Celebrity X No. 9

It`s been raining the whole day here at my place, and the weather is generally terrible, with lot of southern winds. Maybe it`s good for surfing, but most of people are freaking out because of that. And world news are not making things easier at all. I hope that this fast spreading swine flu is not going to appear in your area, but lot of people are concerned and stressed out because of cases in their neighborhood.

To forget about all problems just for few minutes and to cheer you up a little bit, I decided to publish maybe the funniest picture from my whole collection which contains various pictures of celebrities when they were young. I suppose it is hard to stop laughing when you see this lovely baby on the picture. Well, if you didn`t know, this little baby, which was born in Englewood (New Yersey) in 1954, is one of the major future Hollywood stars. His father was a second-generation Italian American and his mother was Irish American. He was the youngest of six children in family, so it is sure that he had to fight for himself throughout the childhood. If you have older brothers, you`ll know what am I talking about. He has impressive list of roles in his cereer, but probably one of the most famous is that one from Quentin Tarantino`s megahit Pulp Fiction. I think that you should have enough hints to try to guess who could it be.

Celebrity X No. 8

I am constantly trying to improve CelebritiesTAN to become your favorite site where you`ll return each day and find out exciting facts about your favorite celebrities. As you can see for yourself, lot of changes happened in last few weeks, like completely new look and feel of the site. I also added new features like Celebrity X quiz, in the menu on the right side, and new interesting categories are coming soon. I hope that you also share my curiosity about their childhood and their way to success. Given that I prefer some celebrities more than others, I would like to hear about your interests so I can write more about them.

I would appreciate your feedback, because the most important thing for me is to improve your experience as my visitors. Feel free to email me and post you requests. I promise to do my best to fulfill them.

Today I prepared Celebrity X issue which is really interesting, and I can bet that you`ll never find out who it is from just looking at the picture. The kid on the picture looks so hilarious that you could think that it’s some famous country star`s son, or something like that. But when you look at the answer, you`ll surprise how famous this celebrity is today. I’ll give you some clues: He was born on January 31, 1981 in Memphis, Tennessee. He became one of the most famous pop singers today, and he sold his first two solo albums in over 18 million copies worldwide. He came to fame as a lead singer in one of the most popular 90`s boy band. Few years ago he was the first victim of Ashton Kutcher’s Punk’d show, where he was duped into thinking his home was repossessed for back taxes. It was so funny that I watched Punk`d regularly since that scene which became one of most known scenes and a real classic of this great show.

But today everything should be fine and article is finally in front of you. Maybe this one is going to be a little bit harder to guess, but it is really fun when you find out who it is. Who could ever say that this little boy on the left is going to become famous Hollywood actor, which will be ranked by Forbes magazine as the world’s most powerful celebrity in 2006?

Maybe the most famous movie where he acted is that one in which he played the role of a heroic naval pilot. Telling you the name of the movie should be too much, so try your best and guess who is it now.

Little boy on the picture is one of the most celebrated and successful football athletes of his era. He was born on May 2, 1975 in Leytonstone, England.

One of the country’s most celebrated teams, however, took an interest in him, and our today celebrity entered the legendary Manchester United club organization as a 14 year old recruit. In the time when other kids are occupied making problems in high school, this was his biggest step to success, and at this point all doors were opened to this young man. It should be enough info for you now to guess who it could be, so continue reading and find it out.

Finally, here is our new celebrity in Celebrity X category! I was working on new Celebrities Then And Now feature, so it took a while. Today featured celebrity is pretty easy to guess, I think, because of its characteristic shape of face, which is recognizable even on this photo which is taken at very young age.

Because of that, I am not going to reveal too much facts about him. Lets just say that he is born in 1978. in Iowa, and today is really famous actor. I`ll rather say you few interesting facts from his younger age that will not help you to guess who it is. This young man was back in 1997 a biochemical engineering student at the University of Iowa, working at General Mills sweeping Cheerio dust from the floor in Cedar Rapids, Iowa for just $12 an hour, but today he is having million dollar movie offers.

He grew up in rural Homestead, Iowa, graduating from Clear Creek-Amana High School in Tiffin, Iowa, and he also has a fraternal twin brother, Michael, and a sister, Tausha. Try to guess who it is and then read full article to check your answer.
