Ellen DeGeneres, who was raised in a family of Christian scientists, blazed her own trail as a comedian and actress. However, like many actors and actresses, she had to work odd jobs to make it until the end of the month while working her way up. Picture this: DeGeneres worked as both a waitress and vacuum salesman for a while trying to catch her big break in stand-up comedy!
Of course, DeGeneres’ fantastic stage presence led to television specials, a sitcom, and, eventually, her hit talk show. Today, the comedian has earned 33 Daytime Emmy Awards and even the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Furthermore, DeGeneres’ net worth sits at an impressive $490 million!
