"I put it on him. Someone had to show him, you know."Alexander Skarsgård talks about helping co-star Joseph Manganiello put on his first "cock sock"a piece of clothing to protect a male actor's modesty. It's always fun when you get others involved.
The steamy weather plaguing the country tells me it's tank-top seasonalthough friends will swear that I called mid-January tank-top season. I was thrilled to see a new crop of ribbed tank tops at H&M. The problem is that sizes at this store are never consistentit's some freaky metric conversion that I haven't quite grasped. This means I usually have to try everything onexcept the store was about to close and I had to make a fast decision. I couldn't figure out if I needed the small or the medium. I decided on the medium with some trepidation, because nothing is worse than a loose ribbed tank top. I went to the cashier and mentioned that I just wasn't sure about the sizethinking it was obvious that I might be too petite for a medium. Apparently she didn't share my concern, as she off-handedly quipped, "Oh, don't worrythese stretch out quite a bit!" This is why we hate Sweden.
My buddy Andy Zeffer's book Going Down in La-La Land was made into a flick, which is currently playing the gay film festival circuit. While I haven't seen it yet, I can certainly attest to the physical charms of leading man Matthew Ludwinskiwho plays an actor who gets involved in gay porn and escorting. Judging from the full-frontal nude photos of him, which you can also see on BillyMasters.com, I predict that he'll have a BIG career.
You'd think we'd be done with hot guys, but we're not. They're just getting more obscure. For instance, how many of you know Ryan Vieth? No one? What if I told you he's the son of Tamra Barney. Ringing any bells? Me, neither. However, apparently Tamra is on The Real Housewives of Orange Countyand, of course, we all remember my guest-starring role on the "Atlanta" edition. That said, I've never seen Ryan before. But once again, I have a hot stranger showing me his penis. In this case, he didn't send it to me directly. He's one of a growing number of men who like to take nude photos of themselves with their iPhoneand I say, "God Bless Apple"! First he took a shirtless photo in a mirror. Then he grabbed onto his penis for dear life and snagged a snap of it ... for reasons we don't completely understand. After all, it's been pretty much proven that women don't care for these types of photos. But I know you do, which is why you can find it on BillyMasters.com .
Our "Ask Billy" question comes from Wade in Houston, who asks: "Who is Duncan James? I saw a really hot pic of him online and he's called a 'singer', but I've never heard of him. He's gorgeous."
Duncan James was a member of the British boyband "Blue"and they were HUGE for about three years. After their breakup, several of the lads (including James) released solo albums. However, Duncan made the transition to musical theatre, appearing in the West End production of Chicago. This impressed people enough to cast him as the male lead in Legally Blondewhich I did see, and found him to be charismatic and, obviously, gorgeous.
As to his personal life, he is the father to a little girl who he had with a girlfriend back in 2005. However, since then, he's come out as bisexual: "I want to be out and say I've had relationships with men as well as women." Because that's what the British do. As to the photo Wade is talking about, I think I can identify it as yet another one of those semi-nude photos that men take in mirrors with their iPhones (again, "God Bless Apple"). In this pic, Duncan is nude, save for the skimpiest of undies that show off every inch of his delectable anatomyand he certainly has nothing to be ashamed of. James says he sent the snap to a friend "who is quite fat ... so he could pretend he'd got really fit. It must have got into the wrong hands via Twitter." That's one excuse. To me, it looks more like a photo someone would post on Manhunt or any number of sites used to cruise for sex. But whatever the circumstances, I'm just glad I saw itand you'll be glad to see it too, on BillyMasters.com .
Lastly, let's file this one under "Strange Bedfellows." Recently, openly gay Hollywood power players Dustin Lance Black and Gus Van Sant were spotted dining at Bottega Louie in LA. There's nothing strange about thatthe two have been friends and colleagues long before collaborating on Milk. But, wait, there was a third seat at the table. Enter Taylor Lautnerso apparently chicken was on the menu. Certainly, this dinner could have been completely professional and innocent. It's also possible that at some point the question of posing nude came up and someone whipped out a camera. The possibilities are endless.
When I'm picturing Taylor sprawled out on a dessert cart (possibly flambé), it's definitely time to end yet another column. And with that, I'm offout of the country for God knows how long. You can keep track of my travails on www.BillyMasters.comthe site that's always à la carte! If you've got a question that you'd like to share with the class, raise your hand and send it along to Billy@BillyMasters.com and I promise to get back to you before H&M hires me as its new spokesmodel! Until next time, remember, one man's filth is another man's bible.
