Since three years old the girl was engaged in figure skating and achieved considerable success, becoming the winner of local and regional competitions. On the set of The Vow, she tried to teach her partner Channing Tatum to skate, but she suffered a fiasco: Rather, he taught me to dance hip-hop on ice.

In the early 90s The McAdams, who already had two more children by that time, Daniel and Kayleen, were offered to give Rachel to a sports school in Toronto, but they refused, listening to their daughter, for whom sports was no longer a lifelong duty. Having taken part in a theatrical performance at the summer camp, Rachel fell for dramatic art, especially with Shakespeare’s plays and ancient Greek tragedies, and began to dream of cinema.

Rachel’s first appearance in the movie was her episodic role in The Famous Jett Jackson comedy series. In the Shotgun Love Dolls fantasy action the actress, who had already received a bachelor’s degree in fine arts, got the main role.

Fast start

The Canadian actress’s very first casting at the Hollywood film studios gifted her with one of the main roles in Tom Brady’s debut film The Hot Chick. Rachel looked surprisingly harmonious in the company of Rob Schneider, who ironically once woke up in the body of a school prima donna, whom Rachel played. The very funny and light picture is considered one of the best pictures about body exchange and the Hollywood debut of Rachel McAdams.
