Picture Trivia
Before becoming an action superstar in
his Die Hard films, Bruce Willis’
action-comedy potentials were first seen in his role as private detective David
Addison Jr. opposite Cybill Sheperd in the TV series Moonlighting (1985-1989).
Do you know that before all these he
was also a recording artist during the 1980s? Willis had a hit single –
“Respect Yourself” – and his album The
Return of Bruno, released on January 20, 1987, was a “moderate success.”
