9. Nicole Kidman
Nicole Kidman, one of our favorite actresses dropped out of high school at the age of sixteen.
In 1984, her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, and Nicole has found herself in a tight spot. With limited financial resources she had to think about getting a job and helping her mother.
She started working as a massage therapist at age seventeen, but later finished high school along with another, now famous, actress Naomi Watts.
