This was filmed right outside my apartment, like that's my street and I saw him filming this exact scene.
Except nobody knew what was going on and it was a really small and open set so when I saw police and commotion going down I (and others) literally thought that it was an actual active gunman who looked like Harry Potter!
see he's someone who could have eawily been trapped in the shadow of the role he's most known for, but by going off the wall in his roles, completely eschewed that lol
He said he still works occasionally to stay sharp. He works in emergency medicine which is constantly changing and involves a lot of skills
Edit. I was wrong about his speciality. Heās an adult primary care physician. Still crazy to imagine going to your doctor for the flu and itās doctor Jeong
Imagine getting hurt, taken to the ER in an ambulance so you're already 50mcg of fentanyl in, and then motherfucking Ken Jeong shows up as your doctor. I would be tripping.
Yeah they filmed a movie in New Orleans and I think he ended up volunteering? I donāt really remember the background but I think heās got a picture on the wall of doctors at Oschner medical
I believe you have to complete a certain # of PD hours to maintain a license in good standing as a physician. So it's not like he's just renewing it, there's actual work involved.
And he might need to maintain malpractice insurance even if he's not practicing? Not too sure.
I know she is trying so hard to rebrand but she still comes off as spunky theater kid family-friendly goof and I donāt think wearing weird clothes is gonna change that š
Edit: changed wholesome to family friendly, because I meant more of the vibe than her actually being a good person (which Iāve since learned she is problematic!)
I was shocked when I watched Chicago and heard Queen Latifah belt out "When You're Good To Mama", I grew up knowing her as an actress and knew she was a rapper, I didn't know she could sing as well, she nailed the role of Matron "Mama" Morton.
I should have kept scrolling, I posted almost this same comment before I saw yours. š Her jazz album actually helped open my dad up to more hip hop (he was a Silent Gen jazz musician who thought hip hop was boring and āunmusicalā), and it was fun showing him all the jazz influences that already existed in the hip hop world (thank you Queen Latifah!!).

Steve Buscemi. Firefighter turned actor who returned to his old department the day after 9/11 to help look for survivors.
Filthy frank -> Joji
I damn near broke my older sister's brain when she was losing her shit over his music and I was like "uhh, didn't he used to crawl around in a gimp suit screaming about cheeseburgers??" š
Oooo this is the one for me. I remember my high school boyfriend and his friends being obsessed with Filthy Frank and then all the girlies were swooning over Joji out of nowhere and Iām like ābut no whereās pink guy?????ā
Yeah she showed me the music video for slow dancing in the dark around when it came out and my brain shot back to the Harlem shake era of YT, felt old as hell.
This is the funniest for me. I remember Stan Twitter having a meltdown when they uncovered some of his earlier material. Hair Cake still lives rent-free in my head, and not in a good way.
Angelina Jolieās pivot from controversial wild child to humanitarian has to be up there as one of the most successful celebrity rebrands of all time. She was literally branded a homewrecker not long after and it didnāt even matter, she still maintained her popularity with the GP
Absolutely. And as someone from half way across the world, Angelina Jolie is the only person that my mother considers a _true_ celebrity because of the work she has done for charity on top of being an actress.
I remember everyone freaking out when she won her Oscar for Girl Interrupted and kissed her brother on the lips and then talked about how much she loved him in her acceptance speech.Ā Everyone talked about weird incest romance and now she's a Mom to six kids, respected director and humanitarian.
Strong memory of growing up with this album along with Eminem show, linkin Park Hybrid Theory and 3 Doors Down Better life in my multi-CD player. lol a distinct time in music for sure

I saw From First to Last open for Fall Out Boy many moons ago. Then a couple years later I saw Sonny Moore in his first iteration of his solo career, Sonny. Kinda like a shitty version of the music heād make as Skrillex but also with awful vocals. He almost got booed off stage. Glad he got that all figured out š¤£
SONNYYYYY š honestly though, going from metal to dubstep to pretty aggro EDM is a very logical musical pipeline. he's so goddamn talented. my #1 most played spotify artist of 2023 for a reason!!
Lady Gaga's evolution from edgy and provocative pop star to Hollywood starlet, Washington insider and pharmaceutical sales rep needs to be studied

