Huh. Apparently the actor who played Derek, Michelle’s friend on Full House, and Waldo in The Little Rascals has an actual name, I mean, other than The Actor Who Played Derek, Michelle’s Friend on Full House, and Waldo In The Little Rascals. It’s Blake McIver Ewing, and no longer does he look like the weirdest non-Culkin. Dude’s ripped.
He now works as a go-go dancer, slinging drinks for the Danny Tanner-Gladstones of the world.
“I have worked as a go-go boy over the past year,” the 28-year-old [said] during an interview. “The tips were good. In fact, I raised so much money I was able to finish my record—mission accomplished.”
McIver is a singer/songwriter, and was trying to make a living as vocal coach, but when business slowed down he decided to start dancing and “in the process, I found it so liberating and empowering.” (Via)
I hated Derek then for being an obsessive-compulsive wimp, and I hate Blake now. Ugh, bettering yourself? I like my former-child stars to be massive train wrecks with drug addictions, thank you very much. You too, Jurnee Smollett.
Hey Todd. As for Tahj “Teddy” Mowry, here he is getting his throat sliced:
Classic Teddy.
