Justin Bieber


Justin Drew Bieber born on March 1st 1994 in London Ontario. Raised in Stratford, Ontario. Justin is a Canadian pop,R&B singer/songwriter and actor.
Justin's mother, Patricia Lynn "Pattie" Mallette, was 18 years old when she became pregnant with her son. Mallette, who worked a series of low-paying office jobs, raised Bieber as a single mother in low-income housing. Justin has maintained contact with his father, Jeremy Jack Bieber, who married another woman and had two children. His paternal great-grandfather was a German immigrant to Canada. His mother's ancestry is French Canadian.
Justin has been nominated and awarded numerous accolades over the past few years, winning Artist of the Year at the 2010 American Music Awards.
During his childhood, Justin was interested in hockey,soccer and chess. He often kept his musical aspirations to himself. As he grew up, Justin taught himself to play the piano, drums, guitar, and trumpet. Early in 2007 when he was twelve Justin sang Ne-Yo's "So Sick" for a local singing competition in Stratford and placed second. Mallette posted a video of the performance on You Tube for their family and friends to see. She continued to upload videos of Bieber singing covers of various R&B songs, and Bieber's popularity on the site grew. The longer hairstyle formerly worn by Justin and its popularity with teenage girls proved to be cultural phenomenon, becoming one of the most copied hairstyles among teenage boys. Justin's hairstyle has also proved popular with young lesbians. He ended up changing his hairstyle in February 2011 and a lock of Justin Bieber's hair has been sold for $40,668 (£25,024) in a charity sale on Ebay with 98 bids in total. The hair actually toured America with its own bodyguard, and fans could have their picture taken with it in return for a charitable donation. Justin donated the winnings to a charity which rescues and rehabilitates animals.
Music includes his debut single "One Time".  My World(2009),My World 2.0(2010),My Worlds Acoustic(2010),My Worlds:The Collection(2010),Never Say Never-The Remixes(2011).
January 2010 The music video of "Baby" is currently ranked as the most viewed and most discussed YouTube video and was the most disliked until being overtaken by Rebecca Black's song "Friday".

Lucy Liu

Lucy Alexis Liu was born on December 2nd, 1968.  Lucy was born in Jackson Heights, Queens, New York.
Her parents came to America from Taiwan.  Her father, Tom, was a civil engineer and her mother, Cecilia was a Biochemist in Taiwan.  They had to sacrifice those careers in Taiwan to come to the United States.
Her family spoke Mandarin at home and she did not learn English until she was five years old.
She attended the Joseph Pulitzer Middle School and she graduated from New York City's Stuyvesant High School in 1986.  She also attended New York University for one year, before transferring to the University of Michigan, where she joined the Chi Omega sorority and graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Asian Languages and Cultures.  At one point, she actually worked as a waitress in Michigan.
In a Jane interview, she is quoted as saying,
"I think people sometimes get the wrong impression when they're like, 'Oh, well, so-and-so was straight and then she was gay, and now she's straight again,' you know? But it's like, how many times do I have to kiss a woman before I'm gay? Everybody wants to label people. Sometimes you just fall in love with somebody, and you're really not thinking about what gender or whatever they happen to be. I think that if I happen to fall in love with a woman, everyone's going to make a big deal out of it. But if I happen to fall in love with a man, nobody cares." Lucy rock climbs, practices martial arts,skis and plays the accordion.
She is also an artist in several media, and has had three gallery shows showcasing her collage, paintings, and photography.  Lucy is a spokesperson in support for marriage equality for gays and lesbians.
She has said about her background, "when you grow up Asian American it’s difficult because you don’t know if you’re Asian or you’re American. You get confused... You need to recognize where your background is from. I think it’s important. Just for yourself. It makes you more whole. It does."
I like Lucy in Payback,Shanghai Noon,Lucky Number Slevin and the voice of Master Viper in Kung Fu Panda.

Patrick Warburton

Patrick John Warburton born on November 14th, 1964.
Patrick was born in Paterson, New Jersey and grew up in Huntington Beach California. He attended Saints Simon and Jude Catholic School. Moved there with his family when he was three years old.
Patrick attended Servite High School in Anaheim, California and Newport Harbor High School in Newport Beach California.
His father, John Warburton, is an orthopedic surgeon and his mother, Barbara Lord (née Gratz), is an actress. He has three sisters, Mary, Lara, and Megan.
He studied marine biology at Orange Coast College in Costa Mesa California but he ended up dropping out to pursue modeling and acting.
He is an American actor in television,film and he does a lot of voices. He is known best for his several TV roles. The best role in my opinion was when he played David Puddy on Scienfeld. All I have to do is look at the guy and it makes me smile. He was also in The Tick, the evil Johnny Johnson on NewsRadio and anchorman Jeb Denton on Less Than Perfect.
His distinctive deep voice has been lent to well-known roles including Ken in Bee Movie,Kronk in The Emperor's New Groove and its sequels, bodyguard Brock Samson on The Venture Bros., paraplegic police officer Joe Swanson on Family Guy, Steve Barkin on Kim Possible, Buzz Lightyear in the Buzz Lightyear of Star Command TV series, and The Wolf in Hoodwinked among others. He currently stars as macho married man Jeff Bingham in the CBS television program Rules of Engagement.
I liked him in the movie Big Trouble when he says "Was that a goat"? That was the best part of that movie for me. That made me laugh my ass off!
Patrick has been married to Cathy Jennings since 1991; they have four children - Talon Patrick (born in 1992), Alexandra Catherine (born 1994), Shane (born 1998) and Gabriel (born October 2000). They live in Camarillo, California.

Her last name is pronounced pree-pawn, in case you were wondering like I was. Born March 7th 1980 in Watchung, New Jersey. She's beautiful,talented and smart. The youngest of five children.
Her mother Marjorie, a high school teacher, and her father's name was Michael. He was an orthopedic surgeon. He passed away during heart surgery in 1993.
She attended Watchung Hills Regional High School.  She studied at Caroline Thomas' Total Theater Lab in New York City.  Her father was a Russian Jew and her mother is Irish Catholic.  Yet in a December 2007 interview in Women's Health, Prepon stated that she was in fact a Scientologist.
Here she is in this video below back in 1996. "six underground" by Sneaker Pimps.

4 minutes 4 seconds

That '70s Show was huge for all of the actors and actresses. I believe she can only go up from here on out. I guess she was named one of Stuff magazine's 102 Sexiest Women of the year.

Will Smith

Willard Christopher Smith Jr. born September 25th 1968. I remember him first from his music with DJ Jazzy Jeff. Like "You Saw My Blinker Bitch", "Parents Just Don't Understand"
and "Summertime".
Of course after that he was in the classic hit show called The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. I myself even got caught up into it watching nearly every episode there was.
Will was born and raised in West Philadelphia and spent some time in Germantown which is in North West Philadelphia. He is married to Jada Pinkett and has two kids Jaden Christopher Syre (born 1998), his co-star in The Pursuit of Happyness, and Willow Camille Reign (born 2000), who appeared as his daughter in I Am Legend. Caroline (his mother) was a school administrator who worked for the Philadelphia school board, and his father, Willard Christopher Smith, Sr., was a refrigeration engineer. He was raised to be Baptist. His parents were separated when Will was 13 but didn't get divorced until he was about 30 years old.

I think Will Smith is a fantastic actor. Here are a few movies that I liked him in Bad Boys,Independence Day,Men In Black,Enemy of the State. I,Robot and I Am Legend.
I can't wait to see him in more movies.

4 minutes 45 seconds
