Moore began her career as a model and joined the cast of the soap operaGeneral Hospital in 1981.[6] After departing the show in 1983, she rose to prominence as a member of theBrat Pack, with roles in the filmsBlame It on Rio (1984),St. Elmo's Fire (1985), andAbout Last Night... (1986). She emerged a star with her portrayal of a grieving girlfriend in the romance filmGhost (1990), had further box office success withA Few Good Men (1992),Indecent Proposal (1993), andDisclosure (1994), and received a then-unprecedented$12.5 million to star inStriptease (1996). Her output decreased significantly afterThe Scarlet Letter (1995),The Juror (1996), andG.I. Jane (1997) fell below commercial expectations.[7][8]
Demi Moore was born Demi Gene Guynes[n 1] on November 11, 1962, inRoswell, New Mexico. Her biological father,Air Force airman Charles Foster Harmon Sr.,[13] deserted her then-18-year-old mother, Virginia (née King),[14] after a two-month marriage before Moore's birth.[15] Charles came fromLanett, Alabama, and Virginia was born inRichmond, California but had grown up in Roswell.[16] Moore's maternal grandmother was raised on a farm inElida, New Mexico.[16] Moore has deep roots in theSouth Central andSouthern United States, particularly Oklahoma, Arkansas and Georgia. When Moore was three months old, her mother married Dan Guynes, a newspaper advertising salesman who frequently changed jobs; as a result, the family moved many times.[17] In 1967 they had Moore's half-brother Morgan.[18] Moore said in 1991, "My dad is Dan Guynes. He raised me. There is a man who would be considered my biological father who I don't really have a relationship with."[15] Moore has half-siblings from Charlie Harmon's other marriages, but she does not keep in touch with them either.[19]
Moore's stepfather Dan Guynes married and divorced Virginia twice.[20] On October 20, 1980, a year after their second divorce from each other, Guynes committed suicide.[15][21] Her biological father Harmon died in 1997 from liver cancer inBrazoria, Texas.[22][23] Moore's mother had a long arrest record which included drunk driving and arson.[24] Moore broke off contact with her mother in 1989, when she walked away halfway through a rehab stay Moore had financed at theHazelden Foundation in Minnesota.[25] Virginia Guynes posed nude for the magazineHigh Society in 1993,[26] where she spoofed Moore'sVanity Fair pregnancy and bodypaint covers and parodied her clay scene fromGhost. Moore and Guynes reconciled shortly before Guynes died of a brain tumor on July 2, 1998.[27]
Moore spent her early childhood in Roswell, and later,Canonsburg, Pennsylvania.[28] Bob Gardner, a photographer for theMonongahela Daily Herald when Dan Guynes was head of advertising, recalled that Moore "looked malnourished and not so much abused as neglected. That haunting look as a child made me feel uneasy."[29] She suffered fromstrabismus, which was corrected by two operations, as well as kidney dysfunction.[17] Moore learned that Guynes was not her real father at age 13, when she discovered a marriage certificate and inquired about the circumstances since she "saw my parents were married in February 1963. I was born in '62."[15]
At age 14, Moore returned to her hometown of Roswell and lived with her grandmother for six months before relocating to Washington state, where her recently separated mother was residing near Seattle.[30] Several months later, the family moved again toWest Hollywood, California, where Moore's mother took a job working for a magazine distribution company.[15] Moore attendedFairfax High School there.[15] In 2019, she stated she was raped at 15 by landlord Basil Doumas, then 49.[31] Doumas claimed he had paid Moore's mother to get access to Moore to rape her, although Moore said it is unclear if this were true.[32][33]
