Chad Michael Murray Flashes “Naughty Elf” Undies In Sexy ‘Merry Gentlemen’ Striptease Number 

Not only will you get to see Chad Michael Murray shirtless in The Merry Gentlemen on Netflix, you’ll also get to see Chad Michael Murray—very briefly, pun intended—pantless.

The Merry Gentlemen, which began streaming on Netflix today, follows in the footsteps of last week’s Netflix original Christmas movie, Hot Frosty, by offering up some holiday-themed eye candy. Directed by Peter Sullivan, with a screenplay by Marla Sokoloff, the film stars Brit Robertson as Ashley, a professional dancer who’s determined to save the financially-struggling music venue owned by her parents. Ashley hatches a plan to pay back her parents $30,000 debt, which, essentially, boils down to transforming this beloved small town bar into a male strip club. She recruits some local hot guys—including the cranky handyman, Luke (played by Chad Michael Murray)—and gets to work teaching them some saucy, festive footwork.

Though Luke is reluctant at first, he agrees to play along. He even starts to have fun… just as soon as he gets over his stage fright. Murray and his merry band of hot guys (Marc Anthony Samuel, Hector David Jr., Colt Prattes, and Maxwell Caulfield) perform several times over the course of the film. But the most titillating number—and the one where Murray flashes the most skin—is the first, which comes about 30 minutes in, and features the guys as sexy construction workers.

Set to an EDM remix of “God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen,” these beefcakes stomp around the stage, flexing their considerable muscles, thrusting their pelvis, shedding their high-visibility vests, and, at one point, caresses their crotch with a string of Christmas lights.

But the big climax comes when Murray steps up with an air of steely determination, unzips his jeans, yanks them down, and flashes the audience his holiday-themed boxer-briefs, with the word “Naughty Elf” plastered across his butt in sparkly letters. (This doesn’t actually make much sense, because while elves work for Santa, it’s the children getting presents who are deemed “naughty” or “nice.” But I digress.)

It’s a very nice butt, and Murray should be proud of it. There are a few more saucy dance numbers in the film, but it’s hard to top this particular display of Christmas magic. In the words of Tiny Tim: God bless, everyone.
