JESSICA & BRAD POPPED PRINGLES

In order to score a plum role on a Pringles commercial at age 11, Jessica Biel had to perform a trick that sounded impossible to her — at first. “I had to roll the chip from my cheek to my mouth,” recalls the Sinner actress, 36. Jess attempted the move and succeeded — not only winning the part, but learning a skill that she can still impress friends with today (below). A young Brad Pitt, on the other hand, only had to look good in swim trunks to snag a spot in his own 1989 Pringles ad. It wasn’t much of a challenge for the eternally hunky star, 54, who at the time was just two years away from his big break as Geena Davis’ gorgeous hookup in Thelma & Louise!
