lol I think Britney Spears

 

Some people may or may not like this one -

I'd guess George Bush has it.

I think Bush got it double strength.  lollol, I read somewhere that Bush's daughters have it, so more than likely he has it too. As far as Robin Williams, I can tell he has ADD. He's so funny! I've heard different things about Jim Carrey. Some think he's ADD and some think he's bi-polar. I have no idea. I also read that Tom Cruise has it. I dont know about that though....lol.

Will Smith

Dustin Hoffman

Henry "Fonzie" Winkler

Just type in Famous People and ADD in your search....you'd be amazed !!

Will Smith

[/QUOTE]

but i do know that ty pennington has it.

you're probably right.

I have heard it is quite common in creative people: artists, writers, etc.  No specific examples but I'm sure they're out there. 

 

Pretty much every comic I can think of, and most of the DJs I like. jim carrey...everyone featured on "whose line is it anyway?"

What celebrities do you think have ADD/ADHD?

My guesses:

Howard Stern

Phillis Diller

Robin Williams

 

 

DEFINITELY ROBIN WILLIAMS!!! HE'S A CRAZY NUT, AND I LOVE HIM!

LOL, odd. On the radio this morning was an interview with Ryan Cabrerra (Ashlee Simpsons boyfriend and singer) and he was singing the praises of music on his ADD. Hot. Robin Williams is BiPolar. I saw him talking about it on a special once.that would make sense because that is their outlet. I am ADHD and I am creative too. I think that just comes with it. It's a good side effect!!

one day, i'm gonna be on this list.....

i'm gonna be one of those famous artists.

My post was to take a guess if you thought any celebrity has ADD/ADHD. I don't know if most of them are for sure. 8)

I don't really think any of those actors have ADD.  They may be wild and wacky, but we all know that doesn't mean someone has ADD.

Despite what it may seem, being an actor takes a lot of hard work, concentration, and organizational skills.  I know because I am an actor.  And really it's overwhelming.  My guess is there are few celebs out there who actually have the disorder.

yeah, we already know this.  we are just playing a game.  I don't know what any of these folks are like in real life, (me personally? i never read about them, i only see them acting in my favorite shows), but we are just thinking about the craziest ones, and wondering...

but according to some people who do research on actors more so than i do, who have posted in here,  so far, i have learned:

will smith has ad/hd...

bill cosby has ad/hd...

george bush's child has ad/hd, so there's a possibility he may have it.

jim carrey is bipolar,

and robin williams is bipolar..

are you implying it is rare that anyone with ad/hd cannot accomplish such great things such as becoming an actor?

Don't believe what you read in regards to historical figures with AD/HD.  There's sites that claim that Albert Einstein and Sir Isaac Newton had ADD.  But I've read that they had asperger's disease, a form of autism, which is almost the opposite of AD/HD.

I believe Will Smith has it, because of the way he acts.  I believe that Steve Jobs, CEO and founder of Apple has it, from what I've read about him.  Ted Turner also shows signs of ADD. 

John F. Kennedy supposedly had a learning disability, and from what I've read, it's probably ADD.

 

I would guess that John Lennon had ADD.Apparently Bill Cosby is, Micheal Jordan, Danny Glover, and Will Smith too, along with other's.

LSD, that's a great link, thanks.  Very inspiring. 

(now if I can just finish my own damn novel)

Good question.

Most likely many of those who are addicted to drugs...especially those who are in rehabs over and over...my guess is Robert Downey, Jr.-- one comedic genius who comes to mind now.

My next guesses?

Sandra bullock

Jeff Corwin

(darn it, I had a 3rd guess, but I forgot who it was!)

We have looked at professional people with disabilities  so our son sees your not the only one. He loved seeing that there our people like him out there.We also studied about who his school is named after. loved this also.Our son didn't explore since birth. Before early intervention he did nothing.

Blaspemy! I will not be put into the same category as George Bush.  

Jim Carrey is bi-polar. He said it in an interview on television.

oh! i remember now!

every single person played on seinfeld!! I think they are all crazy!

my dad says people couldn't "act"  as crazy as the seinfeld bunch does, without being at least a little bit crazy in real life!!...

(ok, now don't go fussing at me, it's just a joke.)

[/QUOTE] Though this topic is kinda old,  I got one

Ozzy Osbourne

He actually said it once, on his show.  Though I'm not sure I would trust anything that  comes out of that fried-from-drugs body.



I truly hope 'god' will bless the WHOLE WORLD while he is in office.