In November 1978, Moore moved in with 28-year-old guitarist Tom Dunston, quitting high school in her junior year to work as a receptionist at20th Century Fox—a job she secured through Dunston's mother, who was an executive assistant to producerDouglas S. Cramer.[16][34] She signed with theElite Modeling Agency, then enrolled in acting classes after being inspired by her next-door neighbor, 17-year-old German starletNastassja Kinski.[35][36] Moore's first and second roles as a professional actress were guest spots on the TV showsW.E.B. andKaz (though neither is listed in her IMDb filmography).[37][38][39][40][41] In August 1979, three months before her 17th birthday,[42] Moore met and married[36] musicianFreddy Moore, at the time leader of the bandBoy, at the Los Angeles nightclubThe Troubadour.[43] He obtained a divorce in late 1980 and married Demi six weeks later.[43]
Moore co-wrote three songs with Freddy Moore and appeared in the music video for their selectionIt's Not a Rumor, performed by his band,the Nu-Kats. She continues to receive royalty checks from her songwriting work (1980–1981).[42]
Moore appeared on the cover of the January 1981 issue of the adult magazineOui,[44] taken from a photo session in which she had posed nude.[45] In a 1988 interview, Moore said she "only posed for the cover ofOui—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 inCelebrity Sleuth—photos that she once said 'were for a European fashion magazine'."[46] In 1990, she told another interviewer, "I was 17 years old. I was underage. It was just the cover."[47]
Moore made her film debut as the protagonist's girlfriend inChoices (1981), a sports drama directed bySilvio Narizzano.[48] It did not garner much attention until after Moore became a household name, with home video releases heavily hyping up her appearance.[49] Her second feature was the3-D sci-fi horrorParasite (1982), for which directorCharles Band had instructed casting director Johanna Ray to "find me the nextKaren Allen".[44] It proved to be a minor hit on thedrive-in circuit, ultimately grossing$7 million.[50] Moore had already joined the cast of theABC soap operaGeneral 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 spoofYoung Doctors in Love.
Moore's film career took off in 1984 following her appearance in the sex comedyBlame It on Rio.[51] InNo Small Affair (1984), she played the love interest of an amateur photographer, oppositeJon Cryer. Her commercial breakthrough came with her role as an uninhibited banker inJoel Schumacher'syuppie dramaSt. Elmo's Fire (1985), which received negative reviews, but was a box office success and brought her widespread recognition.[52][53] Because of her association with that film, she was often listed as part of theBrat Pack, a label she felt was "demeaning".[54]
Moore progressed to more serious material with the romantic dramedyAbout Last Night... (1986), in which she played one half of a Chicago couple, alongsideRob Lowe. It marked a positive turning point in her career,[55] as Moore noted that, following its release, she began seeing better scripts.[56] Film criticRoger 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."[57] The success ofAbout Last Night... was unrivaled by Moore's other two 1986 releases,One Crazy Summer andWisdom, the last youth-oriented films in which she would star.[50]
Moore made her professional stage debut in anoff-Broadway production ofThe Early Girl, which ran at theCircle Repertory Company in fall 1986.[58] In 1988, Moore starred as a prophecy-bearing mother in the apocalyptic dramaThe Seventh Sign—her first outing as a solo film star—[56] and in 1989, she played the quick-witted local laundress and part time prostitute inNeil Jordan'sDepression-era allegoryWe're No Angels, oppositeRobert De Niro.
