‘Hollyoaks’ hunk strips for charity

“HOLLYOAKS” heartthrob Nico Mirallegro has stripped off to raise awareness of testicular and prostate cancer.

The Oldham actor, who plays Newt in the Channel 4 soap, is the centrefold for the January edition of Cosmopolitan.

And he follows the likes of film star Ewan McGregor, TV’s Graham Norton, singer Lenny Kravitz and rugby player Danny Cipriani — all of whom have posed for the magazine in the past.

The shoot highlights the work of Everyman, the testicular and prostate cancer charity.

In an interview Nico tells Cosmo: “I’m definitely a morning person. I wake up happy, looking forward to having my cereal.
