Blake McIver Ewing, who famously played Derek Boyd on the classic ’90s sitcom Full House (as well as Waldo in The Little Rascals movie and Corky in Problem Child 3: Junior in Love), is now bumping and grinding in the WeHo bar scene. He tells RumorFix he’s been working as a go-go boy for the past year. Now 28-years-old and a singer/songwriter, he was making a living as vocal coach when business slowed down. The former child star says he decided to be a go-go boy on a lark and “in the process, I found it so liberating and empowering.”

Blake tells us he came out of the closet three years ago and being a dancer in gay clubs helped his coming out process. “I had so much shame about my body. This was a way to express myself that was safe, sensual and fun,” he says. Good for him. Whatever works, right? Check out the full package after the jump.
