- London, Oct 13 (IANS) Hollywood star Al Pacino has revealed he traded his body for food and shelter when he was living as a struggling actor in Sicily, Italy.
“The Godfather” actor spent time in his family’s native Sicily in 1960 after dropping out of school to pursue his big screen dreams and found himself struggling. So he decided to sell his body to keep a roof over his head, reports imdb.com.
Pacino, 69, also admits he often awoke to regret his decision.
“At 20, I lived in Sicily by selling the only asset I had - my body. An older woman traded food and housing in return for sex. I woke mornings not really loving myself,” he said.
