In an issue of Numéro Homme magazine photographer Matthias Vriens-McGrath created a very interesting and naughty editorial, Hot Shots, featuring top models Tyson Ballou and Leandro Maeder as porn stars. It’s a tantalizing journey of tongue-in-cheek references and parody of the adult film industry.

 















 

Tyson Brett Ballou (born in November 14, 1976) is a male supermodel. Discovered by the modeling agency, Page Parkes, he has become one of the industry's most sought-after male models.

Born in Garland, Texas, he began modeling at the age of 15 years old, appearing in magazines and shows in Texas. Later on, he began modeling in New York under the Ford Modeling Agency, but later signed with another agency, IMG, which was instrumental in making him one of today's most successful male models. His modeling include stints for Giorgio Armani, Versace, Exte, Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Dolce and Gabbana, among others. In 2007, he shot a jeans campaign for luxury brand 7 for all Mankind, alongside Carolyn Murphy.



















He appeared in the following ads: D&G Fragrance Anthology F/W 09, H&M F/W 09, French Connection S/S 09, Jones New York S/S 09, Armand Basi S/S 09, Armand Basi F/W 08, Boss Hugo Boss F/W 08. He is also in the following editorials: Amber's Story (Vogue Italia), Spring Scenes (V Man), Trust Me (American Vogue), Graphic Content (Details Magazine), Tyson Rocks! (Esquire (Spain)), Button It (Arena Magazine), Love/Hate (W Magazine), You Better Work (Hercules Magazine), Love (V Man).

His agencies are: New York Wilhelmina, Hamburg PMA, Paris Success, Milan Why Not, Vienna Next Company, Copenhagen UNIQUE DENMARK.

In an editorial for Hercules Magazine, You Better Work, by Giampaolo Sgura, Tyson Ballou arised to the level of Top Man Model with other four colleagues, Andreas Velencoso Segura, Terron Wood, Marlon Teixeira and Marcus Schenkenberg. A role that is confirmed but the recent ad for D&G unigender perfume where he is all naked with Naomi Campbell, Eva Herzigova, Claudia Schiffer, Noah Mills and Fernando Fernandes.

On the runways, he is one of the favourites of Carlo Pignatelli, Dolce & Gabbana , DSquared and Valentino. Maeder has been photographed by renowned photographers in the world including Steven Klein for his lucrative campains for Dolce & Gabann; photographer Bruce Weber for Abercrombie & Fitch; Mert and Markus for Roberto Cavalli, and an exclusive ad campaign for Jag Jeans in the Philippines.

His hobbies include lifting, negotiating, climbing, all those things that empower one in an overall aspect.

His first ambition is to live... he reasons, "anything I become a part of is an ambition."

Recently photography duo Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott shot Leandro Maeder and Lenz Von Johnston with female model Heidi Mount in an editorial entitled "Fall For Heidi" in the V55 issue of V Magazine. Leandro also appears in the new issue of GQ Style Deutschland by Tony Duran: a contrast of vibrant and bold fashion styling with ancient ruins; Leandro is working with Mikus Lasmanis.
