MOST TALENTED AND LUCKIEST CELEBRITIES
DEMI MOORE
She
appeared in one episode of his hit TV series Moonlighting in 1989. 1988/89
saw Moore in The Seventh Sign and We’re No Angels, but it was another year
before she made the Hollywood A-list (and netted a Golden Globe nomination)
with 1990's Ghost. The next decade brought Moore three daughters,
high-profile nude poses on covers of Vanity Fair, television appearances,
“Best Dressed” and “Most Beautiful” titles, investment in the financially
insecure Planet Hollywood chain, separation (after 10 years) from Willis,
and before- and behind-the-camera roles in a string of movies -- Nothing But
Trouble (1991), Mortal Thoughts (1991, also co-producer), The Butcher’s Wife
(1991), A Few Good Men (1992), Indecent Proposal (1993 - MTV Movie and
People’s Choice and ShoWest awards), Disclosure (1994), Now and Then (1995,
also produced), The Scarlet Letter (1995 - daughter Tallulah appeared as
well), The Juror (1996 - People’s Choice award), Striptease (1996 - oops, a
Razzie for worst actress; daughter Rumer also appeared), Deconstructing
Harry (1997), GI Jane (1997, also produced), Destination Anywhere (1997),
and the Austin Powers movies (1997 and 1999, produced). The husky-voiced
Moore lent her eloquence, as well, to animated films and a spoken word CD.
In 1999 Moore added “editor” to her list of accomplishments, taking on that
assignment for the millennium issue of Marie Claire magazine. Upcoming are
roles in Basic Instinct 2 and Passion of Mind. Moore has risen to the top of
her profession with a determination that is alternately mocked and respected
by her peers. She is flippantly accused of “naked ambition,” but this star’s
drive is backed by nothing less than style, talent, beauty and brains.
