We tend to assume that celebrities have always been rich and famous (they were born that way, right?).

But no, a few stars weren't always as glamorous as they are today. In fact, most of Hollywood's elite worked normal jobs, just like the rest of us, at some stage. 

Here, SHEmazing! rounds up our favourite 'before they were famous' gigs (and just wait until you see where Madonna worked…):

 

Brad Pitt

Brad worked in a fast food restaurant before he hit the big time. But it gets worse, he had to dance around in a chicken suit daily. Ouch.

 

Kim Kardashian

Before she shot to fame with Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Kim used to clear out celebrities wardrobes and sell all of the unwanted clothes on eBay for her clients. She even worked as Paris Hilton's personal assistant for a while. 

 

Johnny Depp

Mr. Depp sold pens by phone as a living before he pursued his dreams of becoming an actor. 

 

Rod Stewart

Before he became a music legend, Rod Stewart worked as a grave digger. We're sure that was kind of scary!

 

Madonna

Queen Madge used to work at Dunkin' Donuts in New York's Time Square back in the day. She reportedly got fired for squirting jam all over a customer!

 

Gerard Butler

Before he became a movie hunk, Gerard had his heart set on becoming a lawyer. We think we prefer him acting though!

 

Sandra Bullock

Before winning Oscars and floating around in on-screen space, Sandra worked as a waitress and bartender in New York in the 1980s.

 

Jon Bon Jovi

The rocker used to help his cousin in a school where he was a janitor. While he worked he recorded his music which eventually led to his stardom. 

 

Rachel McAdams

Rachel used to work in McDonalds before she became a hot shot actress. The beauty stuck three whole years working there before she quit. 

 

Harrison Ford

Before he became Mr Indiana Jones, Harrison Ford worked as a carpenter in LA. 

 

Jennifer Aniston

The Friends beauty used to work as a telemarketer during the day and a waitress at night to pay for acting classes. And we're so glad she did. 

 

Hugh Grant

Hugh studied art history before he shot to fame. He abandoned his doctorate degree so he could pursue his dreams of acting. Bold move, Hugh, bold move.

We honestly didn’t think that celebrity feuds could get any more high profile than Katy and Taylor, or maybe even Kylie and Tyga’s baby momma, but it seems we were wrong.

Iron Man actress Gwyneth Paltrow has taken things to another level as it seems that she is none too pleased with former bestie Beyoncé. The Crazy in Love singer has got herself into Gwyneth’s bad books due to her relationship with Madonna.

Yes. Madonna.

A source has said that “Beyoncé and Gwyneth are not friends at the moment. Beyoncé’s staff has been openly discussing it.”

Apparently this has all come about after Beyoncé made an appearance in Madonna’s latest music video. The Mirror reports a source as saying: “Gwyneth hasn’t been happy with how close Beyoncé and Madonna have become. It was especially annoying to her that Beyoncé appeared in Madonna’s last video.”

The two become friends as a result of their significant other’s close relationship. Gwyneth’s ex-husband Chris Martin and Bey’s other half Jay Z are close friends.

The Sun reports that  following a bitter falling out between Bey and Gwyneth, an insider has said “Beyoncé has definitely switched allegiances.”

The unrest between Madonna and Gwyneth goes back as far as 2010, when it supposedly all kicked off after Madonna has a falling out with the pair’s mutual trainer, Tracey Anderson.

At the time Gwyneth even wrote a long post on her website Goop, which discussed failing friendships. She apparently referred to Madonna at the time as “an older sister” and talked about what happens “when you don’t like a friend anymore.”

Beyoncé was one of many stars to appear in Madonna’s latest music video, along with Nicki Minaj and Miley Cyrus.

We just can’t keep up with them anymore!

It was announced today that Madonna is collaborating with Moschino's designer and creative director, Jeremy Scott for her forthcoming Rebel Heart tour.  

It is not the first time the dynamic duo have teamed up: Madonna wore one of his designs to the Costume Institute Gala earlier this year. Jeremy also kitted out the singer and her entourage for her latest single Bitch, I'm Madonna. 

We just hope Jeremy puts no capes in his creations for her tour! 

Moschino, the Italian luxury fashion house is renowned for its over-the-top and outlandish designs, with Jeremy designing costumes for many of Hollywood's elite. He famously made the costumes for Katy Perry's Super Bowl half-time show earlier this year and he has also worked closely with Miley Cyrus. 

It's a big year for Mr Scott though, as he has a movie coming out about his life and rise in the fashion industry. Due to be released this September, it will feature appearances from Jared Leto, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus, Rita Ora and Paris Hilton.

