The road to fame can be long and arduous, and it is best understood by celebrities who were once homeless and only later achieved financial independence.

Some of them had nothing against the lack of housing, while others found themselves on the street by the will of circumstances at a very young age. Let's find out which of the Hollywood stars went through hard times before coming to success.

Halle Berry

After moving to Chicago to become an actress, Halle Berry also joined the ranks of the homeless.

After moving to Chicago to become an actress, Halle Berry joined the ranks of the homeless when her mother stopped sending her money. “It taught me to take care of myself and overcome any circumstances, even if it means spending the night in a shelter and saving a lot. I have become a person who knows that he will always find a way out,”she told Star Pulse.

Jim carrey

After dropping out of school as a teenager, Jim Carrey was faced with the need to live with his entire family on the bus. Then the family moved into a tent set up on his sister's lawn, and only after that they got their own house.

Hilary Swank

“We had inflatable mattresses. We inflated them, slept on them all night, and left in the morning.”

Hilary grew up in a trailer park and lived with her mother in the car when they moved to California. Fortunately, they were offered temporary housing. “We had friends who were selling the house. They said there is no furniture there, but we can sleep there. And in the afternoon we left so as not to interfere with selling it. We had air mattresses. We inflated them, slept on them all night, and left in the morning,”she told CBS News.

Daniel Craig

As a young actor, Daniel barely made ends meet and even slept on park benches for a while because he had nowhere to go.

Jennifer Lopez

She was homeless for a while and slept on the couch in a dance studio.

She left home at 18 because her mother wanted Jennifer to go to college, and the future star dreamed of becoming a dancer. She was even homeless for a while and slept on the couch in a dance studio until she found a job that allowed her to get her own home.

Sylvester Stallone

When the actor was evicted from his home, he had to sleep for three weeks at a bus station in New York. To get out of this situation, Sylvester starred in soft porn. “You could have either starred in that movie or robbed someone because that was the end of my patience,” he told Playboy.

Sam Worthington

Sam received $ 400 from his father and a one-way ticket to another part of his native Australia.

After leaving college, where he studied acting, Sam received $ 400 from his father and a one-way ticket to another part of his native Australia. The actor recalls that his father told him to "earn money on the way home." After working for a bit as a bricklayer, he received a fellowship at the Sydney National Institute of Performing Arts. In Los Angeles, he had to sleep in a car until he landed a role in Avatar.

Shania Twain

Few celebrities who were once homeless can now boast a fortune like Shania (approximately $ 350 million). The Canadian singer had a very difficult childhood, and her mother turned to a shelter in Toronto for help in order to somehow feed the children.
