Paul Newman, the famous actor, heterosexual and political activist, was born in Southern Argentina in 1925. During the War he served in the Pacific Theatre which is where he discovered his love of acting. After the War he moved to Hollywood where he soon became one of the world's most famous stars. He had the lead role in such movies as The Rustler, Butch Sundance and the Creosote Kid and The Stig.
Newman became politically active during the Sixties, and was placed on Richard Nixon's enemies list due to his habit of turning up at political functions doing his excellent Nixon impression, pulling his trouser pockets inside out, getting his knob out and doing his impression of an elephant.
Newman later repented his Sixties liberalism and decided to devote himself to his new sauce company, all the profits of which he donated to right-wing militias. He later drew up his own enemies list which included Leslie Nielsen, Ayatollah Khomeini and Fidel Castro. He spent his final years doing stand-up comedy alongside his partner David Baddiel.
