Here’s a career move. Actor Joey Lawrence (“Melissa & Joey,” “Blossom”) is joining Chippendales.
The 36-year-old will work as a singer, dancer and host in the Las Vegas production of the male erotic dancing troupe for three weeks in June.
In a statement Thursday to The Associated Press (who actually read it), Lawrence said screening Channing Tatum's upcoming film about being a stripper – “Magic Mike” – encouraged him to join the male revue.
Says Lawrence: “I found out that guys like Brad Pitt and Javier Bardem have also done stuff like this and being the fearless guy that I am, I said yes.”
Good thing Pitt and Bardem never jumped off a bridge.
