Ellen heard the great news that Matthew McConaughey won’t be participating in the hotly anticipated upcoming Magic Mike sequel, so she’s doing her best to fill his former role for Warner Bros. President Greg Silverman.
This week, she invited her beloved gardener Nick back to set for an exclusive audition because, let’s face it, this man needs to be paid to take his clothes off and wiggle his bulge in something that’ll be available on DVD next year.
Nick, as you know, is actually Billy Reilich from The Cream Pies. He is also gorgeous.
Watch Ellen pull some strings to get Nick an audition below, and cross your fingers that it works in his favor!
How about we take this to the next level?

So, curious to hear what others’ opinions are on this:
Ellen is a lesbian. Why does she not feature models that “cater” to her preferences? Why is she acting like she’s ogling men (and not just this guy, she frequently has male models on her show). Would her actions be deemed different if she had scantily clad female models on her show? Is she “selling out” to her majority population of straight women who want to see the male models?

@cflekken: I’m going to assume that, since her audience is largely made up of straight women, she’s showing off people that she knows will appeal to them. i don’t know if it’s ‘selling out’ so much as it it’s good business.

Her audience is basically straight women and gay men.

@cflekken: She doesn’t act like she’s ogling them. She looks like she’s pimping them out.

It’s called show business for a reason.

Ellen needs more female tits on her show.

He’s getting paid nothing for this, Ellen is just pimping him out. She used her house keeper a few years ago for comedy bits similarly. She knows how to keep the ratings which guarantees the 10’s of millions she is paid. Be damned everyone else.

Wow the things people come up with to criticize and judge. As has been pointed out, Ellen’s audience is largely straight women and gay men. She is in the business of entertaining her audience.

@Spike: You realize he is not *actually* her gardener, right?

I’ll be surprised if he can act well enough to get a big part now, but we all have to start somewhere.
And Dear God he is hot!!!
