15 filthy rich celebrities who were once homeless (With Pictures)

3. Selma Blair

At 21 years old, Selma Blair was penniless and homeless. She lived in a homeless shelter run by the Salvation Army in New York. Lucky for Selma, she managed to get a small break into acting in 1995, getting a gig for one episode of the Nickelodeon Show The Adventures of Pete and Pete. Soon, she was making enough money acting to get out of the shelter and into her own place. She hit it big when she got a role in Cruel Intentions and has never looked back. The talented and versatile actress now has a cool $2 million in the bank.
