Before they were famous

MANILA, Philippines - Ever wonder what celebrities used to do before hitting the Hollywood jackpot? Here’s that short list.

Tom Cruise

Before jumping off trains (and from marriage to marriage), Tom Cruise actually joined the seminary for priesthood. Scientology must’ve caught up later on.

Jon Hamm

He was the dapper Don Draper on AMC’s Mad Men, sure, but before all the fame, Hamm used to be a set dresser for adult films. He’d move furniture and ashtrays around the set, that sort of stuff.

Amy Adams

Before all her innocent roles in Julie & Julia and Enchanted, Amy Adams did shifts as a Hooters girl — the things people do to save up for a car.

Madonna

Before going on a holiday like a virgin, Madonna worked the counter of Dunkin Donuts as a clerk in New York City. She probably started inventing dance moves when sales were slow.

Orlando Bloom

This guy, meanwhile, used to operate the machines that launched clay pigeon shooting targets when he was 13. I guess it was practice for his future role as Legolas, the archer, in Lord of the Rings.
