`XENA' STAR WAS ALMOST `BRA KING OF MICHIGAN'

LOS ANGELES (Wireless Flash) -- Actor Ted Raimi may be famous as the bumbling warrior Joxer on "Xena: Warrior Princess," but he almost ended up as "The Bra King of Michigan." Raimi's mother owns a chain of lingerie shops in Michigan and he considered following in the footsteps of his mom. In fact, when Raimi was 16, he started working at his mother's shops and describes it as a hormonally-driven, teenage boy's dream come true. However, fate prevented him for ascending to the throne as "Bra King" when he accepted an acting job in a horror flick named "Blood Rage," which he describes as "the worst piece of crap ever." These days, Raimi doesn't regret his choice to be an actor, even though his current gig requires he ride a horse -- which he finds absolutely terrifying.
