Everyone has a past and it might be good or bad. Everyone has a place where they started from and where they won't easily forget.

Some people are fortunate enough to have a good start. Some had it a bit easy, while others had a tough time and fought their way through.

And no matter how hard we try to erase certain things from the past, it’s not possible. Your favorite celebrities also have a past, one from when they were much younger or how they looked before they became famous.

Prior to becoming Marilyn Monroe, Norma Jeane Cook was an ordinary young lady who didn't have a permanent home. Cindy Crawford, too, was simply a girl who let a photographer take a few pictures of her, and then it all ended up with her getting her very first cover.

The truth remains that we never know what the future has in store for us, so we simply go on toward our fate on the path that life creates for us. There was a time when all of these celebrities that are well-known everywhere today were totally unknown.

So we suggest that you take a good look at these photographs of our famous celebrities who were only a step away from their prospective achievement.
