Former Celebrities Who Now Have Normal Jobs

The character of Topanga Lawrence may have returned in Girl Meets World, but Danielle Fishel has also worked as an author, chef, director and reporter for PopSugar.

When the show ended, she spent a short while as the spokeswoman for Nutrisystem, then went on to become a resident reporter on PopSugar and eventually went back to acting, starring in the spinoff Girls7 Meet World.

She also does some work for PopSugar’s spinoff channel PopSugar Girls Guide.

From big-time action star to small-town sheriff. Steven Seagal has been making action movies for decades but has also been serving as a Reserve Deputy Chief in Louisiana. The martial arts expert even got his own reality show about his adventures as an officer of the law in Louisiana after Hurricane Katrina called Steven Seagal: Lawman. The show was forced to relocate to Maricopa County, Arizona after charges of animal cruelty. But trouble seemed to follow them when Seagal and the infamous Maricopa County sheriff, Joe Arpaio, ran a tank through the side of someone’s house. Where did they even get a tank?

Seagal was recently sworn in as a sheriff’s deputy in New Mexico. We wish him luck in his new career and hope the sheriff keeps the keys for all the vehicles locked up tight.

Cooper went on to become a math genius. Danica McKellar played the girl next door Winnie Cooper on The Wonder Years. When the show ended, so did her desire to be an actress. She attended UCLA and graduated with honors with a degree in mathematics.

She uses her former glory for good, helping to promote books about math.

Went from The Little Rascals to a barista at Starbucks Brittany Ashton Holmes starred in the movie The Little Rascals at the age of five. The adorable tiny actress made a lasting impression winning over Alfalfa and the rest of us. After the film, she got a few minor roles and then left show business for good.

She talked about her thoughts on acting on her Myspace page stating: “I was [an] actress when I was little and did this movie called Little Rascals. It’s, like, really embarrassing to watch and I don’t want to act anymore.” These days, Brittany is reportedly getting her degree in political science and working at Starbucks.

The Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory star went from working with Oompa Loompas to working with animals. The classic movie Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is still a hit among children of all ages even now, decades after its initial release. Gene Wilder played a wonderful and goofy Willy Wonka, but he was perfectly complemented by inexperienced young actor Peter Ostrum who played Charlie Bucket. Following the release of the film, the Ostrum family purchased a horse, much to young Peter’s delight.

He must have really loved that horse, because soon after he quit acting and decided to become a veterinarian. He graduated from veterinary school in 1984 and is still working as a vet in Upstate New York, primarily with cows and horses.

Left The Suite Left behind and spends his wages on video games. The child actor was recently spotted working in a New York restaurant and rumors abounded that he was in a bad place, but he is actually a student at New York University.

Sprouse explains, “I am financially secure, and took this job as a way to primarily feed my over bountiful video game addiction.” And while he is on a break from acting, he is considering returning to the biz in the future.

Quit acting for a while to teach English at Philadelphia Northeast High School. Tony Danza achieved worldwide fame for his roles in Who’s the Boss and Taxi. In 2009, the veteran actor decided to take a break from acting to become an English teacher at Philadelphia Northeast High School.

Danza talked about the intense challenges of the job: “The emotional tug of war that goes on is just unbelievable, and then in the midst of that if you feel that the system doesn’t support you, that your job is at risk, then it’s a very, very difficult situation to be in.” Way to go Tony!

From rapper to home renovator and real estate investor. Vanilla Ice was a huge name in music for a very short while, but when his musical career took a dive, he made a drastic change. He started a real estate website with tips about how to make a profit from flipping houses.

Van Winkle talks about how his new career came to pass: “When ‘Ice, Ice Baby’ was selling a million records a day, I bought several properties: a home next to Michael J. Fox in L.A., a palace in Miami, and mountain cabin in Utah; then, a few years later, I took a break from touring, saw that my properties had cobwebs, so I sold them, and to my surprise, I made a huge profit.”

Don’t listen to the rumors, Kevin Arnold’s best friend is an attorney and not Marilyn Manson. There was a persistent rumor that abounded in the ’90s, secretly passed from one kid to the next, in which the actor who played Paul in The Wonder Years grew up to be Marilyn Manson. Apparently, something bad happened to poor Paul. He was twisted by fame and as he grew older decided to take on a more sinister identity.

He put on the mantle of Marilyn Manson in an effort to show America the price of its extravagance, like a distorted mirror. Admittedly, that is a great story, but it is simply not true. The reality is actually much more mundane. Josh Saviano who played the part grew up and works as a corporate lawyer. If you want, you can follow him on Twitter.

