Paul Walker

Paul Walker is homeless. For the past decade, the 27-year-old has called various film sets and friends’ apartments home. “I have a hard time sitting still,” he says. “Everyone says, ‘If you had your own place, you wouldn’t feel that way.’ But I’d feel restricted.” His career has been anything but: His performance as the devirginized jock in Pleasantville led to roles in Varsity Blues and The Skulls, and he soon will be starring in the thriller Joy Ride and in The Fast and the Furious, an action flick. Aside from his two-year-old daughter (by an ex-girlfriend), however, Walker’s true passion is the waves. “I love surfing more than anything” he says dreamily. Not that his schedule leaves much time for hanging ten: “I’ve been working nonstop. That’s the trade-off, and it’s worth it; but when I think about not surfing, I get so sad.”
