Luckily for the Dallas Buyer’s Club star and Oscar winner, his movie career was still going strong, but others haven’t been so lucky. Some stars had once vibrant careers that stalled, while others worked steadily in movies, but somehow just couldn’t break through. That is, until they moved to TV and finally ended up becoming household names. Here is a look at the top ten celebrities who revived their careers by deciding to make the move to TV.
10. Jennifer Lopez
People seem to forget that Jennifer Lopez does have talent. But they are simply too caught up in the hype machine that she created to remember that the Selena star was once a rising star who critics really liked. But then something strange happened; the critics became vicious, and no matter what J-Lo did, she couldn’t seem to win them back. But despite the critics, Lopez is a career-savvy artist that knows how to keep her star from fading. One of the best decisions was taking a judging role on the aging but still strong American Idol, during Season 10, which helped keep her name in the papers and her music front and center. After leaving for a season, Lopez returned in Season 13 and will be part of the season long good-bye when the show returns for its final bow.
