| Soap Star Fired for Posing Nude |
Soap star Marcus Patrick was recently fired from his role as Jett Carver on the popular daytime drama Days of Our Lives and rumors has it the decision to ax the star came after he posed nude for the September issue of softcore magazine Playgirl. While High School Musical star Vanessa Hudgens actually got a pay raise after her nude photo scandal, the British born soap hunk was apparently not so lucky. Producers on Days insist the decision was made to fire the character long before Marcus' nude photos hit the newsstand, but some insiders claim NBC executives were less than happy with Patrick showing his stuff in the magazine. This marks the second time that Patrick has been axed by a soap. He joined All My Children as Jamal Cudahy in June 2006, but asked to be released just three months later. Marcus Patrick has also appeared in the indie gay flick Dirty Laundry.
