Trailblazer
































John Paul Jones
DEJORIA


























The story of the American Dream is often told through

fictional stories, a romanticized ideal that anyone

can make it in the land of the free. There are multiple


books written about this ideal, movies squarely based

around characters gunning for that dream, yet one

person that has fully experienced the ups and downs

of living the American Dream is John Paul DeJoria. A

man who was twice homeless and went on to become a


multi-billionaire, a man who suffered loss and utilized

that pain and turned it into success. Much like the

storybooks and movies based on the American Dream,

it’s the journey that is the most fascinating and the story

of a once-homeless single father becoming a world-


renowned entrepreneur and philanthropist is what

makes John Paul DeJoria a true trailblazer.

Film & Modeling


career started & a


star was born.



SHOOTING FOR FHM
I was so excited while shooting for FHM, and I
was even more thrilled regarding the Cover &
acceptance.


SOMETHING SURPRISING.
Most find surprising that I am an undercover

single lifestyle and for almost 13 years now.



HOW PEOPLE DESCRIBE ME.
I am easily described as a true Scorpio with a
passion of 1000% . Loyal, honest, loving, and not
one to mess with.


MY HOBBIES.
Some of my hobbies include; Reading, weight
training, traveling, and I love sports cars.


TURN ON.
My biggest turn on is when a guy has great hygiene,
when I can turn a tough guy into a lovable teddy
bear, and financial security of course.


TURN OFF.
Poor hygiene, bad breath, dishonesty, & laziness.


MY PERFECT DATE.
My perfect date would start with shopping for the
wardrobe prior, including sexy lingerie. Having
dinner prepared by a private chef and served while
seated on a beautiful rooftop overlooking the ocean.


MODELLING CHALLENGES.

My biggest challenge as a model so far is
manipulation of my physique according to my goals
throughout the year.


LAST WORDS.
I am honored to be an FHM cover model and
looking forward to sharing more about my history
in upcoming issues and online social media. It’s
important for me that my fans & readers to know
that I live everyday life just like they do with the
same stressors and situations.

#LH44VR46

In a historic moment for both Lewis Hamilton

and Valentino Rossi, and their respective sports,

the pair completed an unprecedented track
day as each swapped machinery recently at the


Circuit Ricardo Tormo.
Valentino Rossi drove The Mercedes-AMG F1 W08 EQ
Power+, a car that won the 2017 FIA Formula One™ World
Championship with Mercedes-AMG Petronas Motorsport
at the hands of Lewis Hamilton, whilst Lewis rode the 2019
Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP YZR-M1 bike that only weeks
earlier had been piloted by Valentino at the very same circuit.
The significance of the occasion was not lost on either Lewis
or Valentino who have made no secret of their admiration and

respect for each other in recent years. Acting as mentors for
one another, the pair were able to complete multiple runs on
each other’s machinery and share insights and learnings about


each other’s craft.

#LH44VR46























































































The six-time Formula One

World Champion, Lewis

Hamilton:

“It’s so awesome to see a legend like Valentino

in the car. I’m excited for him, for discovering
the car for the first time. Reminds me of my
first time in a F1 car. When you see all the
team around you, it’s just a different animal.”
Of his time out on track riding the Yamaha
YZR-M1 with Rossi he added, “It was so cool
to be out on track and see Valentino ahead of


me on the same bike.”



#LH44VR46

For the nine-time MotoGP World
Champion, Valentino Rossi:


“I was a big fan of Lewis’ before but now I am even
more. We had a fantastic day where the two top
classes of motorsports not only met but worked
together. I felt like a real F1 driver for a day. I didn’t
want the day to end. “I also rode the YZR-M1 on
track with Lewis. It was a proud moment for the
team to share our passion with him. Technically,
Valencia is a hard track and today was windy so at
one point I thought it would be difficult for Lewis
to continue, but he was brilliant on the bike and his
position on the M1 was great. I think he had loads of
fun which is the main thing.”

