Ok kid's hot off the ole gossip pages is the smoking HOT story of Calvin Klein and his new "boyfriend", my post will include the rather risque photographs of Nick so if this is not your cup of tea you may want to skip it. But for those of you who will read, he is a very good looking fellow of 20 who happens to model Jockey Underwear.
Earlier this summer, reporters started seeing pictures of designer Calvin Klein trotting around town with a 20-year-old model named Nick Gruber. Reporters couldn't find much information on Gruber, but it looks like we finally found his very revealing modeling portfolio.
Klein, 67, was first photographed with the blond boytoy as early as May and the pair have since been seen at a number of movie premieres and charity events in Manhattan and the Hamptons. Last week, Page Six of "Gawker" ran a picture in the paper's print edition of the two men walking in Manhattan and described Gruber as Klein's "partner." Looks like they know something about their relationship that we don't.But reporters did manage to find Gruber's Facebook page (where he goes by "Nick Oo") and his profile on ModelMayhem.com, which is like MySpace for prospective models and the photographers who want to hire them. (He goes by the name "Nick London" on that site.) [Update: He's since deleted his ModelMayhem profile.]
Based on his Facebook page, Nick is from Crystal River, Florida, graduated high school last year, and is currently enrolled at Santa Rosa Junior College north of San Francisco. [Note: At least that's what he claims. Reporters don't believe all the info he posted to Facebook is true.] He's friends with the general assortment of young ladies and hot gay guys one would expect of a handsome young dude. But he's also friends with a gay pornographer named Blue Blake. Hmm, how did that happen?
For me this story was not such a huge shock as Calvin has gone on record and dated a fellow before marrying his second wife--he and his boyfriend then inthe 1980's bought the home in the Hampton's. How do I know this, I did a report on Calvin Klein when I attended Virginia Marti College in Lakewood around the time Klien had a store at Tower City in downtown Cleveland. This of course was during the "Marky" Mark Wahlberg underwear ad campaign. My only thought on this one is very simply, what do the two have in common? Now I know many of you are going to point out that Jim and I have our share of years between us but kids it is not no 47 years between us. Hell for that matter what would I have in common in dating a 20 year old fellow? Maybe I am wrong here and probably am, but I would LOVE to hear what you all think on this matter. Do the same ideas apply when the older man is dating a younger man as when an older woman dates a younger man and an older man dates a younger woman? Very curious thought huh?
Speaking of adult content, Nick's modeling portfolio includes shoots with both Rick Day and Edendale Studios, photographers known for their images of naked men in various states of undress (and arousal). Reporters contacted Rick Day to find out more and a rep told them that Nick London hired them to take pictures for his portfolio (which they said can cost $750 and up, not a small sum for a 20-year-old college student), although they also said they didn't know anything about Nick's connection to Calvin Klein.So are Nick Oo, Nick London and Nick Gruber one and the same? The pictures suggest as much, although reporters can't say for certain. But it certainly fits with Klein's longstanding habit of dating strapping young models. But what's Nick doing mocking up photos of himself for rival underwear company Jockey? Klein better smarten up and get his man in some tighty whities and put him on a billboard already!
Well there you have it kids all the juicy dirt and photograph's I could find. Hope you enjoy, and maybe this will beat my all time record of a post being read, which by the way was a post I did on Vintage men's swimwear. Until next time I am so glad we had this time together
