Before They Made it Big

As the Emmy countdown begins, have you ever sat back and wondered how all these stars on stage started? For example, a young Jon Hamm appeared on The Big Date back in 1996; a stark reminder that today’s biggest stars came from the humblest beginnings.

Most stars didn’t just wake up famous. Most of them started out like you and me and had to work their way up to the top and of course they were successful at doing so.

It is interesting to see them at such a young age going after their dreams and how they started with just a small gig and now they are on the big bold silver screen. Check out the video to see your favorite stars and how they got their beginnings.
