Celebrities have access to luxuries that the regular person can only dream of, from owning their own yachts and jets to living in some of the grandest homes in the world. With the fast-paced lifestyles that they lead, do celebrities still have room for other things? Well, truth is, many of them do and it might surprise you to learn what some of your favorite stars do outside of the spotlight.
Some of them have rather quirky hobbies that might make you rethink your own. Others spend most of their time growing their businesses and investments. Even the industry’s wealthiest have to maintain their wealth, right? In fact, many of them support start-ups, whether that be in technology or lifestyle. You may not know it, but one of them might be the genius behind your favorite sportswear or your favorite video games!Read on to learn more about what the biggest names in film and music do when they are away from the spotlight.
Adam Sandler
Adam Sandler is Hollywood’s go-to-guy when it comes to portraying comedic but endearing characters on film. Over the years, he has had a string of successful films, which has also led to quite a degree of wealth for the actor. Ever the businessman, he put that money to good use by establishing Happy Madison. The actor devotes quite a lot of his free time to really developing his production company’s projects, including The House Bunny, Joe Dirt, Grandma’s Boy, and Zookeper. While it has been a hit or miss for them, so far, there’s no denying that they have people’s attention.
In fact, Netflix themselves are taking notice of Happy Madison’s work. The streaming company has signed a multi-movie contract with them, so you can expect to see more of Sandler and his signature comedy style on Netflix in the coming years!
Anna Faris
Anna Faris might be best known for her comedic roles in movies, but this actress is certainly not a one-note star. Aside from acting, did you know that she is also a published author and podcaster? Faris is currently the host of Unqualified, which is a podcast focused on providing advice for those in need. The show’s guests range from known celebrities to cultural figures. Through it, she also gets to interact with her listeners through phone calls, allowing them to personally ask Faris and her guests for advice on various subjects.
Faris has also penned a book of the same name. Her memoir was published back in 2017, which offered a glimpse into the actress’ life and all that she has learned from her experiences. If you’re looking for a fun read and lessons that you won’t be able to learn from online classes, give Faris’ book a try!
Anne Hathaway
We know Anne Hathaway for her varied roles in film, ranging from comedic to dramatic. She is one of the industry’s most versatile and in-demand stars, but even an actress as busy as her has enough room in her schedule for some new hobbies. After all, it is never too later to pick up something new and learn a new skill! In her case, she recently got to learn how to play the ukulele. Through it, she was also able to learn how to channel her drive and passion towards things that are not related to her professional life. Needless to say, we’re glad she found a great way to relax.
Hathaway has been working since her mid-teens, so getting to take some time off to do things for herself must certainly be a treat. It may not be a huge investment, but we don’t doubt that it benefits her greatly.
Ariana Grande
She is currently one of the busiest artists in music, so doesn’t it make you wonder what Ariana Grande does when she’s not in the spotlight? Well, what we know for certain is that she won’t be hanging out with cats anytime soon considering she is allergic to them! Instead, Grande has admitted to having very “nerdy” hobbies. She is a big fan of the fantasy films and when she’s not touring, prefers to stay at home to watch Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings.
Her love for the fantasy genre also extends to the things that interest the singer. Grande has confessed that she loves ghosts, aliens, and science in general. This is quite contrary to the party-going image she has, right? Well, given the electricity she delivers when performing, we totally understand why she would rather spend her free time relaxing at home.
Ashton Kutcher
Actor Ashton Kutcher may have cultivated the image of a happy-go-lucky character thanks to the roles he usually plays, but he is actually a business genius behind the scenes! From starring in the sitcom That 70’s Show, which was followed by the cult favorite Dude, Where’s My Car?, to hosting his own MTV show Punk’d for years—Kutcher is now making a name for himself in the field of entrepreneurship. What does this mean exactly?
It is no secret that Kutcher is neck-deep when it comes to venture capital. Since 2017, he invested in a total of five different startups, including Kopari Beauty, Neighborly, Lemonade, Zenreach, and ResearchGate. Aside from these, he is also co-founder of A-Grade investments. So while you may not see him as often in TV or film, you can rest easy that the actor is doing well for himself financially.
Beyoncé
Is there anything Beyoncé cannot do? She is one of the biggest artists, with multiple chart-toppers to her name, sold-out tours, and millions of albums sold worldwide. The artist has even tried her hand in acting, receiving positive reviews for her performances in Dreamgirls, The Pink Panther, and Cadillac Records. Did we mention she also has a very successful personal life? One might wonder where she gets the energy to handle everything on her plate.
This is especially so if you consider the fact that she also owns her own entertainment company, Parkwood Entertainment. She also handles designs and marketing for Ivy Park, which is the line of activewear clothing she initially launched in collaboration with Topshop. It’s quite amazing how much investment planning she has done over the years, but considering her impressive focus and discipline, it certainly isn’t surprising!
Blake Lively
We were introduced to actress Blake Lively through her role in the CW series Gossip Girl, where she played NYC socialite Serene van der Woodsen. Since then, she has starred in a variety of other projects, including The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, Green Lantern, The Private Lives of Pippa Lee, The Shallows, and The Age of Adaline. Her roles have ranged from romantic to comedic lead, and she has even tried her hand at being an action heroine.
When she isn’t lighting up the big screen, however, Lively focuses on her family and the interesting hobbies she has. She has your usual ones like cooking, and is known to have even apprenticed with world famous chefs for the fun of it. Architectural Digest has also revealed that the actress has a side job and redesigns her friends’ homes for no charge at all. Needless to say, she deserves credit for always challenging herself and learning something new!
Brad Pitt
The thing with Brad Pitt is that he is known to try many new things. We know that he took time off to learn how to fly a plane and even owns a WWII warbird due to his love for history. However, one of the most unusual hobbies he has is sculpting. Now, according to reports, there is a very good reason as to why Pitt has maintained this particularly benign hobby. Considering all the thrilling adventures he has been on, sculpting helps ground the actor.
It was in 2017 when we first heard about Pitt engaging in his new artistic outlet. In an interview, he spoke about his friend Thomas Houseago who is a sculptor. The actor frequents Houseago’s studio, even joking about squatting in it for close to a month due to the degree of passion he has for the craft!
Bradley Cooper
Bradley Cooper is known to be quite the all-rounder. He isn’t just a great actor and director; he also has plenty of other talents and hobbies that will impress anyone. For example, did you know that he was once a member of his school’s rowing team? Even his former rowing coach says that his passion for the sport is so fierce and that his determination shouldn’t be underestimated. We can’t help but agree, considering the actor’s career history! While he may no longer be rowing regularly, he has found other activities to fill his free time.
For example, Cooper is a very enthusiastic cook. Growing up in an Italian family has helped him pick up a few tricks and techniques, but it was up to him to become a gourmet cook! He even designed his own kitchen from scratch to make sure his investments in it are all up to standard.
Amanda Seyfried
She danced and sang her way to her hearts in the film Mamma Mia! and endeared herself to us with her performances in films such as Letters to Juliet, but did you know that actress Amanda Seyfried is just as lovable in real life? It’s safe to say that she is one of the most relatable actresses in Hollywood, no matter how popular she gets.
During her free time, Seyfried is known to knit up a storm. She can create baby booties and hats with ease. The actress considers this activity therapeutic. Aside from her knitting hobby, Seyfried is also known to collect taxidermy. We wonder how her financial advisor feels about this particular expense. After all, she has collected quite a few of them over the years. Her collection includes butterflies, a fox, a baby horse, and even a hybrid deer!
Cameron Diaz
In 2013, Cameron Diaz was named as one of the highest-paid actresses of her generation. Since then, however, she has chosen a quieter life by retiring from the industry. This big change preceded the birth of her daughter, Raddix Madden. Now that she’s a mother, it’s easy to see why she has chosen a lifestyle that will not require her to be away from family for long periods of time. Instead, she chose money management and went into entrepreneurship.
In 2020, Diaz celebrated the launch of Avaline, her new line of wines. According to the company’s social media page, “Avaline produces wine at its purest”. In an interview, she talked about the first collection of mini wines, which she was able to launch with the help of Avaline’s co-founder, Katherine Power. If their social media is any indication of their business’ success, then it’s clear that many are loving it!
Chris Hemsworth
Few will argue with the fact Chris Hemsworth is one of today’s biggest stars, from his role as Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to taking over Will Smith’s spot in Men in Black. These achievements are all well-deserved, of course, considering how versatile and talented he is. But with so many projects on his plate, we do wonder what he does during his free time. Does he just sleep all day or does the actor prefer working out instead?
Well, when it comes to his life outside of the spotlight, Hemsworth is known to spend most of it with his wife and their three children. Thanks to his hard work, he has no need of loans for the rest of his life. He has also gone into business and spearheaded the development of Centr, a fitness app that connects people with his own team of experts.
Chris Pratt
It seems that many actors these days are avoiding putting all of their eggs in one basket, so to speak. Chris Pratt is just one of those who have chosen to diversify their portfolio by making investments and going into business. In 2020, he announced the launch of Indivisible Productions. Through his new production company, the actor seeks to further spread his message of peace. As part of the launch, he took fans to a tour of the company’s offices and also detailed his plans for his new company’s future. It’s really exciting, isn’t it?
He didn’t offer any other details or if the production company has projects to be released soon. Insiders do believe that considering the tone of Pratt’s post and introduction to the company, it is bound to focus more on faith-based projects or ones following a similar theme. Nonetheless, we’re sure his fans are more than excited for this new venture!
Tom Hanks
Tom Hanks is considered by many to be one of the most wholesome actors in the business. Interestingly, he is also among the most versatile. He has the ability to portray many different characters. Just take a look at his performances in the films Forrest Gump, The Da Vinci Code, Larry Crowne, The Post, A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, and Bridge of Spies. While he may have slowed down in recent years and is focusing more on his family, he still remains one of the biggest names in the industry.
This is why many would assume that he also has luxurious hobbies. Contrary to that, however, what the actor enjoys the most is collecting vintage typewriters! He got his first model when he was only 19 years old, and to date, he has over 250+ in his collection. Hanks plans on eventually giving them away and leaving only one for himself. We hope he has purchased insurance for his collection!
Cindy Crawford
As one of the supermodels in her time, Cindy Crawford gained international fame, which led to her acting ventures and business investments. She has partnered with the multinational cosmetics skincare brand Revlon since 1991 up to the present time, endorsing the products and gracing countless covers for their magazine.
Given the situation globally, people are mostly indoors with their families. On the flip side, they’re able to spend more time with them. Recently, Cindy and her family had a lakeside summer vacation, sharing snapshots of their fun getaway. In the picture, her husband, Randy Gerber, and two children, Presley and Kaia, are seen on their inflatable floats on a vast, blue lake.

