Kristen Jaymes Stewart

Vampires or Werewolves?  For 'Bella' I guess this was an easy decision considering she was dating a vampire in the movie Twilight.  Now lets be serious, obviously Taylor Lautner, the werewolf, was the better choice.  I guess other people with no taste would choose the vampire Robert Pattinson.  I  feel bad for the people who have poor sight and choose a vampire over a werewolf.  Now, if you have no idea about who/what I am referring to you must live in a planet far away from Earth.
Born on April 9, 1990 (age 24) Kristen was destined for greatness.  Kirsten Jaymes Stewart who is the daughter of Jules Mann-Stewart and John Stewart has an interesting life that started from when she was eight years old.  Kristen was the only girl out of the three children that her parents had.  She has three brothers Cameron, Taylor, and Dana.  Taylor who is the same age as her, he was adopted when they were both 13 years old.  Kristen was born in Los Angeles, but spent some of her earlier years in Colorado and Pennsylvania, but then they moved back to Los Angeles when she was eight.  At that time they did have their son Taylor until five years after moving back to Los Angeles.  Kristen was enrolled in school up until the age of 13-14 when she was in eighth grade.  She studied her work at home and got her high school diploma while filming The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.

Starting as early as eight years old was when Kristen started acting.  She was spotted by a scout agent, and then a couple months after that she started starring in Disney.  Kristen's first time in front of a camera was when she was starring in her very first movie, The Thirteenth Year.  She also starred with Jodie Foster in Panic Room, and Dennis Quaid, and Sharon Stone in, Cold Creek Manor, in 2003.  Kristen was nominated for three consecutive years from 2003-2005 for the Young Artist Award, but sadly Kristen had never won.

All the Twilight movies

Finally, back to Twilight.  This is how Kristen became a household name.  In this series of Twilight it contains three movies to complete it.  Kristen had starred as the lead role, Bella Swan, in all three movies.  Although Kristen had to work her way up the ladder to get to where she is now.  Kristen played in small parts with some other actors as well.  One example is the movie Zathura.  In this movie Kristen played as a minor part being Josh Hutcherson's (one of the main characters on the Hunger Games) older sister.
In conclusion,  Kristen Jaymes Stewart has worked her way up to where she is now.  Like all actors and actresses Kristen started at rock bottom in her career.  Kristen got lucky and somewhat had it easy considering she was accidentally discovered by an agent.  But, as lucky as she was Kristen never took it for granted.  Hard work and integrity payed off for Kristen, and this should serve as a lesson to all.

Selena Marie Gomez

Remember purple dinosaur that's name is Barney? Well..I do because he used to scare me as a kid.  But, for this young actress the purple dinosaur started out her whole acting career.  This actress doesn't have just one job to keep her tied down, but she has multiple jobs that she does.  Most of us know her for singing and acting skills, but she is also a dancer, and even a fashion designer!
Selena Marie Gomez didn't grow up with designer clothing, and a huge house.  Selena lived in a middle class environment.  Her mother Mandy Teefey gave birth to Selena on July 22, 1992, when she was 16.  Both her parents Mandy, and her father Ricardo Gomez lived together paying paycheck to paycheck.  Sadly, Selena's parents divorced when she was five years old.  And in an interview Selena admitted to always being mad at her mother for divorcing her father, and she feels regret for that and now defends single-parenthood.  On the bright side of things her mother remarried and is now married to Brian Teefey.  Rumors were on June 12 2013 her mother gave birth to a girl, which is true.  Now they have a daughter named Gracie Elliot Teefey, which would be Selena's half sister.

Selena started off as just little parts in shows.  Like in Barney she was "Gianna" in 2001, but they had let her go from the series after two short years. Then she had a small part in Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over. Selena has also been in small parts in Disney shows.  Selena appeared on Hannah Montana as one of Hannah's enemies, "Mikayla." Do you guys also remember the Disney show the Suite Life of Zack and Cody?  Well, Selena also appeared on that as a small part as "Gwen."  Selena has also played in a series, Wizards of Waverly Place, which lasted from 2007-2012.  Selena had also starred in movies that were additional movies to Wizards of Waverly Place.
But, as every actor and actress move up in their life they have to make decisions.  So, she decided to leave the Disney image and took on more challenging roles.  Aside from that, Selena is also a singer and she has 31 songs that are her own, and has a few albums out. Selena has had an interesting way of becoming a star, since her acting talent was recognized from that weird purple dinosaur.  But, as we can all see Selena has risen above from what she lived like as a child, and is now a very successful singer and actress.

