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

2. Reese Witherspoon

Reese Witherspoon is known for her roles in the Legally Blonde movies and for her film debut inCruel Intentions. The bright-eyed actress said that she heard several times that she wasn’t tall enough orpretty enough for the roles she was auditioning for. This happened when she first arrived in Hollywood, but she decided to push the criticisms aside and pursue a lucrative career. Witherspoon is also still respected for her role as June Carter Cash, in the Johnny Cash biopic Walk The Line. We think she looks pretty great, especially for a woman with a daughter who is old enough to drive.
