There are several celebrities who alter their lifestyle drastically as they become famous and rich. They only start traveling by limousine, purchasing luxurious cars or moving into lavish mansions, and attending the most exclusive events. But on the very opposite side, there are those who do not let themselves be overpowered by success, and they adopt a more modest way of life, even though they have several million dollars in their bank accounts. Some of them still continue to do the same things they did before they were internationally well-known.
