Long before Patrick Dempsey was a hunky TV doctor and romantic comedy movie star, the 42-year-old just really wanted to be a clown. He told Extra, "Barnum and Bailey has a clown school that you have to go through to get into the circus. I put the form in and I was too young and I didn't get accepted.”
Now, Patrick's main work out is bicycling instead of juggling. But, the two have something in common- a funny wardrobe. He admits that he gets made fun of a lot for wearing spandex. “But if you're riding a bike a lot it makes sense. If you cycle it's fine," he said, "I've given up having an ego at this point!”
