To cope with his and his family’s financial needs, Christopher Walken, at the young age of 16, employed himself as an assistant lion trainer in a traveling carnival.
“When the last lion had finished his performance, I used to enter and make this lion perform stunts. Sheba, the female lion, was really kind, according to Walken, who spoke to Vanity Fair.
“This different lion, in particular, was more canine-like… and I would have to use the whip to do stuff.

4. A fly species is named after Beyoncé
Beyoncé now has an insect named after her since the Grammys weren’t enough. A new species of horse fly was found in 2012 by specialists in Northern Queensland, Australia.

5. The pets of Paris Hilton live in little mansions
According to Curbed, Paris Hilton spent $325,000 on a two-story, 300-square-foot home in 2009 because she believed her dog deserved to sleep in luxury.
Designer furnishings, a balcony, and a chandelier made of black crystal are all present in this lavish dog house. For when they intend to perform their “Don’t Cry For Me Argentina” version of the Evita song in full barking fashion, they have a dog bathroom as well.
6. Robert Downey Jr. nearly didn’t get to enter Japan
When Robert Downey Jr. was just eight years old, his father gave him his first marijuana joint, introducing him to drugs. This eventually aided Robert’s drug and alcohol problems, which resulted in jail time later in his life.
After Japanese authorities checked his passport and found his extensive history of criminal behavior, RDJ was prevented from traveling to Japan for the 2008 Iron Man premiere.
Downey was questioned for six hours after failing to reveal these charges. Authorities ultimately obliged that he may visit Japan only for the Iron Man premiere. But please, never come back to Japan,” politely said a Japanese official.
7. The IQ of Nolan Gould is 150
