Facts About Rob Lowe
So, what has he starred in?
First of all, the above picture was taken about 12 years ago, and it doesn’t matter. Rob Lowe looks about the same. He’s about just 9 years younger than me. And it makes me realize just how unfair life is. More about that later. I will admit I’m not very familiar with Rob’s work.
I know he made an infamous sex tape in 1988, and his career subsequently went into the tank. Around the turn of the century, his career started rebounding. I have seen him on 9–1–1: Lone Star, as well as Atkins commercials. So, after some more research, here are some things you didn’t know about Rob Lowe.
1: During the 80s he was a member of Hollywood’s Brat Pack.
For older readers among us, the Brat Pack was like the Rat Pack, but without as many wrinkles, and less talent and charisma.
2: Rob lost the hearing in his right ear when he was a baby due to an undiagnosed case of the mumps.
Usually, a guy would rather get the mumps as a kid instead of as an adult. However, not in Rob’s case.
