Demi Moore

Was born as Demi Gene Guynes in Roswell, New Mexico on November 11, 1962.
As a child, she had a difficult and unstable home life. Her biological father, Charles Harmon, left her mother, Virginia King (November 27, 1943 – July 2, 1998), after a two-month marriage, before Moore was born. As a result, Moore had the surname of her stepfather, Danny Guynes (March 9, 1943 – October 1980; death by suicide), on her birth certificate. Danny Guynes frequently changed jobs; as a result, the family moved a total of forty times.
Although disputed by Moore, many sources give her birth name as "Demetria" or "Demitria".
Her parents were alcoholics who often fought and beat each other.

Moore was cross-eyed as a child and wore an eye patch in an attempt to correct the problem until it was ultimately corrected by two surgeries. She also suffered from kidney dysfunction

Moore's family settled in Los Angeles in 1976. When Moore was 16, her friend Nastassja Kinski persuaded her to drop out of school to become an actress.
