12 Celebs Who Overcame A Stutter

Samuel L. Jackson

No one can curse quite like Samuel L. Jackson. A lot of that has to do with the fact that cursing helped Jackson get over his stutter. Growing up in Tennessee during the 50’s, Jackson was teased as a child because of his stutter and cursing helped him out. “I was the other day on the set of ‘Captain America’ and they said ‘Action!” and I said, ‘G-g-g-et …’ It was a G day,” Jackson said about his ongoing stutter. “So I have my days. I have G days, I have P days, I have B days, I have S days, and I’m still stuttering. But I figured out a way to do it. And some days, the best thing for me to do is say my favorite word, and I get through it.”
