While living in the lap of luxury in exchange for appearing on television might seem like a good deal to us ordinary folk, some celebs long so much for lives like ours that they willingly swap their fame for a normal/mundane/boring job…
Others, however, find that after their ”fifteen minutes” run out, they are left with no other choice but to return to a ‘simple life’ – cue the Nicole Ritchie/Paris Hilton irony.
All jokes aside, it appears more and more celebrities are leaving the glitz and glam of showbiz behind, for a conventional and (somewhat) ordinary life out of the spotlight.

…but, what we really want to know: have the drastic life changes of these celebs become as an active or a forced choice? Read, learn and deduce for yourselves guys…
