Then and Now: A Glimpse into Celebrities' School Days
Naomi Watts
At the age of 18, Naomi Watts made a bold decision to pursue a career in modeling. After signing with a modeling agency, she was relocated to Japan, where she hoped to find success in the fashion industry. However, after experiencing a series of unsuccessful auditions, Naomi returned to Sydney, realizing that modeling might not be her true calling.
Back in Australia, she landed a job in a department store advertisement, which caught the attention of the magazine Follow Me. This opportunity led her to become an assistant fashion editor, allowing her to explore her creative side in a different capacity. Yet, Naomi's passion for performance lingered in the background.
Everything changed when she received an unexpected offer to participate in a drama workshop. This invitation ignited her desire to act, prompting her to leave her editorial role and fully commit to pursuing a career in acting. This decision would ultimately set her on a path to becoming one of Hollywood's most respected actresses.
