“Once you fully understand and embrace the fact that ‘Life is in the blood’, it changes everything!”
For me, Charles Wahlheim was the face, and body of Chippendales in the early 90's. His loin cloth donned body was on the cover of magazines and calendars whenever you were in a book or magazine store at the time. It was Charles iconic shot that prompted me to buy the only and only Chippendales calendar I purchased in the early 90's. His incredible face, body and blonde hair appeared exactly what Chippendales wanted as the look for their brand in the 90's.
Like many of his Chippendale counter parts, Wahleim, now 55, did turns on TV in shows such as Santa Barbara, Parker Lewis Can't Lose, Pacific Blue, Coach and Roseanne. His connection to Hollywood was also cemented with his marriage to actress Teri Copley, and as far as I can tell, the two remain married today.
Wahlheim went on to focus on heath and nutrition and authored a book, The Truth: Claiming Your Birthright to Health, A Life Changing Perspective. Wahleim has a Facebook fan page, focused on promoting his book and wellness work, but he doesn't appear to have updated it in a few years. You can still check it out HERE:
