Actress Jenna Dewan had her big break with 'Step Up,' but before that she was a professional dancer who worked as a back-up dancer for Justin Timberlake.

The star of 'Scandal,' Katie Lowes, used to work as a nanny for actress Connie Britton. The working relationship was only fleeting, however, because Lowes was soon cast in her career-making role.
