When Nadya Suleman announced that she has a boyfriend, many wondered what 23 year-old bodybuilder Frankie Grageda could possibly have in common with a middle-aged, celibate mother of 14. Turns out the unlikely couple shares one important quality in common: a weird, desperate desire to be famous.

Prior to hooking up with Octo, Frankie G (as he likes to be called) appeared on a reality show called Who Wants To Date a Comedian?, which apparently aired for 2 seasons in certain parts of the Midwest and Mars. Frankie – who identified himself as an EMT and part-time exotic dancer – competed with two other dudes to win a date with a comedienne named Marla Schultz. He won, but dropped Schultz as soon as the cameras were turned off.

While that doesn’t necessarily mean that Frankie is dating Nadya just for the spotlight, it certainly doesn’t bode well for the future of their relationship. Of course, neither does the fact that she’s a celibate aspiring porn star who’s passed a small army through her vadge.
