While owning and operating a GNC store, Billy has continued to explore opportunities in the entertainment industry. With the ability to model, sing, and act, word of his presence spread to Cosmopolitan magazine. During the summer of 2000, after being featured in the magazine as Idaho’s sexiest bachelor, Billy became an instant celebrity in his hometown. Several television, radio, and print ads soon followed and so did a large fan following. Thousands of letters and emails from all over the world have filled his mailboxes. “I love being able to talk to people that are sometimes hundreds, even thousands of miles away. For a person to take the time to write to me is beyond imagination, I’m very thankful.”

Putting his personality and stage skills to the test, Fox entertainment contacted Billy to be a contestant in the “Sexiest Bachelor in America” pageant which aired nation-wide in October of 2000. Billy showed everyone his stuff by singing an excerpt from a Backstreet Boys song and placing in the top 10 out of 51 competitors. “I want to establish myself as a well-rounded entertainer and every day you can count on me getting closer to that goal.”

Since then, Billy has appeared in on the Maury Povich show where he was voted one of the most memorable guests of the year, Jenny Jones, such magazines as People, Life&Style, Star, the Enquirer, television commercials, and countless newspaper and online articles. In 2003, the world-famous Chippendales signed Billy for an image contract to be used in photos, live shows, and personal appearances. In the past two years, he has been working non-stop touring the globe and living his dream. He’s been called the “gentleman” in the entertainment business for his kindness and generosity toward fans.
