Chad Michael Murray Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
And it is not the sole thing the star must be proud about. The celebrity is quoted saying: I’d like to get to some stage in my own career where I can be a role model. An excellent one. I would like to express, ‘I got here without drugs, and that i got here without drinking or smoking. If I could get it done, it is possible to get it done. The role don’t have any doubt.’ The role truly need children to really have a chance in life.” Well it may be a bit too early to call the role a role model, but as the star of a drama series One Three Hill, he’s already incredibly popular amongst the young adults, who make up the largest portion of the show’s crowd. Because of his unique standing, he already has a substantial opportunity to help determine the behavior of other young folks also to support them lead a healthy lifestyle.
Sadly, in ACinderella relationships Chad has not been as fortunate as he is been in professional life. Although she was wealthy, her bundle was subordinate to Chad Michael Murray net worth. At that time both Chad and Sophia were quite youthful, 24 and 23 years old respectively. And One think you’ve already seen that stars don’t usually get married so early. Maybe they do not do it for a motive… Although in the time of the union Chad and Sophia were madly in love and everyone who knew them believed that they’re supposed to be together, their family fell apart after only five months.
Incidentally, Kenzie was the primary runner up in the 2005 Miss North Carolina Teen USA pageant. The couple got employed the subsequent year and appeared to be headed in the altar… But the relationship finished in 2013 without Chad and Kenzie ever getting married. Maybe we should have quit anticipating that they’ll ever exchange the holy vows following the initial three years of betrothal. We still do not know the type of issues have brought the couple apart, but it’s clear that even Chad Michael Murray net worth couldn’t have repaired them.

|---|---|
| 1 | (2003) I've never considered myself a dreamer. I have goals and I'm going to obtain them. I say, "This is what I want to do", and then I go do it. When I came to town, my first three goals came true -- in the order I set them up. I sat down with my manager the first day. He wanted to know my goals and why I was here. I told him I wanted to be on the WB. I said, "It's great training ground". I wanted to be on Dawson's Creek (1998). I told him, "I think those kids could help me sharpen my teeth. They could teach me a lot". I also told them I wanted my own series. In that order, it's happened! It's really, really weird. |
| 2 | (2003, on first moving to L.A.) My first thought was, "Oh my goodness. I'm alone. What do I do now?" I didn't know anybody. I'd sit at home in a studio apartment that had nothing. I had two channels on my TV. I didn't even have furniture. I slept on the floor. I'd get lonely during the day so I'd pick up the phone and want to talk to people from home. |
| 3 | (2003, on his love of football) Sunday mornings, I wake up at 10 and I don't leave from in front of the set until midnight. I have friends over, except when the Buffalo Bills are playing. Then I don't want anyone around. It's just me and the dog. We sit there in our Buffalo Bills jerseys -- my dog has one too -- and we totally focus on the game. At 8 p.m. I take a break and watch The Simpsons, then it's back to football. Listen, I even have DirecTV in my trailer for when we have to work out of town. I'm not missing any games. |
| 4 | I don't like to be alone. It's scary being alone. I'm always worried that I'm going to be abandoned or that people won't care for me. |
| 5 | I love acting, but part of me wants to have a family, raise kids - have a normal life. |
| 6 | Imagine you are walking along and you trip over something and you turn around and find that it is a huge diamond. You would pick it up and do everything in your power to take care of that diamond because it might take care of you for the rest of your life. - on fiancée Kenzie Dalton. |
| 7 | In the end, it's not about fame or fortune. It's what you leave behind
|
| 8 | Yeah, you lose equipment, You lose the stage. You lose everything else. But the fact of the matter is everyone got out OK. That's all we cared about. Everything else can be replaced. |
| 9 | "I just want to be healthy and happy. I don't want to hurt anybody or make them mad. If that's a philosophy then that's my philosophy. |
| 10 | When you realize you're alive, you can live life! |
| 11 | I am bothered by some rumors, but they come with the job. |
| 12 | I am an ordinary guy who likes normal things, and have feelings like a normal human being. |
| 13 | Tyler Hilton is one of my best friends now, As a human being, he's an incredible person and as an artist, he's an incredible artist. I love his music, every time I get in the car, he's in the CD player. |
| 14 | My goal is to grow as much as I can as a human being. |
| 15 | If nothing had happened for me with acting, I would have gone to college and played football. |
| 16 | I love older music, Frank Sinatra, James Brown - there's so much passion in their songs. |
| 17 | I hated high school. I didn't have any friends because I didn't fit in, but I enjoyed the educational part of it. My teachers allowed me to be creative, so I thought past high school to what I wanted to do. |
| 18 | The rumors - that's the thing I hate. People assume way too much, and I can't stand it. I know the truth; I don't feel like I have to defend myself. I'm a pretty good guy. Yeah, I like to go out with my boys and have a good time - I'm 23 years old! But the next thing you know, there are 20 stories about me. It's inappropriate on so many levels. I don't know if it will ever stop. All I need to know is, I have faith in myself and I know what's really going on. |
| 19 | Writing inspires me. I couldn't live without my journal. |
| 20 | My ideal girl is someone who's smart and pretty in an innocent way, and someone who listens and cares. |
| 21 | [on why he looked so different when not filming OTH] I prefer to keep my hair short - very short. I also like having a good amount of facial hair. But unfortunately, Lucas cannot have a beard. At the end of the season, hacking off the hair is my ritual. It all goes! |
| 22 | I'm scared of dolls. When I was a little kid, we used to go to my grandma's house and she'd have all these porcelain dolls and they are just freaky. They have those little painted faces on them...and ugh! They used to scare the crap out of me. |
| 23 | I love a conservative girl. Let me be honest. I love a great pair of jeans and I love turtlenecks... Most guys want to see a girl wearing nothing! Tank tops are cute, too. Then you show a little skin, but you're still conservative. |
| 24 | I didn't fit in to the trends at school, but I did just fine. |
| 25 | "Dad never had time to relax. When we were young, he'd get us off to school before he'd go to work as a controller for a nine-hour day, come home, make dinner, make sure we got our homework done, then go right to sleep and do it all over again the next morning." - Chad says of his father's hectic work and family juggling act. |
| 26 | "Trust me, high school ends. You graduate and get away from all the people you never want to see again - it's all good". |
| 27 | "I think people should do what makes them happy. Peer pressure shouldn't make an impact on what you want to do with your life". |
| 28 | When asked about what he thinks is the most important issue he says, "Kids being drug-free. I always want kids to be allowed to have a chance or a shot in life." |
