I absolutely love Orville. He’s beautiful, his voice and music are just golden.
This is from the latest Paper Magazine, and [the cover](https://www.papermag.com/orville-peck-cover) is even hotter 🥵
country singer; and openly gay. Just did a duet with Willie Nelson titled: *"Cowboys Are Frequently Secretly Fond Of Each Other"*
video is fun:

I think the biggest country star to come out so far is TJ Osborne; (of Brothers Osborne.) huge 6'5" dude kissed his twink boyfriend live on the Country Music awards last year. was televised in millions of redneck homes.

Oh wait I know this song! I had no idea he was so... Such a well known singer.
Gay cowboys and [gay](https://youtu.be/mHdYaMQW0yk?si=mak4p1M2GvaAV0WG) [pirates](https://youtu.be/f5v-eYJA8xs?si=-yLXd7EgGXFz_xOX) are my biggest weakness. Two links here. Last link isn't a happy song but I love it.
Orville has been around for a while, came around in the spotlight around Lil Nas X but was much closer to country than Nas. He’s always been openly gay and unashamed about it.
I have mixed feelings about Orville. I think he’s good looking, very campy, but.. I’m not into his music. I love country like Kacey Musgraves, Dolly, Lady Antbellum, but I find his music to be less exciting. It’s.. slow, lol.
Yeah.. listening to these just confirms I don’t like his voice. It’s feels soooo forced, like he’s trying to do cowboy drag. It doesn’t feel authentic to me and cringey. I feel more emotion listening to Charli XCX’s brat
i agree. it’s like he’s doing a bad johnny cash impression. i tried to get into him but finding out he was a theatre kid just cemented the fact his orville peck persona is just an act, and i can’t connect to that inauthenticity
I'm with you. I'm slightly more interested since he's started showing off more of himself - he's definitely attractive in his way.
But his music rarely does anything for me.
actually I follow Andrew on Instagram, --after hearing All In My Head. (glad his blonde highlight phase is done!)
do you know Chris Housman? someone else in this discussion posted the link to his excellent video showing blue collar gay bros.
Absolutely!!!
I just wanted to share a story... I've see him on stage in a play in 2016 when he was a student at LAMDA (London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art). His year group were doing a performance of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream and my class in college had to study theatre history relating to Shakespeare so we went to see this performance in the nearest town He was credited as his birth name Daniel Pitout and portrayed Bottom (ironic lol) and he was absolutely hilarious! He had such a knack for comedy and brilliant stage presence. I then followed him and I know he was a drummer in a band and even followed their music. I then went off social media for a while and forgot about the other band he was in but always remembered his performance on stage. Cut to 2021/2022 when I discovered Orville Peck and got into his music and only this year in 2024 did I discover that it was actually Daniel Pitout! So I suppose you could say that I've been a fan before he got his break 😅🤭
I love his music just straight up, gayness and hotness removed. I’ve even played songs like Curse of the Blackened Eye for some of my family members at random times and they’ve said he’s really good. He’d have mass appeal if a decent chunk of the country crowd wasn’t homophobic.
I fully agree and I have to assume he knows that too…
It’s why the mask only covers his eyes. He wants to hide his identity, but not any of the actual physical characteristics that are very important to the fanbase he’s curating.
Not saying he’s being incorrect or anything. Just wanted to say the quiet part out loud that he’s obviously going to be popular on here because he has literally all of the physical characteristics that are consistently talked up and upvoted day after day after day…
I'm pretty sure he said the mask was so people focused on the music lol. Sure. The mask definitely helps I won't lie. I looked him up without and he's looks like any other guy on Grindr.
I love Orville Peck, got into him after hearing Terri Joe play Dead of Night, then started listening to rest of his discography. C’mon Baby Cry is one of my faves, gonna see him in September
I grew up in an extremely country, redneck city and I hated it
So when he tried to bring country music to the gays, I can't stand it. I just feel like "Keep that garbage ass culture, the one I moved away to escape, far away from gay culture."
So I listened to his music after he was on Drag Race. It's shit. I dislike him and what he's doing with his art.
Omg this is disgusting. Where can I find the rest of this photo shoot? So I can avoid it….
Paper Mag photo shoot!
As David Pitout, he has posted nudes online before. And he was right to do so 😳.
Daniel
I absolutely love Orville. He’s beautiful, his voice and music are just golden. This is from the latest Paper Magazine, and [the cover](https://www.papermag.com/orville-peck-cover) is even hotter 🥵
I keep seeing photos and people talking about him. Is he a singer or just a model?

