CAN YOU GUESS WHAT OCHO CINCO STANDS FOR?If you thought
Terrell Owens loved the limelight, get a load of that
Chad "Ocho Cinco" Johnson. Besides posing nude on a mock up cover of ESPN magazine and supposedly jump-starting a line of extra large condoms, the Cincinnati Bengals star player is making sure he diversifies so he becomes the ultimate athlete turned entertainer. The Hershey bar-colored jock recently joined the cast of 'Dancing with the Stars,' and he's busy planning another television venture – his very-own VH1 show.
"People think they know Ocho Cinco. Well, they're really gonna know me now," he told the magazine. "We've already filmed a whole season of stuff. VH1. BET. MTV. Everyone wants it. VH1 is offering more money than the rest."
VH1 wins.
In the same vein as
Ray J's 'For the Love of Ray J' and
Flavor Flav's 'Flavor of Love,' Johnson's upcoming dating reality show, 'The Tournament' will follow the 32 year-old as he looks for his main squeeze. This summer, the father of four will choose 16 women from the four regions of the country to compete for his love and affection.
Cameras caught Ochocinco, as he is known (it means eight five in Spanish), last week jogging in a Los Angeles park wearing nothing but sneakers. The charismatic cat has said he is crushing hard for 'Modern Family' star
Sofia Vergara. But until she reciprocates his feelings, or his other crush, 'Dancing' co-star
Kate Gosselin, he's searching for Miss Right.
Johnson makes his debut on 'Dancing with the Stars' March 22 and his dating show will premiere in July 2010. [
