Celebrity is fickle and fleeting. Case in point: a Twitter post went viral after a user posted photos of Amanda Peet, asked if people knew the star by name, and wondered whether she was famous or "super famous." What followed was a discussion of the arc of her career (with some suggesting that her stardom had fizzled out) as well as a passionate defense of the actress by some fans who have continued to follow her work. So what did become of Amanda Peet?
This smart, stunning, and once promising leading lady didn't exactly take the road most traveled by young actresses who make it big in movies, and it seems like that was mostly by design. She might not be "super famous" by Twitter's standards, but she's carved out a career that fits her life and her convictions.
