8. Before Fame
Adam Rodriguez is one of those stars who didn’t intend to have a career in the entertainment industry. From a young age he took an interest in baseball and had dreams of going pro before a vertebrae injury ended those dreams. He was a very good student but said he had “no interest” in going to college and actually looked into joining the military as an Air-Force pilot but was denied because of his bad eyesight. Over the years he had several odd jobs before becoming a popular actor including as a bellman, construction worker, pizza deliveryman, janitor, DJ and even became a stock broker for a period of time.
