CHRIS MICHAELS, one of the bachelors from the premiere episode of FOR LOVE OR MONEY 2, posed nude as a centerfold for PLAYGIRL MAGAZINE's December 2002 issue. He was also featured in the JAN 03 issue which included a calendar of all of the 2002 centerfolds. So if you want to see this guy naked in all his glory - in various states of excitement - you know where to look
Chris was the guy with darker skin who had taken the girl to th e side and was eating s'mores with him. He was one of the final 2 when she decided to send him packing. I dont know if they gave out last names on the show; I also dont know if thats his real last name as models or porn people often use different names when they pose naked.
Chris' NBC web bio even matches his info from Playgirl in terms of where hes from, his age, etc. .... Even though the magazine sometimes lies with that information as well.
This has all been confirmed by reliable sources. Pictures from the pictorial can be found all over the n et, especially on some yahoo groups about Playgirl Magazine. He was recognized immediately; whether he told producers or whether this would have been relevant, I do not know. Also dont know if this was a one time thing for Chris or if hes done porn or other modeling work - nude or otherwise. I dont have the actual magazine in front of me so I dont know what the text accompanying his pictures said or whether that was accurate.

Boston - I question why it's so important to you that we have this info. Bombs like this dropped by someone in their first FORT post always make me suspicious.
I'm with Mimi. So what? I'm not in the mood to chase down ambigous references to photos 'all over the web' based on your comments.
But here's a link for you: www.thesmokinggun.com
I'm sure if this checks out, they will run it as a feature this week.
Not to be too blunt, but this rumor is bullsh*t. What do you have to back this kind of scurrilous slander up? I know Chris, and don't believe this for a second, and when this does prove to be untrue, you'd best be prepared to apologize in a hurry, because Chris has me and 13 other guys who've got his back, and don't appreciate people spreading lies.
Watch yourself, bostonsinclair.
Well if you say this is untrue - all you need to do is look at the pictures... Get the magazine or go to a yahoo group on Playgirl and they have all the pictures posted on there. 27 year old Chris Michaels from Hermosa Beach, CA. I only posted this because I thought it would be of interest to people watching the show. Dont crucify me for telling the truth. As for the smoking gun, i spoke to them about this and while they thanked me for giving them the information, they said they would probably not run it because he is no longer a contestant - therefore its not 'newsworthy' because people cannot tune in and see him.
If the other poster really does know Chris, you should ask him - because as a centerfold, he had many pictures posted in his issue. Its not a big deal to me, youre the ones making it a big issue.

Just to throw in my two cents, I actually know Chris and his last name isn't Michaels. He also doesn't live in Hermosa. I've played soccer with him for years and the Playgirl guy isn't him. Sooooo . . . I hope we can lay this to rest now.
How is he taking the rejection, do you know?Just to throw in my two cents, I actually know Chris and his last name isn't Michaels. He also doesn't live in Hermosa. I've played soccer with him for years and the Playgirl guy isn't him. Sooooo . . . I hope we can lay this to rest now.
"How is he taking the rejection, do you know?"
------------------------
He wouldn't go down to S.D. with a couple of guys this past weekend to play in a soccer tournament because he was worried about getting injured (one of our guys said because of some promos for the show or something) . . . . we have been teasing him about the show for some time, but he has been pretty good about not giving anything up. I personally thought he lasted a lot longer than one episode, but with the editing they do, who knows?
I called and left him a message on his phone to tease him yesterday "Are you ready to fall in love?" which is what he said to Erin when he walked up to her . . . . he is just a really laid back guy in general.
To answer your question: I think he is just fine, but wishes he could have stayed on longer (obviously). I'll know more when I talk to him.
