Chris Pratt used to be a stripper, worked a friend's grandmother's birthday party

Chris Pratt has revealed that like fellow actor Channing Tatum, he was once a stripper. He revealed in a new interview that he was a stripper at the age of 18.

Now 34, the Zero Dark Thirty actor told BuzzFeed that it made sense, since he was comfortable being naked and wanted to make as much money as he could.
“I was always a very much naked person. I loved to always get naked. I was very free, so I thought, I may as well get paid,” he said.
Pratt never worked in a club like Tatum, but he did a few odd jobs here and there like bachelorette parties. However, the most surprising was his friend’s grandmother’s birthday party.

“It was a surprise. I don’t know how it got around to them, but they paid me $40,” he laughed. “I was never like Magic Mike, you know. I did go one time and audition on a stage for a club, but I don’t think I got the job. I don’t think I’m a very good dancer.”

Stripping wasn’t his only job, though. He admits he was a hard worker and would stop at nothing to make money.

"I cleaned peoples' cars, painted murals, worked for my dad, worked at a burger joint, was a room service waiter, worked at the snack bar at a bingo hall. I babysat and mowed lawns; I picked blackberries and sold them,” he said, Cosmoplitan reports. “I was always very enterprising as a kid. I was always trying to find some way to make money."

Prat and his wife, Anna Faris, welcomed their son Jack in August.
