The 1983 made-for-TV movie “Making of A Male Model” stars Jon-Erik Hexum and Joan Collins in a sexy, campy tale about the price of fame. Joan Collins was a former Hollywood actress who became a household name in the 80’s playing a glamorous villain on Aaron Spelling’s prime-time soap opera “Dynasty.” Jon-Erik Hexum was an up-and-coming heartthrob whose life was cut short by an on-set accident with a prop gun just one year after “Male Model” aired. The film serves as a time capsule for Jon-Erik Hexum's beauty, talent and potential. He shines in this fun, campy movie that gender flips the usual cautionary tale of fame—a kind of “Valley of the Ken Dolls.” Jeff Conaway co-stars as Chuck, a former super-model who is falling into drug addiction. Like Chuck, Conaway struggled with addiction after his break out role in "Grease." Stay tuned as we deep dive into this fun movie with many tragic off-screen endings.