Moore's most successful film to date is the supernatural romantic melodramaGhost, which grossed over$505 million at the box office and was the highest-grossing film of 1990,[59] as well as the most rented videocassette of 1991.[60] 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 andPatrick Swayze that starts in front of apotter's wheel to the sound of "Unchained Melody" has become an iconic moment in cinema history.[61]Ghost was nominated for theAcademy Award for Best Picture, while Moore's performance earned her aGolden Globe nomination and theSaturn Award for Best Actress.[62] She started fashion trends with her uncharacteristicallygamine look, and legions of women emulated the short haircut she sported throughout the film.[50][63] At one point,Ghost andDie Hard 2, starring Moore's then-husbandBruce 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.[64][65]
In 1991, Moore starred as a lawyer in the horror comedyNothing but Trouble, a murder suspect in the mystery thrillerMortal Thoughts, and a clairvoyant woman in the romantic comedyThe Butcher's Wife.Mortal Thoughts, which co-starred Willis, was a "passion project" for Moore, who wanted a more challenging role following the success ofGhost. She took it upon herself to get the production finished after the original director was fired and replaced byAlan Rudolph.[66] She only acted inThe Butcher's Wife to increase her fee but later regretted making the film. Roger Ebert's review, nevertheless, described her performance in it as "warm and cuddly."[67]
Moore maintained herA-list status with her leading roles as a lieutenant commander inRob Reiner'sA Few Good Men (1992), a morally tested wife inAdrian Lyne'sIndecent Proposal (1993), and a sexually charged employer inBarry Levinson'sDisclosure (1994). The three aforementioned films opened atop the box office and were blockbuster hits.[68] In 1995, Martin Shafer, one of the founders ofCastle Rock Entertainment, considered Moore to be "every bit as valuable as [her male counterparts]" and called her "the biggest female star in the world."[69]
Moore's next few starring vehicles were released to fluctuated critical or commercial responses. She played an author with commitment issues in the coming-of-age dramaNow and Then (1995), a film that found box office success andcult following despite a negative critical reception. Her portrayal ofHester Prynne inThe Scarlet Letter (1995), a "freely adapted" version of the historical romance novel byNathaniel Hawthorne, was met with harsh disapproval.[70]
Moore became the world's highest-paid actress when she was paid a record-breaking salary of$12.5 million to star as aFBI secretary-turned-stripper inStriptease (1996).[71][72] To prepare for the film, she read the novel the script was based on, met and observed strippers at work, and practicedyoga for flexibility.[73] Her own daughterRumer Willis, who was 7 years old when the film was released, played her character's daughter. Despite grossing a respectable$113 million worldwide,[74]Striptease was heavily disliked.[75] Brian D. Johnson ofMaclean's was critical of Moore's acting and described the film as a "tacky" display of her vanity.[76] She starred as a single mother intimidated by a mobster in the thrillerThe Juror (1996), which did not connect with critics nor audiences.[77] For bothStriptease andThe Juror, she received theGolden Raspberry Award for Worst Actress.[3]
Moore portrayed the first woman to undergo training in theNavy SEALs inRidley Scott'sG.I. Jane (1997). For her role, she shaved her head and went through a rigorous two-week military training.[83] The film received mixed reviews and earned her another Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Actress,[84] but her performance was largely praised by critics.[85] Budgeted at$50 million,[86] it was a moderate commercial success, grossing$98.4 million worldwide.[87]Striptease andG.I. Jane were considered to have contributed to a professional downturn,[88] on which she later remarked: "WithStriptease, it was as if I had betrayed women, and withG.I. Jane, it was as if I had betrayed men."[89] Nevertheless, she has describedG.I. Jane as one of her proudest professional achievements.[83] In 1997, she played an ultrapiousJewish convert psychiatrist inWoody Allen'sDeconstructing Harry,[90] and an emotionally estranged wife inMark Pellington's short filmDestination Anywhere, an accompanying project toJon Bon Jovi'ssecond solo record, which debuted on bothMTV andVH1.[91]
