Yes, it’s Christopher Ashton Kutcher, and no, you’re not being Punk’d! Kutcher started acting in his teenage years. His career only grew from there, and even branched beyond entertainment into the realm of venture capital firms.
Looking like he does makes it hard to believe that he’s ever done anything not glamorous, but reality tells a different story. When he was younger, Kutcher worked as a grocery store employee, cleaned factories, and helped his father with construction projects. Such a hard-working kid!
Jerry Seinfeld: Light Bulb Salesman
Jerry Seinfeld is best known for playing himself in the hit sitcom "Seinfeld". It was during his time in College that Seinfeld developed an interest in stand-up comedy, and started performing at an open-mic night at New York City’s Catch a Rising Star. But that humble beginning wasn't how he supported himself at first.
Before becoming an actor and a comedy superstar, Jerry sold light bulbs over the phone, which tells us a lot about the telemarketing industry back then. Other than that, Seinfeld also sold knockoff jewelry around New York City. None of those jobs would have helped him get his impressive car collection, that's for sure.
Tina Fey: Receptionist
Tina became famous thanks to her participation on Saturday Night Live, where she is most commonly known for her sketch comedy work. She also took on roles in the TV show "30 Rock" and other movies.
Tina has too many awards to count, but that hasn't always been the case. Before her glory days as an award-winning comedian with a net worth of $65 million, Fey was working in something far less glamorous as a YMCA receptionist.
Demi Moore: Debt Collector
Demi Moore is an accomplished actress, director, model, and former songwriter. She has proven again and again how dedicated she is to her craft as not many actresses would shave their heads bald for a movie role like she did in the iconic film, "G.I. Jane".
Have you ever wondered how Moore used to pay her bills before becoming a well-respected actress? Well, we have, and we looked it up. Apparently, Moore used to work as a debt collector! Not what you'd expect from a dainty woman such as Demi.
Christopher Walken: Lion Tamer
We were shocked to find out that Christopher Walken's first job was a circus lion tamer when he was just 16 years old. Next, he liked to dance, so he trained as a dancer before moving on to stage performance. He broke into showbiz a stage actor in an off-Broadway musical starring alongside Liza Minnelli.
The next thing he knew, he was starring opposite Sean Connery in "The Anderson Tapes" and a slew of eccentric characters and powerful roles. None of those roles, however, required lion taming. Oh well, maybe in his next film.
