First jobs are anything but glamorous, and certain A-listers can attest to this.
We've scoured the web looking for the weirdest stints out there, and these celebrities have certainly paid there dues. Megan Fox used to dress up as a banana; Whoopi Goldberg was a phone sex operator; and Brad Pitt was a limo driver for strippers.
The good news is, we know they all made it to stardom. So, no need to feel too sorry for them.
Rod Stewart was a gravedigger
Before Stewart charmed audiences with his British accent, he worked as a gravedigger at Highgate Cemetery in London during his teens.
According to "Rod Stewart: The New Biography," he hoped working at the cemetery would rationalize his fear of dying: "He had suffered from nightmares about death from a very early age and so thought, as an impressionable teenager, that perhaps getting as close as he could to death, actually digging out holes to be filled by real bodies, he could rid himself of that fear."
Christopher Walken was a lion tamer
At the age of fifteen, Walken joined a traveling circus and was briefly a lion tamer. He's modest about his lion-taming days; he claims Sheba, the lion, was very old and "really more like a dog."
Sylvester Stallone was a lion cage cleaner
We're not sure who had it worse: Walken, who tamed a lazy lion, or Stallone, who cleaned up after them. While waiting for his acting career to take off, the Rambo actor cleaned up lion cages at the Central Park Zoo.
