Chatting to TMZ outside LAX airport, the actor broke down a recent Instagram post of him shirtless enjoying life to the max in a swimming pool.

The actor said that gay men are typically portrayed on the small and big screens as slim and shredded, leaving little to no room for LGBT+ people of different body types.

But he told the showbiz website that he’s living proof that queer folk come in all sizes and deserve visibility.

The 6’4″ model said: “There are a lot of shows that are showing queer stuff, but they don’t sexualise bigger gay men.

“Fat people on TV don’t sell toothpaste, fat people on TV don’t buy cars. Fat people on TV get colds, they get coughy, sneezing, itching, aching heads, they have to pay bills and get stressed out on TV. They’re not seen as something comfortable.

“Gay bigger people are invisible.”
