Early lifeEdit
Demi Moore was born Demi Gene GuynesTemplate:Refn on November 11, 1962, in Roswell, New Mexico.

CareerEdit
Beginnings and breakthrough (1980–1989)Edit
Moore co-wrote three songs with Freddy Moore and appeared in the music video for their selection It's Not a Rumor, performed by his band, the Nu-Kats. She continues to receive royalty checks from her songwriting work (1980–1981).<ref name="DEMI MOORE (Songwriter) BIO"/>
Moore appeared on the cover of the January 1981 issue of the adult magazine Oui,<ref name="ew-mannes">Template:Cite magazine</ref> taken from a photo session in which she had posed nude.<ref name="spy">Template:Cite news</ref> In a 1988 interview, Moore said she "only posed for the cover of Oui —I was 16; I told them I was 18." Interviewer Alan Carter said, "However, some peekaboo shots did appear inside. And later, nude shots of her turned up in Celebrity Sleuth —photos that she once said 'were for a European fashion magazine'."<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> In 1990, she told another interviewer, "I was 17 years old. I was underage. It was just the cover."<ref>Template:Cite magazine</ref>
Moore made her film debut as the protagonist's girlfriend in Choices (1981), a sports drama directed by Silvio Narizzano.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> It did not garner much attention until after Moore became a household name, with home video releases heavily hyping up her appearance.<ref>Jacket copy, Choices, Gemstone Entertainment, 1992</ref> Her second feature was the 3-D sci-fi horror Parasite (1982), for which director Charles Band had instructed casting director Johanna Ray to "find me the next Karen Allen".<ref name="ew-mannes" /> It proved to be a minor hit on the drive-in circuit, ultimately grossing Template:USD.<ref name="Yahoo">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web
}}</ref> Moore had already joined the cast of the ABC soap opera General Hospital several months before the film's release, playing the role of investigative reporter Jackie Templeton through 1983. During her tenure on the series, she made an uncredited cameo appearance in the 1982 spoof Young Doctors in Love.
Moore's film career took off in 1984 following her appearance as the teenage daughter of a businessman (played by Michael Caine) in the sex comedy Blame It on Rio.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> In No Small Affair (1984), she played the love interest of an amateur photographer, opposite Jon Cryer.

Having lobbied for her casting,<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> the director urged her to go to rehab before shooting and hired a full-time sober companion during production.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The film received negative reviews, but was a box office success and brought her widespread recognition.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>Template:Cite news</ref> Because of her association with that film, she was often listed as part of the Brat Pack, a label she felt was "demeaning".<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>
Moore progressed to more serious material with the romantic dramedy About Last Night... (1986), in which she played one half of a Chicago couple, alongside Rob Lowe. It marked a positive turning point in her career,<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> as Moore noted that, following its release, she began seeing better scripts.<ref name="Demi Moore Says She's Ready to Be a Mom">Template:Cite news</ref> Film critic Roger Ebert gave the film four out of four stars and praised her performance, writing, "There isn't a romantic note she isn't required to play in this movie, and she plays them all flawlessly."<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> The success of About Last Night... was unrivaled by Moore's other two 1986 releases, One Crazy Summer and Wisdom, the last youth-oriented films in which she would star.<ref name="Yahoo"/>
Moore made her professional stage debut in an off-Broadway production of The Early Girl, which ran at the Circle Repertory Company in fall 1986.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> Mel Gussow of The New York Times deemed it a "striking debut" and observed that she "has exactly the right combination of naivete and know-how, and[…] is unabashed about the demands of the performance."<ref>Template:Cite newspaper</ref> In 1988, Moore starred as a prophecy-bearing mother in the apocalyptic drama The Seventh Sign —her first outing as a solo film star—<ref name="Demi Moore Says She's Ready to Be a Mom"/> and in 1989, she played the quick-witted local laundress and part-time prostitute in Neil Jordan's Depression-era allegory We're No Angels, opposite Robert De Niro and Sean Penn.
