A stunning piece of Hollywood history has resurfaced.
On Friday, December 12, Getty Images quietly released a rare archival photograph of actress Demi Moore at just 15 years old, captured long before fame, fortune, or even her stage name entered the picture. The image, newly available from the Getty vault, shows a teenage Moore in her family home, wearing curlers in her hair and a Bardot top, gazing into a bathroom mirror. It’s a candid, intimate snapshot of a future icon.

The photograph dates back to 1977, when Moore was still a high school student in Los Angeles, years away from General Hospital, the Brat Pack era, and her eventual place as one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood and an Oscar nominee.

The official Getty caption reads, “15-year-old Fairfax High School student Demetria Gene Guynes (later, Demi Moore), wearing a Bardot top with curlers in her hair in the bathroom at home, during a photo shoot explaining the life of a typical Los Angeles teenager, Los Angeles, California, 1977."
At the time, Moore was still known by her birth name, Demetria Gene Guynes, and far from the global celebrity she would soon become.
Born on November 11, 1962, Moore began her career as a model before landing a role on General Hospital in 1981. By the mid-1980s, she had become synonymous with the Brat Pack, starring in films like St. Elmo’s Fire and About Last Night….
Her career reached another level with Ghost in 1990, followed by blockbuster hits including A Few Good Men, Indecent Proposal, and Disclosure. In 1996, Moore made headlines by earning a then-unprecedented $12.5 million salary for Striptease, cementing her status as Hollywood’s highest-paid actress.

Though her output slowed in the late 1990s, Moore’s career never truly disappeared. Instead, it evolved—spanning arthouse films, supporting roles, and acclaimed television appearances.
Moore’s recent resurgence has been nothing short of remarkable. Her performance in the 2024 Coralie Fargeat film The Substance earned widespread critical acclaim, a Golden Globe, a Screen Actors Guild Award, and an Academy Award nomination, with critics praising her fearless portrayal of aging, fame, and vulnerability.
In 2025, TIME named Moore one of the 100 most influential people in the world, and she is set to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2026.
Off-screen, Moore has also been praised for her grace and strength as her family has rallied around ex-husband Bruce Willis following his diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia. Moore, Willis, and his wife Emma Heming Willis have remained united in support, prioritizing stability, care, and compassion for their blended family.
The newly unearthed image feels especially powerful given Moore’s current moment—a woman reflecting on youth, aging and identity in the public eye.
