You might not be able to look at a picture of him without hearing him say 'Mr. White,' but there's no doubting that Idaho's Aaron Paul is one of the most recognizable faces on television. He's best-known for playing Jesse Pinkman in the smash-hit TV show 'Breaking Bad,' but there's been far more to Paul's career than that. In years to come, we might even say that he used 'Breaking Bad' as a launchpad to bigger things.
Paul broke into Hollywood the old-school way. He completed high school at home in Emmett, Idaho, and then packed up his Toyota Corolla and drove to Los Angeles with nothing more than his car and $6,000 to his name. While he was waiting for fame to come and find him, he worked as an usher at Hollywood's Universal Studios, and also starred in TV commercials for Coca Cola Vanilla, and Corn Pops.
