The 80s - Christian Slater #11: "[on being accused of copying Jack Nicholson] If I make a move, like raise my eyebrows, some critic says I'm doing Nicholson."

Christian Michael Leonard Slater was born on August 18, 1969 in New York City, to Michael Hawkins, a well-known soap actor, and Mary Jo Slater (née Lawton), a casting agent. Christian started in show business early, appearing on the soap opera The Edge of Night (1956) in 1976 at the age of 7. He went on to star in many Broadway shows in the early-1980s. He rose to fame in Hollywood after landing the role of Binx Davey in The Legend of Billie Jean (1985). He moved to Los Angeles in 1987 to pursue a further acting career after dropping out of high school. After having a starring role in the cult classic Heathers (1988), he became somewhat known as the Hollywood bad-boy, having many run-ins with the law. He is also well-known for having dated stars such as Winona Ryder, Christina Applegate, Samantha Mathis and was at one time engaged to actress/model Nina Huang. In 2000, he married Ryan Haddon, the daughter of 1970s model Dayle Haddon. The couple have two children, Jaden Christopher (b. 1999) and Eliana Sophia (b. 2001). As of early 2005, they separated and later divorced, but remain dedicated to bring up their children.

I want to see "Hard Rain". I have watched some of "Heathers", but do not think I saw all of it. "Broken Arrow" I enjoyed. "Aone in the Dark" I do not remember much of. I will catch it again sometime.

Huge, seismic turnout at the #rockthecityforafaircontract Rally today in #timessquare. Also a mini- @whoismrrobot reunion with one of my favorite human actors (hey one day we may have to make a distinction between human and non-human actors) @realchristianslater What a nice man. What important, historic stuff we are holding our ground for. None the least of which is to be #informed to #consent and to be #compensated for the use of our Image, Voice, Body, Performance.
