Gerard Depardieu

I’m going to describe the French actor Gerard Xavier Marcel Depardieu. I’m going to write about him, because he has a good sense of humour and because he is a great actor. He was born on 27 December 1948 in Chatearoux, Indre, France. His family was pretty poor, he finished primary school when he was 12 years old. When he was 16 years old, he moved to Paris with his friend. He is the third child of mother Anne Jeanne Josephe Depardieu  (before she got married her surname was Marillier) and father Rene Maxime Lionel Depardieu.

They have five children. His dad was a metal worker, alcoholic and volunteer fireman. For Christmas they got only one orange. He was very excited about America. He is known for his acting in theatre plays, some movies and comedies. I know him from the movie Asterix and Obelix. His first wife was Elisabeth Guignot Depardieu and they were married from 1970 to 1996. With Elisabeth he had one son and one daughter. His son was Guillaum Depardieu (1971 – 2003). He died at the age of 38, because of a pneumonia virus. In 1992 he got a daughter Roxanne with Karine Sylla. With Elisabeth he had a daughter Julia (1973), she is also an actor.

He was nominated for the OSCAR AWARD in 1990. He got the CESAR award 14 times.

He went to one of the schools in Malmö and at the age of 17 he started to play for AC Milan in Italy. In one of the interviews he said he has never liked ice hockey and basketball. His only love has always been football.He’s a professional footballer and he plays for Saint-Germain in France as a forward.  He’s got a wife and two children.He’s my idol because he’s a very good footballer, he has never lost his temper at a football match and he plays fair. He has surprised me because he can speak five different languages and he’s the captain of the best club in France.

Justin Bieber

Justin Bieber was born on 1st march 1994 at 12:09 on Tuesday. He was born in Ontario. Since he was little he has liked the music very much. When he was 7 he got his first little drums. At the age of 12 he signed up for a singing competition and reached 2nd place. His manager Scooter Brown found him on the internet and contacted his mother and said to her: “I want Justin to be a star.I want you two to come to Atlanta(Georgia) and try to do a single. If you like it you can sign a label and if you don’t like it you can go back to Ontario. All for free.” So Justin and his mother went to Atlanta and signed the label. His first album came out in 2009 called ” My world” and his song “Baby” reached 1 billion views in 2015. His fans called Beliebers were very proud of him. His little fan Avalanah had a chance to meet him and Justin became her “husband” and once when they were on the concert the fans screaming and Avalanah said: “Why are they screaming? You’re my husband.”  But when she was 7,she died of cancer. Justin’s world kind of fell apart.
   Now Justin is 22 and he’s really famous now. He has started a tour called “Purpose” and he’s coming to Zagreb, Croatia on 9th november 2016. He has a really supportive mum and even if his father left him when Justin was two he has  really good relationship with him. His father actually helps him with his music. Justin also has one little brother and a little sister. His grandparents sre simply the best.They love him so much and honestly they are number one fans.
    I think that Justin is the best! I’ve been a belieber since 2009 and I’ve never left his side eventhough he was on drugs, in jail and so on..I hate when people said “He’s a gay,he has no fans” and stuffs like that I mean how rude can you be? He fell in drugs because of the world and Avalanah’s death. He loved her so much (he still does tho) She was his little angel.. People only see bad in him but no they never mentoin how he helps,donates his own money for people around the world. I hate when people hate him for NO REASON. To me he’s the best idol ever. He once almost gave up but he didn’t.. He stayed strong for us. His fans.
