‘The Sex Symbol of the South': Norman Reedus on the Cover of ‘Men’s Fitness’
Women drool over Norman Reedus. Men, too, drool over Norman Reedus. "The Walking Dead" star shared his thoughts about Daryl Dixon, Reedus' personal style and diet training.
Norman Reedus is the cover guy of "Men's Fitness'" December 2013 issue.
He talked to the magazine's Josh Dean about his personal style statement. Reedus wondered if he had any. But, he does have a style to flaunt. Old punk rock T-shirts, jeans, Ray-Bans, work boots are what define his style statement. As a matter of fact, this has been his style since high school. Pretty, old school.
Reedus also shared about his character, the iconic Daryl Dixon. "He's honest and he's awkward. He always fights because he's always had his back against the wall. There's a vulnerability and honesty that I like," Reedus on Daryl Dixon.

Muscles at the right places. When his character Daryl Dixon wields his crossbow to shoot the enemy, a girl somewhere faints. Oh boy, those biceps! *faints*
He follows a strict diet regime with no sugar, breads or pasta. Reedus swims a lot. He keeps a check on what he consumes. He runs.
This is what Josh Dean of "Men's Fitness" wrote about him.
"Norman was a genuinely nice, normal-seeming guy, which isn't all that typical of big stars. And I think based on The Walking Dead's massive following, it's fair to say that he is now a massive star. When I met him on set, he'd just arrived on his motorcycle and seemed thrilled to talk about the show and his life, to the extent that he ran way over time, and producers had to come looking for him to take him back to rehearsals. He's a pretty glib, funny guy who got super-famous late, so he's not spoiled and Hollywood-y. He also has some good and funny perspective about the fact that women kind of obsess over him. The dude is like the sex symbol of the south, I think."
