Aside from being one of the most popular sitcoms in history, The Big Bang Theory also featured some of the highest-paid television stars in the world. You’ll be astonished to learn what these celebrities look like in their everyday lives…
Howard Wolowitz
Howard Wolowitz was able to achieve success despite having “only” a master’s degree from MIT. He went on to become an astronaut and an aerospace engineer. The first few episodes of the sitcom showed Howard’s love life to be a bit of a failure—that is, until Penny introduced him to her coworker, Bernadette, who would go on to become the mother of his children. The initial attraction between the two sprang from their shared disdain for their overbearing mothers.
Played By Simon Helberg
Simon Helberg has been a part of the cast of The Big Bang Theory since its inception. His performance of Wolowitz on the show earned him a Critics’ Choice Award, which he presented to the actor in person. Later, he was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for his performance as Cosmé McMoon in the film Florence Foster Jenkins (2016).
