We're constantly on the prowl for flawlessly sculpted and impossibly chiseled exotic model specimens. So you can imagine our excitement when we discovered Michel Altieri, who allows us to indulge our runway fetish, two years of high school Italian, and our love of show tunes in one handy package: the 27 year-old Altieri began his career in a boy band, moved to acting and modeling, and is now achieving recognition in (ahem) musical theater. In addition to dozens of steamy photos, Michel's virtual portfolio also features audio and video clips of his performances from "Rent" and as the lead in a musical adaptation of "The Picture of Dorian Gray." After you've got your perv on, watch Michel's audition for the Strasberg Institute. It's a monologue from "Cool Hand Luke" while on his knees. It probably sounds better in Italian, but it sure looks good.-RM