Rebel Melanie Elizabeth Wilson

Acapella.  It is singing without instruments, and usually some groups use their voices to make instrumental sounds.  Well, one movie uses acapella throughout the whole two hours of the movie.  Do you know the “cup song?” I would figure you would considering it was so popular in 2012.  The movie is Pitch Perfect.

Almost everyone has seen the movie, whether in theaters or in the comfort of your own home.  One person in the movie everyone knows, the one that brings the laughter, is ‘Fat Amy.’  Since we all know her as Fat Amy, I think I should tell you about Rebel Wilson.  She is the one who brought humor to the whole movie Pitch Perfect.

Rebel Wilson born on February 3, 1986, is an actress and comedian, but she also has a law degree sort of as a backup in case acting was to fail her.  Rebel was born in Sydney, Australia, and had an interesting childhood.  It’s not a childhood a normal kid would have.  Rebel spent her years growing up traveling across the country selling canine products, because her parents were professional dog handlers.  Rebel began acting in Australia, and studied at the Australian Theater for Young People, and was soon known for her humor.

Rebel has been in many movies over the years, and her biggest breakthrough was in 2011 for the movie Bridesmaids. Rebel has been in more movies that deal with adults, but she has done some movies that are for kids like: Ice Age: Continental Drift, and Kung Fu Panda.  As you can see Rebel didn't have an ordinary childhood.  Although, you can see that Rebel had a gift that was a natural talent of acting.  Yes, that may have helped Rebel with landing spots on shows, and movies, but she has tried to make her dreams come true. Rebel is one example of true talent and hard work, and you can tell that Rebel is never going to let her career just pass her by, she is going to live in the moment like everyone should.

Shailene Diann Woodley

Well hasn't everyone heard the buzz about that movie called Divergent or the book? Well if you have never heard anything you must live under a rock. I'm being completely serious too. Anyway, I'm going to focus on the leading actress in the movie Divergent. You know that pretty girl playing the lead role? Yeah her. 

Since you probably know nothing about Shailene Diann Woodley besides her name, and that she starred in Divergent, I'm going to tell you some things about her. She has had a very successful life being a former model and now an actress. Shailene will have more exciting things to come. At age four Shailene had began modeling for commercials. She must have been a gorgeous baby, because I know I couldn't have became a model at age four! Shailene was born/raised in Simi Valley, CA. Her parents are Lonnie Woodley, her father, and Lori Woodley, her mother. Shailene had a small family with it just being her parents, her, and her little brother Tanner Woodley. But, Shailene didn't have a perfect life as many of you may think. She had went through some pretty hard times. I would think that a tough time in her life would be when her parents divorced when she was 14. 

The trouble doesn't stop there if that's what you're thinking. A year after that, at age 15, Shailene was diagnosed with scoliosis, a medical condition where a persons spine is curved from side to side. Although those things may have affected Shailene, she still continued to chase her dreams. Jumping back to when Shailene was five was when she started acting. An agent spotted her and thought she had potential, so he took a shot on her. Although her parents knew she was going to rise to fame, they had made an agreement when she was old enough to understand to abide by three rules.  The three rules were: she must remain the person that she is, she must stay/do well in school, and she MUST have FUN. 

In 1991 Shailene had landed a role in  the TV movie- Replacing Dad. Then in 2005 Shailene had starred in  a movie called Felicity.  Then six years later, in 2011, she appeared in a movie called, The Descendants. Starring as the daughter of George Clooney. That is probably one of the movies she is best known for and since she starred in five different seasons of The Secret Life of the American Teenager. Now we can jump up a few years to the year 2014, where she starred in two major movies. One is, of course, Divergent. Shailene had starred as the lead character Beatrice, where she lived in a universe that was separated into five different factions, which is a small organized group. Then the second movie, which is the BEST movie/book ever, is called The Fault in Our Stars. In that movie Shailene starred as the lead character Hazel. It's basically an epic love story. A MUST READ AND MUST SEE!

