1985

Moore got her big break in 1985 after being cast in St. Elmo's Fire — a film that follows a group of friends navigating post-grad life. Moore's role as Jules placed the then-22-year-old on the public's radar.
Moore, who won a Golden Globe for her role in The Substance, gave a heartwarming acceptance speech while addressing the pressure placed on women in Hollywood.
"I've been doing this a long time, over 45 years. This is the first time I've ever won anything as an actor and I'm just so humbled and so grateful," Moore shared.

"Thirty years ago, I had a producer tell me that I was a popcorn actress and at that time, I made that mean that [awards] weren't something that I was allowed to have, that I could do movies that were successful, that made a lot of money, but that I couldn't be acknowledged," she continued.

Signature Pixie Era

One of Moore's most iconic roles was in the film Ghost, which is the same project Whoopi Goldberg won an Oscar for. Aside from acting, fans of the movie fell in love with the mom-of-three's pixie cut, and it quickly became en-vogue. 
Throughout the decade, Moore became one of the highest-paid leading ladies in the industry.

Late '90s

As Moore's career grew, she continued to influence style trends with her own haircuts. Following her beloved short 'do, Moore began sporting a chic bob.

2000

Moore took a step back from her promising career in Hollywood to focus on life in Idaho with her second husband, Bruce Willis, and their three children, Rumer, Tallulah and Scout.
After Moore and Willis finalized their divorce in 2000, the author began to return to her high-profile career, as she starred in the psychological romantic thriller Passion of Mind. Entering the new millennium, Moore was seen with longer locks of her dark hair. 

Becoming Mrs. Ashton Kutcher

In 2003, Moore began dating Ashton Kutcher, and the pair quickly became one of Hollywood's it-couples during their eight-year romance. 
Throughout their public relationship, Moore and Kutcher were red carpet darlings. However, the duo split in 2011 and finalized their divorce in 2013, and Moore began to open up about the rise and fall of their union when she published her memoir, Inside Out.
"The addiction and the co-dependency, like my addiction to Ashton —that was probably almost more devastating because it took me seriously away emotionally," the starlet told Jada Pinkett Smith on an episode of Red Table Talk.

2019

Since publishing her autobiography in 2019, Moore has embraced the California-cool aesthetic. The 62-year-old is often seen with Rapunzel-esque tresses and a more relaxed wardrobe.
