Coverboy: Greg
Act fast, or you might miss this man on the move
If you have good taste in underpants, you may well have already seen Greg, who works at the Calvin Klein Underwear shop in Georgetown. Regardless of your taste in unmentionables, you may have also spotted Greg, 25, at The Fireplace or Aqua Nightclub — his regular haunts. But wherever you may see him, don’t get to used to the sight. The Los Angeles native moved to metro D.C. for two reasons: A friend already lived here, and it’s close to New York. After all, Greg has his sites set on being a model. ”I think I’ll be moving away probably in a year,” says Greg. Single, he adds the men have D.C haven’t done too much to change his mind. ”Some of the guys I’ve come across in D.C. haven’t been consistent,” he says.
