered over $20 million in its first weekend. Here he played an everyday schlub who finds a magical mask that turns him into an over-sexed cartoon superhero (with a nod to Tex Avery)--sort of a more extreme take on Jerry Lewis' "The Nutty Professor". The film also boasted an extended song and dance sequence with Carrey belting out the Desi Arnaz rumba number "Cuban Pete.”



He followed these back-to-back successes with yet another box-office hit "Dumb and Dumber" (1994), which, though thin on plot, further showcased his flair for low-brow physical comedy. Carrey kept on rolling when he donned an orange wig and skin-tight green jumper to play the scene-stealing Riddler in "Batman Forever" (1995). Not unlike Jack Nicholson's Joker or Michelle's Pfeiffer's Catwoman, his villain purloined the film, walking away with the best lines and notices. The inevitable sequel, "Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls" (also 1995), opened with a record-breaking $40 million box office take its first weekend. Some thought it better than its precursor, but many considered it lazily conceived and Carrey's performance nowhere near as inspired the second time around. Although it featured the memorable sight of him passing through a hippopotamus.



The darkly comic "The Cable Guy" (1996) tanked at the box office, more because of a weak script and Ben Stiller's misguided direction than Carrey who made the most of the pitifully raw material. As a lonely, slightly menacing cable TV installer who infiltrates the life of one of his customers (Matthew Broderick), he got to punctuate his trademark craziness with touches of dramatic compassion, but not everybody appreciated the added elements to his performance. Carrey's core audience of kids who turned out expecting to see adolescent zaniness did not like the sinister aspects, and word of mouth killed the movie after its initial brisk business, ending his four-picture run of films that grossed over $100 million domestically. "Liar Liar" (1997) restored his "big money" credentials by earning more than $180 million by the end of the year. In a sophisticated role, he managed to put the farce over with his side-splitting antics while actually playing a recognizable human being, and his convincing sincerity gave every indication that his wish to be a serious actor was about to come true.



Trying to protect his privacy as a superstar, Carrey has engaged in some adrenaline-pumping, high-speed hijinks to avoid prying cameras. Extend that scenario to a world of media omnipotence, and who better to play Truman Burbank, the unwitting star of the most popular program on TV, "The Truman Show" (1998), a deliciously paranoid concept which married Norman Rockwell to George Orwell. Having broadened his palette with "Liar, Liar,” Carrey continued his progress away from the giant id of his early work under the expert direction of Peter Weir, eliminating the egregiously big mannerisms in the creation of an insurance man who begins to suspect a conspiracy around him and eventually learns that his whole life has been broadcast as a 24-hour-a-day television show. The combined brilliance of Weir and screenwriter Andrew Niccol provided Carrey an outstandingly successful change of pace role, and the actor's impressively disciplined performance earned him accolades. To quote Rob Friedman, an executive vice president at Paramount: "Anybody who said they weren't sure how Jim would do with something that might have been perceived as 'outside of his realm' now knows that there is no 'outside his realm.'"



Carrey campaigned heavily for the part of Andy Kaufman in "Man on the Moon" (1999), working with writer Judd Apatow and hiring a production crew to film an audition tape. Fresh from his triumph with Weir, he relished the opportunity to work with Milos Forman. The biopic offered the best of both worlds: As the wildly inventive Kaufman, Carrey could give full rein to his genius for impressions and improvisation while at the same time inhabiting the tortured soul of the late comic. In a classic example of art imitating life, he suffered neck injuries recreating the scene in which Kaufman injured his neck in the ring with pro wrestler Jerry Lawlor. Lawlor, playing himself, reacted to the actor's spitting in his face with a little ad-libbed pile-driving of his own. Many believed the event was nothing but a publicity stunt, and though Carrey's people insisted it was no stunt, it certainly blurred the line between character and performer. For all the prerelease hoopla, the film--although held together by Carrey's winning performance--was ultimately little more than a standard biopic, hitting all the significant milestones but offering little insight into what drove Kaufman.



Carrey next returned to anything-goes style comedy, reuniting with the Farrelly brothers for "Me, Myself and Irene" (2000), a far-out romantic comedy that pitted Carrey against himself--he played a man with split personalities—vying for the affections of Renee Zellweger. Although there were some inspired moments of sheer lunacy, the film failed to reach the comic highs of earlier efforts from both Carrey or the Farrelly's, due in part to an overload of gross-out moments and the darker shadings of one of Carrey's personalities. Vastly more satisfying was Carrey's next collaboration, playing the classic Christmas curmudgeon in a big-screen, live-action version of "Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas" (2000) for director Rob Howard. Although the expanded screen story stumbled occasionally, Carrey carried the ball across the finish line in one of his wildest, and most appropriately cartoonish, performances yet—raking in tremendous box office receipts along the way.



In another apparent bid to gain further credibility as a "serious" actor, Carrey signed on to writer/director Frank Darabont's "The Majestic" (2001), a 1950s Capra-esque fable about a troubled, amnesiac Hollywood screenwriter who becomes mistaken for a small California town's long-lost WWII hometown hero. Carrey's earnest turn could not overcome a wealth of tepid reviews, and audiences skipped the film for the most part. Continuing his trend of balancing dramatic efforts with zany comedy, Carrey next became the titular protagonist of the hit "Bruce Almighty" (2003), a TV newsman who unexpectedly receives God's omnipotent abilities when the deity decides to take a break. The film reunited the actor with his "Liar, Liar" helmer Tom Shadyac.



Carrey delivered one of his best performances and most rewarding projects, teaming with director Michel Gondry and the notoriously off-kilter screenwriter Charlie Kauffman for "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" (2004), a delightful serio-comic romance in which Carrey's Joel Barish undergoes a procedure designed to erase away all memories of his recently heartbreaking relationship with a impetuous free spirit (Kate Winslett) only to decide mid-process he wants to preserve her in his mind. Although the film was not a commercial blockbuster, it was easily the best attempt to tap both the actor's considerable serious and comedic talents to date. Later that same year he followed up with another bravura performance, this time in his more familiar high-comic mode, adding uproarious verve the other uneven adaptation of the children's classic tale "Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events" (2004) as the amusingly villainous Count Olaf.



Carrey then starred opposite Tea Leoni in the high-profile comedy, “Fun With Dick and Jane” (2005), a remake of the 1976 film starring Jane Fonda and George Segal. In the updated version, Carrey and Leoni played Dick and Jane Harper, a married couple so desperate to retain their deluxe suburban home and luxury cars after Dick loses his job that they resort to armed robbery—even if all they want is an iced mocha. Meanwhile, Carrey was cast against type in Joel Schumacher’s psychological thriller “The Number 23” (lensed 2006) wherein he played a man obsessed with an obscure book that he becomes convinced is based on his own life.
