According to the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption, on any given day over 600,000 children in North America are in foster care. As infants and children, several male celebrities have had periods in their lives when they needed to be in foster care. Some were fostered while their adoptions were being planned and others lived in foster homes to give their family time to resolve their issues.

Regardless of the reasons for being fostered, these famous men have become role models in the public eye and have not let their foster care experience stand in the way of their success.

Musicians and Actors Who Were in Foster Care

Ice-T, a rap musician born in 1968, was orphaned as a young child when both his parents died in a car accident. He first lived with members of his extended family and then moved to a foster home in the ghetto of Los Angeles. He became a member of a L.A. gang and his life in the ghetto inspires the rhymes for his rap music. His music success has lead to creating a record label, an acting career and a book. He is also a spokesperson for American youth.
