Wayne Brady, 40, (his new ABC show, Trust Us With Your Life, premieres on Tuesday, July 10) shares 25 things you don't know about him with Us Weekly.

25. I kept my job singing and dancing as The Wolf Man at Universal Studios Hollywood into my second season of Whose Line. Benefits, you know.

24. I made my sister's Teddy Ruxpin talk as Satan for two weeks so she'd do my chores.

23. I was in a gang for a week. We stole Peanut M&Ms and comic books from the 7-11. Gangsta.

22. In the same gang, I fought a Haitian kid at school and he tried to stab me with a pencil. I beat his a– with a backpack . . .filled with M&Ms and comic books. Then I quit the gang.

21. I sold sponges, soap, coloring books, and inspirational tapes door to door when I was 15.

20. Worked at Kaybee Toys once for 2 weeks to get the employee discount so I could buy a Nintendo game system.

19. I helped open an Improv comedy theater in Orlando, Florida that's still there called Sak Comedy Theatre. Go see them and ask for the Wayne Brady discount. I hope they let you in.

18. I was a lounge singer in Tokyo, Japan.

17. I took the cake from a birthday party where I was playing the Black Power Ranger, when the dad said "I'm not paying you crap! You don't do karate!" Poor little Jorge…

16. I'm a neat freak.

15. I'm a Grammy nominated singer with a Top Five Urban AC single called "Ordinary".

12. I'm a mama's boy.

11. I was Ritchie in one of the most horrible productions of A Chorus Line ever.

10. I was cast as one of the original Simbas in The Lion King.

9. I have a very ugly big toe on my left foot.

8. I'm very introverted in person unless I've known you for years. Then it's on!

7. I'm allergic to cats. I had an allergic reaction on a date and had to go to the ER. Insert joke involving pussy cats . . .here.

6. My business partner, co-music manger, and best friend is my ex wife.

5. If we're going to date, you may have to be cool with number 6.
