Scott. Layne is actually my middle name and the one I chose for my acting career.
I’m one of the two owners of The Hollywood Men show and though retired from dancing in 2004, I still MC the shows and occasionally fill-in with some of the routines.
My ethnicity is German, Scottish, French, and American Indian.
I’m originally from the mid-West but moved to California in the late 80’s after touring the world modeling and working for Chippendales from 1983 through 1994.
I was born in Indiana but grew up in the suburbs of Detroit. I have very strong family values and talk to my Mother and Father almost daily. I was pretty much a loner as a kid and didn’t come out of my shell until I joined swing choir in High School.
After graduating High School, I was fortunate enough to be accepted to the United States Air Force Academy. I made it through hell week and acceptance but decided it wasn’t for me so I left to pursue a career in modeling and acting.
I always wonder where my military career would have led but I love where I am in life and wouldn’t change a thing. During the day, I always stay busy trying to improve the quality of the show and deal with the daily demands of running a business as well as a household.
I am married and have two kids but for their privacy, I’ll stick to writing about myself only.
I have two Australian Sheppard dogs, three Devon Rex cats, and my son has a snake and some fish.
I have a gym at my home but usually end up going to the local gym since there are too many distractions at home. I mix cardio with weight training for the best results.
For enjoyment I like to play golf and take my boat and Seadoo to the ocean frequently.
I’m 53 years old now but people tell me I look early-forties at most. I attribute that to my regimen of diet and exercise, specifically my morning nutra-bullet full of fruit and coconut water.
I’m turned off by pretentious and shallow people whose shortcomings make them judge others to disguise their own insecurities.
Conversely, I’m turned on by people that pursue their dreams with passion and have equal respect for those around them.
My dream is to continue working to make The Hollywood Men all that it can be while always taking time to enjoy the things in life I’ve been lucky enough to obtain. The people I work with are like family and I’ll always enjoy being a part of each of their dreams and aspirations while pursuing my own.
Congratulations Scott on your great success! Always knew you would make it. Hope your mom is doing well. I live in FL now married 3 kids.
Scott you still look unbelievable. We worked at the same club in Kitchener Ontario back in the good old days. I’m with you on the diet and exercise. Bring your show to Canada.
All the best.

I suddenly got an email show announcement from the hwmen.com; I’ve been on the list going back to 2006 but things quieted down during the pandemic. The email led me to this site. It’s great to hear from you guys again and see that The HW Men are actively performing! Scott Layne, I remember you as far back as the Frederick’s of Hollywood catalogs. I wonder, was that the ’90s, or early 2000s? I think I still have some of those!
First of, I would like to start by saying that I went to the show with my sister on April 5. I thought that the show was great and I really enjoyed watching it even though I’m a guy and I would recommend the show to anyone.
I have some important questions concerning the Latin Lover strip act. It’s actually a concern. I know that the participant has to drink champagne with Victor in this strip act. Can the champagne be replaced with a non-alcoholic drink? Some girls might not be okay with drinking alcohol. If a girl who doesn’t drink alcohol wants to participate in this strip act, then is it possible for the champagne to be replaced with a non-alcoholic beverage?
Of course
My friends and I were overjoyed by the show and the performers. We loved the sensual movements, the never ending tease and the gaze of their eyes. They kept us captivated thru the entire show. In addition, they are very professional, respectful, charismatic and they know how to give a great show without being vulgar. Thank you, we will be seeing more of you guys soon!
Hey there, I was wondering if it is required to come in a group? I don’t have any close female friends and I was hoping if I could come on my own in the future when I have/get the time.
And yes my last name is just like America but without the leading ‘a’.
Thanks,
Savannah Merica.
Hey Savannah,
You can join us when in need of some fun girls to hang with… :-).
We’re not the youngest on the block but we still enjoy going out in LA or Hollywood. We’ve seen the HW men twice.
How old are you though?
Of course you can come solo Savannah, ladies do so all the time and I’m sure you’ll make lots of new friends.
Thanks and see you at the show,
Scott Layne
Hi Scott-thank you for the mailing address, I’ll look forward to keep in touch. How long have you been an HW Men performer, what you think of Hollywood, California?2CD
I’ve been in the business since 1980 but started Hollywood Men in January of 1995. I love Hollywood for work but would never consider living there again.
Take care,
Scott
What made you want to join your swing choir? How long have you been dancing? Back in high school I was apart of the show choir, probably not the same thing though lol but it took a hammer to my shell and started an interest for dance.
I was kind of a loaner in High School, didn’t really fit in with any of the “clicks”. Swing choir got me out of my shell and once I got a taste of the stage, I never looked back. I knew I had found my calling!
I saw an episode of Arrested Development and saw Scott at the “cop/stripper” scene. I started smiling like mad, remembering driving to Rubidoux to see you every Thursday. Those were the days! Thanks for the smile!
Merry Christmas to you and all of the Hollywood Men! And, thank you for bringing so much joy to the world! Over the years, the Hollywood Men have introduced some of the handsomest/sexiest men to the world. You are a group of uninhibited Adonises!
Thank you so much!
And, Happy New Year!
Thanks Adrian,
I always love reading your comments, they always bring a smile to my face. Happy Holidays,
Scott
