10 celebs once told they weren’t hot enough for Hollywood – But see where they are now! (+Photos)

9. Whitney Cummings

Comedienne, actress and producer, Whitney Cummings was once told that she wasn’t pretty enough to be a leading lady in Hollywood. Her former agent even told her that she’d likely always be the “quirky sidekick” in movies and television shows. Needless to say, Cummings had to get rid of the said agent. The funny woman, who made several appearances on Chelsea Lately when the show was on the air, had her own sitcom Whitney, which lasted from 2011 to 2013. She’s also the co-creator of the CBS sitcom Two Broke Girls. Not too bad for a woman who was told she wasn’t good looking enough to make a name for herself in Hollywood.
