Demi Moore

Moore attended Fairfax High School in Hollywood but never finished. Moore signed with the Elite Modeling Agency at the age of 16 and left to work in Europe. She was later encouraged to take acting classes and then pursued a movie career. Not only did Moore model, she co-wrote songs and appeared in a music video. She also had a role in the soap opera, General Hospital, and starred in movies such as “Blame it on Rio,” “St. Elmo’s Fire,” and the huge hit, “Ghost.” Moore’s natural beauty and ability to work in many areas of the entertainment field brought her great success.
