10 Things You Didn't Know About Chris Pratt

1. He Was A Stripper

Okay, so you know he's Hollywood's top leading man at the moment, but going back to his youth days on the beach in Maui, Pratt was forced to take several jobs, including one as a coupon salesman and another as a day-time male stripper. He revealed to Buzzfeed: "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.'" Though things took a turn for the weird when he was 18 year old and he performed at his friend's grandmother's birthday party. €œIt was a surprise! I don€™t know how it got around to them, but they paid me $40. 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.€ Now Pratt can keep his clothes on and still rake in bigger money than he could ever have dreamed about with a net-worth of around $20 million, and his biggest roles to date just getting started.