AfterG.I. Jane, Moore retreated from the spotlight and moved toHailey, Idaho, on a full-time basis to devote herself to raising her three daughters.[92] She was off-screen for three years before re-emerging in the arthouse psychological dramaPassion of Mind (2000), the first English-language film from Belgian directorAlain Berliner. Her performance as a woman withdissociative identity disorder was favourably received,[93][94] but the film was a critical and commercial failure.[94] She then resumed her self-imposed career hiatus and continued to turn down film offers.[95] ProducerIrwin 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."[85]
Moore returned to the screen, playing a villain inCharlie's Angels: Full Throttle (2003),[96] oppositeCameron Diaz,Drew Barrymore andLucy Liu. On Moore's role,Peter Travers ofRolling 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 likeIndiana Jones clones on estrogen."[97] A box office success,Full Throttle made$259.1 million worldwide, but it was followed by yet another three-year absence from the screen. In the interim, she signed on as the face ofVersace andHelena Rubinstein.[98][99]
Moore reunited withBlame It on Rio co-starMichael Caine for the British heist dramaFlawless (2007),[101] which saw her portray an American executive helping to steal a handful of diamonds from the London Diamond Corporation during the 1960s. A writer forMiami Herald asserted: "The inspired pairing of Demi Moore and Michael Caine as a pair of thieves in the diamond-heist semi-caper movieFlawless goes a long way toward overcoming the film's slack, leisurely pacing."[102] She appeared as a driven police officer investigating a serial killer in the psychological thrillerMr. 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."[103]Mr. Brooks was profitable, grossing$48.1 million worldwide.[104][105]
Moore made her directorial debut with the coming-of-age short filmStreak (2008), which starred her daughter Rumer and screened at theNashville Film Festival.[106] In 2009, Moore played a daughter helping her father deal with age-related health problems in the dramedyHappy Tears, as well as astealth marketer in the comedyThe 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.[107] InBunraku (2010), a film Moore described as a "big action adventure,"[108] she starred as a courtesan and a femme fatale with a secret past.[109]
Moore played a "brash and overtly sexual second wife" in the black comedyAnother Happy Day (2011),[116] mothers in the coming-of-age filmsLOL (2012)[117] andVery Good Girls (2013),[118] an old flame of a quick-draw killer in the Western dramaForsaken (2015), the daughter of a retired high school teacher in the road comedyWild Oats (2016),[119] and the neglected wife of an indicted businessman in the dramaBlind (2017). Regarding this period, Ryan Lattanzio ofIndieWire observed that her career had shifted into "smaller movies and smaller roles",[120] while David Fear ofRolling 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."[121]
Between 2017 and 2018, Moore had a recurring arc as a mysterious take-charge nurse onEmpire.[122][123][124] The comedyRough Night (2017) featured her as one half of aswinger couple seducing a member of a bachelorette party. Alonso Duralde forThe Wrap called her "wonderfully skeevy",[125] but Tim Grierson forScreen Daily considered her part to be a "wobbly subplot" of the film.[126] Her only wide theatrical release of the decade,[127]Rough Night made $47.3 million globally.[128] She played a social worker in the Hindi-language dramaLove Sonia (2018),[129] and an unethical CEO in the black comedyCorporate Animals (2019).[130]
Moore's memoir,Inside Out, in which she discusses her childhood, relationships and personal struggles, was published in September 2019, byHarperCollins.[131][132][133] The book reached number one onThe New York Times' combined print & e-book nonfiction best-sellers list and the hardcover nonfiction best-sellers list.[134][135][136]
In 2020, Moore played a protective matriarch in the thrillerSongbird,[137] recurred as the mother of a subversive outsider in three episodes ofBrave New World,[138] and was among the celebrities who made cameo appearances modeling lingerie atRihanna'sSavage x Fenty Vol. 2 fashion show.[139] That year, she served as a producer and played the title role in the podcastDirty Diana, released throughQCode.[140][141][142][143] Moore recorded the project from her bathroom and saw it as an opportunity to explore sexuality through asex positive message.[144][145]
Moore's supporting turn as an eccentric neighbor in the musical dramaPlease Baby Please (2022) earned her positive notices.[146] Tara Bradly ofIrish Times found her to be a "marvel" in her role.[147] Writing forVariety, Manuel Betancourt felt that the film "understands one should always give Demi Moore a movie star entrance […] we’re encouraged to get lost in the fantasy Moore creates for us."[148] She played a cameo asNicolas Cage's in-movie fictional ex-wife inThe Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent (2022).

