Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Dax Shepard claims he was lowest paid Parenthood star

Caption:

Dax Shepard claims he was lowest paid Parenthood star. The comedian and actor joked that despite opting to stay in the dark about his co-stars' pay packets, it was obvious he earned less. Dax, 50, appeared on the series throughout its 2010-2015 run and explained this week he had chosen not to worry about whether or not he was being paid as much as his colleagues. He told former Parenthood co-star Lauren Graham on this week's episode of his Armchair Expert podcast: ”I went into Parenthood going, 'I'm purposely gonna not find out,' and I was so happy on the show.” However, he claimed it was clear he made less money than other actors on the series because he never wanted to spend as much as they did on gifts for the crew at the end of shooting each season. ”There were 13 cast members, and we bought the gift. You know, we would cumulatively chip in on whatever we were getting the crew and the amount of emails that would go back and forth to decide whether we're getting this mug or this f**king (gift)... it was impossible.” "I know I was making among the lowest of all the actors! I was kinda, like, 'Get them a mug, man’."
