Lopez’s “Gold Metal” Photo Shoot

Mario Lopez is out to prove that he’s the fashion world’s golden boy…

Lopez, who hosts MTV’s America’s Best Dance Crew host, shared his heavy metal transformation with his Twitter followers, explaining the connection between his scantily clad campaign and the underwear.

“‘MaLo’ is all about ‘masculine with an edge,” he tweeted. “Packaging is the statue of David, one of the most iconic bodies in the world. MaLo captures some of that beauty & masculinity but with a MaLo twist.”

Inspired by the Michelangelo‘s David, Lopez proudly displayed his ripped physique as he posed with a javelin and shot put.

Before getting painted, Lopez’s fiancée Courtney Mazza joined him on the set to model men’s briefs and tanks alongside the star.
