Anthony Anderson recruits for ‘The Real Full Monty’

The Real Full Monty

Anthony Anderson is striping down for charity. The Emmy-nominated actor and host is recruiting his famous friends to help support prostate cancer research. Anderson enlists himself, Taye Diggs (All American, How Stella Got Her Groove Back), Chris Jones (3x Super Bowl Champion, Kansas City Chiefs), Tyler Posey (Teen Wolf), Bruno Tonioli (Dancing with the Stars) and James Van Der Beek (Dawson’s Creek, Varsity Blues) to encourage men to get checked and strip the stigma around prostate, testicular and colorectal cancer. The event takes place on Monday, December 9 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.

During the two-hour special, Anderson will lead the men as they train and rehearse for the most revealing performance of their careers, culminating with a big strip-tease dance, choreographed by Emmy Award-winner Mandy Moore (Choreographer for So You Think You Can Dance, La La Land, and Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour), where they will bare all in front of a live audience. Leading up to the final disrobing, the men will expand their limits, test their modesty and strengthen their bond with a series of rehearsals and experiences, both private and public, designed to build confidence and remove them far from their comfort zone and forge a brotherhood. Along the way, each of the celebrities will share their personal stories of how cancer has impacted their lives.
