"He makes female viewers swoon as the brooding Liam Court on The CW&amp;apos;s 90210, but just who is Matt Lanter? Here, Us Weekly uncovers five fun facts about the Ohio native who got his start as a hunky male model on reality TV.\r\n\r\n1. Lanter is more than just a pretty face -- though his good looks did earn him his first big break. In 2004, Lanter appeared on the Bravo reality series Manhunt: The Search for America&amp;apos;s Most Gorgeous Model. Hosted by Carmen Electra, the series -- similar to America&amp;apos;s Next Top Model -- was won by Jon Jonsson.\r\n2. He&amp;apos;s a self-professed tech nerd. A huge Star Wars aficionado, Lanter lends his voice to the television series Star Wars: The Clone Wars, as well as its three video games.\r\n\r\n3. When he&amp;apos;s not busy planning his upcoming wedding to fiancee Angela Stacy, he&amp;apos;s a total homebody. &amp;quot;[We usually] sit at home and chill and sit in the hot tub or watch The Walking Dead,&amp;quot; the actor tells Us. &amp;quot;We&amp;apos;re kind of homebodies and like to stay home and just enjoy each other, our place and our dog.&amp;quot;\r\n4. Lanter is a sports nut. Once a bat boy for the Atlanta Braves, Lanter played baseball, football and golf before majoring in sports business at the University of Georgia.\r\n\r\n5. Should 90210 ever get made into a movie, Lanter knows just the actor he wants to portray Liam. &amp;quot;I would aim high, like Leonardo DiCaprio or something,&amp;quot; Lanter laughed of the A-lister. &amp;quot;That guy does amazing work! Put it out there -- see if he calls back!&amp;quot;\r\n90210 airs Mondays at 8 p.m. (EST) on The CW."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
