New York, Feb 21: US reality show 'Shahs of Sunset' star Mike Shouhed posed for an upcoming issue of Playgirl for naked glory rather than cash, according to reports.

A source close to his Bravo show told the New York Post that Shouhed "got paid only 12,000 dollars" to take his clothes off.

The reality star has so far stayed quiet on how much he has exposed in the spread, but sources joked that for 12,000 dollars he'd have gotten paid about 1,333 dollars per inch.

Earlier, Shouhed reportedly said that he'd have to see how he felt about going full-frontal in the mag.

He's added that he did the photoshoot to let women know that Persian men are the real deal, and if they haven't tried one, they should. (ANI)
