Ludacris
From rap recording artist to film star, to father, entrepreneur and philanthropist, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges is undeniably multi-talented. As a recording artist, he has sold more than 24 million albums worldwide, thanks to the blockbuster success of such singles as “Stand Up,” “Get Back,” “Southern Hospitality,” “Number One Spot,” “Money Maker” and “My Chick Bad.”
One of music’s premier entertainers, Ludacris seamlessly transitioned to acting, playing “Tej” in Universal Pictures’ box office phenomenon Fast & Furious franchise. Other notable feature film credits include Garry Marshall’s ensemble comedy, New Year’s Eve; Ivan Reitman’s romantic comedy, No Strings Attached; Paul Higgin’s, Crash, which received an Academy Award for Best Picture in 2006; and Hustle & Flow, which earned Bridges a SAG Award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture.
As a father of four girls, his latest ventures include launching the “KidNation” educational platform devoted to the enrichment of children, and the creation of the animated series Karma’s World, which launched in the Top 10 in 42 countries on Netflix, received two NAACP Award nominations and was recently picked up for a third season.
Outside of entertainment, one of Ludacris’ most successful ventures includes opening his restaurant “Chicken-n-Beer” at the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta Airport. In the area of philanthropy, The Ludacris Foundation, established in 2001, focuses on helping the youth in his hometown of Atlanta and has partnered with No Kid Hungry and Feeding America.
