Rupert Everett

Notes / Trivia
Attended the prestigious English Roman Catholic school, Ampleforth, in York, which he enjoyed, although he left school at 15. Turned down the Daniel Day-Lewis role in A Room with a View (1985). 1999 VH1 Vogue Fashion Award for most fashionable male celebrity. By his suggestion, Madonna chosed to re-record, the old song "American Pie". Was expelled from London's Central School of Speech and Drama for insubordination. Plays the piano. Writes for "Vanity Fair". Former, successful model in Milan. Speaks English, French & Italian. Lives in London, New York, Paris & Miami. Owns a Black Lab, named Moise. 6' 4", brown eyes/hair Bought a home in Los Angeles for his dog's sake. His black Lab, Moise, was suffering from painful arthritis, so the actor relocated to the city in order for his beloved pet to heal. Everett even turned down a role on the London stage, because it meant having to have his dog quarantined for six months. [May 1999] Showed his musical talents on two remakes: singing backup on Madonna's remake of "American Pie" and by dueting with Brit pop star Robbie Williams on a version of the classic "They Can't Take That Away from Me". He has become an icon in Italy since the late 80s, mostly because Tiziano Sclavi, the author of the popular comics "Dylan Dog", chose his face for the protagonist. "Dellamorte Dellamore" is based upon a novel by Sclavi, as well: so, Everett was the natural choice for the Italian audience. He was awarded the 1981 London Critics' Circle Theatre Award (Drama Theatre Awards) for Most Promising New Actor of 1980 for his performance in Another Country. Attended the wedding of Joan Collins and Percy Gibson. In Stage Beauty (2004), plays King Charles II, the son of King Charles I, whom he played in To Kill a King (2003).
