Jared Drake Bell was born on June 27, 1986 to Robin Dodson, a professional billiards player, and Joe Bell in Orange County, California. Drake has two older brothers named Robert, who is 12 years older than him, and Travis, who is 6 years older than him, an older sister named Kellie, and a number of half-siblings on both his mother and father's sides. Drake also has four nieces named Madison, who is his brother Robert's daughter,Savannah, who is his sister Kellie's daughter, and Makayla and Nicole who is his brother Travis' daughters He is also is the cousin of Heath Bell, the pitcher of theMore Major League Baseball team, the San Diego Padres. Drake is the youngest child out of his family. His parents divorced and Robin married her current husband, Roy, in 1995 and is now Drake's step father.





















Drake has many musical influences that help him write his music. Such as The Beatles, The Who, The Ramones, The Clash, David Gray, Elvis Costello, and a lot more. These musical influences helped Drake write the songs on both of his albums. His first album is called Telegraph, which was released on September 27, 2005. Drake claims Telegraph to be the darker album of his. Drake's other album, called It's Only Time, was released on December 5, 2006. The songs on It's Only Time are a lot more cheerful and happy because Drake wrote them while he was recovering from his car crash in December of 2005, which caused him a broken neck (hairline frature), a broken jaw that had to be wired shut for three months, cuts on his face, knocked out teeth, and a two-and-a-half-inch-deep gash on his chin that Drake said he could stick his tongue through. In all, a total of over 2,000 stitches.






































































Drake began acting at age 5, but got into his first movie and television shows in 1995, at age 9. Drake got started in acting when his father, Joe Bell, asked him if he wanted to be an actor and Drake had said, "Sure". Drake's first film was called Drifting School and his first television role was in Tim Allen's Home Improvement. Some of Drake's other films include Jerry McGuire, The Jack Bull, High Fidelity, and many more. We best know Drake from the Nickelodeon series Drake and Josh and The Amanda Show. In 2008, Drake did a number of movies. One of those movies was Superhero Movie, a parody of Spider-Man and many other superhero films, in which he played a troubled teenager named Rick Riker, a boy who gets bitten by a dragonfly and gets super powers.






































































Drake currently resides in California in his brand new house.

    Ahh... Drake Bell! hide show

    Drake Bell is my biggest idol. He's cool...
    Man, I love his songs and I love his movies!
    Can't believe that he's not SUPER-VERYVERYVERY-Famous!
    No, really, as long as he hasn't got a beard or something, he's a very good looking guy too.
    Don't get me wrong, I'm not gay.
    As I was saying, I like all of his songs and I can't wait untill he brings out his 3th album!
    O, yeah, he was in Drake and Josh too of course!
    Man, I like that show, it's like the bestest sitcom ever!
    Really funny! Well, I hope I can see him in real life once...

    Drake Bell is awesome at everything he tries to do, and even things he's not trying to do. hide show

    Drake is one of the few actors/musicians (the other being Billie Joe Armstrong; but Drake also acts...) that I can just fall head-over-heels with. He's an amazing singer. He's unrealistically cute. He's a VERY good actor. Even though I bet he's really smart in real life, he can play a very dumb character flawlessly. Plus, he doesn't laugh, even though he has some of the funniest lines, unless it's part of his role (like, it says a character says something and he has to snicker). His level of sarcasm is enough to make me fall out of my chair, cracking up. All-in-all, Drake Bell is one of my favorite actors of all time.

    Jared Drake bell, best known for his role as Drake on the sitcom "Drake & Josh" was born on June 27, 1986 in Orange County, CA. He is also a musician whose songs were featured several times on the show. hide show

    What can I say? I love Drake Bell! He was so funny in "Drake & Josh," which is probably my current favorite show. He really played the part of a teen slacker into nothing but music and pretty girls well, even though he seems nothing like that in real life. I think Drake seems very sweet and down-to-earth in real life. Also, I love his music, and I like how he puts his own spin on it, it's not just what everyone else does. I'm sorry that he had to go through that, but I think it's so cool how instead of moping about being in a nearly fatal car accident, he just uses it as a learning experience and tries to live his life to the fullest everyday. And I wouldn't usually say this, but he is so cute, hot, actually! Anyway, I really admire Drake Bell and wish him the best in everything he does, and a happy 23rd birthday!

    Drake Bell rocks! He is the KING!!! hide show

    I think Drake Bell is a terrific actor, and a superb guitarist! I always love it when he plays his guitars, I always like to listen to his famous music and lyrics. I still listen to his songs I Found a Way and Hollywood Girl sometimes, like say, on youtube or something. Anyway I think Drake Bell was awesome in his very own show: Drake and Josh! I will miss that show but I am sure he is doing great rockin' up places elsewhere and scoring more fans, and also creating more fabulous songs and albums! Good luck out there Drake Bell! I hope to see you performing live at more cool concerts and stuff, and make more huge hits in the future! Drake Bell is cool, he did great in Drake and Josh, he had some good times in that show! He did great in great episodes like The Dance Contest. Anyway I think Drake Bell has mad good guitar skills and I will always like you Drake Bell!

    Awesome actor, and music artist. hide show

    I really like Drake Bell. He is very talented, and attractive. I really like his music. Drake in my mind makes awesome music. Unlike The Naked Brother's Band, He knows how to write good songs, and sing beautifully. He pretty much got started in acting on The Amanda Show. That scene with Drake, and Josh fighting over a shrimp is pretty much what gave Dan Schneider the idea on creating Drake and Josh the TV series. Drake Bell played as Drake Parker, a teen rock star who only likes his guitar, and girls. Drake did an awesome job on the show. His acting was top-notch, and the stunts he did on the show were awesome! I will never forget Drake Bell for as long as I live.
    Well that's it for my review on Drake Bell. Enjoy!
