Mt. Rushmore of Non-Actors Turned Actors

I would imagine that there's nothing more frustrating than being a struggling actor, training to perfect you craft and struggling for years to get a big break – only to see someone get a role THAT YOU COULD HAVE KILLED who isn't even an actor. It would be like a medical student watching a janitor perform an emergency appendectomy. Or a baseball player who sees someone who hadn't played baseball in a decade get signed just because he was popular at another sport. But I digress. Fortunately, not making acting your first choice doesn't mean you can't be a great actor. This week we look at musicians, dancers and regular people who have gone on to become accomplished thespians. And also Shaq. Remember to get your free 30-day trial of Audible by going to www.audible.com/rushmore.
