Wizards of Waverly Place star Dan Benson has made a career change since leaving the show, and his choice might surprise some who used to watch the family-friendly show.
Dan played Zeke on the series. These days he works in the adult entertainment industry, and he recently explained the move was a way to regain his power.
He tells E! News, "Basically, when I was on the show Wizards of Waverly Place, I would get messages from people all the time, some of those being women that I found incredibly attractive. Turns out, messaging those women, who turned out not to be who they said they were, was not the best idea, because I would send nude photos to them and they would take those nude photos and then post them onto online websites."
He continued, "Obviously, I did not want them out there. But, as you can imagine, that was a pretty difficult task. I ended up almost losing my job later in life because of that after I kind of retired from acting."
"I decided to stop fighting against it and instead, go the other direction and completely lean into it and build out a page instead of letting these people sell my privacy," he explained. "So I started that adventure last year."
