Childhood

Rose Arianna McGowan was born on September 5, 1973, in Florence, Italy - the cradle of the Renaissance. Her mother Terri, a writer, had emigrated from France to Italy, while her father Daniel, an artist, came from Ireland. Both parents were creative and intelligent, so Rose and her five siblings enjoyed many hobbies and frequent family travels.

Everything changed when Rose's father became a member of the Children of God sect. He lost interest in secular life, refused newspapers and magazines, and gradually became a hermit. Rose's mother didn't share her husband's worldview and divorced him. When Rose was 10 years old, she moved to Washington.

In America, Rose quickly learned two things: English and independence, since her mother was more focused on her own personal life than raising her daughter. When Rose was 14, one of her mother's boyfriends accused her of using drugs, leading to her being forcibly sent to a drug treatment clinic. The actress maintained throughout her life that the accusation was false. McGowan spent about a year in the treatment facility. Once released, she legally emancipated herself from her parents and moved in with her grandparents.

Cinema career

Before finding her calling in acting, Rose tried dozens of different jobs. From age 16, she worked as a waitress, clerk, and cashier while continuing her studies. In 1989, after graduating from high school, she entered the Seattle School of Art.

McGowan made her film debut in 1992, starring in the low-budget comedy Encino Man. Two years later, she landed the lead role in a bigger project, The Doom Generation.

In 1996 Rose played a supporting role in the Scream cult horror film. A year later, she appeared in Going All the Way, Kiss & Tell, Lewis & Clark & George, and the fantasy comedy Nowhere, alongside Christina Applegate, Mena Suvari, and Shannen Doherty.

According to Zoomboola.com, in 1999 she was awarded the MTV Movie Awards in The Best Villain nomination for the main role in the Jawbreaker picture.

Joining Charmed

Real fame came to McGowan in 2001, when she joined the main cast of the popular TV series Charmed, about three witch sisters. The show was already in its fourth season, but Rose's character Paige Matthews was immediately embraced by fans.

Her character's introduction came about due to an ugly conflict between Alyssa Milano, who played Phoebe, and Shannen Doherty, who played Prue. The actresses couldn't stand each other, and Milano ultimately gave producers an ultimatum: either she goes or Doherty goes. The screenwriters had to kill Prue, and Paige took her place.

Thanks to Charmed, McGowan became a very successful and sought-after actress. Starting in 2002, she earned more than a hundred thousand dollars per episode. The series ended in 2006.

Rose McGowan's personal life

From 1998 to 2001 the actress dated musician Marilyn Manson. During their relationship, the Hollywood beauty made headlines with several outrageous stunts. The most memorable of them occurred in 1998, when accompanied by her gentleman, she attended the MTV Video Music Awards ceremony in a very frank dress, which sparked a media firestorm. The couple called off their engagement in 2001.

In 2007 the actress had an accident. Glass shards from her sunglasses became embedded in her face - scars from the accident remain visible despite three plastic surgeries.

That same year, she began dating the notorious genre director Robert Rodriguez, who was related by marriage to producer Elizabeth Avellán. They met at the Cannes Film Festival, and Rodriguez, despite never watching Charmed, was captivated by Rose's charisma and invited her to his picture Planet Terror (which was later released along with Quentin Tarantino's Death Proof as the Grindhouse 3-hour film).

McGowan was the one firing the machine gun prosthetic leg in the film's most iconic scene and she also recorded three songs for the film's soundtrack.

In 2009, the actress seriously injured her hand, forcing her to abandon the lead role in the Red Sonja blockbuster (a remake of the 1985 film of the same name with Arnold Schwarzenegger), which Rodriguez planned to shoot. After Rose's refusal, he gave up the director's chair and passed it to Simon West, but later the project was completely frozen.

In addition to Red Sonja, Rodriguez planned to make two more films with Rose in the lead role, but the producers refused to coordinate the little-known actress from the long-closed series, and even with an unhealed injury. McGowan, who had hoped that dating an established director would boost her career, became disillusioned and ended their relationship.

In 2013 Rose married artist Davey Detail. Three years later the couple divorced. Now the actress is not married.

In December 2017 hackers leaked her naked photos to the Web.

When a scandal erupted in Hollywood in October 2017 (the actresses massively accused producer Harvey Weinstein of sexual harassment) Rose McGowan was among the first to call out the producer. The Charmed star admitted that in 1997 Weinstein had raped her during the Sundance film festival and later paid off with 100 thousand dollars.

Soon the actress was accused of drug possession: she forgot a purse in the plane, where cocaine was found. Rose claims the substance was planted on Weinstein's orders as retaliation against her. The producer's representatives called her words far from the truth. A trial of McGowan was to take place in 2018.

Rose McGowan nowadays

Currently, Rose McGowan is less likely to appear in films and release musical compositions. Instead, the singer and actress makes headlines with her bold and outspoken commentary. Rose also continues to embrace new relationships and openly shares details with her fans.
