Biography
Adam Devine was born in 1983 in Waterloo, Iowa. There he spent his early childhood, and then the Devine family moved to the city of Omaha. There, Adam graduated from high school.
Sometimes it happens that a tragedy leads to comedy - so it happened with the future actor. When he was eleven years old, he was hit by a huge truck and the boy was seriously injured. After the operation, Adam recovered for three whole years, transferring one operation after another.
And when he returned to school, the children began to mock him because of the scars on his legs. Adam had no choice but to start joking. And he won: the classmates stopped laughing and began to make friends, as if nothing had happened. Then the future comedian realized that laughter and humor not only entertain people, but also unite them.
Having received his education in college, Adam did not try his luck in his hometown, but went straight to Los Angeles to show his talent as a comedian there. In the city of angels, he met Kyle Newcheck, Blake Anderson and Anders Holm, and after a while the friends created a comedy group that performed at various venues in the city. By 2007, their group, Mail Order Comedy, had become popular, largely driven by the Internet channels YouTube and MySpace. A year later, the first music video of this group was released, which the public really liked. And a year later, the friends released their first music album "Purple Magic".
