Sexy actor and TV host Mario Lopez talks to The Advocate about his new underwear line his gay fans, and fatherhood. Here are some excerpts:
On his underwear line Rated M.
I wanted to get into apparel, specifically fitness apparel. I’ve always liked the sort of fitness clothes that don’t look like fitness clothes. The kind you can rock with jeans and be casual. I wanted to get into that realm, and we just decided to start with underwear. I get teased because I’m always walking around in my underwear. I’m like Nature Boy — just very comfortable, I guess. There are also undershirts and T-shirts and little cool headbands that I work out in.
On his gay fans:
Gay fans are very loyal. And very cool. I’m honored to be embraced by the gay community. They’re the smartest and the hippest. They determine what’s hot out there.
On becoming a dad:
It’s made me work that much harder. I’ve always had a strong work ethic and have always been a pretty ambitious guy and a go-getter. Being a father just gives me incentive to grind it out even more. It’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me. I’m blessed with a beautiful, healthy little girl. Hopefully there are more to come.
