15 Horrible Jobs Famous People Actually Worked

Life

Contrary to popular belief, celebrities we know and love today didn’t become famous out of nowhere. Okay, fair enough, some of them may have, but a lot of them worked 40 hours a week dead end jobs like the rest of us do. Fortunately for these individuals, they were able to catch their big break and bring in the big bucks. Some of them became beautiful and brilliant actors, while some just take a spot in a movie every 10 years.

Sometimes people like to say we should always consider celebrities just like the rest of us and we should show them some respect. While I agree with that particular mindset, they just aren’t like the rest of us. They bring in the big dollars, they showcase their skills in big blockbuster movies, and some even go on to form a legacy around their acting. All the while the rest of us are struggling to survive. So boohoo if an actor can’t go out on the street without the paparazzi getting in their way. They made their bed when they accepted the terms of being famous, so they should be forced to deal with it much like we are forced to deal with the hardships of life.

Anyway, now that I’ve thrown a bit of normal life angst into the equation, I’d like to put forward 15 actors that have worked some of the worst jobs known to man. I wouldn’t want to meet the particular celebrity with these jobs on their resume, I’ll tell you what.

15. Hugh Jackman (Party Clown)

We all know Hugh Jackman because of his statue like facial features and ripped muscles, but were you aware that he wasn’t the manly man we all see today? Yes, believe it or not, Hugh Jackman had easily one of the best jobs any normal person could ever have (at least in my opinion). If you’ve seen a familiar face dressed up as a birthday clown traveling around the internet, you’d be correct in assuming the face is of Hugh Jackman. Yep, several sources and pictures have concluded that Hugh Jackman did indeed work as a birthday clown before he got his big break. Now, I’m all for embarrassing yourself for monetary gain, but although I think it’d be a lot of fun to perform as a clown for a crowd of people, I can’t imagine what it must be like to be an A+ actor and having this in your resume. Must not be easy to be considered a serious actor.
