Demi Moore, who was born Demi Gene Guynes, made her film debut with a supporting role in the 1981 drama "Choices." She was 18 when she filmed the role.
Her first major role came in the 1982 3-D sci-fi/horror movie "Parasite," which became a minor hit on the drive-in circuit, making $7 million. She also met her first husband, musician Freddie Moore, while shooting the movie.
But it was her role as Jackie Templeton on the soap opera "General Hospital" from 1982 to 1983 that first made her well known.
Moore's career started to take off in the 1980s, when she landed roles in "Brat Pack" films like "St. Elmo's Fire" and ...
... "About Last Night" and ...
... "One Crazy Summer."
She also had a starring role in the 1988 apocalyptic drama "The Seventh Sign."
But it was her role in 1990's "Ghost" that really launched her career as a movie star.
She cemented her status with movies like "A Few Good Men."

Moore generated some controversy with the 1996 comedy "Striptease," thanks to nude scenes and a risque poster that had her posing nude with her arms and legs strategically placed to block parts of her body. A tamer version of a poster for the movie is seen here.

... 1997's "G.I. Jane," which saw Moore play a senator who enrolls to receive Navy SEAL training. Moore's shaved head proved much more memorable than the film ended up being.
