T.O. Taking His Act to the Catwalk

With Gisele Bundchen out of commission after popping out Tom Brady’s calf, maybe a fresh face can step up and take her place for a while.

Someone like Terrell Owens?

That’s right baby.  T.O. is taking his diva attitude and sculpted abs to the fashion runway.  Owens, the mercurial Buffalo Bills receiver, has been signed by Wilhelmina Models.

It seems appropriate to me–he’s conquered the football world, reality TV and breakfast cereal.  Why not make the move to the runway, where he’ll join other athletes turned models such as Roy Jones Jr., and the always sexy Andrei Kirilenko.

Here is Owens’ thoughts on the union…

“Well, I’m always putting my hands in and feeding into something,” Owens said after practice Wednesday, noting Wilhelmina approached him with the offer. “When you’ve got some good looks like myself, you’ve got to take full advantage of it.”

But don’t think T.O. is ready to trade in his cleats for a pair of soft Italian leather pumps–Owens says he plans on playing two more years, at the minimum.

Damn.  Football, reality TV, his own line of t-shirts, a breakfast cereal, and now, modelling?  What’s T.O. going to do next?  Write a children’s book?

Umm…nevermind.