It’s been 20 years since pop icon Madonna has performed in Australia. It seems that her fans aren’t keen on having her despite the time apart, apparently.

Her upcoming Rebel Heart tour is having difficulty getting fans to purchase tickets despite previous predictions that her shows down under would sell out in minutes.

Tickets for the 3 city tour went on sale earlier this month and kicks off in March of next year. So far however, it has only been the cheapest of seats which have managed to sell.

In Brisbane the tickets start at €130 and fans have been slow to come forward and make any purchases.

While Melbourne and Sydney fans have been more inclined to splash out, they have yet to snap up the more exclusive tickets retailing for €330.

If they were willing to really go all out for the Devil Pray VIP experience, fans could expect to be shelling out over €500. Included in the package is prime seating, drinks a pre-show party and tour memorabilia.

The last time the 56-year old singer toured Australia in 1993 she cut her Girlie Tour short due to her children’s schooling.

According to the Daily Mail, there is speculation that her set list is what may have turned fans away, as well as the high ticket prices.

Those wanting to hear some of her greatest hits would have been left waiting as apparently her new material is the focus of her latest tour.

Madonna has shared a picture of her daughter Lourdes on her Instagram, showing her daughter sporting a very new look.

The photo shows her 18-year-old posing in a selfie, donning a floral hat, blue hair and a nose ring. The singer captioned it, “You shine on me where ever you go.”

 

Cause you shine on me wherever you are…….,,,,,,,#rebelheart

It would appear that Lourdes is getting her jewellery style from her mum, who wore a very similar (or possibly the same) nose ring in a photo last week.

Madonna frequently posts pictures of her four children on her Instagram page. And it seems like Lourdes isn’t the only of Madonna’s offspring to have undergone a serious transformation.

Her son Rocco has also grown his hair out and is sporting a very different look. The Like a Prayer singer also regularly posts pictures of her other adorable son and daughter, David and Mercy.

He boasts a movie director dad and a superstar, icon musician mother – but Rocco Ritchie was barely recognisable stepping out in London last night.

Nodding to the early Nineties in light denim jeans, a kaleidoscopic shirt and long, wavy tresses, the 14-year-old looked older than his teenage years. Certainly, he bore a striking style resemblance to the Madonna of some 25 years ago.

He was accompanied by his 46-year-old dad, and his father’s fiancée, model Jacqui Ainsley, 33. They have been together for five years and although they have yet to set an exact wedding date, they have three children together aged four, three, and one.

Earlier this week, Rocco had playfully referenced one of his famous mum’s biggest hits, Like A Virgin, while posing up with a friend for a selfie. His blond hair was pushed back off his face and he sported a towel fashioned into a 1990s-era hair-band.

Earlier this year, Madonna, 56, claimed she wasn’t allowed to “express herself” during her eight-year long marriage to Guy Ritchie.

The pair, who tied the knot in 2000, also adopted two more sons during their marriage: David, nine, and Mercy, five.

Madonna's new music video has just dropped, and she's gone all Taylor Swift on us. Sadly though, the risk doesn’t seem to have paid off.

The 56-year old pop singer has been teasing the celeb-studded B*tch I'm Madonna video on social media for the last few days, but now that it's finally arrived a lot of fans have been left disappointed.

For one thing, the much-anticipated appearances from Beyoncé, Katy Perry, Nicky Minaj, Miley Cyrus and co. each only last a couple of seconds at a time, with none of the ladies actually bothering to come on set to film their piece and instead opting to appear via green screen.

Awks.

Given that the video features a strong female cast, the comparisons to Taylor's Bad Blood video were inevitable, and Madonna didn't seem to be doing much to stop them. Take the poster for instance, which Madge shared on Instagram two days ago:

Look familiar?

Whatever about the similarities, it seems Taylor has definitely won this battle, especially if these fan reactions to the new video are anything to go by:

Better luck next time, Madonna…

Madonna doesn’t smoke, but according to the 56-yar old Grammy winner if her new music video isn’t released soon she might start!

The queen of pop music has managed to recruit an impressive line-up of stars for her new video, Bitch I’m Madonna. The single is the third from her new album Rebel Heart. The album, which is Madonna’s 13th studio album was release last March with previous singles Living for Love and Ghosttown.

Foo Fighters front man, Dave Grohl, broke his leg last night when he fell off the stage while performing at a concert in Sweden.

The former Nirvana member proved how he really is the hardest man in rock when he went off to get medical attention but then CAME BACK and finished the rest of the concert.

