Rumor isthat Fredrik Eklund, a.k.a porn actor Tag Ericksson, was going to appear on the new season of Bravo’s reality real-estate show, Million Dollar Listings.
Now the network has confirmed Eklund will be one of the brokers appearing on the Big Apple spin-off, Million Dollar Listings New York, debuting March 7 at 10pm.
Bravo included a lengthy profile on the sky-high Swede in a press release, but there’s no mention of his adult past.
Fredrik Eklund is the youngest Managing Director for Prudential Douglas Elliman. With more than 1.25 billion dollars in residential sales, he is known for being a “listings machine” working with the firm’s senior management team focusing on international sales, new developments and re-sales throughout Manhattan. Eklund is constantly rated as downtown’s “Top Luxury Broker” and was nominated as “Rookie of the Year” by the Real Estate Board of New York. He set record sales in 28 buildings in Manhattan last year and is often spotted showing apartments to top name celebrities. Originally from Stockholm, Sweden, Eklund studied at the Stockholm School of Economics before founding an Internet company and working for the investment bank SEB in Stockholm, London, Singapore and Tokyo. In addition, he is the founder of a high end residential real estate brokerage in Scandinavia with 35 employees.And that’s despite the fact that Eklund has openly discussed it in the press and even addressed it in his memoir.
We’re fairly certain Bravo is gonna pull a Dustin Zito and mention Eklund’s porn past in the second or third episode as some big shocking secret. Seriously, when has a reality show not aired someone’s dirty laundry?
As for Eklund, the show should prove an interesting new enterprise:
