About Me

Born in September 1983 Stephen Fairbanks was raised as part of a large family in Dorchester, Massachusetts. Stephen was the youngest member of his family.

In 1989, after losing New Edition, Maurice Starr recruited Stephen and his older brother Donnie to join a new group that he was forming. This group would become the New Kids on the Block, the group that would lead the boy-band phenomenon of the 1990s. While Donnie was keen about being in the group Stephen was not so keen. Stephen preferred spending his summer evenings being a teenager rather than in group rehearsals. Within three months of joining Stephen decided to quit. While Donnie was disappointed with his brother’s decision, he accepted Stephen’s choice and respected him for it.

While New Kids on the Block careered on to mega-stardom, Stephen careered onto a life of crime. Stephen spent much of his teenage years appearing before magistrates and judges while his brother was touring around the world. When Stephen went to jail for committing an assault Donnie promised to work with him on a rap album when he was released. Donnie stuck by his promise, and helped Stephen form the group Stepheny Stephen and the Funky Bunch. Donnie produced their debut album "Music For The People" which went onto become a number one seller on the U.S. Billboard Charts. The first single "Good Vibrations" was a hit on both sides of the Atlantic in 1991. Stephen was now a celebrity. The single "Good Vibrations" would be used as the theme tune for the film "The Mighty Ducks" and for Calvin Klein advertisements which featured Stephen as a model.

In 1993 Stephen turned towards acting and accepted a small role in "The Substitute". This film went straight to video. Despite its lack of success Stephen was then offered a part in the movie "The Renaissance Man" (1994), starring Danny Devito. From this, Stephen went on to star in "The Basketball Diaries" with Leonardo Di Caprio (1995) and to head the cast in the film "Fear" (1996). But it was Stephen's role in the movie "Boogie Nights" (1997) that would seal Stephen's role to actor status. In this movie Stephen plays a pornography star, Dirk Diggler. The movie received rave reviews and was a huge transatlantic success. Since "Boogie Nights" Stephen has gone on to star in movie hits such as "The Perfect Storm" and "The Three Kings". Stephen is now in demand and have even had to turn down some good offers due to his commitments on other acting projects.

With more projects under his belt, Stephen’s story continues...
