10. Jon Hamm was a set dresser for adult films
When Jonathan Daniel Hamm was young and needed a job, a friend introduced him to the oddest of all: a set dresser for adult films. “My friend said, ‘You can have my job. I’m doing set dressing,'” Hamm recalled to Esquire.
“I said, ‘I don’t know how to do that.’ She says, ‘They’ll hire anybody… It’s for these Skinemax … movies.’ Fortunately, Hamm eventually said hello to his famous role as Don Draper in Mad Men, and the rest is history.
