From Ningin: The title says it all folks. That’s right. Japanese soccer player Hidetoshi Nakata stars in the new Calvin Klein X Underwear campaign with Twilighter Kellan Lutz, Fernando Verdasco, Mehcad Brooks (who you may know from Desperate Housewives and Glory Road). You know it’s a good day when one of the first things you see is this fantastic ad for “Mark your Spot” basically filled with hot guys with hot bodies with words being bleeped out about their . . . *cough* More »