Well, I think I did a pretty good job with informing you about Shailene. At least I think I did. Anyway, as you can tell from this whole blog about her that she has had a pretty cool life. I think she does at least. Shailene's career isn't ending anytime soon, it is merely beginning my friends.  You will see Shailene is many more movies to come. For those of you Divergent fans, as you already know, there is going to be a second movie, and third movie! Which is Insurgent and Allegiant.  Insurgent comes out in theaters on March 20, 2015, and Allegiant comes out in theaters March 18, 2016. So make sure to go and watch it!

Joshua Ryan Hutcherson

Everyone knows or has at least heard of The Hunger Games. We should know the names or the face of the lead role stars. The one I will be focusing on is Joshua Hutcherson. Josh is a film actor and a television actor. A film actor is a well known person for playing in leading roles for a movie. On the other hand, a television actor is someone who portrayed a character on a t.v. show (including people and credited animals).
Joshua was born in Union, Kentucky, on October 12, 1992. Joshua is the oldest of two kids. Chris, and Michelle Hutcherson are his parents, and he also has a brother named Conner Hutcherson. According to Joshua's parents he wanted to be an actor when he was 4. When he was nine his parents consented to take him to a screen test. His acting coach had said, ¨He is a natural!¨  After that his acting coach had proposed an idea for his parents to take him to Hollywood.
Since he started landing roles almost immediately he took parts in TV shows and movies in 2002, along with a guest spot on the TV show ER. A few years after that he landed a small part in his first feature film, American Splendor, in 2004. The same year he preformed in his first motion- capture film The Polar Express. The next few years Joshua had appeared in countless films starring as a little boy in Little Manhattan and in a space adventure in Zathura.  One of the next films he had starred in after Little Manhattan and Zathura, he was playing Robin Williams' son in RV, also followed by the lead in a film that is a fantasy/drama called the Bridge to Terabithia. 

Joshua had also starred in more action type films such as Journey to the Center of the Earth and Journey 2: The Mysterious Island. But Joshua wanted to break free of being in ¨little kid¨ movies so to speak and wanted to start being in more mature movies and TV shows. In 2012 he made a transition from a child star to a legitimate film actor as Peeta Mellark, in The Hunger Games. Joshua had said in an interview, ¨I think most of my fame is from luck, and I don't know what I would do if my luck ran out, but until then I am going to continue to chase my dreams.¨

Channing Matthew Tatum

Do you know the movie 22 Jump Street? The one starring Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill? Well if you have heard or seen any movies that Channing has starred in you might want to stay and read. Then again if you're a person that thinks this blog is boring you can click out of this. Anyway, as you all know Channing Tatum is an actor, but he is also a dancer, and a model. In my opinion I think Channing is best known for his acting skills rather than his dancing, and modeling skills.

Channing was born on April 26th, 1980 in Cullman Alabama. His parents are Glenn and Kay Tatum. Channing has two siblings, Paige and a step-brother named Christopher Anderson. Growing up he attended Gaither High School in Tampa Florida, and transferred to Tampa Catholic High School after he was finished with his sophomore year. In both schools he was involved in track and field, baseball, soccer, and football.
Upon graduation Channing was offered a football scholarship to Glenville State College, but he had turned it down to go after other interests.
Going further into Channings' life his first time in front of a camera was when he began modeling. He was discovered on the streets of Miami and signed with a modeling agency. Channing has modeled for Dolce & Gabbana, Aeropostale, and even Abercrombie & Fitch. He has even starred in commercials for Pepsi, and Mountain Dew. Channing decided to make a transaction from modeling to acting. So, with that he began acting in 2004.

