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.
