Movies that led actors to quit their careers

The concept of fame and wealth has long been associated with the 'American Dream'. However, with the advent of greater freedom for celebrities to directly communicate with their fans and share personal experiences, it has become evident that the reality is not as glamorous as it seems.

Others find themselves disillusioned with the entertainment industry after spending numerous years in the business. Child actors, in particular, often find themselves embroiled in the industry after being noticed by talent agents or pressured by their parents who believe in their star potential. Yet, many of these child actors eventually realize that the life of an actor is not the path for them.

Signs you might have 'Main Character Syndrome'

We’ve all gazed wistfully out of a train or car window, music playing in the background, imagining ourselves and our lives as though from a camera.

Emotional singers who cried while performing

Music is a powerful medium that can convey so many emotions that even words fail to, which is perhaps why it's no surprise that musicians charge so many big feelings into their songs. It's incredibly moving to see an artist be so attached to what they're singing, as well as to see them feel moved by the crowds singing along with them. Oftentimes we don't realize it, but we're seeing artists' dreams come true when they're up on stage, which is enough to make anyone watery-eyed. But beyond that, we're also seeing their most vulnerable emotions. And, sometimes, when the moment is right, singers will break into tears as they belt out their songs. Whether they're touched by the immense support from their fans, or they're remembering the person their song is about, many stars have broken down in front of a crowd. Click through to see some of the most touching moments.

Female celebrities who look shockingly like famous men

To become a celebrity, it’s implied that you have some sort of trademark look for which people will notice you. There are so many stars who look absolutely unique, but there are just too many people in the world for there not to be some very close doubles. Doppelgängers can come in all forms, even as animals, but what’s more interesting is when female and male celebrities look alike. It’s not something you’d be quick to notice because they cloak their resemblance in performances of gender, but the resemblance between sexes actually makes a lot of sense. According to our genetics, all humans are 99% identical, so there are millions of men and women who look alike. When it comes to Hollywood, it makes even more sense that there would be repeat looks as audiences have already taken a liking to the faces of the stars. After all, you wouldn’t change your bet from a winning horse. Check out this gallery to see some of the most striking examples of famous men and women who bear an uncanny resemblance.

These celebrities were victims of violent attacks

While fame and fortune are coveted assets, they come with a pretty serious set of risks.
