Cooper Koch’s insane body is on full display in Calvin Klein’s sizzling new campaign.

On 13 May, the fashion house left fans ‘falling out of their chairs’ as they unveiled a series of underwear-clad shots featuring the actor feeling the heat in their signature summer essentials and cotton classics.

In an exclusive interview with Esquire, Koch reflected on the “really fun and exhausting” shoot, during which he was accompanied by a personal trainer who had him “lifting weights and doing push-ups and working out the entire day to stay pumped-up.”

“I’d never really had that experience before, so I was tired by the end of the day, but ultimately it was so, so fun,” said the star. “The sets were amazing. Mert Alas, the photographer, was so collaborative and had such great ideas, and we had so many laughs, and I just felt so grateful to be there the whole time.”

Koch shared that Madonna tracks helped keep his energy high throughout the day.

“And then at a certain point, there was water that came into play, so then all of a sudden I was soaking wet, which woke me up,” he joked. “That was really fun. It was just constantly changing environments and changing set-ups, and they let me look at some of the photos too as we were going, so that kept me excited to try new stuff.”

Koch skyrocketed to fame last year with his breakout role as Erik Menendez in the second season of Ryan Murphy’s crime anthology series Monsters. His performance, especially the one-take fifth episode, ‘The Hurt Man’, earned widespread critical acclaim and a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actor in a Miniseries or Television Film.

The actor, whose previous credits include the cult horror films Swallowed and They/Them (2022), opened up to Esquire about his “intense” and “quick” rise to fame. He said that “other people’s perception of you can sometimes affect your own perception of yourself, which has been a difficult journey.”

“I think I’m still trying to navigate that, and I’m still adjusting to the newness of my life now,” he explained. “But I have such great people around me. I’m really close with my family, I have an amazing partner, my team is really supportive, and so I have a lot of great people to lean on.

“It’s a big adjustment, but ultimately, I’ve had so many great experiences. I’ve met so many amazing people, new friends, and I’m so grateful for everything that’s happened. I look forward to the next thing.”

The Drag Race franchise has introduced a new Pit Crew member, and fans are going wild.

On 9 May, All Stars 10 finally made its highly anticipated premiere on Paramount Plus in the US and WOW Presents Plus in the UK.

Unlike past entries, the new season features 18 queens competing for the crown, $200,000 and a coveted spot in the Drag Race Hall of Fame instead of the usual 12.

The fierce lineup is as follows: Acid Betty (season 8), Aja (season 9, All Stars 3), Alyssa Hunter (season 14), Bosco (season 14), Cynthia Lee Fontaine (season 8, 9), Daya Betty (season 14), Deja Skye (season 14), Denali (season 13) and Ginger Minj (season 7, All Stars 2, 6).

More gag-worthy star power incoming: Irene the Alien (season 15), Jorgeous (season 14, All Stars 9), Kerri Colby (season 14), Lydia B Kollins (season 17), Mistress Isabelle Brooks (season 15), Nicole Paige Brooks (season 2), Olivia Lux (season 13), Phoenix (season 3) and Tina Burner (season 13).

While the double premiere brought back a slew of fan-favourite queens, it also introduced viewers to a brand new Pit Crew member, Manuel Kornisuik.

The handsome hunk made his first appearance – alongside veterans Bryce and Bruno – in episode two during the Front Roll mini-challenge.

Of course, it didn’t take long for viewers to flock to social media to share their hilarious and relatable reactions to Manuel.

“Good god. I wonder how does it feel to look like that?” one person on Reddit wrote.

Another viewer commented: “He made me look away from Bruno for a split second.”

A third person wrote: “Hey Manuel… I’m so Into You.”

While Manuel recently debuted in the Drag Race world, he is no stranger to the limelight.

Hailing from Argentina, the dreamy talent has curated a successful career as a model and social media personality, amassing nearly 300,000 followers on Instagram alone.

He has also flexed his acting chops in the 2023 LGBTQ+ film The Winner Takes It All.

Lastly, Manuel has crafted a lane in the music sphere as an emerging singer-songwriter, going by the stage name Manúk.

In a January interview with DAMAN Magazine, the handsome talent opened up about his career journey and passion for the arts.

“I enjoy any artistic expression, It’s super different, and you get to know yourself from various angles. However, music has always been a deep passion of mine. It brings me immense joy,” he told the publication.

We can’t wait to see more of Manuel in All Stars 10 and the wider Drag Race franchise.

Striking action sequences, beloved heroes and gratuitous male nudity is crucial for every sci-fi series, and thankfully, it looks like the new season Foundation will deliver on all fronts.

