11. Mr. T
Actor, wrestler and reality star Mr. T, got his Hollywood start rather late in life. One of twelve children raised by his mom in a 3 room (not bedroom) apartment in Chicago. A wrestling star in high school, he was expelled from University after qualifying with a football scholarship. Working as a bodyguard, he developed his trademark gold chains and haircut, until Sylvester Stallone noticed him one day in a bouncer competition and the rest is history. What happened to him? This man has led a clean life, so what gives? He may look a little like his younger self, but what happened to his eyebrows? His hair is no longer the same, but a pale imitation. His gold chains are gone. I mean, how can you recognize him without the trademarks that made him famous in the first place? Admittedly he did battle cancer for 6 years and won, so that may have something to do with it. What made him famous? His signature haircut and his gold chains. Oh, and there was his appearance in the first WrestleMania where he teamed up with Hulk Hogan, a successful TV show in the 80’s called the A-Team, and the great villain Clubber Lang, in Rocky 3. He even parodied himself on Different Strokes. Current Age? 63. What does he do now? He stars in a home-improvement show called, you guessed-it, I Pity The Tool.
