Celebrities who accidentally became known

Hollywood is rife with stories of the lucky ones who have turned from the poor to the rich. Jimmy Carey worked as a janitor, Demi Moore was the agent for the collection of debts, Brad Pitt handing out leaflets in the chicken suit and Sharon Stone worked at McDonald's restaurant. But some well-known actors started their epic star not because of the hard work, and by chance. And here they are ...

1. Mel Gibson





Even if you do not take into account that his career film star recently approaching a climax, there is no doubt that he would retire, rightly being called one of the greatest actors in Hollywood history. His films have collected two billion dollars in the US alone, and Mel won two Oscars. But Gibson random stellar career began in New York, the city where he was born. The father of the actor, Hutton, filed a lawsuit complaining about the city administration and won the case. After taking the money, he brought his family to Australia. It was on this continent, teeming with wild dingo, young Mel started an apprenticeship as an actor and won his lucky ticket to the world of the film industry because of ridiculous drunken escapade.



What happened?

Gibson joined the National Institute of Scenic Arts in Sydney. There he was involved in several productions, including the play "Romeo and Juliet", where he got the male lead.

However, Gibson thought about a career actor, until a friend asked to throw it to the screen test. The film was a godforsaken place where gay bikers stealing petrol.

On the eve of trial Gibson was involved in a drunken brawl in a bar. He hobbled to audition, his face bore the prints sets of fists - the bruises were everywhere. Directed by chance saw the poor fellow. Deciding that Gibson already looks like someone who lives in a hopeless future, the director invited him to come again, arguing that the film needed "freaks».

When Mel Gibson came again, his bruises disguised beyond recognition. Now Mel looked attractive and manly. The director asked the young actor to read the words of a single character, which does not look like a madman. He got the main role in the movie "Mad Max," which became his trademark, and made him famous all over the world.



2. Evangeline Lilly.

It is widely believed that LOST («Lost") has become so popular for two reasons: tangled, confusing plot and eternally seductive Evangeline Lilly.



After LOST («Lost") debuted, Lilly immediately topped the charts of all kinds of top hot chicks, including men's magazines «Maxim» (twice) and «FHM». We can assume that it is also a pretty good actress because she was nominated for a Golden Globe.

What happened?

Before she became an actress, she was engaged in missionary work in the Philippines. After working there for two years, he got a flight attendant in an airline of Canada. However, that all changed when one day Lily was walking in Kelowna, British Columbia, and it was noticed by a representative modeling agency Ford. She almost refused the offer to become a model, but remembered that she needed money to pay for college. In fact, it almost worked as a model for the company and starred in their commercials, for example, in the seductive advertising.

That's right, Kate from the TV series LOST was filmed earlier in advertising phone sex in Canada. One can imagine that for a young former missionary to appear in these commercials was like the same terrible and dreadful trials that befell her heroine thanks to the sharp pen of the writers of the series LOST. 3. Marilyn Monroe

The famous blond bombshell Monroe was married to baseball star Joe DiMazhio and was in a romantic relationship with such men as John F. Kennedy and Frank Sinatra. Monroe posed naked for the first release of a long-term men's magazine called "Playboy" and also appeared in several films.



What happened?

That blonde bombshell we all know, was not no blonde and her name was not Marilyn Monroe. Being a brunette named Norma Joan Mortenson in Los Angeles, she spent her childhood, moving it to a foster family, in another shelter. When Monroe grew up, she worked in a munitions factory, where she checked the parachutes and propellants, making planes refractory. It was at that factory photographer from the newspaper YANK (the purpose of this publication was to raise the morale of troops overseas, obviously with the help of ambiguous scenes) Place the photo on the cover of Monroe.

The photographer said its emergency appeal and chest, which can change the world. So she went to acting classes, hair cut and dyed her hair blonde and turned to becoming a legend.

Let this be a lesson to all: if some unknown guy comes at you at work and photographs, then definitely, you have to do everything he says. He only wishes you happiness.



4. Pamela Anderson.

Many years Pamela Anderson wore on television in the series "Baywatch" where to save lives thanks to his two charming "lifebuoys».

There is something else about Pamela Anderson, apart from her chest. She collaborated with the organization "People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals» (PETA) and participated in actions against the use of fur, advocated vegetarianism and raises funds for the fight against AIDS. So if you still think that Pamela - it's only a couple of big * BOOBS *, remember that, at least, she uses them for the benefit of mankind.

What happened?

Anderson in truth became famous, having been born on the day of the centenary of Canada in 1967. She was the first child to be born at a time when the clock struck midnight on the day of the anniversary celebration of Canada as a hundred years ago, Canadians were united in one state under the leadership of the crank. In general, something like that.

After graduating from high school Anderson moved to Vancouver and worked as an instructor of fitness. It happened during a match of the Canadian Football League, when Anderson, dressed in a T-shirt brand Labatt appeared on the stadium's big screen. The crowd had only to look at the legendary Pamela chest to send everything to hell. She lowered on the field, where she swept the storm of applause.

Company Labatt immediately signed a contract with Pamela, invited as a model and soon Hugh Hefner is already knocking on her door to offer her to shoot for his magazine.



5. Johnny Depp

Edward Scissorhands, Captain Jack Sparrow, Raoul Duke. Mort Rainey. Those legendary roles that perhaps would not be so legendary, if they are not Johnny Depp played.



From the outset, Depp did not intend to become an actor. When he was a young tomboy, her mother presented him a gift - a guitar, and Johnny dreamed of becoming a rock musician, and even played in several bands who were rehearsing in the garage. In the end, Depp dropped out of school to devote more time to the music. When he tried to go back to school, the director of his school was against his recovery and suggested to follow a dream.



Despite the fact that he was the coolest in the world Director, his dreams of becoming a musician began to melt. In 20 years, Depp married Lori Anne Allison grimёrshe, who was five years his senior. She introduced Johnny to Nicolas Cage. Cage persuaded Depp to meet his agent, who arranged for him to audition for the role in the movie "A Nightmare on Elm Street", which was the first acting job Depp. However, in the first place for it still remained music. He hoped that the film would be a great help in his work, but, contrary to the hopes of Depp, the group disbanded. Well, then you know)
