Five Questions With Paul Ramirez


You may remember Paul Ramirez as one of the sexy guys who worked a party in nothing but a pair of 2(x)ist underwear on Season One of "The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency." I recently caught up with the handsome model/actor to see what he's been doing since the show wrapped and to see if he will be part of a rumored second season:

1. Hey, Paul. So tell your fans what you're working on these days.
Well, first off there will be a Season Two of Janice however I will not be doing it. Although the first season was a lot of fun (NY ROCKS), at this point reality TV no longer behooves me. The only thing about the whole show I will truly miss is Janice. As nutty as she is, she truly is a magnificent person. Aside from simply outgrowing the show, there are some other reasons I decided against it but they are not worth mentioning. These days I am auditioning for TV and gearing up for my first pilot season in Los Angeles. I also write and have plenty of things to keep myself busy.

2. What's the best part of your newfound fame?
The best part of fame is that it is a conversation piece and fun for my friends and family. I would be lying if I said it didn't make me smile when someone recognizes me. There's nothing more bizarre than giving your first autograph. What's funnier is being told I look like Paul Ramirez!!!

3. Any dark side to it?
Dark side of fame? None yet, but I'll keep you posted.

4. How do you stay in such great shape?
Well, first off there is no secret....WORK! I don't care what it is, if it looks difficult it probably took work. My body is my canvas. Sculpting an aesthetically pleasing body is a passion of mine and one I am always trying to refine. I basically look in the mirror and see what needs work. Abs are only a 6 pack? Ok, we do more abs 'til we have eight. Shoulders are a little flat, ok we start off with shoulders instead of chest. If I'm looking puffy I do bikram yoga and deplete salt. Basically my regimen is 5 days of weights and cardio, 1 day of Bikram Yoga and a 36 hour distilled water fast. Never underestimate what a water fast a week will do for the body, skin, organs, energy, sex drive etc. Aside from the workout my diet is flawless (with the exception of sundays where I can be found at THE GRIDDLE on Sunset devouring a "GOLDEN TICKET" pancake). Low carb meals are the norm and I always say if you are going to cheat, cheat with meat! That's protein ... get your head out of the gutter.

5. Any feelings about having a gay following? I get a lot of hits on my blog for the entries that involve you -- and many requests for new photos.
My girlfriend thinks it is hilarious! Me, well I just say I am blessed to have any admirers period. Thank you Kenneth in the 212 for caring and I will see you in NY where we can share a slice of JOHN's pizza! Tell my fans thank you. I will be posting new pics soon so I'll keep you posted.

Thanks, Paul! Definitely count me in for pizza ...