Established career (1990–1997)Edit
Moore's most successful film to date is the supernatural romantic melodrama Ghost, which grossed over Template:USD at the box office and was the highest-grossing film of 1990,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> as well as the most rented videocassette of 1991.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> She played a young woman in jeopardy to be protected by the ghost of her murdered boyfriend through the help of a reluctant psychic. The love scene between Moore and Patrick Swayze that starts in front of a potter's wheel to the sound of "Unchained Melody" has become an iconic moment in cinema history.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Ghost was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture, while Moore's performance earned her a Golden Globe nomination and the Saturn Award for Best Actress.<ref name="Demi Moore - Awards">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> She started fashion trends with her uncharacteristically gamine look, and legions of women emulated the short haircut she sported throughout the film.<ref name="Yahoo"/><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> At one point, Ghost and Die Hard 2, starring Moore's then-husband Bruce Willis, would occupy the number one and number two spots at the box office, a feat that would not be accomplished again for a married Hollywood couple until 2024.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref><ref>Template:Cite news</ref>
In 1991, Moore starred as a lawyer in the horror comedy Nothing but Trouble, a murder suspect in the mystery thriller Mortal Thoughts, and a clairvoyant woman in the romantic comedy The Butcher's Wife. Mortal Thoughts, which co-starred Willis, was a "passion project" for Moore, who wanted a more challenging role following the success of Ghost and was particularly drawn to her character's New Jersey dialect.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> After the original director was fired and replaced by Alan Rudolph, she took it upon herself to mitigate the film's financial constraints, offering to pay overtime for the shooting.<ref>Template:Cite magazine</ref>
Moore received a Template:USD fee to star in The Butcher's Wife,<ref name="VF-aug1991-p144" /> but later regretted making the film. It was noted that, during production, she was "catered to by an assistant, a dialogue coach, a masseuse, a psychic consultant, [her daughter]'s nanny, and a bodyguard […]—in addition to the standard-issue hairdresser, makeup person, and stand-in. She arrived for each morning's shoot in a limo and insisted on flying between locations by private plane."<ref name="VF-aug1991-p144" /> Screenwriter Ezra Litwak stated: "Demi is very much a movie star. Everything revolves around that fact. She knows what she wants and how to get it."<ref name="VF-aug1991-p144" /> The film was a critical and commercial failure,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> but Roger Ebert embraced her performance, describing it as "warm and cuddly."<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>
Moore's next roles —a lieutenant commander in Rob Reiner's A Few Good Men (1992), a morally tested wife in Adrian Lyne's Indecent Proposal (1993), and a sexually charged employer in Barry Levinson's Disclosure (1994)— raised her demand among studios.<ref name="ewmoore">Template:Cite magazine</ref> The three aforementioned films opened atop the box office and were blockbuster hits.<ref name="Demi Moore Movie Box Office Results">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Producer Martin Shafer considered her to be "every bit as valuable as [her male counterparts]" and called her "the biggest female star in the world."<ref name="ewmoore" />
With her A-list status, some of Moore's film choices were the subject of widespread scrutiny.<ref name="ewmoore" /> Her portrayal of Hester Prynne in The Scarlet Letter (1995), a "freely adapted" version of the historical romance novel by Nathaniel Hawthorne, was met with harsh disapproval.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> James Berardinelli found her to be "out of her depth" and noted that her "insufficient" range resulted in a "weak" performance.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> She played an author with commitment issues in the coming-of-age drama Now and Then (1995), which she described as "more than just a film […] it was an adventure".<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Now and Then did not score with critics but found box office success and cult following.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>
Moore became the world's highest-paid actress when she was paid a record-breaking salary of Template:USD to star as a FBI secretary-turned-stripper in Striptease (1996).<ref name="highest-paid">Template:Cite news</ref><ref>Template:Cite news</ref><ref>Template:Cite magazine</ref> Her own daughter Rumer Willis, who was 7 years old when the film was released, played her character's daughter. Despite grossing a respectable Template:USD worldwide,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Striptease was heavily disliked.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Brian D. Johnson of Maclean's was critical of Moore's acting and described the film as a "tacky" display of her vanity.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> She starred as a single mother intimidated by a mobster in the thriller The Juror (1996), which did not connect with critics nor audiences.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> For both Striptease and The Juror, she received the Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Actress.<ref name="Schwartz2"/>
