15 Stars Who Pushed to Get Things Done Their Way (And Succeeded)

They say “the squeakiest wheel gets the grease.” If you bring something up to your parent, teacher, boss, God, or some other superior, you'll have a chance to get what you want. Sometimes it is because they ultimately agree with their decision. Sometimes they agree to give in just to shut you up. What does it matter? You got what you wanted.

Just check out these examples, and see all the ways this scenario can play out.
