Chicago, IL -
Glee star Matthew Morrison appears on the December cover of DETAILS magazine in a photo shoot with Norman Jean Roy that took place September 25 in Malibu, California.
Plans to shoot a humorous cover with the Glee star were scrapped once the creative team at Details discovered what Morrison looked like shirtless.
Morrison reveals, "I definitely hooked up with a lot of girls when I was a young guy on Broadway. It was exciting. Very joyous and free." According to the article, Morrison didn't shed his inhibitions entirely. He joined a Bible-study group in college and didn't lose his virginity until he was 21. He shares that being perceived as a sex object still confuses him. "I'm not comfortable with the idea of my sex appeal, but I know in my job I have to use it. I wish I could say I got to this point in my career based on my talent, but I don't think that's true."
Other quotes from the article:
On dating: "I'm not a good friend right now. I'm not a good boyfriend. It's not that I'm selfish. I'm just focused."
On paddle boarding for exercise: "I got my own board. It's a great core workout."
On getting in tip-top shape for the photo shoot: Morrison ate well and in the final few days used a trick Sue Sylvester pushed on her cheerleading squad: a sweet potato-only diet.
Glee co-star Jane Lynch said about Morrison, "You get the sense he knows he can write his own ticket. If I were going to come back as someone, I'd come back as Matt Morrison."
Matthew Morrison shares his workout secrets in Detail's Celebrity Workout and shows us his fitness regimen. "I think anyone can look like this if you have a month," Morrison says.
