Brad Pitt once had a job driving strippers to their gigs.
The Hollywood actor had to pick up the girls and take them to a specific party, where he then had to watch proceedings and catch the strippers' clothes as they threw them off to make sure people didn't steal them.
Speaking on an episode of TV show 'Inside the Actors Studio' - which is set to be broadcast on February 10 - he said: "I drove strippers, which was interesting.
"It was an odd job. There's a place called the Job Factory where people listed odd jobs they needed for a little while and you'd go and sign up. It said, 'Drive strippers.' I said, 'I got a car.' My job was to go to the place and get the assignment, then go to the girl's apartment, pick her up, and drive her to the party.
"You'd then be responsible for playing the music, which was cassette then. Then you had to catch the clothes so the guys wouldn't steal them as they came off. And then you had to try to collect the money at the end and get out of there alive. It was not always easy."
When asked if he enjoyed the work, Brad - who raises six children, Maddox, 10, Pax, eight, Zahara, seven, Shiloh, five, and twins Knox and Vivienne, three, with his partner Angelina Jolie - replied: "Yes, I did."
The 48-year-old star even met his late acting coach Roy London through the job after being persuaded to work for one more night after he tendered his resignation.
He explained: "There was a new girl there that night and sometimes when you drive, you strike up a conversation.
"She said she was dating an actor, an actor I had actually heard of. I didn't know any actors - this was the closest I'd gotten to someone who actually worked. She told me about this class she started taking. I said, 'Give me the name.' It turned out to be Roy London, who was a beautiful human being."
