The person I think is a Renaissance Man is Mel Gibson. He is a talented singer, and he is also a very talented actor. He also directs many famous movies that are very deep and meaningful.

I think that Johnny Cash is a great example of a "Renaissance Man". He is a very talented singer, song writer, musician and actor. He is my favorite singer and he is very famous.

Kevin Hart is a world wide actor and comedian who started from nothing to now a millionaire. With his best friend a fellow actor who has starred in more shows than you can count with your fingers and toes know as Dwayne Johnson the "Rock".

Steve will do it because he is a social media star, part owner of happy dad seltzer, part of the nelk boys, and he is a prankster.
