As one of the Pearson twins, Adam has a life, falling fate completely opposite to his brother Neil. When he was 5 years old, Adam Pearson tripped and fell on his head, and the tumor did not heal. Later, he was diagnosed with neurofibromatosis type 1, which left his face disfigured. In fact, both brothers have the disease, but Neil has problems with short-term memory loss.

Because of his strange appearance, Adam Pearson became a victim of bullying when he was in school. He is often called by malicious names such as “Elephant Man”, “Humpback”… But that does not discourage Pearson, on the contrary, tries harder in life. As an adult, he graduated from the University of Brighton with a degree in business administration, then spent a long time working at a television station. Many projects on the famous British channel are produced by Pearson himself.

But this 8X male star only began to be known globally after appearing in the movie Under the Skin starring Scarlett Johansson. In the movie, he plays the man who gets into the female lead’s car and just wants to go to the restaurant, instead of falling into her trap. Working with Johansson, Adam Pearson had his first and most impressive acting experience to date. Under the Skin was voted the best film of 2013 and was nominated for many awards, including “British Oscars” BAFTA.

The strange appearance, which made himself bullied in the past, now helps Pearson get many opportunities in Hollywood. He continued to participate in a number of drama projects such as Horizon, Chained for Life … and became a famous face with the audience.

But the Hollywood aura did not make Pearson a different person. He is still a kind, emotional person and constantly contributes to society. He participates in the charity program “Changing Face” to support people with diseases, especially related to their appearance, to become more confident in life. In addition, he also took advantage of his influence through acting to spread positive messages, contributing to preventing the problem of insulting and bullying his appearance.

In an interview, Pearson also shared that he has undergone more than 30 surgeries to try to change his appearance. However, he also gradually got used to it and did not put too much pressure on himself. At the age of nearly 40, Pearson lives happily with his family and twin brother, so far still acting with enthusiasm and excitement.