Early this year, she and her husband retired NBA superstar Dwayne Wade, listed their Los Angeles property in the market for $6 million. However, the couple still finds the time to spend some quality time together taking vacations on a yacht. Gabrielle also likes to buy things she loves, like Chrissy Teigen’s 1.8-quart sand glass pitcher, Lauren Napier’s Cleanse cleaning wipes, Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty foundation, Lila Nikole’s bikini, Pat McGrath Labs lipstick, and Bole Road Textiles’ pouch—to mention a few.

The couple also has a boutique hotel in Tel Aviv, which they eventually sold to the Russian-Israeli billionaire businessman Roman Abramovich for $26 million.

Recently, she launched a wellness book titled Intuitive Fasting, which is currently available on online stores like Amazon. Gwyneth has written several books years ago and continues to do so over the years.
Halle Berry
Most celebrities are currently spending most of their time at home, as with other people, due to the pandemic that’s happening globally. Halle Berry seems to be enjoying the time off from her profession’s busy nature, which is evident in the photos and videos uploaded by the actress. At the same time, it’s clear that Halle has been working out, as shown in her fit body and flat tummy. With two children, her physical exercises didn’t take a backseat.

With less time to work on Hollywood projects and more time to spend tinkering on business investments, Jada Pinkett-Smith and her family seem to have found one. Recently this year, they launched the eco-friendly bath and body care products brand Hey Humans at Target malls. The product lines are all toxic-free, and the materials are recyclable, like paper and aluminum. Some of the products are body wash, deodorant, and body lotion. Will and Jada are also co-founders of Westbrook Entertainment, which produced the highly controversial talk show Red Table Talk where Jada is hosting.
Furthermore, inspired by her daughter Willow, Jada shared a video of her yoga tricks on the social media platform Instagram—perhaps picked up as a pandemic hobby.