In 2006 Channing got a huge break landing two lead roles, one was in Step Up, and the other was in, She's The Man. Over the years Channing has starred/appeared in many movies, and some television shows. Hitting the big screen in 2009 he had landed two high-profile projects, which are G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra and Public Enemies. Although he has had a very successful life on stage, he did have exciting things going on offstage as well. On September 2008 Channing proposed to Jenna Dewan in Maui. That following year the couple finally got married on July 11th, 2009. Four years later the two wanted to start a family, and had a daughter on May 31st, 2013 named Everly Tatum. Channing has done a lot of things in his life time of 34 years, and you will be seeing him in the future doing more movies, maybe even starring in G.I. Joe: Retaliation.

Zachary David Alexander Efron

Do you remember the three movies that have singing, dancing, and most guys say that the movie is stupid? If you're thinking of the same movies I am, then you know that Zac Efron plays in them. High School Musical one, two , and three all have Zac Efron as the main character. Even though those were some of the BEST movies he has ever starred in, Zac has appeared in many other movies as well. Some of the movies he has played in are kid friendly, those would be by Disney. All his other ones would be considered for an older audience.
Zac was raised by his mother Starla, and his father David. Born on October 18th, 1987, made him Starla and Davids first child. Having only two children in his family he is the oldest, having a younger brother Dylan. As early as the age 11, Zac was encouraged to pursue acting. Today he is known as a singer, and an actor. Although, he is more of an actor if anything.  Zac played in many television series as guest roles. His first ever appearance on television was a short-lived series called Firefly.
After coming on shows as guests, in 2005 he landed a lead role in The Derby Stallion. After being noticed again, he landed a lead role as Troy Bolton in High School Musical in 2006. Although,  it was intended to be a low budget film. Then later on he played in the second movie of High School Musical, which became the most watched event in cable television history in 2007. Although Zac wanted to move on to more sophisticated roles, he did play in High School Musical Three (senior year) which was the last to the trilogy.
 Since he was dedicated to playing mature roles he starred in The Lucky One, in 2012.  After that movie he then starred in The Paperboy, and then other movies in that same year. Zac's most recent film is Neighbors, that came out this year. Still young you should expect to see him on many more movies in the future. Having many adoring fans still to this day, you can see clothing of Zac Efron, and even dolls! Growing up Zac was raised by an average family, and lived in a middle class surrounding. Zac also had no experience in acting and auditioned in amateur plays. This goes to show that you can do anything you put your mind to, all you need to have is confidence, becoming famous wasn't easy for Zac, he had to put long hours, and work into what he does best!

Cameron Alexander Dallas

This day in age many kids have access to Ipods, Iphones, and Ipads as well as many other devices. There are all different kinds of apps that you can purchase/download in the app store.  One in general I'm going to focus on, is Vine. Vine is an app where you can post roughly six second videos. Most of the videos are humorous rather than informative. One person has made his career from Vine. This person goes by the name of Cameron Dallas, born on September 8th, 1994. He started off as an ordinary kid making videos to entertain others. Soon his content spread rapidly through all different kinds of social medias. He is currently one of the top ten users on Vine with over 5.7 million followers, and his number continues to grow daily. One of his biggest fans is...yours truly.

Aside from Vine Cameron also does videos on YouTube. Most of his YouTube videos are of him doing wacky things, but sometimes he is actually serious! Growing up, Cameron was raised by his mother Gina, and has one older sister named Sierra. Sierra is also involved in different kinds of social medias as well as Cameron. Gina was always there for him, but he didn't have a father growing up. Although he does stay in contact with his father. Even though Cameron didn't have a father to be there for him, he always keeps a smile on his face, and tries to stay optimistic!

Even as an internet celebrity, viner, and youtuber Cameron does have other things he's involved in as well. One that comes to mind right away is Magcon. Basically it's a group of internet celebrities/viners that travel across the country so that their fans can meet them. Fame does have its downfalls. Many people around the world dislike Cameron. He has many hate comments that are always posted in the comments on the videos or pictures he posts. It seems like he isn't bothered by it, but would it bother you?  Genuinely some of us get offended by the rude comments others post, but making jokes about the rude comments are one way Cameron can take it.

Many celebrities are found by social medias, in this case Cameron was found on Vine. All he wants to do is live his dream, and continue doing what he is most passionate about. He started off as just making videos on Youtube, then he moved on to Vine. Cameron is what most kids dream of being. He started from the bottom then worked his way up to try to be better than what he was before.