Due for release 11 July on Apple TV+, season three will be set 152 years after the events of its predecessor, where “The Foundation has become increasingly established far beyond its humble beginnings while the Cleonic Dynasty’s Empire has dwindled”.

“As both of these galactic powers forge an uneasy alliance, a threat to the entire galaxy appears in the fearsome form of a warlord known as “The Mule” whose sights are set on ruling the universe by use of physical and military force, as well as mind control,” reads the official synopsis.

“It’s anyone’s guess who will win, who will lose, who will live and who will die as Hari Seldon, Gaal Dornick, the Cleons and Demerzel play a potentially deadly game of intergalactic chess.”

Apple TV+ has just launched the first official trailer, as well as the first set of images. In one, Lee Pace reprises his role as the villainous yet dashing Brother Day, flaunting chiseled abs, a full beard and flowing locks, all barely concealed by a modest robe.

The Emmy-nominated actor, who is openly gay, hasn’t been shy about taking his kit off in the series, memorably documenting his fitness journey with a shirtless workout video in December 2023. Like we said above, gratuitous male nudity is… encouraged.

Foundation season three will also see the return of Jared Harris as Hari Seldon, Lou Llobell as Gaal Dornick, Leah Harvey as Salvor Hardin, Laura Birn as Demerzel, Terrence Mann as Brother Dusk and Cassian Bilton as Brother Dawn.

New cast members include Cherry Jones as Foundation Ambassador Quent, Brandon P. Bell as Han Pritcher, Synnøve Karlsen as Batya Mallow, Cody Fern as Toran Mallow, Tómas Lemarquis as Magnifico Giganticus, Alexander Siddig as Dr. Ebling Mis, Pilou Asbæk as The Mule (replacing Mikael Persbrant) and Troy Kotsur as Preem Palver.

The first season of Foundation received mixed reviews from fans and critics, while its follow-up was universally lauded. Season three launches 11 July on Apple TV+, with following episodes to air weekly until 12 September.

Watch the first trailer below.

Orville Peck‘s latest thirst-trap has been declared the “hottest photo to ever exist”.

On Sunday (4 May), the country superstar shared a photo dump on Instagram capturing moments from his time on Broadway, where he’s currently starring as the Emcee in Cabaret.

Peck opened the photo dump with a cheeky shot of himself lounging in a chair wearing nothing but tartan shorts (or perhaps long boxers), his bare chest, legs, and feet fully on display. Notably absent was his signature mask—replaced instead by a low-slung baseball cap that partially obscured his eyes.

The post drew flirty reactions from a host of queer stars including Detox, Dexter Mayfield, Froy Gutierrez, Gunnar Montana, Heidi N Closet, Kerri Colby, Kylie Sonique Love, Lana Ja’Rae and Max Emerson.

On X/Twitter, a user hailing the photo as “the hottest” to “ever exist” went viral, resulting in responses like, “I would do things to him that even David Attenborough hasn’t seen in the wild” and “I want his Orville Pecker.”

Check out the dump below.

In Cabaret, Peck is joined by Eva Noblezada as Sally Bowles, Calvin Leon Smith as Clifford Bradshaw, Ellen Harvey as Fraulein Scheinder, Steven Skybell as Herr Schultz, Michelle Aravena as Fraulein Kost/Fritzie and Henry Gottfried as Ernst Ludwig.

In a recent interview with Johnny Sibilly on Logo’s YouTube series Spill, Peck opened up about taking on the legendary Emcee role, revealing that he’s been dreaming of this moment since he was a kid.

“It’s always been a role I wanted to play since I was little and doing theatre. It’s actually crazy. I’ve been keeping journals since I was seven years old, and they are very like, ‘today I did this’ type of journals,” he said.

“When I found out the news that I was cast, I remember a journal entry–– I went through all these journals from around 13/14, and I found the journal entry and [it said], ‘One day, I wish I can play the Emcee on Broadway.’ Isn’t that crazy?”

Peck serves as Cabaret’s new Emcee from 31 March to 20 July.

The first full-length trailer has arrived for Overcompensating, starring Benito Skinner as a closeted jock navigating university life.

Also created and written by the former GAY TIMES cover star, the upcoming Prime Video series chronicles the “wild, chaotic journey of Benny,” a former football player and homecoming king coming to terms with his sexuality.

He becomes “fast friends” with Carmen (Wallay Barram), a “high school outsider on a mission to fit in at all costs”.