Moore is viewed as a pioneer for equal salary for women inHollywood.[160][161][162] She was paid$12.5 million for her role inStriptease, which was more money than any other actress had ever been offered at the time.[163][164] Producers forStriptease andG.I. Jane got into a bidding war to see who could get her to film first.Striptease won and Moore became the highest-paid actress in Hollywood in 1995.[165] According toEntertainment Weekly, Moore's fee for the film caused a "reverse domino effect" in the industry, as "Sharon Stone's asking price jumped from $6 million to $7 million,Jodie Foster went from $7 million to $8 million,Meg Ryan moved from $6 million to $8 million, andJulia Roberts leaped from $12 million to $13 million."[69]
During the production ofG.I. Jane, it was reported that Moore had ordered studio chiefs to charter two planes for her entourage and her,[166] which reinforced her negative reputation for being adiva[167]—she had previously turned down theSandra Bullock role inWhile You Were Sleeping because the studio refused to meet her salary demands,[168] and was dubbed "Gimme Moore" by the media.[85][169] Retrospectively,Lifetime called her a "pioneer for other actresses by being the first female lead to demand the same salary, benefits and billing as her male counterparts."[170] Profiling Moore in 2007,The Guardian observed: "Her screen persona always has something indestructible about it. There's a toughness, a strength, a determination."[171] She was the subject of anE! True Hollywood Story special in 2003 and of aCelebrity Style Story special in 2012.[172]
Moore has been included in a number of magazine lists of the world's most beautiful women. In 1996, she was selected as one ofPeople magazine's 50 Most Beautiful People. In 1999, she was a guest editor for the November issue ofMarie Claire,[173] and was ranked eighth onForbes' list of Top 20 Actresses, based on three separate lists of box office receipts.[173] In 2004,People ranked her ninth on their list of All-Time Most Beautiful Women.[174] In 2006, she was voted seventh onLife & Style's Best Dressed Female poll. In December 2019,The Wall Street Journal listed a cover story about Moore as one of their most-read stories in the year.[175][176]
Moore has 4.5 million followers onTwitter, as of January 2020.[177] She uses Twitter as a platform to raise awareness ofsexual trafficking andslavery. "She is practicing what she preaches: More than half of her posts are on the subject, directing followers where to get involved,"Harper's Bazaar reported in August 2010.[178] Moore remarked: "I like to connect to people in the virtual world[…] exchanging thoughts and ideas, when in the physical world we might never have the opportunity to cross paths."[178] As of March 2024, Moore has 6.1 millionInstagram followers.[179]
In August 1991, Moore appeared nude on the cover ofVanity Fair under the titleMore 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.[185] The cover drew significant attention and was widely discussed in the media.[186] The frankness of Leibovitz's portrayal of a pregnant sex symbol led to divided opinions, ranging from suggestions ofsexual objectification to celebrations of the photograph as a symbol ofempowerment.[187]
The photograph was subject to numerous parodies, including theSpy Magazine version, which placed Moore's then-husbandBruce Willis's head on the body of a male model with a false belly. InLeibovitz v. Paramount Pictures Corp., Leibovitz sued over oneparody featuringLeslie Nielsen, made to promote the 1994 filmNaked Gun33+1⁄3: The Final Insult. In the parody, the model's body was attached to what is described as "the guilty and smirking face" of Nielsen. Theteaser said "Due this March."[188] The case was dismissed in 1996 because the parody relied "for its comic effect on the contrast between the original."[188] In November 2009, the Moroccan magazineFemmes du Maroc emulated the pose with Moroccan news reporter Nadia Larguet, causing controversy in the majority-Muslim nation.[189]
On February 8, 1981, at the age of 18, Moore married singerFreddy Moore, then 30[192] and recently divorced from his first wife, Lucy.[193] Before their marriage, Demi had already begun using Freddy's surname as herstage name.[42] The pair separated in 1983, after which Demi had a relationship withTimothy Hutton.[194] She filed for divorce from Freddy in September 1984; it was finalized on August 7, 1985.[42] Moore was then engaged to actorEmilio Estevez, with whom she co-starred inSt. Elmo's Fire andWisdom, a crime drama he also wrote and directed. The pair planned to marry on December 6, 1986, but called off the engagement after a woman filed a$2 millionpaternity suit against Estevez.[195][196]