His newfound passion has changed his fitness routine and his life for the better—credit to surfing.
In the past, while working on two projects, the actor shared that he only ate salad for lunch and dinner and put protein on top like tofu. He shared that he gets the majority of his exercises through surfing. According to him, it taught him lessons in life, metaphorically speaking, being out in the large body of water just floating and forced to surrender and submit to something bigger. He added that it forced him to be present.
Jennifer Aniston
Some good can come out amid the pandemic our world is experiencing right now—Jennifer Aniston has rekindled her passion for painting. The Hollywood sweetheart shared about her painting hobby in a video she recently uploaded on Instagram from her Beverly Hills residence. Aniston’s painting is a colorful frog on a framed white canvass.
Aniston also loves to post a photo of her dogs which she fondly calls Clyde, a Schnauzer mix, and Sophie, a white pit bull. With so much time at home, she clearly enjoys most of her time cuddling and playing with the dogs. In a video uploaded by Aniston, she’s seen playing a game of pool with her close friend and Friends co-star Courteney Cox. It seems that Aniston certainly needs a lot more practice compared to Courteney—online classes for pool lessons are helpful on this one.
Jennifer Garner
Taking a break from parenting tasks or work can give celebrity moms a much-needed respite, like making a DIY backyard dunk tank—Jennifer Garner did. The actress has posted a video showing her cutting planks of wood, cutting, and building the dunk tank using a white bucket. After setting it up above on a playhouse, someone then threw the ball, hitting the target and eventually splashing Garner with a bucketful of water.
Over the years, Garner has been the ambassador for the Connecticut-based non-profit organization Save the Children and launched a line of do-it-yourself kits for kids with Jo-An Fabrics called We Made It. It inspires kids to sew and paint, make costumes, garden, or even bake cakes. Garner has also been fascinated with farming.

On her farm, she planted blueberries and persimmon trees—she has done a great degree of accomplishment on her farm.

Aside from her superb acting talent, Jennifer Lawrence is also a good cook. People started asking for her chicken recipe online after a photo of Lawrence cooking the chicken in the kitchen was uploaded. In one article online, someone asked her about the recipe, which Lawrence unconditionally shared. Since then, a lot of people have tried and posted their version of the recipe.
When Lawrence is not busy with projects, she usually spends time with her dog with regular walking in the neighborhood. It’s also reported that she loves painting and knitting sweaters and scarves. Surfing is also one of her favorite hobbies. In addition, she plays the guitar for her friends and family. With a successful career and business ventures, Lawrence surely wouldn’t need any personal loans anytime soon. Kidding aside, she certainly achieved a tremendous accomplishment in the entertainment industry.
Jennifer Lopez
Jennifer Lopez is known to be a busy celebrity, with numerous projects here and there. However, she has appreciated the time off due to the pandemic, having plenty of time for self-care. While exercise, meditation, and therapy are among her top self-care practices, she’s also been enjoying taking the time for little things like soaking her skin with a mask. Lopez thinks of those little things as a luxury now that she has more time to indulge herself.
Aside from self-care routines, Lopez is also grateful despite the pandemic because she can spend more quality time with her children, which was not possible with their lifestyles before.

Despite her busy schedule, the actress makes it a point to enjoy her private life. Some of her hobbies include cooking and watching various sporting events. Interestingly, she is a big fan of the outdoors as she is an avid fan of snowboarding, swimming, or simply going out for a short run. Not surprisingly, she’s incredibly vocal about taking care of the earth and creating a more sustainable environment. She’s undoubtedly a role model and inspiration to us all!

Who could forget Jim Parsons’ credit role as “Sheldon Cooper” in the hit television show The Big Bang Theory? Parsons played the part for 12 years, and he’s received various awards and recognition for his performance, including four Primetime Emmys. Parsons also has a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Television Series. Besides acting, he is also a producer, and he’s worked on a couple of significant projects over the past few years.
Parsons is undoubtedly a busy person, and it amazes us that he still finds time to enjoy himself whenever he’s not working. Whenever the actor isn’t working, he often spends time with his husband, Todd Spiewak. Jim and Todd are one of the most adorable couples in Hollywood today, and they’re often spotted getting coffee and taking the dogs out, which Jim says is a regular life and boring love.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
You probably have seen Joseph Gordon-Levitt in the 2009 film 500 Days of Summer. Besides his iconic performance in the film, he’s also appeared in other films such as 50/50, Inception, The Walk, and many more!

