So I guess he and Vince have more than Jen Aniston in common…

In this week’s issue of Newsweek, Brad Pitt confesses that his “strangest job ever” was being a personal chauffeur for strippers:

“I had a job driving strippers around,” he told the mag. “Yeah, my job was to drive them to bachelor parties and things. I’d pick them up, and at the gig I’d collect the money, play the bad Prince tapes and catch the girls’ clothes. It was not a wholesome atmosphere, and it got very depressing.”

However, the job ended up making Pitt’s career.

“After two months I went in to quit, and the guy said, ‘Listen, I’ve got this one last gig tonight.’ So I did it, and this girl—I’d never met her before—was in an acting class taught by a man named Roy London [a famous acting coach]. I went and checked it out, and it really set me on the path to where I am now.”

He added: “Strippers changed my life.”

Three things:

1) “Bad” and “Prince tape” do not belong in the same sentence. Unless he means “bad” as in “awesome” — which I don’t believe he does.

2) Didn’t he once have a job handing out cigarette samples dressed as a giant chicken for the fast-food chain El Pollo Loco? Now that’s strange. Not to mention a mouthful. But driving strippers around… that’s just another day for most Hollywood actors.

Speaking of which…

3) Somewhere, Owen Wilson is brainstorming how he can land this gig.
