Former child star Danny Pintauro reveals his surprising shift to gig work
Danny Pintauro opens up about Hollywood residuals and his new regular job
In an exclusive interview with Entertainment Tonight, former Who's the Boss? star Danny Pintauro discusses why a selfie of him working as an Amazon delivery driver recently went viral. The 1980s child actor reveals that public fascination stems from a misunderstanding of Hollywood finances, explaining that unless you are in the top one percent of working actors, making a living is incredibly tough in the modern landscape.
Pintauro shares a shocking truth about classic television residuals: despite Amazon acquiring all eight seasons of his hit show, his annual payout was a mere $4,000. He points out that he makes far more money delivering packages for the platform than streaming on it. Alongside driving for Amazon Flex, Pintauro stays busy crafting and selling miniature book nooks. Despite the financial grind, he remains close with his former co-stars and enjoys a surprise visit from his mom during the interview.
