Bradley Whitford: 'I owe the Aerosmith guy a little over $500'

The Internet Movie Database is a popular and convenient information source for film buffs, but sometimes errors creep in.

Just ask Emmy-winner Bradley Whitford ("The West Wing") who stars in the upcoming FOX action dramedy "The Good Guys" and was in "Adventures in Babysitting," "Revenge of the Nerds II: Nerds in Paradise" and "Billy Madison."

He never, however, was in "Wayne's World 2," as the IMDB indicated at one point. No, that was another Brad Whitford.

"The band Aerosmith has a guitar player named Brad Whitford, and I have been trying to reach out to him, because my rent in New York used to be $328 a month many years ago and I got a residual check for a little over $500 to Brad Whitford," Whitford tells Zap2it. "And I cashed it. So I owe the guy in Aerosmith a little over $500."

IMDB is right, though, that Whitford wishes he had started studying dance when he was a kid.

"Yeah, that is true, strangely enough," Whitford says. "I started doing a bunch of dance in college and graduate school, and I loved it. But of course by the time you're 19, it's really too late [to consider a professional dance career]. But yeah, man, I'll strap on the tights!"
