Or be fascinatingly ugly

There's the lazy way, which is move to LA, get some shots done and wait for the right part to come to you.

Or you can write something that's good and star in it on a minimum budget.

first, get yourself some knee pads

Definitely start taking a few classes if you're interested. Also, try getting an ensemble roll in community theatre. It's not necessarily a resume-builder, but it'll give you experience with professionals in an appropriate environment. Also, learn how to audition. If you can't do that properly, they won't bother looking at your name on the list. Also, be prepared to never get a roll in anything significant, and be willing to take anything you can get. If you can't do these things, you won't succeed.
>t. actual actor

Yeah you're right, just because this chick (and whoever else) never took any acting classes and became a successful actor anyway means OP shouldn't look into learning how to act.

many hollywood stars never took any classes

You're just a face in a crowd of 30,000,000. What makes you special enough for a casting director to hire you? Desire isn't enough.

You could try taking a theater class at a community college, and try to get cast in a theater production. Low risk to see if you have even a glimmer of potential.

Walk into a cattle call casting? You'll be culled in the first round, there are hundreds of thousands of people ahead of you who have talent, have actually acted, and put some effort into it.

What you're doing is the same as walking in the door at NASA, and telling the receptionist 'I want to be an astronaut, where do I apply?"

There are exceptions to the rule no doubt.

and how's your actor life user?

hit record on your camera and perform
DANCE FOR ME MONKEY DANCE FOR ME!

if you can actually sing and dance and have talent the Broadway theater scene seems easier to get into than trying to make it into Hollywood

It's shit. But it's not my main profession, so it's not too big of a deal. I'm thinking about switching over into voice acting instead.

Become an e-celeb. It's definitely easier and you'll have a crowd all the same. Add a patreon account and you'll make more cash than the average actor.

literally all you have to do
