Ryan Lochte is currently negotiating several deals to appear onscreen.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the diamond grill mouth-wearing swimming champion is considering several television offers including three different reality show ideas.

"I cannot tell you the exact shows, but two different reality show concepts have been offered and one additional is being discussed," Lochte's sports agent Erika Wright told The Hollywood Reporter.

Wright revealed that talk shows around the country are requesting to book him as a guest when he returns from the London Games.

The Olympic gold medalist is also pondering offers to create a clothing line and was asked to appear in a "FunnyOrDie" video by Will Ferrell.

According to the report, Lochte himself has been telling media in London that he would love to appear on "Dancing with the Stars" competing against US Olympic 2012 swimming teammate Michael Phelps.

In an exclusive interview with Ryan Seacrest on his radio show, Lochte announced plans to move to Los Angeles.

Fortune magazine reported that Lochte is expected to earn over $2 million this year. At present, Lochte has nine endorsement deals.

In an attempt to clean up his image and defuse the negative publicity surrounding his dating life, Lochte addressed his mother's comments about his preference for "one-night stands" on the TODAY show.

"She meant I go on a lot of dates," he replied. "She didn't mean anything negative. She's new to the whole media thing."

The rising star also sat down with Piers Morgan of CNN to give his own personal take on relationships.

"I like being in relationships...I want to give them my entire heart," he stated to Morgan.

The Olympic swimmer told TODAY that he is single and gave a brief description about the qualities he seeks in a girlfriend:

"She has to be fit and can make me laugh."

The Olympian recently attended the Speedo Athlete Celebration at Kensington Roof Gardens in London on August 6. He reportedly told reporters from E! News: "Yeah, I mean I definitely want a relationship. I want to give a certain someone my heart. I mean, I just gotta find the right girl."
