Celebrities usually don’t have a lot of free time.
They have super busy schedules, tons of work to do, and if they’re taking a break they’re usually off vacationing or laying back to relax from all the public press. But during their breaks and moments of leisure, some celebs put their energy into some unique and fun hobbies!
Need some inspo? We’ve compiled a list of some celebrity hobbies that might surprise you the most!
Margot Robbie
Margot Robbie isn’t just an actress — she’s a tattoo artist!
The Barbie star has four tattoos of her own, but she’s given way more tattoos than she’s received. According to her, she’s given nearly A HUNDRED tattoos to her pals and co-stars, even some crew members like when she tattooed a worker on The Graham Norton Show (watch for yourself above).
She says she’s been doing it all DIY with a tattoo gun she bought from eBay! Would U let Margot tattoo you??
Kaley Cuoco
Kaley Cuoco has always had a love for dogs, but she has an even bigger spot in her heart for horses!
You may not know this, but The Big Bang Theory star has been an equestrian for her entire life, long before she broke out on TV. She’s competed in everything from show jumping events to Grand Prix competitions. She was even married to an Olympic equestrian from 2018 to 2022, her ex husband Karl Cook.
Steve Martin
The beloved Steve Martin isn’t just a hilarious guy onscreen — he’s got an ear for music, too.
The 80-year-old started learning to play the banjo and dipping his toes into bluegrass at the age of 17. He’s had zero professional training, he taught himself how to play the instrument, and does a pretty damn good job! He’s even won three Grammy awards for his bluegrass music!
Mark Ruffalo
Mark Ruffalo has a unique skill that almost borders on circus act!
The actor can ride a unicycle! He picked up the skill at just 12 years old, but ended up not doing it for a while. It seems like unicycles and bicycles are hand-in-hand, though — once you learn, you don’t forget! After 25 years of not riding, Mark rode a six-foot tall unicycle on The Graham Norton Show. Talk about balance!
Jason Statham
Before Jason Statham became everyone’s favorite gravelly-voiced action hero, he was actually an impressive athlete.
It might surprise you to hear Jason’s under-the-radar talent is diving! Ahead of his movie star career, he built a name for himself for 12 years on Britain’s national diving team. He even represented England at the 1990 Commonwealth Games in New Zealand, finishing in eighth place!
Vanilla Ice
Vanilla Ice is always back with some brand new inventions: for his house flipping!
The Ice Ice Baby rapper has been a high-end house flipper for nearly 30 years, taking on some of the biggest luxury estates across the country. He’s even starred in two shows following his business, The Vanilla Ice Project and Ice My House. He doesn’t run a public service for hire anymore, but behind the scenes he’s continued to follow his passion of flipping and real estate investing!
Nick Offerman
Okay, this one might not be so surprising, but still worth mentioning! Long before becoming a fan favorite on Parks & Recreation, Nick Offerman had his own real life passion for woodworking.
Back in 2001, he opened Offerman Woodshop in El Lay, which became a big staple in the area. His woodworking pieces are absolutely stunning, and you can really see the heart he puts into his work. He’s even written some books about woodworking, showing his true passion lies within creating, whether that’s onscreen or with some nails and hammers!
Megan Fox
As if Megan Fox couldn’t get any cooler, the Transformers actress LOVES gaming!
She’s shared over the years that she grew up loving the Super Nintendo console, and has been an avid player of games like Mortal Kombat and Call of Duty. She’s even done some video game competitions and livestreams for Xbox and other creators. And who can forget her iconic voicing and modeling for the vampire in Mortal Kombat 1, Nitara!

Mike Tyson definitely takes the cake for the most unique hobby on this list!
The boxer has spent his life raising, breeding, and racing PIGEONS! Ever since he was a kid growing up in Brooklyn, Mike has had a soft spot for the birds, and has even said pigeon raising and racing was his first true love. Over the years, he’s participated in racing and flying competitions for the birds. Did U even know this was a thing?! Super inneresting!
Terry Crews
Terry Crews isn’t just a HIGHlarious face on Brooklyn Nine-Nine and a former NFL star, he’s an artist!
Growing up in Flint, Michigan, he became a courtroom sketch artist when he was just a teen. He even used his art skills to help bring in income while he played in the NFL by painting hyper-realistic portraits and earning commission from his teammates. To this day, Terry delves into his passion for art in unique and inspiring ways. He even created a cover illustration for Ad Age magazine!
