Cuba Gooding Jr.

Cuba Gooding Jr. (born January 2, 1968) is an American actor.

His family moved to Los Angeles after his father's group had a hit single with "Everybody Plays the Fool" in 1972 by Cuba Gooding[?]. Unfortunately, the elder Gooding abandoned his family two years later. The subsequently tumultuous nature of Gooding Jr.'s upbringing did not deter him from achievement: During his teens, he attended four different high schools but managed to become class president of three of them.
