Everybody Knows

Although you’d never guess it from looking at these sexy shots, Jordan’s modeling career began just a little over a year ago. He wasn’t into the idea at first, despite much encouragement from family and close friends, but when he stepped in for an absent model on a friend’s photo shoot at the last minute, his whole life changed. He was a natural.

Get In His Head

On March 1st, Jordan added “author” to his growing list of passions and accomplishments. He published his first book, Mind of a Maniac, and he’s very proud of it. It’s a memoir made up of emotionally-charged poems that tell his life story. If you really want to get into his head, ladies, you better grab your copy and start reading.

Overnight Success

“Success came so quickly, so it was surprising,” says Jordan. “I know a lot of people who’ve been doing this for a long time. I guess it was meant to be. I used to hate taking pictures. It’s a blessing.”

PYT Seeking True Love

At 27, Jordan sure is one pretty young thing. And guess what, ladies? He’s filing “single” on his taxes too! He enjoys a woman who’s beautiful, honest and confident. “A woman can just exude confidence,” he says. “She shouldn’t have to say anything about who she is. You should just know.”

The Perfect Catch

We asked Jordan what makes him a great catch and his answer melted our hearts away. “I was raised by my grandmother,” he explains. “She experienced a lot. She would always explain the world to me, and women too. She always taught me what to do and what not to do. She taught me to be honest. I’m always straightforward.”