Moore produced and starred in HBO's If These Walls Could Talk (1996), a three-part anthology about abortion alongside Sissy Spacek and Cher. Its screenwriter, Nancy Savoca, directed two segments, including one in which Moore played a widowed nurse in the early 1950s seeking a back-alley abortion. If These Walls Could Talk became HBO's highest-rated original film to date, drawing 6.9 million viewers.<ref>Template:Cite magazine</ref><ref>Template:Cite news</ref> For the film, Moore received Golden Globe nominations for Best Actress – Miniseries or Television Film and Best Miniseries or Motion Picture Made for Television,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> as well as a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Television Movie.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> In 1996, she provided the voice of Esmeralda in The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and Dallas Grimes in Beavis and Butt-Head Do America, both of which were the highest-grossing animated films that year.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
Moore portrayed the first woman to undergo training in the Navy SEALs in Ridley Scott's G.I. Jane (1997). For her role, she shaved her head and went through a rigorous two-week military training.<ref name="Demijane">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The film received mixed reviews and earned her another Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Actress,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> but her performance was largely praised by critics.<ref name="Out of Sight">Template:Cite news</ref> Budgeted at Template:USD,<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> it was a moderate commercial success, grossing Template:USD worldwide.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Striptease and G.I. Jane were considered to have contributed to a professional downturn,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> on which she later remarked: "With Striptease, it was as if I had betrayed women, and with G.I. Jane, it was as if I had betrayed men."<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Nevertheless, she has described G.I. Jane as one of her proudest professional achievements.<ref name="Demijane"/> In 1997, she played an ultrapious Jewish convert psychiatrist in Woody Allen's Deconstructing Harry,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> and an emotionally estranged wife in Mark Pellington's short film Destination Anywhere.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
Hiatus and sporadic roles (1998–2007)Edit
After G.I. Jane, Moore retreated from the spotlight and moved to Hailey, Idaho, on a full-time basis to devote herself to raising her three daughters.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> She was off-screen for three years before re-emerging in the arthouse psychological drama Passion of Mind (2000), the first English-language film from Belgian director Alain Berliner. Her performance as a woman with dissociative identity disorder was favourably reviewed,<ref>Template:Cite news</ref><ref name="deseretnews">Template:Cite news</ref> but the film was deemed "naggingly slow" by some critics and failed to find an audience.<ref name="deseretnews" /> She felt that Passion of Mind "didn't get the best of [her]" due to the death of her mother and her divorce from Willis.<ref name="dmguar">Template:Cite news</ref> She then resumed her self-imposed career hiatus and continued to turn down film offers.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> Producer Irwin Winkler said in 2001, "I had a project about a year and a half ago, and we made an inquiry about her —a real good commercial picture. She wasn't interested."<ref name="Out of Sight" />
Moore returned to the screen, playing a villain, in Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle (2003),<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> opposite Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore, and Lucy Liu. Her role was specifically written for her and proved, according to Barrymore, to have "upstaged" the film's heroines.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> A scene, in particular, featuring her in a swimsuit, attracted "very heightened" media attention.<ref name="dmca">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> She found herself intimidated by the response, which she said made her question her place in the industry.<ref name="dmca" /> Peter Travers of Rolling Stone remarked: "It's a relief when Demi Moore shows up as [a] fallen angel ... Moore, 40, looks great in a bikini and doesn't even try to act. Her unsmiling sexiness cuts through the gigglefest as the angels fight, kick, dance and motocross like Indiana Jones clones on estrogen."<ref>Template:Cite magazine</ref> A commercial success, Full Throttle made Template:USD worldwide,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> but it was followed by yet another three-year absence from the screen. In the interim, she signed on as the face of Versace and Helena Rubinstein.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>Template:Cite magazine</ref>
After a leading role as a grieving novelist in the mystery thriller Half Light (2006), Moore reunited with Emilio Estevez for his drama Bobby (2006), about the hours leading up to the Robert F. Kennedy assassination, in which she portrayed an alcoholic singer whose career is on the downswing. As a member of the ensemble cast, she was nominated for the Screen Actors Guild Award for Best Cast in a Motion Picture and won the Hollywood Film Festival Award for Best Ensemble Cast.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
