Taylor Zakhar Perez left Gay Twitter in shambles as photos from his campaign as Lacoste's ambassador for intimate apparel went viral.
The 33-year-old star of the hit film "Red, White and Royal Blue" embraced his new role as the brand's newly named global underwear ambassador with smoldering still images and stunning videos that showed off Lacoste's briefs – and his own physique – to captivating effect.
People Magazine noted that the image "shows Perez leaning against a metal rail while standing shirtless on a balcony set against the artistic backdrops of Paris. He is wearing only a pair of white boxer-briefs with a thick green band with the brand's name. His toned abs are on display as he looks away from the camera with a relaxed expression on his face."