On November 21, 1987, Moore married her second husband, actorBruce Willis.[197] She and Willis had three daughters:Rumer Glenn Willis (born 1988),[198] Scout LaRue Willis (born 1991),[199] and Tallulah Belle Willis (born 1994).[200] They announced their separation on June 24, 1998,[27] and divorced on October 18, 2000.[201][202] Despite the divorce, Moore maintains a close friendship with Willis and his current spouseEmma Heming Willis, and has assisted her and their respective children with caretaking for Willis as his health has declined.[203][204] Moore had a three-year romance with martial arts instructor Oliver Whitcomb, whom she dated from 1999 to 2002.[205]
In 2003, Moore began dating actorAshton Kutcher. Soon after they began dating, Moore became pregnant and she suffered astillbirth six months into the pregnancy.[206] They married on September 24, 2005.[207] The wedding was attended by about 150 close friends and family of the couple, including Willis.[208] In November 2011, after months of media speculation about the state of the couple's marriage, Moore announced her decision to end her marriage to Kutcher.[209] After over a year of separation, Kutcher filed for divorce from Moore on December 21, 2012, in Los Angeles Superior Court, citingirreconcilable differences.[210] Moore filed her response papers in March 2013, requestingspousal support and payment of legal fees from Kutcher.[211] On November 26, 2013, their divorce was finalized.[212]
Moore claims that her good health is due to a raw vegan diet.[213] Politically, Moore is a supporter of theDemocratic Party.
Moore was at one point a follower ofPhilip Berg'sKabbalah Centre religion, and initiated Kutcher into the faith, having said that she "didn't grow up Jewish, but [...] would say that [she has] been more exposed to the deeper meanings of particular rituals than any of [her] friends that did."[214][215] She is no longer affiliated with Berg's organization.[206] According toThe New York Times, Moore is "the world's most high-profile doll collector," and among her favorites is theGene Marshallfashion doll.[216] At one point, she kept a separate residence to house her 2,000 dolls.[217]
Moore became a special contributor to theCNN Freedom Project and traveled toNepal to meet with 2010 CNN Hero of the YearAnuradha Koirala and her organization,Maiti Nepal, which has rescued more than 12,000 stolen Nepalese children from sex trafficking since 1993.[220] Moore was the narrator and anchor ofCNN's documentary on child trafficking, calledNepal's Stolen Children, which aired on June 26, 2011.[221] In the documentary, Moore talked to Nepal's prime minister,Jhalanath Khanal, and young girls who were forced into prostitution before being saved by a Nepalese nonprofit.[221][222] Moore appeared onPETA's Worst-Dressed List in 2009 for wearing fur;[223] two years later she supported the group's efforts to ban circus workers' use of bullhooks on elephants.[224]
In 2009, Moore and Kutcher launched DNA Foundation, a nonprofit,non-governmental organization directed towards fighting childsexual slavery.[225][226][227] The foundation's first campaign included several celebrities, includingJustin Timberlake,Sean Penn,Bradley Cooper appearing in a series of viral videos proclaiming: "Real Men Don't Buy Girls."[228] In November 2012, the foundation said it was renaming asThorn: Digital Defenders of Children, which aimed "to disrupt and deflate the predatory behavior of those who abuse and traffic children, solicit sex with children or create and sharechild pornography."[226] Thorn: Digital Defenders of Children, assisted law enforcement in identifying 5,894 child sex trafficking victims and rescuing 103 children from "situations where their sexual abuse was recorded and distributed" in 2017, according to the organization's 2017 impact report.[229] In 2018, Los Angeles-based nonprofit organization, Visionary Women honored Moore with its inaugural Visionary Woman Award for her work to combat human trafficking.[230][231][232] In 2022, Thorn found 824,466 child sexual abuse material files and identified 1,895 victims of child sexual abuse.[233] Moore received the Courage Award at The Women’s Cancer Research Fund's gala in April 2024.[234]
