8. Sarah Michelle Gellar
Sarah Michelle Gellar’s showbiz journey began at a tender age—five. During a restaurant playdate, an agent approached her, sparking her TV dreams. She boldly shared her phone number, leading to a life-changing call a week later.
Reflecting on her youth, a charming old headshot surfaced, prompting the interviewer to jest, “Hire her!” Sarah proudly remembered reciting her phone number, even in the rotary landline era. Her early career highlight involved a groundbreaking Burger King commercial, humorously poking fun at McDonald’s. Despite the legal fallout, her NYC childhood was marked by irony, as she couldn’t attend McDonald’s-themed birthday parties.