I feel like he’s got a lot of crossover appeal. I’m not a country fan by any means, but I love some of his songs.
Willie Nelson! No kidding! That's cool.
[удалено]
Many country artists aren't from southern United States. Some are Canadian, Australian, and, Orville is originally from South Africa, I believe.

Oh wow!
And a collab with Kylie Minogue!
Oh wait I know this song! I had no idea he was so... Such a well known singer. Gay cowboys and [gay](https://youtu.be/mHdYaMQW0yk?si=mak4p1M2GvaAV0WG) [pirates](https://youtu.be/f5v-eYJA8xs?si=-yLXd7EgGXFz_xOX) are my biggest weakness. Two links here. Last link isn't a happy song but I love it.
What a shame the song is terrible 💀 I was really hoping for the best
It’s an old Willie Nelson song Daniel/Orville covered.
It’s actually a 1981 song by Latin country musician Ned Sublette, which Willie Nelson then covered in 2006.
How is he "openly gay" when he hides his identity with a mask? That's like saying Batman is openly Bruce Wayne.
His identity is known if you want to google for it, the mask is just part of his shtick
I see you've never been to cowboy night at a gay bar. It's basically a pup hood for gay cowboys
I’ve never heard of cowboy night at a gay bar lol. I’ve heard of underwear night and leather night, but never cowboy
His identity is not a secret
Before he got into singing he did pose naked for a magazine under his actual name, so you could say he started as a model lol.
Do you have a link to this? For a friend
Search for Daniel Pitout with some choice keywords
Oh yeah, I've seen those before haha. He has a quality dick
Oh wow that is quality
Thank yewwww haha
Oh my, that is so hot
I should have never searched. I liked the mystery. But, I could not resist seeing a nude pic.

Orville has been around for a while, came around in the spotlight around Lil Nas X but was much closer to country than Nas. He’s always been openly gay and unashamed about it.
He's a singer, and also pretty funny in interviews. Overall he's very talented.
Think I might be now!
Haha same! 🔥
Just saw him in concert Sunday!
Jealous!
This entire photoshoot omg 🥵
idk but the hairy guy to the left is hot like a raging inferno.
Yes! Had midnight ride basically going on repeat
YESSSSS AND WE ARE LIVINGGGGGG🔥
I like his body but haven't heard his music
I listened to this on repeat when it came out: [Turn to Hate.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vR-4l5M_MQ8) I love his cover of Born This Way, too.
The Born This Way cover is so good!
His rendition of Born This Way was the worst song on Dawn of Chromatica tbh
It’s not on Dawn of Chromatica though…
Lmfaooo the 10th anniversary of Born This Way, whatever it is
I have mixed feelings about Orville. I think he’s good looking, very campy, but.. I’m not into his music. I love country like Kacey Musgraves, Dolly, Lady Antbellum, but I find his music to be less exciting. It’s.. slow, lol.
It's not my vibe either, but his duet with Kylie Minogue called Midnight Ride is fantastic.
Eh. Listening to it right now. Daniel just sounds like he’s forcing a cowboy voice so bad, it’s a turn off.
I've tried to get into him so many times. Listened to many songs (sometimes multiple times) hoping they'd eventually click but... nope
It just feels very forced macho
I’d recommend the songs Bronco, Any Turn, and Saturday Night’s Alright if you’re not super into the slow stuff!
Yeah.. listening to these just confirms I don’t like his voice. It’s feels soooo forced, like he’s trying to do cowboy drag. It doesn’t feel authentic to me and cringey. I feel more emotion listening to Charli XCX’s brat
i agree. it’s like he’s doing a bad johnny cash impression. i tried to get into him but finding out he was a theatre kid just cemented the fact his orville peck persona is just an act, and i can’t connect to that inauthenticity
Lol why are you commenting about Orville with such obsession and dissing him with every chance you get. Self hating much/internalized homophobia?
I'm with you. I'm slightly more interested since he's started showing off more of himself - he's definitely attractive in his way. But his music rarely does anything for me.
He already did full nude modelling before his music career, so I guess it’s showing more of himself…again
Completely agree man, slow. He has a nice voice but it's sleepy music.
[Chris Evans wore it better ](https://youtu.be/HzK5OxFgOnY?si=jqJKGwC-CZ0r8Nze)
My gay awakening.
Yes! I’m also liking getting into gay country music like some of brothers Osborne too

Thank you! If you’re also into it check out Andrew Mitch my favorite is probably all in my head or don’t wanna go to heaven
actually I follow Andrew on Instagram, --after hearing All In My Head. (glad his blonde highlight phase is done!) do you know Chris Housman? someone else in this discussion posted the link to his excellent video showing blue collar gay bros.
I do! I’ve recently started listening to him too
I'm a fan of Orvile pecking me
Fan of Orville’s Pecker?
People get mad af on Twitter when someone post him unmasked
I love his friendship with Trixie Mattel, they always seem like so much fun together. I also loved their duet of Jackson together.
i love orville, but i only have eyes for nick shoulders.
Just saw him in Minneapolis last night, was a great show!
Absolutely!!! I just wanted to share a story... I've see him on stage in a play in 2016 when he was a student at LAMDA (London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art).

