Bullies don't discriminate when it comes to choosing their victims, and they certainly did not mind tormenting these stars before they became famous.
Here are five celebrities who were bullied during their teen years.
1. Priyanka Chopra

2. Siddharth Malhotra

3. Tom Cruise

Tom Cruise was a dyslexic child, which made him an easy target for bullies. However, the Mission: Impossible star didn’t let dyslexia hinder his career. He worked hard to become one of Hollywood’s most respectable and successful superstars. With more than 40 commercially successful films, he's currently the world's third-richest actor.
