 Stamos’s father was a restaurateur, while his mother worked as a model. In his youth, John Stamos worked for his father’s restaurants, flipping burgers in the Orange County area. At the age of 18, he decided he wanted to become an actor and with the support of his father he refrained from enrolling at Cypress University. At that time he was a big fan of the legendary band “The Beach Boys” watching their concerts at every opportunity wishing for some time to get to know them. Stamos’ luck and talent made him a member of the band a few years later giving concerts to this day.