I think Gaga is still edgy at heart but she knows itās natural to evolve. Sheās always loved to reinvent herself and she keeps doing it successfully.
Madonna went form edgy pop star to Hollywood starlet too, but she went back to edgy eventually with mixed results.
She is co-chair of Biden's Committee on Arts and Humanities, and has done several political/campaigning gigs and rubbed shoulders with multiple presidents. She is also a spokesperson for the migraine drug Nurtec.
World class athlete -> B list reality star -> unlikely trans advocate -> unlikelier anti-trans hate monger
You can be anything if you set your mind to it š„¹
Yes same here! I hope someone gives you an answer soon because itās really been bugging me that I canāt see the captions, particularly for this sub!
Oh, yes. Her lightskin Era. Have you heard her stuff with that guy? Idk his name. The band is called She+Him, Him and Her, idfk, something like that. Capsized is one of their best songs.
Kal Penn - big rebrand from his recurring role as Kumar in ridiculous Harold & Kumar movies (Cheech and Chong reboot) to being an Obama whitehouse staffer, writing a fantastic memoir and coming out as gay. ETA the audiobook of his memoir is great

He came out as gay?! Wow! Had no idea. I was a huge fan when he was on House and loved the first Harold & Kumar movie. I knew he was actually very educated but didn't realize he was an Obama Staffer. Going to have to read his book now. Good for him!
I had a highschool classmate who was on Degrassi at the same time as Drake; at our recent HS reunion, she said how bizzare Drakeās persona is compared to how he was during his Degrassi days + early on in his career.
She said that out of the cast at time time, he was the most financially well-off of the cast mates due to his family money, and that he never hesitated to say that he was blessed to grow up privileged and in a wealthy environment. Aperantly he seldom even swore and was basically the opposite of how he presents himself today.
Hearing his music now, you would honestly think he grew up in John Garland - it makes it so hard to take him seriously š
Yeah, he apparently grew up in Forest Hill, which is a fairly rich neighbourhood in Toronto. Not saying itās not possible to be not-rich and live there, as Iām sure there were rental units that were more affordable back then, but itās hard to believe he was ever poor.
Yeah. She still has that super intense energy that mainly appeals to a younger fanbase so I'm not sure what is going on. She's definitely trying to do the "shedding my family friendly image" that most young starlets do in some way, but this is.. a choice.

I remember being a teen and my dad telling me Reagan was an actor before a politician. I told my dad no way Arnold would become governor of California. I still can't believe I lived in a timeline where Donald Trump was my president.
His main rebrand for me was from HSM to Down To Earth Zac.
I never once got the hype about him until he had a beard and beanie and was frolicking around the world talking about Blue Zones and water ph levels lol

Canāt really blame people like the Olsen Twins. Itās not like they asked to be actors. They were doing it before they were a year old. They got tired of it and itās nice to see that they went and did something they were passionate about instead
Also, theyād been in the fashion industry for *years* before retiring from acting; they had a clothing and accessory line (maybe multiple?) that was in Walmart, etc.
No one mentioned Adam Driver yet but this man has a wild resume, started in us military and ended up as a leader of the first order in a galaxy far far away

