Scott Brown Cosmopolitan 1982, Long before he was a politician, the Republican candidate vying for Ted Kennedy’s U.S. Senate seat posed nude for the centerfold of Cosmo. Scott Brown won our “America’s Sexiest Man” contest and appeared in the June 1982 issue. In those days he was a 22-year-old law student at Boston College who was cramming for finals just days before stripping down for our photographer.
“Here at Cosmo we’ve had bachelors go on to be actors, models, and reality show stars, so we’re thrilled that one has gone on to become a politician,” says Kate White, Cosmo’s editor in chief. Obviously we know how to pick ’em. This particular bachelor has always had political ambitions and even admitted to being “a bit of a patriot” when we interviewed him.
Compared to some men in the GOP, this politician looks pretty damn good for his age. We bet he still has an amazing body underneath his suit and tie. There have been plenty of pics of our president running around without his shirt, so now that a precedent has been set, we’re hoping to see Scott shirtless again.
To commemorate Saturday's inauguration of Virginia governor-elect Bob McDonnell, Mark Plotkin went retro -- really retro.
The WTOP political analyst invited a handful of former Virginia governors to chat on Friday's "Politics Program With Mark Plotkin." Gerald Baliles, George Allen, Doug Wilder and Mark Warner sent their regrets -- scheduling conflicts -- but Jim Gilmore and Linwood Holton were in the studio when Plotkin announced some special guests had been arranged.
"They think this show is of such significance," Plotkin said, "that even though you haven't seen them a lot, they've decided to come back to Washington just for one hour." Enter Patrick Henry -- Virginia's first governor -- and his successor, Thomas Jefferson. (Actually, the next best thing: those men's historical interpreters from Colonial Williamsburg.)
"Oh, my gosh. Your hair's changed a little. It's supposed to be red," Holton, 86, told "Jefferson." "So's yours," Gilmore needled Holton.
Plotkin assured us this wasn't meant to be a goof: "It celebrates American history, and Virginia is so immersed and enthralled with its own history."
Scott 'The Body' Brown
"Let's talk about Scott Brown. . . . Wait until you see this guy, full-body pose. There he is. There he is. That was back in the '80s. . . . There he is. Too much information." -- Chris Matthews on MSNBC on Wednesday, once again spotlighting the 1982 Cosmopolitan centerfold that no one can resist showing. Sounds like it hasn't been a liability, either: Polls show Brown, the Republican candidate for Ted Kennedy's Senate seat in Massachusetts, neck-and-neck with Democrat Martha Coakley. The election is on Tuesday.Scott Brown, who is part of the election on Tuesday posed for a centerfold in Cosmopolitian Magazine in 1982 when he was still a university student. See the Scott Brown centerfold.
Now that he is back in the meida spotlight in the run-up till Tuesday, people are interested to see what Scott Brown looked like in the early 80s and how much he has changed since then. He is not as carefree or relaxed these days.
Scott Brown is involved in an election with Democrat Martha Coakley on Tuesday and it is expected to be an interesting race. Martha Coakley was most interested lately in Brown's health insurance, or lack of, to his staff.
