Superhero movie star Chris Pratt interrupted an interview to French braid an intern’s hair

SUPERHERO movie star Chris Pratt interrupted an interview and did something to an intern that surprised everyone in the room.

Chris Pratt’s ‘tender’ moment with intern

IT was just another run-of-the-mill interview to promote his new superhero movie Guardians Of The Galaxy, until star Chris Pratt did something very unusual.

Best known for his role in TV comedy Parks And Recreation as the dimwitted but lovable Andy, Pratt has had something of a transformation over the past year.

For one, the 35-year-old swapped his trademark pudge for a ripped and toned rig — a physical overhaul that he gleefully documented on social media.

But it seems the actor has also picked up some new skills from his comedian wife, Anna Faris.

During an interview this week with Entertainment Tonight, Pratt was asked about his apparent ability to French braid hair.

In April, the actor posted a picture on Instagram of the braid he did on his wife’s hair, captioning it “This is weird to brag about but I did that glorious French braid”.

Confirming his handiwork, Pratt invited the show’s intern, a girl named Jen, to join him and got to work on her mane.

“This is not embarrassing at all,” he commented, before continuing with the interview.

“I like your hair — it’s very nice.”

Clearly a master of multi-tasking, Pratt spoke about his upcoming role in Jurasic World, all the while doing a top notch job of braiding the girl’s hair.

“I’ve never had a man French braid my hair,” she laughed. “You’re very gentle. Thank you for your tender hands.”

Moments later, he completed the ‘do with a hair tie, which he clarified was not a rubber band.

“You wouldn’t want to use a rubber band. That could damage the hair. What you want to use is something called a scrunchie.”
