While Hollywood movies have given us so many love stories that are for the ages, most celebrity couples in real life are far from what we see on screen.
Divorce is not unheard of for most celebrities but there are of course, always exceptions to this rule. This is the story of legendary actor Christopher Walken and his wife Georgianne Walken, two people who have defied the odds.
Georgianne Walken was a casting director when she met Christopher Walken as they were working together. It was an instant connection that has lasted over half a century at this point.
The couple met in 1963 during a theatre tour of West Side Story. The two of them portrayed a couple for the production and slowly but surely fell for one another during the process. Georgianne recalls that she knew pretty soon that Christopher was the only man for her and the couple wed one another just a short six years after that.
“When [I] met him, [I] knew he had a future. He was good and was [going to] be better. It was a very compelling idea, and I had never met anybody like that in my life,” Georgianne said of their meeting.
She decided to get a stable job so Christopher could focus on acting without having to worry about money. Luckily, her job landed her in Hollywood once again, this time, however, she was behind the camera. She became a casting director and in this point of her career has about a 100 movies and shows under her belt. One of these shows include The Sopranos, which even led her to win an Emmy Award!
Christopher was also successful in his acting career. He has an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role in The Deer Hunter and a BAFTA for his role in Catch Me If You Can.
“It’s very interesting being married to a man who is constantly playing a different person. You’re always living with a different person. He never tells me what part he’s playing when he’s getting ready. It just descends on me one day. Very interesting,” Georgianne has said about her husband.
Snoopy in real life: dog named Bayley is the cartoon dog’s identical twin
Everyone adores Snoopy, one of the most well-known cartoon dogs in the world and Charlie Brown’s intrepid pet beagle.
The internet is currently obsessed with a real-life pet dog named Bayley who looks just like Snoopy.
There is an eerie similarity. Despite being a Mini Sheepadoodle and Snoopy being a beagle, Bayley’s white body and black ears make her seem like Snoopy’s twin.
The Instagram page @doodledogsclub published a picture of Bayley beside the adored Peanuts pet, referring to her as “the spitting image of Snoopy.” This post caused Bayley to become well-known overnight.
The account stated, “Bailey is the perfect real-life version of our favorite cartoon dog, with those big ears and that button nose.” On Instagram, the picture has gotten more than 1.2 million likes.
With more than 180,000 followers on Instagram, Bayley is also a prominent figure on the platform.
The page is updated by Bayley’s owners with pictures of the adorable dog having the time of her life. In one video, the dog is shown sipping from a Starbucks “pup cup.”
A mix between a small poodle and an old English sheepdog, Bayley is a mini sheepadoodle. The hybrid breed is renowned for having a joyful and amiable temperament.
Since his 1950 comic strip debut, Snoopy has become one of the most well-known characters in the world. However, the real dog named Spike, who belonged to Peanuts author Charles M. Schulz, served as the inspiration for the character.
