In the vibrant tapestry of life, few individuals can boast a journey as multifaceted as Rick Wayne’s. Born on the enchanting Caribbean island of Saint Lucia, Rick Wayne transcended conventional boundaries to become a British Army soldier, a pop sensation, a prolific author, a charismatic talk show host, a dedicated politician, a distinguished Mr. World, and even a daring nude male pinup.
Rick’s odyssey began early when he relocated to England during his youth. At a tender age of 19, he posed for photographs that would, decades later, resurface as ammunition in the arsenal of political opponents. By then, he had returned to the embrace of Saint Lucia, founded a prominent publishing company, and ignited his passion for politics.

In a daring move, Rick Wayne authored an article that headlined, “Did you say gay for pay?” In it, he fearlessly mocked politicians who attempted to exploit his youthful pictures, displaying them outside the hallowed halls of the Saint Lucian Parliament House.
Now, you might wonder, dear reader, why would mature, seemingly rugged men take an interest in the nude, or rather, naked, images of Rick Wayne from his 19-year-old self? Well, as they say, chacun à son goût (to each their own). People find their fascinations in various ways.
Rick Wayne firmly asserts his heterosexuality. Bob Mizer, ever the authority on a model’s preferences, echoed the sentiment. Thus, we can reasonably assume that Rick was, and is, straight, categorizing his modeling career as “gay for pay.” While he did pose for some rather campy duo photographs with other well-toned young men, they never involved actual sexual contact.
Though the explicit shots are beyond the scope of our presentation here, Rick Wayne also lent his physique to numerous “nitty-gritty raunch” images. (A friendly tip: Google can be your guide in this regard.)
Rick Wayne’s illustrious journey also encompassed a successful bodybuilding career, adorned with titles such as Mr. Europe 1964 and Mr. World 1967. In addition to his physical prowess, he evolved into a renowned writer within the sport. Upon returning to his beloved Saint Lucia, he seamlessly transitioned his pen from muscles to politics, leaving an indelible mark on both realms. Today, at 85 years old, Rick Wayne stands as a testament to a life well-lived and an enduring legacy.
