I'm not usually a Lifetime movie fan... but have you seen the promos for the upcoming Kristin Chenoweth movie, 12 Men of Christmas? It's featuring some favorites of ours, including Josh Hopkins and Jessie Pavelka!

In the movie, Kristin is a marketing gal who has moved to Kalispell, MT and ends up helping the local Search & Rescue team do some fundraising... with a naked calendar! Here are some of the calendar pages she ended up with... Check out a little behind the scenes video after the jump.

Watch it Saturday, December 5th on Lifetime.

Here are some new Timoteo backstage photos from the Latin Factory VI Fashion Show that have been going around today. The event benefited the community service organization Bienestar. Bienestar originated as a direct result of neglect and non-existent HIV/AIDS services for the Latino community. Since then, Bienestar has evolved into a multi-service, multi-center agency, offering services throughout Los Angeles County, San Bernardino County, and San Diego.

Beautiful guys for a beautiful cause... can charity events ever go wrong when they involve underwear models? (That's Chad above... and Tommy is after the jump!)

P.S. Remember our 2010 Model Search is still going on for the Support Nature Project... we'd love to have you as an entrant, or as a voter in our "Fan Favorite" poll!

Check out these photos of Renato Ferreira, who is prominently featured in the latest issue of Bello Mag. Renato appears in Boys in the Hood, a fashion editorial from Richard Gerst.

Says Gerst of the shoot:

Renato is truly polite - clear, calm, direct- and "strong" in all aspects of his personality.

When I put him in front of the lens he became this concentration of energy, barely containable by that rippling physique of his -- which he obviously has worked very, very hard perfecting!

"Boys in the Hood" was conceived as a fall fashion shoot and shot with Cameron K. Carpenter styling, someone I have worked with before. He is always great fun to work with.

The strobed throw back shots obtained outside during the day came from the concept of street-wise toughness and action. I wanted something beautiful and atypical.

The editors at BelloMag agreed - and loved the look.

Check out three more outtakes from the shoot after the jump -- a big thank-you to Richard for sending them over!

Meet certified nutritionist, trainer, (and future Ph.D.) Christopher Nogiec! We heard about Chris when he got a shout out on B-Side Blog (HI-larious and near the top of my daily reads.)

When Chris is not studying or helping others get healthy he models, and has appeared in a campaign for IQONIQ underwear. I have a feeling we're going to see much more of Chris soon - whether it is as an underwear model or collecting his next degree!