Moore reunited with Blame It on Rio co-star Michael Caine for the British heist drama Flawless (2007),<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> which saw her portray an American executive helping to steal a handful of diamonds from the London Diamond Corporation during the 1960s. A writer for Miami Herald asserted: "The inspired pairing of Demi Moore and Michael Caine as a pair of thieves in the diamond-heist semi-caper movie Flawless goes a long way toward overcoming the film's slack, leisurely pacing."<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> She appeared as a driven police officer investigating a serial killer in the psychological thriller Mr. Brooks (2007). Critic Peter Travers felt that her role "deserved better than being saddled with an absurd back story as an heiress with a fortune-hunting husband."<ref>Template:Cite magazine</ref> Mr. Brooks was profitable, grossing Template:USD worldwide.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
Independent films and varied ventures (2008–2023)Edit
Moore made her directorial debut with the coming-of-age short film Streak (2008), which starred her daughter Rumer and screened at the Nashville Film Festival.<ref> {{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> In 2009, Moore played a daughter helping her father deal with age-related health problems in the dramedy Happy Tears, as well as a stealth marketer in the comedy The Joneses. The latter film was largely highlighted, with critics concluding that it "benefits from its timely satire of consumer culture" as well as a "strong" performance from Moore.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> That year, she acted in the 9th edition of 24 Hour Plays on Broadway at the American Airlines Theatre.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> In Bunraku (2010), a film Moore described as a "big action adventure,"<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> she starred as a courtesan and a femme fatale with a secret past.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>
Moore portrayed a chief risk management officer at a large Wall Street investment bank during the initial stages of the 2008 financial crisis in the corporate drama Margin Call (2011), in which she was part of an ensemble cast that included Kevin Spacey, Simon Baker, and Paul Bettany.<ref name="Dash">Template:Cite news</ref><ref>Template:Cite news</ref> The film was favourably received,<ref>Template:Cite magazine</ref> and earned the cast nominations for Best Ensemble from the Gotham Awards, the Phoenix Film Critics Society and the Central Ohio Film Critics Association.<ref>Template:Cite magazine</ref> She was nominated for a Directors Guild of America Award in the category of Outstanding Directing – Miniseries or TV Film for her work as a director in a segment of the Lifetime anthology film Five (2011).<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
During this period, Moore's career was noted to have shifted into "smaller movies and smaller roles".<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> She played a "brash and overtly sexual second wife" in the black comedy Another Happy Day (2011),<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> mothers in the coming-of-age films LOL (2012)<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> and Very Good Girls (2013),<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> an old flame of a quick-draw killer in the Western drama Forsaken (2015), the daughter of a retired high school teacher in the road comedy Wild Oats (2016),<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> and the neglected wife of an indicted businessman in the drama Blind (2017). David Fear of Rolling Stone described her as "someone who, despite the fact that she still graces screens […], makes you feel as if they’ve gone into self-exile in order to survive."<ref>Template:Cite magazine</ref>
Between 2017 and 2018, Moore had a recurring arc as a mysterious take-charge nurse on Empire.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The comedy Rough Night (2017) featured her as one half of a swinger couple seducing a member of a bachelorette party.

Vanity Fair coversEdit
Template:See also In August 1991, Moore appeared nude on the cover of Vanity Fair under the title More Demi Moore. Annie Leibovitz shot the picture while Moore was seven months pregnant with her second child, Scout LaRue Willis, intending to portray "anti-Hollywood, anti-glitz" attitude.<ref>Anderson, Susan Heller. "Chronicle" Template:Webarchive. The New York Times. July 11, 1991. Retrieved March 28, 2008.</ref> The cover drew significant attention and was widely discussed in the media.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The frankness of Leibovitz's portrayal of a pregnant sex symbol led to divided opinions, ranging from suggestions of sexual objectification to celebrations of the photograph as a symbol of empowerment.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
The photograph was subject to numerous parodies, including the Spy Magazine version, which placed Moore's then-husband Bruce Willis's head on the body of a male model with a false belly. In Leibovitz v. Paramount Pictures Corp., Leibovitz sued over one parody featuring Leslie Nielsen, made to promote the 1994 film [[Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult|Naked Gun Template:Frac: The Final Insult]]. In the parody, the model's body was attached to what is described as "the guilty and smirking face" of Nielsen. The teaser said "Due this March."<ref name="parody">Template:Cite news</ref> The case was dismissed in 1996 because the parody relied "for its comic effect on the contrast between the original."<ref name="parody"/> In November 2009, the Moroccan magazine Femmes du Maroc emulated the pose with Moroccan news reporter Nadia Larguet, causing controversy in the majority-Muslim nation.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