The official synopsis continues: “With guidance from Benny’s older sister (Mary Beth Barone) and her campus-legend boyfriend (Adam DiMarco), Benny and Carmen juggle horrible hookups, flavoured vodka, and fake IDs.

“Deeply funny and personal, the show explores the lengths to which we all overcompensate while on the path to finding out who we really are.”

The trailer builds on the teaser, showing Benny as he attempts to have sex with Carmen, fantasises about fellow student Miles (Rish Shah), and hooks up with a character played by The White Lotus star Lukas Gage.

It also reveals additional guest stars including Megan Fox (Jennifer’s Body), Matt Rogers (No Good Deed), Bowen Yang (The Wedding Banquet), James Van Der Beek (Don’t Trust the B—- in Apartment 23), Didi Conn (Shelter), Rachel Matthews (Upgraded), Danielle Perez (The Night Agent), and TikTok stars Boman Martinez-Reid and Yasmine Sahid.

Also joining the cast are Holmes, Corteon Moore, Owen Thiele, Nell Verlaque, Tomaso Sanelli, Andrea Martin, Connie Britton, Kyle MacLachlan, Kaia Gerber, Julia Shiplett, Tommy Do, Alexandra Beaton, Claire Qute, Elias Azimi, Maddie Phillips and Charli XCX.

The brat singer also serves as an executive producer and executive music producer.

Produced by A24, Strong Baby, and Amazon MGM Studios, Overcompensating premieres all eight episodes on 15 May on Prime Video.

Robert Irwin is temporarily stepping away from the Australia Zoo to step into the ballroom stage spotlight.  

On 22 April, the Dancing With the Stars team announced that the beloved wildlife conservationist would compete in the show’s upcoming 34th season during Disney Entertainment Television’s Get Real Event.

The exciting moment also included a surprise appearance from Irwin, who ditched his shirt in favour of a boa constrictor named Priscilla.

“I cannot tell you what a privilege, what an honour it is to be joining this season,” the 21-year-old zookeeper exclaimed on stage.

Irwin went on to shout out his older sister Bindi – who came in first place on Dancing With the Stars season 21 – before adding: “I said, ‘One day, that’s gonna be me.’ And now, that dream is a reality and I am over the moon. Let’s do this!”

As of writing, Irwin’s partner and the other celebrity contestants are being kept under wraps.

Since the news was released, fans have flocked to social media to celebrate Irwin’s new journey and his latest shirtless appearance with supportive and thirsty messages.

One fan on X/Twitter wrote: “I NEED TO BE IN THE CROWD.”

Another person tweeted: “Damn @RobertIrwin just teasing us gays now lol.”

A third fan added: “I LOVE THIS FOR HIM SO MUCH. He’s going to be so good at the Hollywood thing. Already killing it. Perfect intro. I only ever watch for like one person every season and Steve’s son is my first round draft pick this season.”

Irwin also received support from his sister, who celebrated the news in a heartfelt post on her Instagram.

“Robert, you are going to absolutely shine in the ballroom. I wish I could express the magnitude of how proud I am of you and everything you have achieved,” she wrote.  

“Can’t wait to cheer you on each week as you inspire so many with your strength, kindness and determination. Here’s to an extraordinary journey ahead.”

Irwin’s Dancing With the Stars announcement comes a few weeks after he broke the internet with his steamy underwear campaign for Bonds, in which he posed scantily-clad in nature with various animals.

At the time, the wildlife photographer told PEOPLE: “I mean, I’ve spent my life wrangling crocs and snakes and rescuing animals. And so to feature a little slice of that excitement in this new campaign, mate, it has been so much fun. I mean, I’m surrounded by spiders and snakes except [this time] I’m in my undies. That’s the only difference.”

Five days later, Irwin—son of the late Steve Irwin—opened up about the importance of “wellness and fitness” in his life with an Instagram carousel.

The post featured a behind-the-scenes video of him working out on the set of his photoshoot, along with several shirtless shots.

“One of the things that got me excited to be part of my recent Bond’s shoot was that it gave me a real goal to strive toward. I wanted to feel my best to represent Australia!” he wrote.

“Life is so busy right now, but there is never a perfect time to get into better shape (and I’m not just talking physical shape!!!). There isn’t one single formula to follow. I reckon the most important thing is not to compare yourself to anyone else, just keep trying to be the best version of YOU. Listen to your body, keep moving and improving.”

The White Lotus star Walton Goggins exudes ripped DILF energy in his latest photoshoot.

For Cultured Magazine’s second annual Cult100 issue, photographer Sinna Nasseri captured the Fallout star embracing the sunny landscape of Santa Monica, California, while wearing outfits from Celine and Valentino.