From 16 Candles to making candle holders. Michael Schoeffling played dreamboat Jake Ryan in the classic John Hughes film 16 Candles. He quit acting in 1991 and blames the lack of offers and his growing family for his decision.

She has appeared in dozens of classic TV shows like The Brady Bunch, M*A*S*H, Three’s Company, and Fraiser. She even did a short stint on Broadway playing Roxie Hart in a revival of Chicago.

These days she is acting less and spends her time as a contributing writer to Harper’s Bazaar. We guess that as the wife of Tom Hanks, a little time away from the spotlight is probably a nice change.

When he’s not busy publicly feuding with his brother, the former singer runs a fashion label. For a while in the 1990’s, Oasis was one of the biggest bands in the world. Unfortunately, brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher found it impossible to get along and therefore unsurprisingly went their separate ways after Noel quit the band in 2009 to go solo. Liam has been busy in the years since: he had a child with an American journalist and got divorced because his wife was not super excited about him having a child with another woman.

He also founded the clothing label Pretty Green a few years ago. The company is based in London and sells menswear, mostly parka jackets, and polo shirts, basically allowing men to dress like Liam Gallagher. Surprisingly, reports show that the company is fairly successful.

The Neighbors star started a new life in Germany as a journalist and producer. Many of you may remember her as the curly haired Hanna Martin from Australian soap Neighbors, but Rebecca Ritters has not acted in years.

These days she lives in Berlin and works as a journalist for Deutsche Welle and also runs a blog about European news.

Went from American Pie to Japanese sushi. Chris Owen played the memorable role of the Sherminator in American Pie as an expert on women, at least in his own mind. After the second film in the series, the actor played a few small parts in some National Lampoon movies but sadly disappeared from our screens over time.

It has been 17 years since American Pie and the actor hasn’t made it big in show business. His twitter followers are in the double digits and he works as a waiter in a sushi restaurant in Los Angeles.

Beans now spends his time teaching children how to act. No one can forget the character of Beans from Even Stevens, he was one of the best parts of the show. However, for young actor Steve Anthony Lawrence, this unforgettable role may have kept him from getting other gigs.

Saved by the Bell actress discovered her passion behind the scenes. In the 1990s, Leanna Creel played the character of Tori Scott in Saved by the Bell.

In 1998, while on the job, a fan named Tracy Fields came up to him asking for an autograph. Coleman then, allegedly, punched her in the face multiple times.

As a child, Charlie Korsmo made an auspicious start as an actor, playing Jessica Lange's troubled younger son in the drama "Men Don't Leave" in 1990. Later that year, he was well-cast as the precocious youngster on the street known simply as 'The Kid' in Warren Beatty's big-budget "Dick Tracy."

In 1991, Korsmo appeared as the offspring of leading actors in films of varying quality: Richard Dreyfuss' death-obsessed son in "What About Bob?"; William Hurt's offspring kid in "The Doctor"; and Robin Williams' child who falls under the sway of Dustin Hoffman's "Hook." Shortly after his brief stint as an actor, he "retired" and returned to his Midwestern roots.

He grew up, shed the weight and left the Truffle Shuffle behind to become a lawyer. Jeff Cohen played the memorable role of Chunk in 80’s cult classic The Goonies but when he reached puberty and lost his baby fat, he also lost his ability to land new roles.

She played Lex Murphy in Jurassic Park and had roles in other films such as Battledogs and Tremors.

She decided to quit acting and focus on her painting. She attended Skidmore College and graduated with a degree in Fine Arts and Drama. Today she is a successful portraitist and lives in Oregon with her husband and son.

Lassie star became a computer programmer. Tom Rettig played Jeff Miller on the first three seasons of Lassie. He also acted in 18 feature films, but really wanted to have a normal life as a teenager. This was easier said than done, due to tabloid fame and use of illegal drugs.

He eventually made it through the rough transition and for the past 15 years, Retting has become a respected database programmer working for dBASE, Clipper, and FoxPro.

From Hairspray to hair stylist. Nikky Blonsky was sensational as Tracy in the 2007 musical Hairspray and was even nominated for a Golden Globe, but sadly could not find much work in film or television. The actress got her cosmetology license and found work at a Long Island salon.

It seems like her customers are pleased, with one saying, “‘she did a great job, and I look like a SUPERSTAR. Thanks to all the wonderful staff and I wish all the best to their newest employee cosmetologist Nikki Blonsky.”

Went from grilling boxers in the ring to grilling anything and everything in infomercials. George Foreman is a two-time heavyweight boxing world champion and Olympic gold medalist, but when he quit the sport the bills added up and he needed a new way to make money.