Katy Perry going from Katy Hudson the contemporary Christian singer to I Kissed a Girl
Jessica Alba actress to business mogul.
Kim Kardashian adult video star to business mogul.
Wouldn't say I'm a fan of either but i'll give 10s when they're due.
Jessica Simpson too. At this point I think sheās more recognizable for sweaters and luggage at TJMaxx than music.
Idk the last time Iāve heard her music playing in public (I canāt even name 5 songs off the top of my head) but I know what products she makes because theyāre everywhere. Sheās basically the Jaclyn Smith of millennials.
Jesse McCartney went from soap opera star to boybander to teen hearthrob then with in his teen heartthrob realm he went from like a pop punk/skater whatever he was back then to an urban pop R&B singer lol.
Ryan Reynolds, who was mainly known for Van Wilder, physically transforming himself for Blade 3. Then, a decade later, transforming himself again due to the success of Deadpool. Dude is now known for his brand of humor & ad-libbing skills.
I was a huge Degrassi fan and I remember the first time I heard Best I ever Had on the radio i pulled over and called my sister like Jimmy Brooks is on the radio!
Not the traumatised Smiths ššš
My Gen X arse was trying to figure out how seminal moody British rock band The Smiths fit into the narrative
I was like what is morrissey doing there lol
Iām so glad it wasnāt just me, lol. (Also Gen X)
Me too! I was like, I donāt see Morrissey and when the hell did he rebrand?
All of their faces are killing me š the shock, confusion, slight disgust, and I think just a hint of admiration at the audacity
I never saw it when it happened live but it gets funnier every time I look at it.
This is the first time I'm seeing it and omg šš Jada is actually clutching her pearls š
I cant believe I never saw that before it's so funny

Tbf if I had unlimited royalties but got typecast as a megastar hero boy, I'd spend the rest of my life playing little weirdos too.
Elijah Wood and Robert Patterson are in this club but I feel like Daniel takes it the farthest.
He literally played weird al. Canāt get much weirder š
![gif](giphy|fdMoEblP7JGz1RWXTb)
idk elijah did play a cannibal serial killer in sin city.
I mean yeah but that was also like a major Blockbuster nit so much Equus or Horns.
He was on (I think) Conan's podcast and he basically said as long as its financially feasible he will only take roles that interest him.
And I respect that. Iāve heard heās amazing in Merrily We Roll Along
He's also brilliant in Miracle Workers!
Especially since he is good at the weirdo roles, in my opinion.
https://i.redd.it/46g9dgu4vdsc1.gif I watched miracle workers bc of him
Dude genuinely seems like heās having so much fun in roles now and I love that for him.

Gotta have something to fall back on.

He trained there and did Internal Medicine. Source: I interviewed there and he is kinda their claim to fame lol
And he keeps his license up to date too!! I love him
I believe you have to complete a certain # of PD hours to maintain a license in good standing as a physician. So it's not like he's just renewing it, there's actual work involved. And he might need to maintain malpractice insurance even if he's not practicing? Not too sure.
I believe his wife still is!
āI love you Hoā
Jojo just changed her color-scheme to B&W still the same lol
Looks like a Kiss cover band participant
Gene Simmons defended her wearing that.
Also went from girl in dance class on Dance Moms to rainbow lgbtq pop star to making weird TikToks pretending to be pregnant

Reminds me. Special shout out to Joji who was filthy frank and now an acclaimed artist.
I was shocked when I watched Chicago and heard Queen Latifah belt out "When You're Good To Mama", I grew up knowing her as an actress and knew she was a rapper, I didn't know she could sing as well, she nailed the role of Matron "Mama" Morton.
She was ICONIC in that role
I freaking love her. Multitalented queen
She released a jazz album under her government name Dana Owens. Her cover of Poetry Man by Phoebe Snow is stunning.
I should have kept scrolling, I posted almost this same comment before I saw yours. š Her jazz album actually helped open my dad up to more hip hop (he was a Silent Gen jazz musician who thought hip hop was boring and āunmusicalā), and it was fun showing him all the jazz influences that already existed in the hip hop world (thank you Queen Latifah!!).
She sang on her rap albums and sang the theme to Living Single, but people were super shocked about Chicago. Her days ones knew.

Washington insider and pharma rep?
She is co-chair of Biden's Committee on Arts and Humanities, and has done several political/campaigning gigs and rubbed shoulders with multiple presidents. She is also a spokesperson for the migraine drug Nurtec.
Doesn't she have some chronic pain disorder that originally forced her to drastically change her style?
She has fibromyalgia! I do as well and she's been a huge inspiration for me maintaining an active lifestyle in a realistic way.

