Sure, your typical movie star is chiseled and handsome with a jacked body and a suave demeanor, but what about all the rest of the underdogs and oddballs who show up to a casting call? It's those hopeful weirdos who are our people.

And it's they who are depicted in "Holy Headshot!: A Celebration of America's Undiscovered Talent," a new book that peeks into the bizarre world of show business and highlights some of the strangest, funniest and most inexplicable headshots and resumes therein. We've collected a few of our favorite characters from the book in the gallery below, from Kitten Kay Sera, who by contract will only wear pink, to "popper" Grand Master Priest Faustus. Enjoy, then check the book's site to find out where to see these fine performers in person.
