"It’s cool as s***," the Law & Order: Organized Crime star says in Men's Health's cover story about people noticing his butt. “The aspect of age comes into play as far as the cover of (this magazine) and how I feel about it. A friend of mine said, ‘Did you ever think in a million years you’d be on the cover of Men’s Health?’ I said, ‘Certainly not at age 60.'" Meloni admits he had no idea what "Zaddy" meant. “I just thought it was a cutie thing,” he says. Meloni also recounted his Law & Order: SVU exit after Season 12. “My thought was: Instead of 22 episodes, bring me back for nine episodes, or bring me back for 18 episodes," he says. "They literally came to me on a Thursday night and said, ‘This is the deal. We want the answer by tomorrow. It’s our way or no way,'” Meloni explained. “I don’t want to f*** around with you guys. This is what I want. If you can’t do it, that’s fine. Let’s figure out my exit.”
