Demi's real father, Charles Harmon, left her mother in 1962 before Demi was born, after a two-month marriage. Virginia married Danny Guynes, a newspaper ad salesman, who frequently changed jobs and caused the family to move over 30 times. Demi grew up dealing with poverty, alcoholism, domestic abuse, divorce, and her stepfather's suicide when she was 18.

With influence from Nastassja Kinski, her neighbor in the same building, she decided to become an actress while in high school. When Demi was 16, she quit school to work at a debt collection agency and to do some modeling in Europe. At age 18, she married the English rock musician, Freddy Moore. This marriage lasted for four years.

In 1982, she became a regular actress on the TV show General Hospital. In the 1985 movie, St. Elmo's Fire, in order to play coke addict, Jules, she had to sign a contract stipulating that she would stop her own alcohol and drug abuse, an agreement that caused her to turn her life around. For the next three years, she struggled with drug and alcohol problems until director Joel Schumacher threatened to fire her from the set of St. Elmo's Fire. After drug rehabiliation for two weeks, she returned to work, and continued to stay sober.

Demi met Bruce Willis in August 1987 after ending a three-year engagement to Emilio Estevez. Bruce and Demi were married on November 21, 1987 by singer, Little Richard. She has formed her own production companies, Rufglen and then Moving Pictures (in partnership with Suzanne and Jennifer Todd.)

With determination and a skill for publicity stunts, she has achieved fame and fortune. Since the huge successes of Ghost in 1990, Indecent Proposal in 1993, Disclosure in 1994, The Juror in 1995, and Striptease in 1996, she is one of Hollywood's most sought-after and expensive actresses. Her current asking price is $12.5 million per film.
