Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Lawrence, Jim Parsons, Kim Kardashian, LL Cool J: Hollywood Stars Reveal Their Back Up Careers [PHOTOS]

Celebrities always had their minds set to their ultimate dreams of acting, but did you know that they had back up plans, too?

If they didn't end up becoming famous and Hollywood's A-List stars, these celebs had something else they had in mind that they could do, and it some of it isn't something you'd expect.

Entertainment Tonight asked Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Lawrence, Jim Parsons, Kim Kardashian, and LL Cool J what they would be doing if they didn't break into the Hollywood life, and they gave some pretty interesting answers:

Angelina Jolie is undoubtedly a household name and one of the best actresses out there. Not only that, but she's also made it loud and clear how much she loves being a mother. But if she weren't famous for her acting chops, she'd prefer to be a stay-at-home mom.

"I think I'd just be home being a mom more. I love being a mommy. I love my kids so I'd just stay home," said Angelina Jolie.

Jennifer Lawrence also opened up on what she'd like to be if she didn't become an actress - although it something she could probably do only in films.

"I would like to say doctor but I know I don't have the focus for it," she confessed. "So I'd probably be like an out-of-work doctor trying to illegally operate on people," joked Jennifer Lawrence.

Although Kim Kardashian occasionally faces some tough criticisms for her outfits, the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star says she'd stay with the fashion industry if the reality show never happened.

"I would still be in fashion," admitted the new mom-of-two. "I think I would be working in the stores, styling and just designing fashion stuff."

On the other hand, there's "The Big Bang Theory" star Jim Parsons. Although his character doesn't seem to generally like people, the actor says he would be teaching if he wasn't able to act.

"Probably college," Parsons shared on what educational level he would teach if given the chance. "I don't want to mess up a young mind and I don't want to deal with the high school drama."

Probably the most shocking revelation out of the lot is LL Cool J. The "NCIS: Los Angeles" star shared: "Once of my dreams was to be a professional football player... I'm sure I would've been successful and did that and have a couple of rings by now."
