MILK INCIDENT FINISHED MCKENZIE’S WAITER CAREER
Actor BEN MCKENZIE cringes at the memory of his time as a restaurant wait er - because he was constantly spilling drinks over diners.
The star shot to fame as rebel Ryan Atwood in teen series The O.C. alon gside Mischa Barton and Rachel Bilson.
But before the series introduced him to a Hollywood lifestyle, McKenzie was forced to be a busboy at a busy Los Angeles restaurant - and admits he was hopeless at waiting tables.
He tells JustJared.com, "It was one restaurant and it doesn’t exist any more… Terrible. I was absolutely awful. Really bad. Very poor multi-tas ker. I can do one thing if I’m concentrating on it, but that’s about it. One table would get great service and everyone else was sort of screwed. A lot of spilling - I was awful! "Everybody was very sweet, I have to say. I remember spilling various t hings on people, luckily never red wine. I think I spilled a glass of mil k, which was unusual that we were even serving milk to someone. It was no t my proudest moment. They say some actors are born to be waiters; I defi nitely couldn’t do what they do." (MJ/WNJJ/PAW) ————————————————————————-
