Chris Pratt may be a big star now but he had also been to rough roads and had experienced challenging jobs that he proudly admits in an interview with Red Bulletin magazine for its July issue.

One might be surprised to find out that this 35-year old hunk drops out from college and has participated in odd jobs being a discount ticket agent and a stripper which he referred as a 'cheap Magic Mike' said to be a second-rate version of Channing Tatum's sexy stunts in the Magic Mike series, E! Online said.

"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 admitted.

He also revealed that he had performed in a friend's grandmother's birthday party and had even auditioned for a stage act in a club.

"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," he confessed.

Further, the Parks and Recreation actor admitted that he also auditioned to land on a role in Avatar but unfortunately, got rejected, Ace Showbiz reports.

"That's just one of the movies I auditioned for and didn't get. I wasn't getting any parts. None! I tried for almost every movie you didn't see me in."

Chris Pratt is just one of the many celebrities who had odd jobs before they entered showbiz and achieved superstardome.

Tech Times recalled successful stars like Victoria Beckham, Tom Cruise, Jon Hamm, Helen Mirren, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt and yes, Channing Tatum who also admitted at the height of their careers that they were once, normal people willing to land on odd jobs to make ends meet.
