FlavaMen offering $100,000 for star's cock shots

Okay, by all counts Spectacular (front man for the R&B group Pretty Ricky) is straight. He recently took to YouTube to do a little dance-cum-grind in his undies and kept insisting it was "strictly for the ladies." But that hasn't stopped gay adult studio Flava Works from offering him an a lot of money to pose naked in the next issue of FlavaMen.

“The company has secured and confirmed private investors to provide [Spectacular] with $100,000 in compensation for a photo spread featuring him as the magazine’s cover model,” a FlavaMen statement noted Friday.

Spectacular had posted the video of himself in a pair of skimpy red briefs in order to promote Pretty Ricky’s next single “Tipsy.” The video went viral but made some question the young man's sexuality; he does come across as, well, not very straight.

He countered by claiming that all he wanted to do was show off his amazing body.

“FlavaMen magazine made the offer due to the company believing that even straight men can pose for FlavaMen magazine,” the company noted in its statement. “The magazine’s target audience is gay ethnic men of color, but many of its models do not engage in [same-sex] sexual acts or practice a homosexual lifestyle.”

Flava Works Chief Executive Officer Phillip Bleicher added, “I would love to have Spectacular do a spread. He would be the first male celebrity to do so. That would be history.”

And we all know what you mean by spread Mr. Bleicher ...
