Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte plans to move to Los Angeles after the London Games and make a splash in reality TV. There’s talk of his own reality series, and, of course, speculation that he would be a prime candidate for both “The Bachelor” or “Dancing With the Stars.” Lochte told “GMA” that his first choice would be “DWTS.” Michael Phelps is also interested in moving to the dance floor. We would love to see him go skinny-dipping on “The Bachelor.”

Ryan Lochte shows his support for breast cancer awareness at Sunday’s U.S. Olympic swimming trials. The t-shirt reads “stroke” on the back. Lochte, a former Florida Gator who still lives in Gainesville to train, loves the ladies too, according to a Busted Coverage blogger.

I’ve partied with him in Gainesville. The guy carried around a pitcher of Jager Bombs and was surrounded by hot chicks the entire time.”

With The Games starting in London in a month, it’s probably all work, no play for Lochte, the swimming headliner along with friendly rival Michael Phelps.