From punk guitarist to record executive to lawyer. Lyle Preslar played guitar for hardcore punk band Minor Threat in the early 1980s. The band was instrumental in making Fugazi singer Ian MacKaye a household name and was also responsible for laying the groundwork for the straight edge movement with their song “Straight Edge.” When the band broke up, Preslar went on to explore a different side of the music business and became a record executive for Caroline records.

Ruthie Camden from 7th Heaven now tries to perform real-life miracles as the chairman of CureFinds. When the series ended in 2007, Mackenzie Rosman got some small parts in The Secret Life of the American Teenager and Ghost Shark but had a hard time finding her next big role. When she turned 18, she decided that maybe posing for Maxim magazine would help bring her back into the public eye and show everyone that she was not a little girl anymore.

When that attempt failed, she quit show business and began working for the non-profit CureFinds which focuses on support and research for cystic fibrosis.

Won the world over with her amazing voice but decided to step out of the spotlight and into a Scottish betting store.

The Adventures of Pete and Pete star is still electric on set, but only behind the scenes. If you grew up in the 90’s, then you definitely remember Mike Maronna as the older of the two Petes on the Nickelodeon hit show The Adventures of Pete and Pete. When the show ended in 1996, the actor landed some bit parts in a few movies before settling down in the job he is still doing today as an electrician for movies and television.

The dinner rush must seem easy compared to feeding eight kids. Jon Gosselin starred in one of the most popular reality shows of all time, Jon & Kate Plus 8, but we guess really irresponsible parenting is not a great thing to put on your resume, because Jon started working a waiter to make ends meet.

The famously controversial father figure was hired to wait tables at the Black Dog restaurant in Beckersville, Pennsylvania. Although there are rumors that Jon was fired not too long ago for showing up late and a bad attitude. According to his Instagram page, he is now working as a DJ.

The rock drummer hits the drums at gigs and hits the streets as a real estate agent. The all-female heavy metal band Kittie came to fame at the end of the 1990s, with their hit song “Brackish”. The band started out as “nu-metal” and did well when that was for a brief time still a thing, but afterward, the trio changed their sound to a “heavier” vibe. Sadly, tastes changed in the new millennium and the death metal style did not help the band win over any new fans.

This left Mercedes Lander with the need for a new source of revenue. Currently she is working as a real estate agent in her homeland of Canada, but still finds time to tour with the band, who recently celebrated their 20th anniversary.

First server at the takeout window on Martha’s Vineyard. Sasha Obama, the daughter of the former US President, spent the summer of 2016 working at Nancy’s Restaurant in Oak Bluffs.

Some people believe this was Obama’s idea, and that it was meant to help his daughter transition from her sheltered life in the White House to the regular world.

An evil king turned academic.  King Joffrey Baratheon was a memorable character to all Game of Throne fans out there. The actor behind that unforgettable face, however, turned his back on acting in order to pursue the books. Jack Gleeson told Entertainment Weekly that he, in fact, had been acting since he was eight years old and actually saw it more as a hobby. The actor left the biz to study theology and philosophy. According to the Herald Sun, the Irish native now works in a small theater company.

While he is probably very satisfied in his new field, Gleeson is rather young, so a return to the screen (or stage), is still a strong possibility!

This legend was blessed with the acting gene, as well as the writing gene, yet decided to settle for the latter.  Legendary actor, Gene Hackman is famous from classics such as The Firm, Enemy of the Sate, Unforgiven and many, many more. After a long and successful career in Hollywood, the now 84-year-old decided to call it quits in 2004 and pursue the world of literature. He has since authored several historical fiction novels and also co-wrote four books with Daniel Lenihan: Wake of the Perdido Star, Justice for None, Vermillion, and Escape from Andersonville.

Perhaps one day the star will bring some of his writing to life. One can only hope.

From the top of the pops to the top of the apps.  If you were a teen in the mid to late 2000s, there is no way you won't recognize this face. The performer Kevin Jonas was of course none other than one-third of the famous band, The Jonas Brothers. After the brothers split up in 2013, Kevin decided to get into the world of tech and actually successfully created an app called Yood. The nifty app displays all nearby restaurants that serve the type of food you want, as well as a Yelp rating.

Maybe down the line, the ex teen pop prince will incorporate his music into an app. That would be an interesting mix. There is no doubt however that this Jonas brother is talented in multiple areas.

This Mighty Duck became an LA firefighter  Mike Vitar shot to stardom as a child in the kids classic, The Mighty Ducks. He also starred in the film Sandlot. In 2996 however, the young actor left the scene and decided to work in a completely different field- the LA Fire Department.

The actress, however, found her true passion in education. She created Sweet Blackberry, a non-profit that teaches kids about black history.
