What the Hell Happened to Hilary Swank?

In 1997, Swank joined the cast of the hit TV show, Beverly Hills 90210. She was cast as a single mother and was promised a two-year stint on the long-running show. But Swank was written off the show after only 16 episodes.

Swank took the firing hard. And with good reason. This was a show that had yet to fire Ian Ziering. If Ziering was good enough to stay on the show for 8 years and counting, what did it say about Swank that she was fired after 16 weeks? Swank later admitted that her confidence was shaken. ”If I’m not good enough for 90210, I’m not good enough for anything.”

You really can’t fault her reasoning. But it turns out you can’t keep a karate kid down… unless he’s Ralph Macchio in which case puberty proved to be the knock out blow.
