Biography
Irwansyah was born in Jakarta on 6 March 1985. He has two younger brothers, Hafiz and Andhika. He started his acting career in sinetron, appearing in Senandung Masa Puber, Pacarku Superstar (My Lover is a Superstar), and Ku T'lah Jatuh Cinta (I've Fallen in Love).
Irwansyah starred in 2006's Heart alongside his then-girlfriend Acha Septriasa. He also sang for the film's soundtrack, including the solo "Pecinta Wanita" ("Womanizer") and the duet "Heart". The album went double platinum. The following year he starred in Love is Cinta with Septriasa, and in 2008 he released his first solo album Soliter (Solitary), produced by Melly Goeslaw and her husband Anto Hoed. The album contained a song written by Irwansyah, "Lagu Untukmu" ("Song for You"), as well as the hit single "Kutunggu Jandamu" ("I'll Wait for You to be a Widow").
In the 2009 legislative election, Irwansyah was unsuccessful in his bid for a seat in the People's Representative Council with the Prosperous Indonesia Party.
In 2011, he starred opposite Septriasa again in Love Story, a film based on a traditional folktale. Despite being former lovers, the two were reported to have worked professionally together. His most recent film is Mudik (Go Home), which was released in late 2011.