In addition to delivering high-fashion moments, the spread included several eye-popping shots of Goggins in a pair of yellow Speedos, highlighting his impressive physique and leaving little to the imagination.

Of course, the photos resulted in thousands of thirsty comments from fans on social media, with one X/Twitter user writing: “HIM CLUTCHING IT! Damnnn!

“I need to bounce on his Walton Hoggins,” tweeted another, while a third wrote: “Pedro Pascal, Oscar Isaac and this slutty devil all in a room with me and no others PLZZZ.”

More hilarious and relatable reactions incoming: “These men must stop i have so many daddy issues to go around”; “I hope Walton Goggins is having a phenomenal day“; “I need to Walton his Goggins IMMEDIATELY” “Currently thinking about how large Walton Goggins hands are.”

In Goggins’ accompanying interview, the beloved talent reflected on his journey in Hollywood, including his unconventional approach to acting.

“If I had to call it something, it would be “reverence.” It’s not like I’m doing anything new – plenty of people I admire do it. It’s not method, it’s not ‘a way.’ I believe storytelling is a kind of religion,” he explained to the Fallout director.

“It’s its own god. I wouldn’t wear sweats to church; I’d show up looking ready to be saved. In any spiritual practice, the posture is: “Whatever you have for me, I’m prepared to accept it.” I feel the same way about working in film.”

While Goggins thrives using his unique acting technique, not all of his acting peers understand, including one of his co-stars from The White Lotus season three.

“I’ll say this. Someone I worked with on The White Lotus didn’t fully understand my process. My character – Rick Hatchett – he’s isolated. So, during filming, I was isolated. I liked mirroring that, but it was emotionally difficult,” he explained to Nolan.

“Then, a few months into The White Lotus, Fallout premiered and started to take off. One day, this actor I was working with – nice guy, good actor – came up to me and said, ‘You’re brilliant in Fallout. Please tell me you had a good time making that.’ I just stared at him. Because he didn’t get it.

“I don’t care how good you are– if you don’t understand that there’s a world beyond the script, if you don’t give yourself over to it, then you’re missing something profound in this world. I said, ‘No. I play a guy who’s lived for 200 years and seen the worst of humanity. Every day was fucking horrible.’ He just stared back at me like, ‘Okay, wow.’

Goggin’s stripped-down Cultured Magazine shoot comes off the heels of the dramatic conclusion of The White Lotus season three.

In the latest entry of the hit HBO dark comedy, the Justified: City Primaeval star played Rick Hatchett, who travelled to The White Lotus Thailand resort with his girlfriend Chelsea (Aimee Lou Wood) for a couple’s getaway

However, as the season progresses, it’s revealed that Rick travelled to Thailand to track down and kill his father’s murderer, Jim Hollinger.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t end well for Goggin’s character, who inadvertently gets Chelsea killed after he guns down Jim, his actual father. He then dies following a shootout with authorities.

Taylor Napier has turned up the heat in a steamy new photoshoot.

In a new black-and-white spread for Behind the Blinds, photographed by Dean Ryan McDaid, The Wheel of Time star displays his showstopping good looks and incredible hair in a series of stunning shots.

In one snapshot, Napier is sitting in a chair, wearing an unbuttoned jumpsuit, cowboy boots, and glasses.

Another photo showcases the heartthrob wearing a tight cardigan that highlights his bulging biceps and boxers that expose his fit legs.

The Behind the Blinds shoot also included several captivating snapshots of Napier shirtless.

Of course, the photos resulted in many fans leaving thirsty messages in the 35-year-old’s Instagram comment section.

“Styling, photography, grooming, him…everything fantastic!” one person wrote, while another fan commented, “Sexiest Warder award goes to.”

Napier’s recent shoot comes a few weeks after his hit Prime Video series The Wheel Time made its highly anticipated return for season three.

The official synopsis reads: “After defeating Ishamael at the end of season two, Rand reunites with his friends at Falme and is declared the Dragon Reborn. But in season three, the threats against the Light are multiplying.

“The White Tower stands divided, the Black Ajah run free, old enemies return to the Two Rivers, and the remaining Forsaken are in hot pursuit of the Dragon… including Lanfear, whose relationship with Rand will mark a crucial choice between Light and Dark for them both.”

In the new batch of episodes, Napier reprises his role as Maksim, the fierce, dependable and multifaceted Warder who is in a committed relationship with Alanna (Priyanka Bose), an Aes Sedai of the Green Ajah, and Ihvon (Emmanuel Imani/Anthony Kaye), a fellow Warder.

