Strauss Zelnick: Fitness Freak, Cover Model
Strauss Zelnick is the former CEO of BMG Entertainment and now an investor in media companies such as Take-Two, which produces the Grand Theft Auto videogame series. Now he's a magazine cover model, too! Following up on his recent appearance in an ad campaign for Portfolio, Zelnick is featured on the cover of the November issue of Men's Fitness. There's even a video on the magazine's site in which he talks about how important fitness is to him and about how fond he is of low-fat, low-carb protein drinks. But maybe he should be focusing more attention on his work rather than, say, whey shakes? As the Times puts it, "With Take-Two's stock down nearly 34 percent in the last year, investors may be hoping he'll find a way to bulk up the share price as well as his biceps." [Dealbook]
