15 Pairs of Celebrities Were Roommates

Does potential sense potential in others? Does talent recognize talent? Most would say, yes. That work ethic and drive to succeed possessed by some can be readily noticed in others. That has to be it, right? How else can we describe the surprising number of celebrities that bunked together many years before they each hit it big on their own? They certainly weren’t rich and famous back then and most were just struggling to make it just like the rest of us.
The odds of one of a pair of struggling actors hitting it big are rare, but both separately on their own, extremely rare. But somehow they made it. Before they hit it big, they split the rent, scrounged for laundry change, and hustled to make auditions as most struggling actors do. These celebrities knew each other at the ground floor. Some stayed close, others drifted apart; but all were driven to realize their dreams and reach a level of success that most of us only wish we could attain. Most of us know about Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, or Robert Downey Jr. and Kiefer Sutherland, but here on this list some names might surprise you. These are fifteen sets of surprising celebrity roommates.
