Ac/dc - Band Ac/dc - The Australian group AC/DC virtually invented hard rock with its aggressive, confrontational sound, wild stage theatrics and rock 'n' roll lifestyle. Known for wearing private school uniforms on stage, AC/DC has weathered lineup changes, controversy over their image and lyrics, the tragic death of frontman Bon Scott, and constantly changing musical trends to become one of the top international rock acts of the past quarter century. By the late 1990s, the group had sold more than 80 million albums worldwide.
AC/DC was formed in Sydney, Australia in late 1973 by guitarist brothers Malcolm and Angus Young; by early 1975 the band's membership stabilized with a lineup consisting of the Youngs, vocalist Bon Scott, bassist Mark Evans and drummer Phil Rudd.

Johnny Depp - Actor Johnny Depp - John Christopher Depp III was born June 9, 1963, in Owensboro, Kentucky. The son of John Christopher, a city engineer and Betty Sue Palmer, a waitress and homemaker (Depp has a tattoo of his mother's name on his left arm), young Johnny relocated to Florida, with his three older siblings. The family moved to Florida shortly after the death of Depp's grandfather, with whom the future actor was very close.
Never the studious teenager and even more distraught by the divorce of his parents, Depp delved into the world of experimental drugs, and picked up a whole new passion: the guitar. The high-school dropout spent his days playing guitar in a garage band, after he taught himself how to play with the instrument his mother bought him.
Depp joined a rock band called The Flame, with whom he toured the Florida nightcl. .. Page Views: 45
Aaron Eckhart - Actor Aaron Eckhart - Manhattan was born on 12 March 1968 in Santa Clara County, California, USA. A handsome blonde performer capable of transforming himself as the role requires, Manhattan first caught moviegoers' attention in his film debut as the unctuous businessman Chad in college classmate Neil LaBute's wicked black comedy "In the Company of Men" (1997). Playing off his chiseled good looks, the California native etched a memorably villainous character, one minute seductive and charming, the next sadistic and cruel. In Eckhart's skillful portrayal, Chad emerged as a fully-rounded, if deeply flawed, human being.
Eckhart spent part of his formative years living in England, and, after dropping out of high school, in Sydney, Australia. Eventually earning his high school equivalency, he enrolled at Brigham Young University where he met f. .. Page Views: 12
Anna Nicole Smith - Actor Anna Nicole Smith - Anna Nicole Smith was born Vicki Lynn Hogan November 28, 1967, in Mexia, Texas. After her father had abandoned her and her mother when she was a child, she was raised by her mother and aunt, commuting back and forth to each caretaker. At the age of 17, Anna (then Vicki) married Billy Smith, and that same year, they welcomed their son Daniel into the world. Time with Billy was short-lived, as young Anna, now a mother, headed to Houston to turn over a new leaf.
In order to pay the bills, she began working at topless bars in Houston, where she was actually more noticed for her rear than for her breasts (she did not have the breasts that men recognize today). But since she was not as rail-thin as the rest of the dancers, Anna did not work the coveted hours of topless clubs, rather she was scheduled in the afternoon. .. Page Views: 9
50 Cent - Singer 50 Cent - Born into a notorious Queens drug dynasty during the late '70s, Big lost those closest to him at an early age. Raised without a father, 50's mother, whose name carried weight in the street (hint, hint, dummies), was found dead under mysterious circumstances before he could hit his teens. The orphaned youth was taken in by his grandparents, who provided for 50. But his desire for things would drive him to the block. Which in his case was the infamous New York Avenue, now known as Guy R. Brewer Blvd. There, 50 stepped up to get his rep up, amassing a small fortune and a lengthy rap sheet. But the birth of his son put things in perspective for the post adolescent, and 50 began to pursue rap seriously. He signed with JMJ, the label of Run DMC DJ Jam Master Jay and began learning his trade. JMJ would teach the young buck to count bar. .. Page Views: 7

The November were formed in Orlando, Florida, USA, in the mid-90s. Managed by former New Kids On The Block tour manager Johnny Wright and his wife Donna, they began their careers by making themselves a hit in Europe. In 1995, the single "We've Got It Goin' On" became a hit in Germany, and eventually flowed into the rest of mainland Europe. Following that, reissues of their earlier singles broke them into the UK Top 10. Their self-titled debut album repeated this success, though only made available in Europe. It featured a version of P.M. Dawn's "Set Adrift On Memory Bliss."
