**Julie** Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 Soap star comes clean on undie role Herald Sun March 23 2008 HERE is the brief. Home and Away's Paul O'Brien has dropped his dacks and is looking to get into someone's undies. The handsome soap star is keen to land a contract as the celebrity face of an underwear label. In a highly unorthodox move, he has posed for a series of shots in his briefs to show undie makers that he has what it takes to be the face -- and body -- of a brand. "My agent has got the pictures and is deciding what to do with them," O'Brien said. "We are interested in chasing an endorsement. I am looking for someone to put their undies on me." It is a bold move, but then blokes who usually land underwear campaigns aren't really shy, retiring types. O'Brien was among a host of stars lending their support to the Good Friday Appeal at the Telstra Dome on Friday. O'Brien, partnered with Jade MacRae on Channel 7's It Takes Two, is out of contract with Home and Away in October. "I am really keen to see if Home and Away will want to hold on to me," he said. The 2006 Logie winner for best new talent plans to return to London at the end of the year, having been booked for a panto production of Robin Hood.

emmasi Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 *Snort.* That's... funny On anyone else, this might look desperate and... weird... but Paul strikes me as a pretty outgoing guy who's just testing his luck and seeing where it'll take him. Good luck to him Interesting that his contract's finally up. I wouldn't count on it being renewed. How many times can they hospitalize a character?? I think they've run out of places to go with him.

claire_louise Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 Interesting that his contract's finally up. I wouldn't count on it being renewed. How many times can they hospitalize a character?? I think they've run out of places to go with him. I agree. And they must realise that a lot of viewers are getting thoroughly sick of the Jack and Martha saga, even some of those who were originally big JM fans. If Jodi's contract is up at the same time I'd say they'll leave together, but if not I can see them killing Jack off (after a reunion with Martha of course, just to up the kleenex quota!). Seriously though, how arrogant do you have to be to do something like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DinerLandlord Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 October, eh. Sooner than I thought. I'll have to mark that on my calendar. Party in my house this October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 Doesnt sound like he's very confident that he'll be kept on after October?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnp52td Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 If Jodi decides to leave there will be no point for him to be there. the title of this thread makes me laugh, it reminds me of skid marks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valli Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 Seriously? Paul wants to be an underwear model? That's hilarious! Wouldn't mind seeing him in underwear, but maybe he should train a little bit more first His stomach doesn't meet the standards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Lynd~ Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 Seriously though, how arrogant do you have to be to do something like this? He's not arrogant though i can see how it could come across that way.As Jem said,he's just having fun and seeing where it takes him.And are you trying to tell me you wouldn't want to see them ?

Jamey-Maria Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 Well there was an article today about Jodi thinking of launching an underwear range, so I'm sure she can make a male line as well and Paul can model for them, hehe. Unless of course he would prefer to model the female line instead... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
