It may seem like celebrities have everything, and many do, but not all of them had it easy getting there.
Just because theyโre now rich and famous doesnโt mean that these stars donโt know what itโs like to struggle.
Whether it be for the sake of following their Hollywood dreams or because they had lifelong issues with money, these 40+ A-listers were homeless before they made it big.
Jennifer Lopez
Jennifer Lopez took a risk in choosing homelessness for the sake of pursuing a Hollywood career. Luckily, it worked out for this now-millionaire singer/actress. JLo’s mom wanted her to go to college but Jennifer had other plans.

The singer moved into her dance studio, slept on the couch, and booked her first gig a month later. Within a year, Lopez had booked In Living Color, the show that made her famous. Clearly, JLo’s risk has paid off!
