Every actor, no matter how incredibly famous and wealthy they have become since, has to make their start somewhere, as in every profession. However, from our early days as writers, editors and content creators before we became incredibly famous and wealthy (still waiting...), our work remains nice and hidden throughout the dark corners of the internet. Not so, for those in this list. No, those who have been chosen and placed below hold a very special place in our hearts. They serve as a wonderful reminder. A reminder that it does not matter where you are in life, how well known you are or how successful you are. They serve as a reminder that even those we aspire to emulate, those who we can consider as having "made it", are people in whose footsteps we can follow. As they were once unknown and living pay check to pay check, taking any job they could, so too can we raise ourselves up into the level of security and stardom they inhabit. And in that way, laughing at young actors trying to get a break into their dream job makes us seem magnanimous and plucky underdogs who are just about to break through the clouds into the sunshine above. And frankly, with their kind of cash, they can take being laughed at a little bit...
12. Jennifer Aniston - Leprechaun
There was a time in which many great actors of today had to do dark and terrible things to feed their children and wives or to pay their rent and bills. There was a dark, dark time when hollywood producers cared only for strange films that would go bump in the night. That time was 1993 and it was awful. Horror was flying high as a genre, and not all of the releases stood up to the reputation of films like The Shining and The Exorcist. Some were more along the lines of Chucky and this fine entry, Leprechaun. In Leprechaun a very young Jennifer Aniston is shotgun toting teen (-ish) who has a particularly nasty run in with a leprechaun (the evil version, not the lucky charms type) played with great skill and relish by the ever talented Warwick Davis - of Willow, Star Wars and Ricky Gervais fame. Luckily, Jennifer manages to escape a gruesome end at the claws and machinations of a small green, gold obsessed psychopath through plucky American spirit. It's lucky she doesn't have to rely on her acting skills, because they must have developed some time between this release and the beginning of Friends. Then again, nobody in this film is really stretching the old thespian muscles so we can't swing the finger of blame purely Jennifer's way.
