Actress known for being part of The Eighties Brat Pack clique with films such as St. Elmo's Fire and in The Nineties for popular films such as Ghost, Disclosure and Indecent Proposal. Also known for her relationship with the actor Bruce Willis; with whom she has three daughters. She was also married to Ashton Kutcher until mid November 2011.

Her films include:

• Disclosure
• G. I. Jane
• St. Elmo's Fire
• Indecent Proposal: "What would you do if someone offered you one million dollars to sleep with your wife?"
• Ghost
• Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle: Her comeback role after being out of the limelight for a number of years. Notably outshone the three leads despite being in her forties at the time.
• The Scarlet Letter
• Striptease
• Bunraku, where she plays the Femme Fatale Alexandra.
• The Hunchback of Notre Dame (voice) of Esmeralda.
• The Juror

Popularised such tropes as:

• Action Girl: In G.I. Jane.
• Brat Pack/CelebPosse
• Celebrity Couple: With Bruce Willis before their divorce. Now she is this with Ashton Kutcher.
• Femme Fatale: Better believe it, see Disclosure in which she starred as Michael Douglas's predatory boss.
• Foot Focus: Contributed to One Day Without Shoes with a shot of her soles from her home.
• Green Eyes
• Hazel Eyes
• Hollywood Hype Machine: It really got behind her after her stretch in the early nineties — she was appearing on every Entertainment Tonight, and was constantly talked-about in magazines. It eventually switched itself off for her once Striptease and The Scarlet Letter bombed, ruining her credibility.
• Hot Mom: The iconic Vanity Fair cover of her posing nude and pregnant has been replicated many times for decades.
• Ink Suit Actor: Esmeralda from Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame is pretty much Demi Moore with wavy and full bodied hair.
• Its Pronounced Tropay: Her name is pronounced "Dmee" and not "Demmy". Apparently a minor Berserk Button for her.
  • They did an entire bit about the pronounciation on Seinfeld ("I never heard of a smee-tractor trailor!")
• Ms. Fanservice: Was one of Hollywood's "go to" girls for nudity in cinema for a good long time. It's part of what kept her from being taken seriously as an actress (well, that and the bomb that was Striptease).
• Mis Matched Eyes: Has one green and one hazel eye.
• Peek-a-Bangs: During The Eighties and the early Nineties.
• Production Posse: In her Brat Pack days.
• Rich Bitch: See Disclosure, Indecent Proposal.
• Shiny Midnight Black: Has very dark hair which she now has cut midlength; before she has been known to sport both a stylish minibob and long straight hair and bangs.
• Stacy's Mom
• Strong Family Resemblance: All three of her daughters are carbon-copies of their mother.
• Tall, Dark and Bishoujo
