Pharrell Was Fired From McDonald’s Three Different Times

But now he's happy.

Musician Pharrell Williams stopped by Late Night With Seth Meyers last night to chat about his employment history with McDonald's. Williams reveals that as a youth he was fired from three different McDonald's: "I was lazy... I was only good at eating the chicken nuggets." Meyers points out that the "Happy" singer went on to write McDonald's famed "I'm Lovin' It" jingle. He asks Williams, "Was that the greatest revenge, when you were making that McDonald's money later in life?" Williams then breaks out a hilarious evil laugh. Go, watch.
