Ken Jeong used to be a doctor! He was a pre-med major at Duke University. He went to UNC-Chapel Hill for medical school then practiced medicine for several years before going into acting full-time. Taking a drama class sophomore year inspired him to double major in drama, but he ultimately dropped the idea on his dad’s advice. However, his dad gave him an ultimatum — if he got into medical school, he’d “give him the opportunity to develop his hobby and go anywhere in the world to develop his hobby.” Ken continued doing college theater on the side, then during the summer between undergrad and medical school, his dad paid for him to take theater classes at UCLA.

It’s been reported that Jason Momoa won Hawaii’s Model of the Year contest in 1999, but he actually “made that shit up.” He told Square Mile, “When I was in Hawaii, I went to a casting call for Baywatch Hawaii – it was basically like a cattle call for 1,300 people. I got there, and seven hours later, when I finally got to the front of the line, they said, ‘Oh, you’ve got to have a resume.’ I was like, ‘Oh yeah, well, I don’t have one.’ They were like, ‘Dude, have you ever acted?’ I was like, ‘No,’ and they were like, ‘Have you modeled?’ I was like, ‘Yeah, yeah, I’m a big model. I do Gucci and Louis Vuitton.”

He continued, “And I’m looking at my friend, and I’m like, ‘You did Prada, right?’ And he’s like, ‘Yeah, yeah, we did that in Japan.’ So we were just kind of making it up on the spot…Yeah, we just kind of bullshitted our way in, and then I met some managers down there; they kind of made up some stuff for me, like, ‘Hawaii Model of the Year’. We basically just did head shots of me and said, ‘Hey he’s the model of the year.’ We just made it up…Well, it kind of stayed on there. It’s like, when I finished Baywatch, all I had was Baywatch, and you’ve got to have something more credible. So we just left it on.”

Lana Condor made a “no dating each other” pact with her To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before costar Noah Centineo. She told The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, “We had just got back from a hot yoga class, and we went to his apartment and we ordered pizza. And it’s kinda like, ‘Oh, hot yoga, pizza, what’s happening?’ It was right before we shot the movie — just getting to know each other. And I felt something…I said, ‘Noah, it’s not going to happen between us.’ Because I felt that, for the show to do well, we had to be best friend professionals…We kind of did what we did in To All The Boys, the movie. We made a contract and set boundaries. I’m so happy that we did that, because the movie turned out great.”

5.

In The Acolyte, Manny Jacinto’s secondary role, The Stranger, was originally meant to be significantly smaller. Showrunner Leslye Headland told Inverse, “This is an interesting tidbit: Originally, even up until shooting, The Stranger was not in a lot of the rest of the season. He was much more of a tee-up for a second season arc. But I saw Manny’s screen test early on in pre-production, and I just thought, ‘There will be riots in the streets if I don’t [go further]. Here we go. I guess I’m rewriting an episode.’ Manny was so impressive in every aspect.”

6.

Taika Waititi’s legal name is actually Taika Cohen. Cohen is his mother’s last name, and Waiti is his father’s. He told Cultural Daily, “It’s really because — both my parents are in the arts. My mother is a writer and a schoolteacher; my father is a painter. Growing up I was doing a lot of acting and stuff. And because Cohen is on my passport, I would use Cohen through school, and I was known as Taika Cohen. And then, when I went to live with my dad on that side of the family, I was known as Waititi. So I always used both names throughout my life according to where I was living.”

“As a painter, I often felt like that was more the Waititi side of myself; I would be Taika Waititi as the painter. And then, because I made my first short film in that area where I was known as Waititi, that was the name that was put on the film. And that film did really well and suddenly I had a career as a filmmaker, and now everyone knows me as Waititi. It’s not like I’m running away from Cohen or anything, it just happened. And I’m still Taika Cohen on all my of legal documents,” he said.

8.

Michelle Yeoh’s Oscar-winning role in Everything Everywhere All at Once was originally written for Jackie Chan. She told CNN, “It was written for a man when [directors Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert] set out to do this. They wrote it that way, with Jackie, and me as the wife. So, the roles were completely reversed. I remember Jackie texting me and saying, ‘Congratulations! You know your boys came to see me first. I’m like, ‘Thank you, bro, you did me a huge favor.'”

9.

When Jackie Chan was a kid, his parents fled to Hong Kong, abandoning him and his siblings in mainland China. Through research for the documentary Traces of a Dragon: Jackie Chan and His Lost Family, he discovered that his dad had been a gang leader and Nationalist spy, and his mom had been a well-known gambler, opium smuggler, and part of Shanghai’s underworld. As part of the documentary, he got to meet his dad, who told him that he met his mom when he arrested her for drug smuggling. Jackie also learned of his two half-brothers and two half-sisters.

10.

