Alyson Hannigan was turned down for a job as a bartender when she couldn't get work as an actress because she looked too young. During a lean period in her acting career, the 33-year-old star took a course and tried to get a job pouring drinks at Hollywood hotspots.

The How I Met Your Mother star tells the New York Post, "I never got hired anywhere. I looked 12. They said, 'Honey, people are just gonna laugh when you try to card them (ask for their identification) - they're gonna want to card you."

I wonder how old she was. She was 22 when she started Buffy and she's been steadily employed since it went off the air
