Did you know why Bruce Willis wasn't paid for his guest role in F.R.I.E.N.D.S.?
The Die Hard star appeared in three episodes of the popular sitcom FRIENDS
Bruce Willis played the character of Paul Stevens, the overprotective father of Elizabeth, who was the love interest of Ross Geller, portrayed by David Schwimmer

The Whole Nine Yards went on to make $106 million worldwide and become the No. 1 movie in America for three weeks straight and Matthew Perry won the bet
After Willis lost the bet, he guest starred on season six of FRIENDS for free
His performance even resulted in the star winning an Emmy for outstanding guest actor in a comedy series