Unlike her The Suite Life of Zack and Cody character, Brenda Song is super smart in real life — in fact, she got into Harvard at only 15! However, she turned it down to take the role of London Tipton. She told W Magazine, “My mom got breast cancer for the first time, I booked Suite Life, and I was accepted into the college I’d always wanted to go to. My dad, who’s a schoolteacher, sat me down and said, ‘Here’s the thing. You have an amazing opportunity if acting is what you want to do. Education is the most important thing. You go to college to figure out what you want to do, but if this is what you want to do, you have an opportunity to do it.”

Mitski loves ghost stories. She told Dazed, “I’ve loved them since I was a kid. When I was a kid, I used to collect them, and then I would go to my classmates and be like, ‘Do you wanna hear a ghost story?’ And they’d be like, ‘No.’ The one that scared me the most was ‘Toire no Hanako-san,’ which is — Hanko is a Japanese girl’s name, and it’s just about the girl in the toilet. It’s never explained why there is a girl ghost in the bathroom, and she just haunts the toilet. And it’s really scary when you’re a kid, and you’re going to the bathroom alone. And you’re just alone in the toilet stall and thinking, ‘There’s gonna be a ghost!’ I used to think, like, a hand would come out of the toilet bowl and just grab my butt. I don’t know what it would do once it grabbed my butt, but I was afraid of the grabbing.”

24.

Constnce Wu has a pet bunny named Lida Rose. She told Refinery 29, “Bunnies are kind of like cats: They groom themselves. But you don’t want them to swallow too much hair because, unlike a cat, the bunnies don’t have hairballs, they can’t spit it up. I’ll brush her with a flea comb, not because she has fleas, but just because it gets the excess hair out. She pretty much keeps herself clean. I might give her a bath once every six months or so, but she’s pretty low-maintenance in terms of cleanliness…. She’s got a litter box and everything — just like a cat.”

26.

At the beginning of her career, Drew Afualo worked for the NFL, creating social media content meant to appeal to women. She told Onward State, “I emphasized sports [in college] because I wanted to be one of the few women to go into sports journalism. Specifically, I was trying to re-gentrify the space.” However, she was allegedly let go because they thought she couldn’t bring in a large following — which obviously couldn’t be more wrong! Drew said, “Man, I love being right, but even in that specific instance, it was ironic because I really was meant to target women, and I clearly know how to target women.”

30.

Jameela Jamil’s first “big splurge” was a three-day trip to Paris with her roommate — but she made a surprising fashion choice. She told Elle, “But sadly, at the time, I had agreed for charity to wear a chicken costume for 30 days…For every £1,000 I raised, I was gonna wear a chicken suit for that £1,000. And so, unfortunately, on my first, like, trip to Paris, I had to go dressed fully as a chicken. And they could not be snobbier. Like, they couldn’t be, like, less up for a chicken suit in, like Paris.”

33.

Dev Patel’s film Monkey Man was largely filmed on an island in Indonesia with the crew in a “bubble” during the pandemic. Such a location challenged him to do a lot of creative problem solving, such as occasionally using GoPros and his cellphone to film. He also attached a camera to a rope to swing it over a crowd. On the day he used the rope, a studio exec was visiting set, so Dev tasked Jomon Thomas, his producing partner, with distracting him. Dev told Rolling Stone, “[It] wasn’t something that I think that person would have signed off on.”

37.

Hayley Kiyoko’s parents have really interesting jobs! Her mom, Sarah Kawahara, is a figure skater-turned-ice skating choreographer. She won two Emmy Awards for Outstanding Choreography – the first in 1997 for Scott Hamilton: Upside Down, and the second in 2002 for the Opening Ceremony of the 2002 Olympic Winter Games. She was also Margot Robbie’s skating coach for I, Tonya. Hayley’s dad, Jamie Alcroft, is an actor/comedian who was one-half of the comedy duo Mack & Jamie. He’s also known for his voice acting works in video games, TV, and movies.

39.

When Barbie made Fifth Harmony dolls, Dinah Jane’s doll was the first modern Polynesian Barbie. On the Real Gems With Erin Ashley Simon podcast, she said, “All my first cousins, all my girl cousins, were like, ‘Oh my gosh, I have a Dinah Jane Barbie. I wanna be Dinah!’ And just hearing that made me so proud to be Tongan, just to be an Islander. I knew it wasn’t just me, but other younger Islander girls who were proud to be like, ‘That’s me.’ Just to see that for myself and hear it for myself, it made me realize, ‘Damn. I definitely have responsibility here, and I’m sticking to it.'”

40.

And finally, despite being allergic to cats, Auli’i Cravalho has a rescue cat named Rocco, whom she walks on a leash. She told Just Jared Jr., “I take road trips with my cat Rocco. I adopted Rocco from a publicist friend of mine who found him under her house! After nearly a year of him climbing my curtains and eating everything he could (carpet, clothing, shoe strings, plants, paper, etc.), I realized he needed more stimulation and exercise than just the toys at home. Now we go to the park, he walks on a leash, and he travels across state (and international) lines with me! And, most importantly, he sleeps through the night – lol.”
