The job of famous people before being famous

in life •  7 years ago 

I know it’s hard to believe this, but these rich, famous people that seem so unreal are actually people like us, and they once had jobs like any other normal person on this planet.

After all, we all started somewhere, even if we’re talking about Brad Pitt, Rihanna or Jennifer Aniston. It might seem impossible that someone who was once a simple cashier is now receiving Oscars, but that’s the proof that nothing is impossible, and that life can hold some beautiful and unexpected surprises for any of us.

Brad Pitt – a mascot at El Pollo Loco


Before he became one of the most known person in Hollywood, the actor was a mascot at El Pollo Loco in Los Angeles. He used to wear a chicken costume and dance in front of the restaurant to attract clients.

If he managed to go from a chicken to a star, why couldn’t you do it?

Chrissy Teigen – seller at a surf ware store


It appears that Chrissy Teigen used to work at a surf store before becoming a model. What’s more interesting is that she was discovered in that store, so that’s where her career actually began.

She never thought that she could be a model and she still doesn’t feel like she’s tall and fit enough.

Eva Mendes – hotdog seller


Before becoming an actress, Eva worked for many fast food restaurants from California’s Glendale Galleria. At first, she worked in a pizza store called Ciao.

After that, she worked at Hot Dog on a Stick. The actress declared that she used to be one of those kids who desperately wanted to have their own money as soon as possible, so she started working at the age of 15.

And guess what, she actually enjoyed working at that mall, except for the times when she dropped the food on the floor.

Gwen Stefani – waitress at Dairy Queen


You might know Gwen Stefani from The Voice or for the songs that made her famous. Before being a known singer, she served ice-cream. She says that it was at Dairy Queen where she earned her first money.

Jennifer Aniston – a maid


Well, Jennifer Aniston is great at cleaning. Before becoming famous thanks to the “Friends” series, she used to clean up some places to earn her money.

She now says that she even cleaned toilets and that she was good at it.

Madonna – cashier at Dunkin’ Donuts


I wonder how she managed to stay in a good shape, since she used to sell donuts in New York before becoming the famous singer that she is today.

That's why its said don't get jealous of anybody's success.. take it to your mind and soul. We all have it in us but it just takes that extra mile, can we do that, ofcourse we could. Just need to focus and Wark hard. Life is full surprises:)

Jennifer Aniston, from maid to spotlight, I can't even think of how she did it. They act as though they were never on the rough roads of life. Being a maid does something to your self-esteem and it kinda limits your goal, I really appreciate your effort in posting this. Thanks

Very inspirational. Your post has been Resteemed by @top10ranker. Keep up the good work 🙂

Life is not a bed of roses for anyone,be it famous one or non famous. Nevertheless, these people went through hardships and that paid off later in life. In short, hard work, struggles and prayers are always answered.....

You are so right. But i believe that it actually takes you to do the simplest and most unattractive jobs to become a star or a rich and famous person. As those who never knew the hard part would not probably shoot to the stars. It takes suffering to build up a strong will and attitude with integrity.

"It takes suffering to build up a strong will and attitude with integrity." - I agree, I had to get to that point. I lost my job when the company I worked for for 10 years closed, and the idea of starting climbing a ladder again at someone else's thing didn't appeal to me. If I was going to climb a ladder again, I'd build it myself as I go so no one could ever pull it out and say "Sorry we need our ladder back" again.

Exactly, movement starts when we get out of the comfort zone. And comfort zone is a trap hard to resist.

Very inspiring post this is it keeps me reminding that don't give up on the dreams keep trying hard all the way destiny will take you to your goals

waaw! nothing is impossible with struggle, thank you for this post

Brilliant. I love the idea of Brad Pitt in his chicken outfit. Thanks for making me smile :)

Love reading things like this :) Reminds me to keep going. I'm already way ahead of a lot of artists, I do art full time! Who knows who else will discover my work in another year, 3 years, 5 years? Maybe one day I'll be asked about my jobs before art lol

Yea @jwolf we are all human, nobody was born special, crème de la crème people started just from.the scrach like us. You work hard fpr what you want to be. Hardwork pays
I support you @jwolf

We all start somewhere.... we only see the success... not the struggle.
