The Surprising Career Lacey Chabert Dreamed Of Having
Plenty of actors wait tables on the side while trying to make a name for themselves in the industry. For Lacey Chabert, it was the other way around. In an interview with Seventeen, she acknowledged harboring a desire to work as a waitress in her early years.
Once her sister actually opened her own restaurant, in their home state of Mississippi, Chabert headed down there to provide her services “for a few days.” But, she didn’t stick around, with the “Mean Girls” star noting simply, “Let me tell you, I got it out of my system.”
It seems she was destined to work in front of the camera. “I always wanted to entertain,” Chabert shared. “When I was little, I would sing in front of the mirror with a hairbrush or my sisters and I would make shows. I always wanted to be on TV.”
As Forbes points out, the actor has actually been a fixture on our screens since she was a kid, initially breaking out on “All My Children” in 1992 before kicking off her six-season run on the hit drama “Party of Five” just a couple years later. Lucky for us, waitressing wasn’t for her.
