Jan-Michael Vincent is a survivor

After being born on July 15, 1944 with a girl’s name, it was all downhill from there for Jan-Michael. Miraculously, he rebounded from his tragic birth to patch together a 40 year acting career which has been described by many as 'dog shit'. After a career highlighted by his role in Airwolf, Jan-Michael found his post-acting days to be quite busy, as he was permanently injured in a car crash leaving him with a harsh, rasping voice to go along with the permanent scar on his face from being savagely mauled by a dog. Jan-Michael would go on to develop a rather nasty addiction to pills and booze, thus ending any chance at reviving his once 'dog shit' career. We still think he is awesome, so he is our 'Celebrity of the Week'.