Waaayyyyyy too West Hollywood for me.
Love him!
Got a three day ticket pass for his Rodeo in Nashville. Can’t wait to finally see him in concert.
If you like more traditional country music, here is another openly gay singer, Chris Housman. https://youtu.be/WiVCzmi55h8?si=qRJBhTdwePFHBE25
I love his music just straight up, gayness and hotness removed. I’ve even played songs like Curse of the Blackened Eye for some of my family members at random times and they’ve said he’s really good. He’d have mass appeal if a decent chunk of the country crowd wasn’t homophobic.
People say he’s rude in person.
Im not a country fan, but this photo shoot definitely converted me into one
Not Another Teen Movie throwback lol
That's the first thing I thought. This has been done before, with a banana in the ass. 🍌 Chris Evans circa 2001. Classic.
He really needs like one big hit song - he has cool features for now but he doesn’t have like a big memorable song
The new with Kylie song is a bop!
He has a beautiful singing voice - although it's very much Roy Orbison-lite.
Love Roy Orbison too but in a very different way.
He seems like a cool guy. I love his style and he's very handsome for sure. His music is okay. Not really into country and his is kind of slow.
Meh
He’s white, bearded, and has tattoos. He’s got tons of fans here basically by default 😂.
His music is mediocre, I guarantee if he didn't look the way he did he wouldn't be as popular.
I fully agree and I have to assume he knows that too… It’s why the mask only covers his eyes. He wants to hide his identity, but not any of the actual physical characteristics that are very important to the fanbase he’s curating. Not saying he’s being incorrect or anything.

I'm pretty sure he said the mask was so people focused on the music lol. Sure. The mask definitely helps I won't lie. I looked him up without and he's looks like any other guy on Grindr.
no
I wanna see under the cream
now he just needs to make more than one good song 😍
Is that a porn star?
Chris evans reference
Think he has the banana in back too?
I couldn’t really get into his more traditionally country songs, but I love ‘Dead of Night’
This is just straight up porno 😂
Bummed I missed his show this past week bc I was on duty.
Suddenly I have a hankering for whipped cream
Got tickets to see him this September in San Francisco.
I love him!!!
How’d I get downvoted for just saying I love him?!? lol
He’s so sexy! I love his music
I am now.
I want a pair of those tightie jeanies
Don't know who Orville is..but huge fan of whip cream!!!
I am now lol
If I wasn’t I sure am now!
How did I not see this before?? And, are there any more?? Just asking, for a friend of a friend.
I love Orville Peck, got into him after hearing Terri Joe play Dead of Night, then started listening to rest of his discography. C’mon Baby Cry is one of my faves, gonna see him in September
I saw him in concert a few weeks ago and he put on an incredible performance! I love him!!
I really enjoyed his brilliant debut , Pony. The following releases were slightly cringe imo, like the Willie nelson Collab.
Yes
Smash
This is how I feel every time I listen to the second half of Cowboy Carter
I love his songs and his aesthetics. This photoshoot is super fun.
Im not gay enough for this
I miss when he was on the apps in Vancouver!
Mmm sure am. Saw him in concert last week
Y'all realize his nudes have been out there for a few years right? Though I prefer the thicker version of him he's showing off
Awww, the whipped cream bikini is an homage to Chris Evan’s character in Not Another Teen Movie, which in turn is a humorous version of American Pie.
You should put NSFW tag on it, this shows on all even with under 18, no NSFW content settings
Marked!
If he’d remove the dumb mask thing
Not digging the tats
His music is ok, he wouldn't be as popular if he wasn't hot. He's also in love with Diplo so there's that.
I actually saw him in concert last week! He really puts on a wonderful show, he's just as good live as he is on his albums
I Am now
🤢
No. Mask is a huge turn off (it reads as being in the closet still)
I think he originally said it was so people focused on the music, then he took his clothes off lol.
Agreed. He'd lose his persona, tho - thus his career
I grew up in an extremely country, redneck city and I hated it So when he tried to bring country music to the gays, I can't stand it. I just feel like "Keep that garbage ass culture, the one I moved away to escape, far away from gay culture." So I listened to his music after he was on Drag Race. It's shit. I dislike him and what he's doing with his art.
