Zsa Zsa Gabor Biography News Profile Relationships Photo Wallpaper Video.

Actress. Born Sari Gabor on February 6, 1917, in Budapest, Hungary. Despite a tepid film career, Zsa Zsa Gabor became a popular celebrity for decades, often appearing on television as an alluring, witty, and sometimes challenging guest who had a habit of calling nearly everyone “darling.” Married numerous times, she is often remembered for her funny quips on love and marriage, such as “A man in love is incomplete until he has married—then he’s finished” or “husbands are like fires. They go out when unattended.”

Zsa Zsa Gabor made her film debut in 1952’s Lovely to Look at. That same year, she also had a part in We’re Not Married! with Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire and a starring role in Moulin Rouge with José Ferrer.
 
Garbor later appeared opposite one-time husband George Sanders in Death of a Scoundel (1956) and had a small role in Orson Welles' classic Touch of Evil (1958).
 
Also in the 1950s, Zsa Zsa Gabor worked on television, largely making guest appearances on such shows as The Life of Riley, Playhouse 90, Matinee Theatre, Burke’s Law, Gilligan’s Island, and Batman.
Vivacious and humorous, Gabor was also a popular guest on talk shows and celebrity game shows.
 
What audiences seemed most interested in was Zsa Zsa Gabor herself. To many she appeared as an icon of European glamour, luxury, and self-indulgence. Often portrayed as a wily seductress, she became even more famous for her many marriages than her acting abilities.
 
Through the years Gabor often guest starred as herself on numerous television shows and in films—sometimes poking fun at her own image and antics. In the later part of her career, she had cameo roles in such films as A Very Brady Sequel (1996) and The Beverly Hillbillies (1993).
 
In 1986, she married her current husband Prince Frederick von Anhalt, a man roughly 30 years her junior. As his wife, she was awarded the title Princess von Anhalt, Duchess of Saxony.
 
Some royal genealogists question this title. There are reports that Frederick von Anhalt received his title only after being adopted by a princess as an adult therefore gaining the right to use her surname.
 
Making headlines in 1989, Zsa Zsa Gabor got into an altercation with a police officer. She slapped the officer after being stopped for a driving violation and was arrested for assault.
During the trial, Gabor made remarks about the officer, who then filed a slander suit against the actress. She was later sentenced to serve three days in jail in the criminal case after failing to complete the terms of her probation. The civil suit was settled out of court in 1991.
Zsa Zsa Gabor once again talked her way in trouble during her long-standing feud with actress Elke Sommer. This battle reached the courts in the 1990s when Sommer sued Zsa Zsa Gabor and Prince Frederick von Anhalt for defamation of character and libel after the couple made disparaging remarks about Sommer to some German publications.
The jury found in favor of Sommer.

Will Smith Biography News Profile Relationships Photo Wallpaper Video.

Actor, musician. Born Willard Christopher Smith Jr., to mother Caroline, a school board employee, and father Willard C. Smith, the owner of a refrigeration company. His middle class upbringing saw him attend the strict—and Catholic—Overbrook High School, despite his family's observation of the Baptist faith.

His West Philadelphia neighborhood was a melting pot of cultures where Orthodox Jews co-existed with a large Muslim population. Smith was a good student whose charming personality and quick tongue were renowned for getting him out of trouble, a trait for which he soon gained the nickname "Prince.'
Smith began rapping at age 12, emulating heroes like Grandmaster Flash but tingeing his rhymes with a comedic element that would later become his trademark. At 16,
Smith met a DJ at a party by the name of Jeff Townes. The pair became friends, and the duo DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince was born.
 
The pair began producing music, but steered clear of the Gangsta Rap sound that was emerging on the West Coast in groups like Public Enemy and NWA. The Fresh Prince rapped about teenage preoccupations in a clean, curse-free style that middle America found safe and entertaining.
The pair's first single, "Girls Ain't Nothing But Trouble," was a hit in 1986. Their debut album Rock the House (1990) hit the Billboard Top 200, and made Smith a millionaire before the age of 18. His early success put any thoughts of attending college out of Smith's mind.
 
Early on it was reported that Smith had turned down a scholarship to Boston's elite Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), but Smith later dispelled the rumor when he told an interviewer: "My mother, who worked for the School Board of Philadelphia, had a friend who was the admissions officer at MIT. I had pretty high SAT scores and they needed black kids, so I probably could have gotten in. But I had no intention of going to college."
 
In 1988, DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince continued their success with the album He's The DJ, I'm The Rapper featuring the radio-friendly singles "Parents Just Don't Understand," "Brand New Funk," and "Nightmare on My Street.
" The album won the first ever Grammy Award for a Rap Performance. That album was followed by And In This Corner... which continued the pair's rise to stardom.
 
Two years later, Smith began his remarkable crossover into acting. Drawing on his experiences with fledgling stardom, NBC signed Smith to star in a sitcom about a street-smart kid from Philadelphia.
On the show, the character is shipped off to California to live with wealthy relatives in Bel-Air, California. Playing on his rapper persona, and at times featuring his friend Towne, The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air was a huge success that ran for six seasons.
Meanwhile, Smith and Towne kept producing music. The 1991 album Homebase produced the hits "Summertime" and "Ring My Bell." Their final album together, 1993's Code Red, was notable for "Boom! Shake the Room."
