17-year-old Johnny Wells was a very handsome young man, and you'd have called him a babe magnet, but I'm afraid they didn't have that phrase back in 1961. He decided to capitalize on his looks and the response they earned from women, invested in a haircut and a good wardrobe, moved out of his slum apartment and into a budget hotel, and reinvented himself as a gigolo.
