Chris Rock

 

From the Projects to the Limelight

When it comes to American entertainment, Chris Rock is no doubt at top ranks. He's got more to him than just a comedian, but also the mastermind of a series of his plays and movies. One cannot truly imagine the Hollywood of today, as we know it, without the contribution of this legend to the world of entertainment.

A Native of Andrews (a city in South Carolina, America) he was born on February 7, 1965 and after moving there with his family, Chris Rock grew up in Brooklyn, New York City, with six younger siblings. Despite this, even his younger brothers are also actors who have made their mark in the world of cinema.

People of the neighborhood where Rock grew up in Brooklyn were white majority and it was hard for him to become a part of the group. He endured beating by whites at school and also was forced to do verbal chasing by some white students. The moral strength of his great determination must not be underestimated. Finally, it came to a point when he had no other choice but to leave school, and he successfully achieved his GED.

In 1984 Chris Rock first hit the entertainment industry via stand-up comedy. One of Eddie Murphy's performances, which can be described as a stand-up show done during one of the nightclub's club nights in New York, was the place in which he saw and developed an interest in Andrew's talent. And the fact that this was the start of something significant made her career begin to rise. In 1987, in Murphy`n`s film "Beverly Hills Cop II" he was cast for the first time as an actor. In 1988, he was finally portrayed in the movie known as "I'm Gonna Git You Sucka." However, his appeal as an artist has never really ceased.