Now, that is seriously hard core!

The band went on to play cover songs while the 46-year-old got help but, in true rock and roll form, he was back an hour later and continued the rest of the concert while sitting in a chair with his leg bandaged.

As much as we don’t think it, celebrities falling off stage is a frighteningly common occurrence.

Let’s take a look at a few of the most recent celebrity on-stage tumbles.

Florence Welch

The lead singer of Florence and the Machine broke her foot when she leaped off the stage at Coachella last April.

The Edge

The U2 guitarist fell off the stage at the opening night of the band’s most recent tour when he misjudged his step and took a tumble.

Madonna

The 56-year-old took a serious dive when she fell off stage and down a flight of stairs after a dancer tried to remove a cape she was wearing at the beginning of her routine.

Iggy Azalea

The Trouble singer was one of the luckier ones as a security guard caught her when she hopped right over the edge of the stage.

Harry Styles

Well, this one had nothing to do with the choreography or the set. We all remember when Harry was bent over double after a… “fan” threw a shoe and hit him straight in the groin. Ouch!

Katy Perry is barely recognisable in these latest images from Moschino’s striking new campaign.

The 30-year-old singer appeared remarkably different in the shots, one of which she has now posted to Twitter. Wearing a gold bralet, heaps of chains and a cropped denim jacket, Katy was even sporting her much talked about pixie-cut. Very retro glamour.  

With a tight black pencil skirt accessorised with even more heavy gold chains, the grunge-glam style shoot is giving off a very Madonna type vibe.

Not all that surprising considering both Katy and Madonna were a part of the Met Gala Moschino squad not too long ago.

Designer for the brand, Jeremy Scott, and Ms Perry are close friends too so it’s no surprise the Firework singer has been enlisted for the Moschino Fall 2015 campaign.

He was also responsible for dressing the star for her recent, much-talked about Super Bowl performance. Back in 2014, she also modelled in the Moschino show during Milan Fashion Week.

And wait a minute: doesn’t that gold quilted bra look a little familiar?

Being of an eagle-eyed persuasion, we realised that that gold number is the very same one she wore at Coachella earlier this year. Back then, Katy paired it with some over-sized (emphasis on the over) gold hoops and patch-work denim jeans.

It’s been a busy week for the singer too: not only did the Moschino image generate serious buzz on social media, but her Dark Horse video reached 1billion views on Youtube. That’s a first for any female singer. Wowsers.

Madonna is hardly one to come over all shy when the subject of sex is raised, but that’s exactly what happened this weekend when she received a rather bizarre invitation from none other than rocker Marilyn Manson.

The Tainted Love singer recently opened up on his feelings for the 56-year-old Queen of Pop, and he didn’t exactly hold back.

Commenting on her latest album, Rebel Heart, Manson told i-D magazine: “I’m kind of interested in this Madonna record. She looks hotter than ever. I’d also like to let it be known that I still have a crush on Madonna and I would definitely like to fornicate with her.”

 

Um………thanks! @marilynmanson ❤️#rebelheart

It seems as though the feeling is not mutual, however, if Madonna’s response is anything to go by.

The star took to Instagram to address Manson’s comments, sharing a photo containing his quote, writing: “Um…….thanks!”

While Madonna has been tight-lipped of late regarding her love life, Manson recently confirmed that he is “newly single”.

Could we be witnessing the tentative blossoming of a new celebrity power couple? Somehow, we think not. Stranger things have happened though, so let’s watch this space.

We don’t think we’ll ever get the sight of Madonna basically eating Drake’s face at Coachella nor will we forget his reaction, and now Madonna has opened up about it in a pretty harsh way!

In an interactive AskAnythingChat video with Romeo at the weekend, the Like a Virgin singer was clearly getting her own back for THAT face that Drake pulled after the Queen of Popped locked lips with him.

When asked: “Is Drake a good kisser?” the 56-year-old decided not to answer the question, instead making reference to a Katy Perry song, saying: "I Kissed a girl and I liked it.”

But she didn't stop there…

When she was asked if she had any advice for her youngert self, she responded by saying: "Don't kiss Drake no matter how many times he begs you to."

Way harsh, Madonna. Way harsh! 

In fairness to Drake, while he pulled one hilarious face, he did take to Instagram to let everyone know that he actually did enjoy it: "Don’t misinterpret my shock!! I got to make out with the queen Madonna and I feel 100 about that forever. Thank you Madonna."

 

Don't misinterpret my shock!! I got to make out with the queen Madonna and I feel about that forever. Thank you @madonna
