Somewhere between his professional diving career and being a big, tough movie star in “The Expendables,” the “Transporter” series and the upcoming “Spy,” British tough guy Jason Statham earned a living as … a go-go dancer in music videos.

I look forward to Statham having to field questions about these videos for the next few months.