Entertainment





2019 was an amazing year for series, from Netflix’s The

Witcher to Amazon Prime’s The Boys to Disney +’s
The Mandalorian. With such a huge variety of amazing

shows catering for every need, will 2020 live up to the

high standards of last year? These twelve shows might
just make 2020 the best year ever for series.

balance shaft to eliminate the vibrations that
notoriously entail increases in weight and power
absorption. In addition to this primary benefit,
which is extremely important for the reliability
and mechanical efficiency of an engine that
reaches rotation speeds greater than 14,000 rpm,
there are others that make the configuration
chosenbyDucatithemosttechnicallyrefined.


Its compactness
Compared to a classic in-line four-cylinder, the
lateral compactness of the V-engine allows greater
centralization of the masses and makes it possible
to limit the weight on the front end of the bike.
Furthermore, the shorter crankshaft generates a
smaller gyroscopic effect. All these aspects have a
positive impact on the bike’s dynamics, helping to
make it light and fast when changing directions.
The large space available between the V of the
cylinders made it possible to position the water
pump and have a large volume airbox (12.8 liters) to
allowtheDesmosediciStradaletobreathebetter.


Integration of engine and chassis
The optimal integration of engine and chassis is a

fundamental concept behind every one of Ducati’s
projects. That is why the Desmosedici Stradale
was developed to be mounted and rotated
backwards just like the Ducati MotoGP engines.
This format optimizes weight distribution and
shifts the swinging arm pivot forwards as much as
possible. The Desmosedici Stradale was also
designed to be a structural element of the frame.
Connections to the main frame were added to the
front of the upper casing and in the head of the rear
bank. The engine block also acts as a connection
for the rear suspension and swinging arm.

Complete titanium exhaust assembly

Made exclusively by Akrapovič with the Ducati experience, it is the most
advanced racing assembly available on the market. Each section of the system
is manufactured in a special titanium alloy that is both lightweight and
resistant to high temperatures, allowing for an overall reduction in the bike’s
weight. Once installed on the bike, the exhaust dramatically increases the
already excellent weight-to-power ratio of the Panigale, for breathtaking
accelerations and stretches. Thanks to its experience, Ducati Corse has
developed the qualities of the motorcycle and exhaust to their maximum
levels to create a perfect synergy, specifically for this exhaust, recalibrating
the many and fundamental electronic aids: DTC, DWC, DPL and Slide on
demand.


Dry clutch kit
Just like in MotoGP, where the only thing that matters is utmost
performance, the dry clutch is made available for the other V4 models (it
comes standard on the Panigale V4 R). This is an STM EVO-SBK clutch made
from billet aluminum with housing and a 48-tooth plate pack. The plates are

9 driven and 9 lined with a diameter of 138 mm. When racing on the track
there are important benefits in ease of handling. Specifically, the dry clutch
ensures a more effective slipper function, even during the most aggressive
downshifts, and greater fluidity during all “off-throttle” stages. In addition,
the “mechanical” engine brake level can be customized by choosing a
different secondary spring from those available in the catalog.
Other important advantages are the absence of resistance from the engine oil
and cleaner oil since the plate wear dust is not conveyed into the lubrication
circuit. The racing character of the dry clutch is an exciting added benefit for
themostpassionateDucatistasandsportsbikeenthusiasts.


Magnesium rims
The unmatched lightweight performance of forged magnesium meets style
– a signature 9-spoke design that combines class, high performance and
weight saving. Be aware though, this set of rims is approved for single-seat
useonly.


The handgrips
Inspired by the racing world, these handgrips ensure an excellent grip in
every riding situation and are built to avoid accidental slipping of the hand -
andtoreducethevibrationsfelt.


Carbon tank cover
This is a splendid detail that embellishes the front of the new Panigale V4
tank in a way that only carbon fiber can. The finishing and lines of this

accessory are perfectly integrated into the racing look of the latest bike made
atBorgoPanigale.

Adjustable rider footpegs in aluminum

These are developed thanks to the experience of Ducati Corse and the skillful
productive care of Rizoma. They’re made of a high-quality anodized
aluminum alloy that maintains its original appearance over time. They are
adjustable in six positions allowing the rider to find the position that best
suits their build and riding style. These footpegs are also equipped with
fold-away brake and gearchange pedals to minimize the risk of breakage in
the event of a slip. They use the standard DQS, which can be configured both
as a traditional shift and as a reversed/racing shift which makes them an
essential accessory for the most demanding riders.
