Blonsky, who played Tracy Turnblad in 2007 musical Hairspray, is working at Superstar Hairstylists in her hometown of Great Neck after obtaining a cosmetology licence.
The 23 year old insists she is "proud" to be working in the shop, and plans to continue to audition for acting roles.
In posts on Twitter.com, she writes, "It's true I'm workin (sic) at Superstar Salon as a make-up artist & more. I'm proud to be workin & helpin (sic) pay bills but I'll never loose (sic) sight of my dreams... Just cause I'm part time workin doesn't mean I'm gonna give up on my dreams (and) don't give up on yours. I might book something big soon, keep positive."
Earlier this summer (Jul11), Blonsky denied reports she was employed at a shoe store after falling on hard times, telling fans she wanted to "experiment" by working at the boutique.

You gotta do what you gotta do.
^ Word. . shit is real out there
Isn't this the chick whose family attacked one of the Americas top model girls??
I can't hate on anyone trying to make an honest living....
She got into a physical fight with Bianca golden from antm about seats at an airport. Biancas mom tried to intervene and nikki's father beat biancas mother to the point that she had to be airlifted to the hospital. That's enough drama to get you black listed in Hollywood if you're not a super established celeb.
^^ Chris brown will never hear the end of it but they put out this sympathetic story about her without explaining why she can't get work. She was arrested and charged with a crime.
Thank you 1:03. There was a bit of racism behind the attack too. There are two things you don't mess with in Hollyweird, Gay people and people of color. Sad, but true. I wish her well...it's a shame you cannot divorce your parents sometimes...but her father was and is a piece of garbage for what he did to that woman.I wish her well/luck.
This pig can thank her worthless dad for this. Dont feel sorry for either.
Let's keep it real. Committing a crime is no big deal if you are a bankable artist. Chris Brown, CHARLIE SHEEN and Mel Gibson were able to make comebacks. One of the actors from "The Sopranos" pleaded guilty to assaulting a woman. He's still working. Dr. Dre beat a woman in front of an audience. HE'S still making money.
And no one in Hollywood gives to shits about a black woman taking a beating. This girl Nikki Blonsky is Jewish and can't get work because there are no roles and no room for big women in Hollywood. Is she going to play a romantic lead? An action star? Hairspray is all she had.
Well, at least she is working a legitimate job and didn't resort to some hoe shit like many others. Look at that WWF wrestler Chyyna....remember her....she's on some adult/porn site selling herself out by the hour.
awwwwwwwwwwwww, well at least she's werkin' praise God, i'll be glad when i find me a job
