When you see your favorite famous people on TV and in magazines, it's hard to believe they were ever people like us - working on getting by. But even the brightest stars had to start with their simple first jobs before making it big!
Whether you're a waitress, a cashier, even a janitor, or have a weird job like lion taming chances are that at least one of the famous actors and actresses you admire once worked a day job as crappy as yours. Some were also in the process of training to enter long-term careers, such as law and teaching, when their big career change came, while others were fresh out of jail after getting caught up in crime.
The moral of the story? You might be stuck doing shifts at a burger joint right now or working your ass off with manual labor, but you never know what opportunities lie ahead, so stay focused on your Hollywood dreams. Find out what stars were doing with their lives before they hit the screen below, and let us know which ones surprised you the most!

It did not hurt when you are healthy, and if you don't do it too often. The thing which is shocking me is the fact that they don't see doctors, there is no control at all. And finally very fragile people, economically and with health problem could donate too. And this is very harmfull for them, but they have no choice, because it is money, and they are starving. I can't figure how this coud happen in a "developped" country. It is taking from the poors for giving to the rich, because poor people are not people, they don't deserve to be healthy and have money, they made bad choices????????????????? think that all of these is behind that. In France, blood donation came to High school, and everybody is happy, the youngs are healthy, and glad to miss one hour or two because donating blood.corrupt your youngs, don't punish your poors loool