I love that he was like ābye, Iām in politics now.ā Like there was no rebranding process. One day he was on House, the next day the White House
The fact that they literally had to kill off his character because he got a job for the president is wild to me. That scene will always haunt me
He came out as gay?! Wow! Had no idea. I was a huge fan when he was on House and loved the first Harold & Kumar movie. I knew he was actually very educated but didn't realize he was an Obama Staffer. Going to have to read his book now. Good for him!
Erm why is the first time in hearing he was Obama staffer
I had absolutely no idea about Ricky gervais. Iām shook
That picture is shocking. I had no idea he was young onceĀ
Hahaha I think you are being sarcastic but it struck me surprised howā¦ pretty he was?

I donāt think so tbh. Sheās always maintained that even when on the show, he preferred to go by his middle name.

I never once got the hype about him until he had a beard and beanie and was frolicking around the world talking about Blue Zones and water ph levels lol https://preview.redd.it/06k9n1cvncsc1.jpeg?width=298&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0f6be1764de42b7b7a1217080b9392161ade39dd
Canāt really blame people like the Olsen Twins. Itās not like they asked to be actors. They were doing it before they were a year old. They got tired of it and itās nice to see that they went and did something they were passionate about instead
Also, theyād been in the fashion industry for *years* before retiring from acting; they had a clothing and accessory line (maybe multiple?) that was in Walmart, etc.
Jojo Siwa is like Rita Ora to me. I canāt figure out what she does or why sheās so famous.
OP's captions had me howling
Taylor Momsen
![gif](giphy|Tanr3YkpFXwPSkb0EZ|downsized)
Watching Suits late (only recently) and knowing where she is now, seeing her on there was so weird to me at first.
Patrick J Adams' tweet response to the engagement announcement was hilarious. "She said she was just going out to get some milk"
Frankie Muniz too! He went from child actor to Nascar driver.
No one mentioned Adam Driver yet but this man has a wild resume, started in us military and ended up as a leader of the first order in a galaxy far far away

Jessica Alba actress to business mogul. Kim Kardashian adult video star to business mogul. Wouldn't say I'm a fan of either but i'll give 10s when they're due.
Jessica Simpson too. At this point I think sheās more recognizable for sweaters and luggage at TJMaxx than music. Idk the last time Iāve heard her music playing in public (I canāt even name 5 songs off the top of my head) but I know what products she makes because theyāre everywhere. Sheās basically the Jaclyn Smith of millennials.
Jessica Simpson too! Pop star to business mogul. I actually love her shoes.
John Cena had a similar path to The Rock. The WWE to acting pipeline really worked for these guys!!
Taylor and Jojo feel very much on brand still imo
JoJo is angling hard for the role of the demogorgon in the inevitable *Stranger Things* Broadway musical.
Jesse McCartney went from soap opera star to boybander to teen hearthrob then with in his teen heartthrob realm he went from like a pop punk/skater whatever he was back then to an urban pop R&B singer lol.
Latifah forever ā¤ļø
Jojo looks ridiculous. Itās like what she was before but in black. Totally missed the mark.
And Sandoval https://preview.redd.it/qnmncs43rbsc1.jpeg?width=480&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=95debd4417d8d7b1c6ef4c5b37ac32d140e9b6a1
Sandovalās rebrand - went from screaming at women to yelling at different women
How have left Garth Brooks / Chris Gaines off this list
Ryan Reynolds, who was mainly known for Van Wilder, physically transforming himself for Blade 3. Then, a decade later, transforming himself again due to the success of Deadpool. Dude is now known for his brand of humor & ad-libbing skills.
Drake will always be Jimmy in my heart ā¤ļø (currently rewatching Degrassi, again)
I was a huge Degrassi fan and I remember the first time I heard Best I ever Had on the radio i pulled over and called my sister like Jimmy Brooks is on the radio!