Whenever she isn’t working on a set, she often spends her time and resources with UNICEF. Roberts has been known to cultivate a long-running partnership with UNICEF in putting together various charitable causes. Without a doubt, she is one of the busiest actresses in the industry today. It’s quite amazing that she still has time to work on a few hobbies and passion projects. Interestingly, the Pretty Woman star likes to knit during her free time. It’s certainly not a glamorous hobby, but we’re confident that it brings her peace amidst her hectic schedule.
Justin Timberlake
Who could forget Justin Timberlake’s time when he was one of the two lead vocalists of the hit boy band NSYNC? The band is one of the best-selling boy bands of all time, and when they broke up, Justin managed to cultivate an extremely successful solo career of his own. He’s released numerous studio albums as a solo performer, and he’s achieved several awards, including two Grammy Awards for his debut solo album.
Besides a successful music career, Justin often spends his time as a giant basketball fan. He plays basketball himself, and he’s quite good at it. The only difference between a regular sports fan and him is that “JT” owns an NBA team. Justin is part-owner of the Memphis Grizzlies, and he’s often spotted at their games. It’s certainly an excellent investment considering how big of a basketball fan he is.
Kaley Cuoco
You most probably know Kaley Cuoco for her credit role as “Penny” in the hit television sitcom The Big Bang Theory. Besides TV series, Cuoco also appeared in television shows like 7th Heaven, Ladies Man, Charmed, 8 Simple Rules, and many others. Of course, she also had quite a successful film career as she landed spots in films like Cougar Club, The Penthouse, and Debating Robert Lee. Besides acting, she has several philanthropic efforts together with her billionaire husband, Karl Cook.
Cuoco’s an actress who likes to spend her spare time quite actively. She’s an incredibly gifted tennis player. Interestingly, she was a nationally ranked amateur tennis player before she started acting. Best believe that it’ll be quite tough to beat her in a game of tennis. She also loves to hike, run, go to the gym, ride horses, and play with her rescue dogs. She’s quite versatile, and we’re wondering if there’s anything that she can’t do?
Kate Winslet
Kate Winslet is a well-known American actress who skyrocketed to fame after starring in the 1997 film Titanic. She played the role of “Rose Dewitt Bukater” alongside her friend Leonardo DiCaprio. Due to her performance in the iconic film, Winslet easily landed several acting credits on various film projects throughout the next few years. There’s no doubt that she is one of the most decorated performers of the modern film industry, and she’s one of the few who has an Emmy, an Academy, and Grammy Award to her name.
Winslet is one actress who has quite an eccentric hobby. While filming for the movie Ammonite, the Titanic star managed to become an expert on everything about paleontology. She learned the craft together with a team of professional paleontologists. She has already unearthed a piece of extinct marine reptile. She also says that she has been able to find a piece of an ichthyosaur’s skull and easily identified it.

Perry is one of the best-selling music artists worldwide today, and she’s also a judge on American Idol.
Perry is one celebrity who has quite an odd hobby. You’d think that she’d be into doing incredibly eccentric stuff, but interestingly, she’s a big crochet fan. She credits herself as “the biggest nana on the block” when she’s asked about crocheting. She also said that she’d look forward to the yarn section rather than the designer clothes area. We support her passion for crocheting, but you’d have to admit that it’s quite a contrast to her on-screen personality, right?
Leonardo DiCaprio
Leonardo DiCaprio is one of the most recognizable actors in Hollywood today. He has acting credits in countless films, all of which have grossed over $7.2 billion worldwide. He’s best known for starring in films like Titanic, The Wolf of Wallstreet, Catch Me If You Can, and many more.

While filming for the movie Once Upon A Time in Hollywood, Leo developed quite a strange and creative hobby alongside his co-star Brad Pitt. The two admitted that filming the movie has been quite exhausting for them and that they’ve spent time together through pottery. Who would’ve known that the two stereotypes for manliness were striking up a friendship through pottery?

Besides his work as an actor, he is also a successful screenwriter, film producer, and even a philanthropist. Matt is one of the highest-grossing and highest-paid actors of all time.

Matt is undoubtedly an impressive actor and performer. Off the screen, he’s quite a modest man. He loves to engage himself in ball games, and he’s a big baseball fan. He often watches his favorite team, the Boston Red Sox. He also makes it a point to spend time with his family, and that music, acting, and philanthropy are all secondary to him.
Meryl Streep
