First Contact: Richie Nuzzolese gets in touch

Date: 24-Aug-2011

Seek and you shall find. You may remember over the weekend we published a shoot featuring the very hot Richie Nuzzolese and we asked, “What happened to the hot guy in Katy Perry’s video?” The model reached out via Facebook and Twitter and directly introduced himself to us!

Our first post starring the model showcased the best bits from his shoot with the Jack Adams underwear brand, as well as another look at Katy Perry’s video for Last Friday Night (TGIF).

A couple of days after that post went up, the 21-year-old stunner tweeted, “Hey @DNAMagazine – I’m right here! *waves hands*” He also posted our original article on his Facebook page. That’s social media in action. Bringing people together. We always knew we had the sexiest readers in the world!
