Madison Hildebrand from "Million Dollar Listing" talks to us about his "Playgirl" cover

Here's something you don't see every day: an openly gay or bisexual (he prefers the term "polyamorous") Bravo reality star-in-the-making is gracing the cover of Playgirl magazine.

Madison Hildebrand, who appeared on Million Dollar Listing last season (as "the rookie") and returns next week for Season 2 in full force, isn't your typical Playgirl coverboy. (In case you're wondering, he does "keep on his tidy whities" in the accompanying spread.) Michael Jensen had the chance to chat with Hildebrand recently at the TCA and found out why...

AfterElton.com: So how did the Playgirl cover come about?
Madison Hildebrand: Someone knew someone and they called and ... I had to digest it and ask my mom. My mom's Mormon, so I had to clear that. But it all worked out, I'm on the cover!

AE: What can you tell us about the shoot?
MH: It was fun! The theme was Risky Business and I went to the house and they actually waxed the entire wood floor and I'm running down the hallway like a hundred times, sliding into frame.

Ah, so that's where the tidy whiteys come in. Hildebrand, who is seen in the previews for the show on a date with another guy, is single for the time being ... but he has a new doberman pinscher and says she's mean! This season the show looks to have been revamped to focus on three hot young guys in the LA real estate market, and there's no sign of most of the agents from last season (most of whom were ... well, not hot young guys) in the previews. I guess we'll find out what the deal is when the show premieres on August 5th.

I've included Madison's Playgirl cover after the jump, for anyone who's interested in checking out his real estate...
