Jared Drake Bell (born June 27, 1986), better known as Drake Bell, is an Americanactor, comedian, guitarist, singer/songwriter, and occasional television director. Bell is commonly associated with his real-life best friend Josh Peck, who co-starred with him in both The Amanda Show, with Amanda Bynes, and Drake & Josh. After beginning his career as a child star in the late 1990s and early 2000s, he appeared on The Amanda Show and became well-known among young audiences for his role on the series Drake & Josh.
In addition to his acting, Bell has a growing career as a musician, and co-wrote and performed the theme song to Drake & Josh, entitled "Found a Way". In 2005 he independently released his debut album, Telegraph. His second album, It's Only Time, was released in 2006 after signing with Universal/Motown.
On December 22, 2005, Bell was involved in a car accident on Los Angeles' Pacific Coast Highway. He was driving with a friend when a truck ran a red light and caused a head-on collision. This resulted in a fractured skull, fractured neck, a broken jaw, six missing teeth and several facial lacerations. His best friend and co-star on Nickelodeon's Drake and Josh, Josh Peck, was there with him in the hospital to give him moral support, the doctor said it was not life threatening according to an interview in 2006. After recovering, Bell underwent plastic surgery to reverse the cosmetic effects of the crash. He said that the crash was somewhat of a positive influence on his career and to his own life saying "you have to just smell the flowers because it (life) can all be taken away like that *snaps fingers*.'.
