Elizabeth Banks Reveals She Used to Clean Toilets as Chambermaid Before Hollywood Stardom

by

Elizabeth Banks talked candidly about her humble beginnings, where she took on various jobs before becoming a well-known actress. On The Kelly Clarkson Show, she shared anecdotes of her early life, including working as a waitress and later as a chambermaid at a bed and breakfast, cleaning toilets to earn a living. She admitted that the experience was both surprising and distressing for her but also prepared her for any challenges that might come her way.

As a lover of all things cinematic and an advocate for sustainable living, let me share a personal piece of advice: Much like my character Effie Trinket, I urge you all to think carefully about what you choose to dispose of down your toilets. Instead of flushing away various waste, let’s commit ourselves to being mindful of the environment and ensure that only necessary items find their way into our plumbing systems. Together, we can make a positive impact on our planet one flush at a time!

She suggested, “Here’s some advice for individuals who spend nights in hotels, motels, bed and breakfasts, or any similar places.” Banks also emphasized, “Please refrain from flushing anything other than urine into the toilets. The number of condoms and tampons I had to remove from toilets when I was seventeen leaves me astonished.

Regarding her job history as both a waitress and a chambermaid, the actress went on to elaborate, “Kelly, I have no restrictions in my travels. It’s not all glamorous living this way. You find yourself visiting some very unusual locations, and I often think to myself, ‘I’ve seen places even more chaotic.’

Elizabeth Banks’ kids have no interest in following their mother’s footsteps into the industry

Lately, during an interview with People Magazine, Banks revealed that her children have no interest in joining the entertainment world. Known for her role in Charlie’s Angels, Banks is a mother to two boys, aged 14 and 12, whom she shares with her husband, Max Handleman.

During a chat with a media outlet, the actress shared that her sons currently show no inclination towards acting, but should they ever choose to venture into it, she would be delighted to join any production they might want her involved in.

She said, “If her children eventually choose acting as a career, something they’re not interested in now, I would be overjoyed to collaborate with them if they’d consider spending time with me.” Banks also stated, “It’s highly unlikely. In fact, it would require a paid opportunity for them to even consider spending time with me.

In terms of her professional life, the actress is set to feature in the suspenseful TV series “The Better Sister” along with Jessica Biel. This captivating show is scheduled to premiere on Amazon Prime Video from May 29th.
