A-lister Amy Adams is one of the most riveting actresses of her generation.
TheVicestar oozes a vibe that’s purely relatable.
In which European country was this porcelain-skinned stunner born?
How did she once irritate Whitney Houston?
And why did she finally join Instagram?
This is the untold truth of Amy Adams.
Well, sort of.
She actually briefly worked as a Hooters waitress.
The job wound up being well worth it because Adams got to meet superstar Bono.
“And so all the girls rushed him, and I felt really bad for telling.”
Adams is obviously making much more money nowadays while keeping her shirt on, thankfully but meeting Bono?
In 2016, the actress opened up onTheLate Showabout the problems she experienced growing up with so many siblings.
She noted that she still gets upset if someone tries to take her food to this day.
Adams and Colbert also commiserated about the complicated not to mention unsafe family road trip arrangements.
“Can you imagine how much trouble we’d get in nowadays?
And a gymnastics mat spread across the top where I would sleep,” she added.
Amy Adams once annoyed Whitney Houston while working at Gap
Houston, we have a problem!
One day, music legend Whitney Houston walked into her store… and Adams just couldnotplay it cool.
“There’s something called the Gap Act, where you have to greet.
So, what happened when Houston entered?
“I was like, gotta Gap Act her, you know.
Welcome to the Gap.
Is there anything I can help you with?
Let me tell you about our t-shirts that are on sale,'” she recalled.
She apparently just couldn’t help herself.
“She went back into the dressing room and requested anybody else.
It’s true!”
Don’t take it personally, Amy.
Maybe Whitney just wasn’t in the mood for your bubbly demeanor.
At least we’ll always love you!
We would never have guessed that in a million years!
Amy Adams she’s just like us!
Yikes, that does sound terrifying!
At this time, Adams was not even into acting only dancing.
TheWarticle noted that she “performed with local companies as well as in family talent shows.”
So, what’s the one song she’d probably be caught dancing alone to?
“I want to be a dance mom so bad.
I would love it.”
Unfortunately for Adams, it looks like that’s not going to happen.
However, the mother-daughter duo did seem to reach a fair compromise.
She added, “I want all those things.”
Aviana just isn’t into performing like her mom.
She is actually a strawberry blonde and dyed her hair red for work.
According to an interview withBackstage, she went dark red for an early role inDr.
She noted that it was decided one of them would have to dye their hair.
From there, casting producers began seeing Adams in a different light.
Seems like it worked out!
But that was apparently the case.
“I’d hated school,” she toldWmagazine.
“The people were indifferent toward me, and that’s the worst thing in my mind.”
She then revealed that she even made fake Guess jeans to have a go at fit in.
“It’s so sad that I did that!
But I really wanted to be one of those girls,” she confided.
It wasn’t just about fitting in, however.
The former dancer had trouble with the curriculum as well, and she was apparently bad at math.
“School was hard for me,” Adams toldVanity Fair.
“If there had been a school for the creative arts I might have thrived.”
Well, nowadays she’s schooling Hollywood and laughing all the way to the bank.
We hope your closet is filled with racks and racks of Guess jeans, Amy!
Adams revealed that she started her account to bring awareness to Save the Children and No Kid Hungry charities.
“They just need our help!”
This celebrity inspired Amy Adams to move to L.A.
In an interview withElle, Amy Adams credited actressKirstie Alleyfor inspiring her to make the move to Los Angeles.
You’re young, you’re funny, you’ll probably get work.'
It sounds so silly,” Adams remembered, “but it was all I needed to hear.”
Luckily, they finally made it to L.A. in their rented U-Haul.
“It was an exciting time.
Scary and thrilling.”
“My dad is a singer.
He used to sing in nightclubs, or pizza joints,” Adams toldVanity Fair.
I mean, it was a pizza place, but it had a bar."
The Adams brood apparently sipped onShirley Templesall night and served as their parents' audience!
Adams believes being in those environments helped her and her siblings.
Adams revealed toVanity Fairthat her mother worked and performed in gyms as a semi-professional bodybuilder.
She noted that they’d all gather in the back room of the gym and order pizza.
“There was no day care; there were no babysitters.
We just kind of went where they needed us to be,” theSharp Objectsstar recalled.
After all, look how their daughter turned out!
If the other siblings are anything like her, Adams' mother and father must be some proud parents.
Adams and longtime partner Darren Le Gallo actually met in acting class.
The artist and father of their daughter, Aviana hails from Germany.
“I had another boyfriend, and Darren was dating some girl,” she explained.
Afraid that he wouldn’t “be assertive enough,” Adams never acted on it.
“I was really focused on the classes he was a little scared of me,” she admitted.
Then one day, the then-future lovebirds worked together on a project outside of class.
“I just found him to be such a genuine, caring person.
He demanded that we go out on a date,” Adams revealed.
Their acting coach Warner Loughlin shared his approval.
Darren is a consummate gentleman."
