In 2008, Mario Lopez seemed sure about one thing: hed keep himself covered in public around cameras.

But aftertelling PEOPLE, My shirtless photo-shoot days are behind me, the Extra host, who was covered in gold paint, showed off his stellar physique on Sunday while shooting promos for his latest underwear line, MaLo by Mario Lopez, which also includes undershirts and workout tees.

That was true, as far as posing just to pose goes, Lopez told PEOPLE of his vow to keep his shirt on. But Im selling underwear! There a purpose. In there and a purpose. Ive kept true to my word and Ive never posed just to pose for artistic sake or whatever. And believe me, I get asked a lot.

Lopezs line, currently sold at Target, is about to launch in a large selection of Kmart stores... [via Off The Rack]
