Mario Lopez flexing, feuding with Nick Adams
It's tough being a hunk like Mario Lopez, especially when some one stud is proving to be the Zack Morris (or in this case, Zach the dancer) to your A.C. Slater. The New York Post's Page Six says Lopez is feuding with A Chorus Line co-star Nick Adams over the size of their ... biceps.
The tabloid says Lopez refused to wear his character Zach's costume, a long-sleeved sweater, opting instead for a short-sleeved shirt to show off the pipes. He then asked Adams, playing assistant choreographer Larry, to wear a baggy hoodie instead of a tank top. The reason? Adams is freakin' ripped (see right).
It can't help matters that men's underwear company 2(x)ist has picked Adams for a shirtless ad campaign and not Lopez.
"Nick's very masculine, sexy, modern. It's totally all about his body," 2(x)ist creative director Jason Scarlatti told the Post. "Mario is a good-looking guy, but Nick had it. He's up and coming, the new face of sexy. He's original. He's hot."
On second thought, maybe Mario is more the Screech of the group now.

Actually, as working actors in Broadway shows, they DON'T have as much free time as you think they do. They have pretty heave rehearsal schedules most days.

What people don't realize is that they have the tons of time to go to a gym. Most people do not have the free time that they have to look like that.
