He becomes a hit.After winning the championship as the best male stripper an agent contacts John giving him false hope of becoming famous, but even after John agrees he later learns that no one wants to hire a stripper...This was a truly great movie to watch. Seeing Gregory Harrison in a brilliant performance, especially his dancing it was just terrific. Marc Singer's character was a junkie, who let fame go to his head and his dress sense was terrible, but hey those were the 80's and I never got a chance to see this movie because I had just started kindergarten at that time so thank god I missed the 80's!Great movie, terrific acting, but terrible dress code.
