Not even hats will be left on in Channel 7’s upcoming The Real Full Monty!
But just who will be baring all in the feel-good show?
Former NRL hunk Matt Cooper, radio jock Brendan ‘Jonesy’ Jones, AFL’s Campbell Brown and Brian ‘BT’ Taylor have all signed on to get their kit off for the raunchy event.
Comedian Shane Jacobson, iron man Jett Kenny, model Kris Smith and Sunrise’s weather presenter Sam Mac complete the eight-man strip show which pays homage to iconic comedy The Full Monty.
As well as performing, Shane Jacobson will host alongside Todd McKenney. The choreographer will put the stars through their paces and get the boys up to scratch for their big reveal.
The one-off special aims to raise awareness for cancer and men’s health-related issues. It was recorded in front of a cheering audience at Sydney’s Enmore Theatre.
Jonesy, of the ‘Jonesy and Amanda’ radio show, tells The Daily Telegraph the event was a “learning” experience for him.
“[I found] I don’t mind wearing a G-string,” he laughs.
Sam Mac, however, could see the funny side to the idea of a bunch of celebrities ripping off red Velcro G-strings.
“I thought it was eight regular blokes!” Sam says. “I got stitched up royally.”
Sam confesses that he got his first ever spray tan in an extreme shade of “Fijian chocolate mousse” in the lead up to the event.
Shane says that stripping down for The Real Full Monty was as scary as bungee jumping. However, he hopes the event draws awareness to the stigma that surrounds men’s cancer diagnoses.
“If the blokes we round up are brave enough to go the Full Monty, then the men of Australia can be brave enough to talk about cancer,” he says.
