Who’s the sexy model embracing Luann on this August cover? Born on the 4th of July (1993), Brandon Good hails from Indiana, Pennsylvania. He’s walked the runways all over the world.
Brandon, what is your idea of happiness?
Waking up before the sun, matcha with oat milk (I drink it like a fiend), getting a sweaty workout, and feeling completely content with where I’m at and who I am. There’s power in knowing you’re exactly where you’re meant to be
Your favorite movie?
Anything Vince Vaughn. His humor is chaotic and real. He’s like a big kid who doesn’t mind looking dumb, and I love that. Life is better when you’re okay with looking stupid sometimes. I feel the same way. Wedding Crashers is a favorite. Making up stories, breaking the rules, seeing how far you can take it. It’s fun, it’s ridiculous, and I love that energy.
What is your workout routine?
I like to keep my muscles guessing. Throw them off, keep it interesting, keep them surprised. You never want them getting too comfortable. Same approach in life.

The living person you most admire.
Me, ten years from now. That’s the guy I think about when I make big decisions. I’m always asking, “What would future Brandon do?”
What is the accomplishment you’re proudest of?
My mindset. The way I’ve learned to see everything, good or bad, as a lesson. Every moment has something to teach you if you’re paying attention. That shift changed everything for me.
Where would you like to live?
Honestly, I could live anywhere. I love New York’s energy, but I also love the quiet of my hometown. In small towns, nobody cares what campaign you’re working on or who you’re dating. It’s real life, slow, simple, and full of weird little stories. I feel the most creative when I slow down and get bored. That’s when the best ideas show up.

Who is your favorite singer?
Mon Rovîa. His music feels honest and grounded. You can tell he’s been through it, but there’s this calm wisdom in the way he tells his story.
What do you most dislike?
Performative people. That whole “I’m too cool” act is exhausting. I also hate wet socks, uncooked onions, and bullies. People who think they’re above others never made sense to me.
Are you single? In a relationship?
I’m in a relationship. My girlfriend, Ashley, loves me through all my layers…the obsessive moments, the soft moments, the weirdest ones. As she’ll tell you, I’m definitely one of the weirdest people in the world, and she accepts that fully. That’s what I love and appreciate most.

Your favorite travel destination?
Anywhere with water and a sense of adventure. I love the beach, that feeling of time standing still, living on island time where nothing matters except the next swim or the next laugh. I feel the most alive when I let the day surprise me.
Which sports do you practice?
Pretty much anything with a ball. Football, soccer, golf, pickleball. Lately I’ve been back on my unicycle, which I used to ride as a kid. It’s weird and takes balance.
What is your ideal place to make love?
Anywhere it feels like you’re breaking a rule. In the car, in the ocean, in the bathroom at a party. Places where you’re taking in every element and it feels raw and real. It’s all about the thrill and the connection.

If you could change one thing about your body, what would you change?
There’s nothing I’d actually change now. I’ve had plenty of insecurities, and I’ve put in the work to accept myself. These days, I’d probably just want my eyes to smile as much as my mouth does.
Your favorite food?
Pizza. Every time. Fold the slice, embrace the grease, live in the moment. Pizza is a full experience, not just a food. I’m not sure if I could live without it.
What is your most treasured possession?
My curiosity. I question everything! the small stuff, the big stuff, the stuff nobody even thinks to ask. It keeps me moving forward and makes life endlessly interesting.