Back in March, the Wreck star opened up to GAY TIMES about all things The Wheel of Time, including his character’s groundbreaking romantic storyline.

“When I came on board, I was excited to do this because I haven’t seen this type of relationship in fantasy before. I mean, this was 2019 when I joined the show, so it had been a while. There had been some little hints at it in other places, but nothing quite as explicit and intentional as what we’re doing here,” he explained.

“The thing that really makes it stand out for me, especially in a fantasy world like The Wheel of Time, is that we’re treated just the same. It’s not just with our characters, but with other queer characters on the show as well.

A post shared by Taylor Napier (@taylornapier89)

“Ultimately, I think this is groundbreaking for fantasy. High fantasy, in particular, has a poor track record with queer characters—especially queer men. They’re often disregarded or portrayed in extreme ways, sometimes with their entire families being murdered because of their sexuality.

What we’ve done here is pretty cool: we’ve incorporated queer and polyamorous characters without making it a big deal. It’s just who they are, and I think that’s wonderful in a fantasy space.

Dylan Efron refuses to let fans breathe with his new brand collaboration, possibly his hottest to date.

On 12 April, The Traitors star blessed fans with an inside look into his skincare routine with the help of personal care and beauty retail store Sephora.

In the steamy video, Efron kicks off his post-shower routine by putting on Clarins Double Serum Anti-Aging + Anti-Wrinkle Serum Light.

“I’ll be honest, I’ve never really been into skincare. I’ve actually been pretty rough on my face over the years. But recently, I’ve decided to change that,” the handsome hunk says in a voice-over.

“I’ve been using the new Clarins Double Serum Light for about two months now. I’m sold on the anti-ageing benefits, and I’m already seeing a difference. It uses plants and active molecules, leaving my skin smoother, more hydrated and just healthy.”

Of course, Efron leaves little to the imagination, with the reality TV star showing off his impressive physique and dreamy tattoos while wearing nothing but a low-hanging towel.

Unsurprisingly, Efron’s collaboration resulted in thirsty reactions from his followers, with one person commenting: “This is better than any Calvin Klein campaigns combined.”

A second fan joked, “I didn’t hear not one word he said…” while a third person added, “adding everything in this video to my cart, and I mean everything.”

Efron’s hot Sephora collaboration comes a week after he sent pop culture enthusiasts into a thirst-fueled frenzy with his carousel of shirtless images.

In the post, the social media personality included photos of him taking part in what looks to be a mountain excursion. It also featured jaw-dropping selfies of Efron shirtless on set.

The carousel of photos accumulated 125k likes and various thirsty responses from notable LGBTQIA+ stars, allies and Efron’s The Traitors co-stars, such as Aaron Diaz, Chanel Ayan, Chrishell Stause, Dorit Kemsley, Orville Peck, Sam Asghari, Sherri Shepherd, Taylor Lautner and Toni Mahfud.

“I think your abs, have abs,” said Stause, while Kemsley wrote, “It’s the proud look on your face for me! Oh, and the abs are also [fire emoji].”

Meanwhile, Peck simply commented, “Oh!” and Lautner urged him to “give a warning, please,”

Tom Daley latest social media post featured a cheeky easter egg for fans.

On 9 April, the former Olympic athlete treated his 3.9 million Instagram followers to an adorable life update featuring his husband, Dustin Lance Black, and their two children, Robbie and Phoenix.

While Daley’s carousel of photos featured wholesome photos of their family trip to Edinburgh, Scotland, it also included some thirsty content.

For the post’s final picture, a sweaty Daley is shown lifting weights while wearing a tight pair of red underwear briefs.

Unsurprisingly, the fans flocked to the comment section to share their hilarious and feral reactions.

One person joked, “That last slide made me stop thinking about Tariffs,” while another fan commented, “Didn’t know how much I needed that last pic.”

A third fan added: “Thank you for gracing us with your last photo.”

Daley’s latest social media post comes a few weeks after he sent fans into a frenzy with his try-on haul video.

In the video, Daley presents ten unique “crochet outfits,” featuring a red and orange sweater, a short knitted vest, and a vibrant jumper with exceptionally long sleeves. Of course, there’s a lot of skin on show as he alternates between outfits.

Since Daley retired from diving, he has continued to make waves in the design sphere, having recently introduced The Knotty List, a creative project where he uses his knitting skills to create bespoke garments for high-profile clients in the entertainment industry.

Notable examples include custom designs for stars like Sharon Stone, who lauded Daley’s work publicly.
