As a lifestyle connoisseur, let me share an intriguing tidbit about the iconic 80s heartthrob, Rob Lowe: While he undeniably captivated hearts worldwide with his dashing good looks during acting stints, there’s more to this charismatic figure than meets the eye. In fact, did you know that Rob Lowe once tried his hand at music? Yes, you heard it right! He even took the initial stride by recording a yacht rock demo alongside the legendary Toto band. This fascinating revelation was revealed on his podcast, Literally, as reported by Entertainment Weekly.

The performer expressed, “At this stage in a young actor’s profession, they’re no longer suitable for the roles they’ve been performing, as those roles require younger actors. However, they’re also not yet ready to take on the roles that will define their career, which are typically the most significant ones.

It’s said that the actor failing to secure decent roles may have led him to pursue a career in music instead. He admitted that there was an intuitive pull towards it, hinting at his deep affection for music. Moreover, he confessed that the idea of focusing more on music had been lingering in his mind, eventually resulting in him recording a demo with the band Toto.
