did your fave start from the bottom?

Zayn's family was very poor. That was the whole reason he signed up for XF in the first place: so he would have a way of giving back to his parents, to make it so his mom didn't have to work anymore.

They all started "from the bottom". None of them were born into a famous family (someone like Willow Smith for example). For example, Taylor's family wasn't poor and if I remember correctly her father helped her with her record deal because he had money, but she still had to hustle and work to make herself known. Like Gaga. Her parents helped her out, but ultimately it was her hard work and talent that got her where she is today. Same with Lana who was born into a rich family. So just because some of the girls had an upper hand with money or connections that doesn't mean that they just magically became famous. They still had to work hard for it. I know everyone loves a "rags to riches" story, but there's nothing wrong if a child has loving and supporting parents who help them advance in life. 

Whenever I read about Rihanna's story it kinda gives me the creeps. She met this guy in her teen years (!) and decided to just go live with him (I know she was with her mother but still) into an unknown country. I'm so glad that story had a happy ending, but lawd, I've met so many stories that happened just like hers, but had a tragic ending. "Scouting agents" who look for girls and promise them a career in music, modelling, acting, just to be sent on a plane, forced into prostitution and never to be heard from again.

I mean Lana does come from a wealthy family but even if her father chipped in a bit for a record deal, it's pretty amazing how much she's been able to do. She pretty much invented the whole indie/alternative female tumblr artist becoming successful thing that MANY people have mimicked with varying success rav2 

And even with the fact that she does ZERO promotion for her music and acts like she doesn't care about it at all, she still does quite well sales wise.

Mars Argo started as a low budget YouTuber (the original Poppy) before adding lyrics to her background music and making it into an album in her bedroom with her boyfriend. A few years later, she ended up becoming an actual singer/songwriter and doing studio recorded music. She didn't really get that famous until Poppy showed up and stole her image, but still.
