Out Magazine’s Owner Offers Cash to Make Levi Johnston Into a Porn Star

levijohnstongq

Unzipped, the fresh-faced porn mag that previously trafficked in political scandal skin, is taking a cue from Playboy: Make an offer to pay cash to get a celebrity to strip down! And generate oodles of publicity! At bat: Levi Johnston.

The supposed gay icon (sorry, no) and baby daddy to Sarah Palin’s daughter previously stripped down for GQ. And he told Bravo chief gay Andy Cohen that he loves his gay fans!

And now Unzipped, published by Here Media’s Paul Colichman (but shhh, the Out, Advocate, and hereTV owner doesn’t want you to know he’s a porn proprietor), is making him the offer of a news cycle lifetime: ones of thousands of dollars to get naked.

Actually, we’re not sure how much Unzipped is offering (its press release doesn’t say), but it can’t include too many zeroes: Print media is hurting in the bank ledger department.

But what else does Levi have going for him? Unlike his ex-future-mother-in-law, he doesn’t have TV show offers flowing in; just guest spots. And he told Cohen that, if the money were right, he would strip down. It’s either that or hunting sheep. From helicopters!

Also: He’s got a kid to support, and all good parents turn to skin pics to pay for diapers and tuition.
