A Salute to 19 Celebrities Who Served in the Military

We often salute celebrities for their work on screen or on stage. But these are the celebrities who truly deserve our praise and admiration. These are the famous men who served in the armed forces prior to striking it big, and we're here to offer them an online ovation. Won't you join in? 1. Drew Carey The Price is Right host Drew Carey spent six years (1980-1986) in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserves. He still has the haircut! 2. Chuck Norris Not only did Chuck Norris serve in the Air Force, but he has served as spokesman for the VA and was named the Air Force’s Veteran of the Year in 2001. It’s unclear if he won any top-secret wars using only his unparalleled martial arts skills. 3. Nate Dogg Before becoming one of the men who took hip hop to the mainstream in the 1990s, Nate Dogg was a munitions specialist in the US Marines. The late rapper once said he joined the military to “see if I was a man.” 4. Elvis Presley Elvis Presley, seen here in a 1958 photo, is perhaps the most famous celebrity veteran of all. 5. Ice-T Law & Order: SVU star Ice-T (real name Tracy Marrow) has quite the resume over the years, but nothing is more surprising than his four-year stint in the U.S. Army from 1979-1983. 6. Bea Arthur The Golden Girls star listed bow and rifle hunting on her Corps qualification card, and served as a typist and truck driver from 1943-1945, when she was honorably discharged.

The Shawshank Redemption Cast: Where Are They Now?

Earlier this week, the cast of The Shawshank Redemption reunited in Hollywood for a 20th anniversary screening of the film. A box office flop when it was first released in 1994, Shawshank has since earned its place on the short list of true modern cinematic classics. The Shawshank Redemption Cast Photos 1. Tim Robbins The most recognizable Shawshank inmate at the time of the film’s release, Robbin’s performance as the wrongly-convicted Andy Dufresne has since become his signature role. In the years that followed he directed the acclaimed film Dead Man Walking, won an Academy Award for his performance in Mystic River, and established his place as one of Hollywood’s most versatile talents. Life-affirming but never cloying; heart-wrenching without being manipulative, Shawshank is one of those rare films whose appeal transcends generational boundaries and the demographic niches that usually determine a film’s success. No small feat for a film that features a murder and a rape scene in its first 20 minutes. Yes, unlike other films that have survived as sentimental favorites, Shawshank is no family-friendly romp. A tale of brutality and injustice of the highest order, Shawshank – like its protagonist in the film’s thrilling climax – takes the hard road to an unexpectedly satisfying conclusion. In that sense, it’s a film that proves one of the most vital truths of storytelling – a happy ending is only as moving as the struggles that preceded it. 1994 was a banner year for American movies, with Forrest Gump and Pulp Fiction also vying for Academy Awards honors.   And yet somehow despite the boomer-years nostalgia of Gump and the violently audacious thrills of Fiction, Shawshank might be the year’s most enduringly beloved offering. And for a film that was widely dismissed by audiences twenty years ago, there can surely be no greater redemption. Check out our update on Shawshank’s principal players in the gallery above.

Happy 238th Birthday, United States!

Why should you go out and celebrate July 4 like a proud champion today? Because this is the home of Stone Cold Steve Austin. And Kate Upton . And Channing Tatum.

Below, we’ve listed 238 17 reasons why America rules – or, to put it even more bluntly, why you should hold your head high this week and shout AMERICA, F-CK YEAH! 17 Reasons Why America Rules! 1.
