Chippendale Challenge

This next challenge would have most men shaking in their boxers. Adam, a college professor at UCLA and a new dad, traded his textbooks for a thong. But will he pass as a Chippendale's dancer on TLC's Faking It?

Three dedicated coaches had just 30 days to whip 6'6", skinny, uncoordinated Adam into a sexy stud. In his final performance, Adam performed for a panel of judges with some real Chippendale dancers and fooled the judges. He got his A+!

Adam says the experience has changed him a great deal. "Starting from step one, having this seemingly impossible goal and going all the way through it gave me confidence. That's actually what allowed me to change my life." Adam took a year off from teaching to pursue his dream: writing a book.
